Tricks and tips for getting the best vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in Ocean Isle Beach. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Southport vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides have coupons for local shops and restaurants.

Selecting the best rental in the Southport area:

• Choose your vacation week and maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Cuckoos Nest I Ocean View 4 Bedroom Home with Heated Pool & Elevator! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the host before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine which bed configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.
• Does your group require specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• Note any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
