Tips and Tricks to get the very best Southport rental experience:

Finding your best deal:

• In the Southport area, The earlier you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are high season in Carolina Beach. Book your Southport rental home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many property management companies supply Southport area visitor guides which will include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• To start, have your family agree to dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Dog-friendly coastal cottage with short walk to the beach has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you reserve the home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges applied to your contract.
• If there's a certain Southport attraction you are crazy about, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips to have a great stay:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. text the host right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to stimulate new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
