Rental property booking tips:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in Ocean Isle Beach. Booking your Southport vacation home in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Southport area travel guides which often include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Choose your vacation week and budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. OCEAN FRONT - West End Home @ OIB on the Sound and Sea! Private Pool has 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before you reserve the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to determine what is best for your group.
• If there's a particular Southport beach you crave, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• During arrival, document any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. 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 shopping?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to propel more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
