Booking the best Carolina Beach rental home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Southport rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Carolina Beach. To get the best rental within your budget, we highly recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Southport restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfectrental home:

• Start by choosing your vacation dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Great Ocean Views - right across the street from the beach! has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible online. If not, call the property owner before booking the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a specific Southport destination you crave, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the owner's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Upon arrival, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
