Wilmington rental booking tips:

When to reserve a Southport rental & When to go:

• Summer is high season in the Southport area. To find the best rental home for your budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Southport attractions.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local tours and attractions.

How to pick the best vacation home in Wilmington:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Historic Ardmore House - 3br\/2ba downtown Wilmington has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before booking the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what is right for your family.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or might be applied to your agreement.

More considerations for your visit:

• Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out 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.
• Did you have a great time? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss 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 review.
