About this Property

• Sleeps 4
• 1 Bedrooms
• 1 Bathrooms
• Condo

I rent to a lot of repeat guests outside of Vacation Rental By Owner. Also own more than one condo. So Vacation Rental By Owner calendar is not always accurate. It takes about 24 hours to catch up on outside bookings. Email me for information on specials above. I am also on Facebook. This is such a cute one bedroom condo. Ocean view from your own private balcony. Pool right about back. Awesome decked beach
access on to the beach. Its less than 100 ft from the corner of our building. Smaller complex than most. Free parking at condo for one car. Possible complimentary parking near boardwalk at another property I own, also,for fireworks etc. No other owner can offer that. Tiki bar and restaurant across the street from condo. Restaurant has dining right over the ocean. No need to pay for restaurant parking. Just walk right over. Ideal place to relax and relax . More questions??? Just message Gail Longnecker on FB Wilmington NC if you like. My turnover days are Sunday and Friday during the summer months,due to cleaning schedule. I can rent Sun-Sun or Fri-Fri full weeks for $1350 , Summer weekends are $500. I also have an amazing Sun-Fri am special $925. My prices include your local taxes and bed and bath linens. The only other cost is a $50 cleaning fee for weekly stays. The cleaning fee for weekend stays is $25. I own two of these cute little condos ,in the same modest complex. A lot of folks,my repeat guests, like to rent them both together,if traveling with adult family, friends or another couple. Everyone can be together but still have their own private space. I have references from repeat guests. A lot of my guests have become more like old friends returning,in the summer, for a visit. Lost my husband ,way too young, to cancer,a few years ago. If not for these little condos and my precious repeat guests, with the grief,medical bills,and everything else, I would have not been able to keep the home,my late husband and I had shared . I try to treat my guests,the way I would want to be treated. You are a person,not just a name on a rental contract to me. I only live about 15 mins. from my condos. I won't bother you but if you need something, I am only mins. away. Thank you so much for looking at my listing. Hope to hear from you soon. Have a blessed day. Gail Longnecker

Strategies to get the optimal Southport vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in Carolina Beach. To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Southport vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guides which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the perfect rental home:

• Select dates and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Aug\/Sept\/Oct dates av and Labor Day wknd . Winter dates open has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you reserve the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• If there's an individual Southport destination you are crazy about, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges may be applied to your invoice.

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules 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 charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
