Our top Vacation rental tips and tricks:

Get the most from your spending budget:

Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
To find the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
Look for your local Southport area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Make a plan and pick the rightvacation home:

To start, have your family decide on trip dates and a max budget.
Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Hobbs Realty - 'Mermaid Vibes\" is the perfect island getaway! It has all the coastal charm you've been dreaming of has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available online. If they are not listed, call the host before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
If there's an individual Southport destination you love, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

Know before you go:

Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of concerns.
Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
To make sure that damages are not linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the property manager immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. 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.
Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best rental 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 solve it.
