Tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the most suitable rental home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Southport attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides have offers and deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Start by having your group commit to the best dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. MilRay: Dog-friendly Home Centrally Located in Yaupon Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before you book the rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's an individual Southport destination you love, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs applied to your contract.

More tips for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to propel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
