Tips to get the perfect Southport vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your Southport rental property in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of 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 shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

How to choose and book a perfect Southport vacation home:

• Start by selecting your vacation dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Nemo's Place: 2 Single Kayaks, 5 Bicycles and Room for Outdoor Entertaining has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport vacation rental search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking websites. If not, contact the host before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out which bed configuration is best for your family.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Put the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few issues.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
