Southport rental booking tips:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide 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 stories, travel guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Finding the best rental home in Carolina Beach:

• Select a group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. NEW!! Playroom, Modern Home, Greenway & Park, Dog Friendly! has 3 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 normally available online. If not, contact the property owner before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a specific Southport beach you long to visit, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's phone number to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. E-mail the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
