Tips to get the best Southport rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a great way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved early. Booking your rental property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the best rental home:

• To start, have your family commit to date ranges and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Aloha -- Pet Friendly Beach House with dock and Incredible Marsh and Creek View has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before booking your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If there's a certain Southport beach you simply love, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, hosts charge additional pet fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Document any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great time? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
