Tips for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Book your Southport vacation home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide 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 information, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• First, have your group select date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Oak Island Cottage w\/ Spacious Backyard & Porch has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the host before booking your home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.

Tips for a smooth stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the host immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you are away. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good feedback to stimulate more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. 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 reasonably to remedy it.
