Tricks and tips for getting the best Bald Head Island rental experience:

When to book a Southport rental & When to go:

• Summer time is high season in Bald Head Island. Reserve your Southport rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• In the Southport area, The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Planning, selecting, and booking the bestrental:

• Select your vacation week and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Ocean Front and beach access to West Bald Head at the Wetmore House! Pet Friendly! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is best for your group.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Contact the property manager right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to stimulate more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
