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

When to book & When to go:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the most suitable rental home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Southport attractions. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• In the Southport area, The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Booking your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many management companies supply Southport area visitors guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or costs may be applied to your contract.

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your stay, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the rental manager immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.

Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective.
