Rental booking tips:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Book your Southport rental in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides contain coupons for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning, picking, and booking the perfectrental home:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. One of the NEWEST,NICEST Oceanfront Homes on Oak Island-Elevated has 10 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the property manager right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out 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.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to compel more bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to 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 fix it.
