Tricks and tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your rental property in the Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitor guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefectrental:

• Choose your dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Our Sand Dune - Traditional Oceanfront Cottage - Covered Oceanfront Porlches! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• At Check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of problems.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Protect your property!
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to drive future 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 could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
