Tips to get the perfect rental home experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• Summer is the most expensive season in Wilmington. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, 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 grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting and booking a perfect Southport rental:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. PalmTreeHouse has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the host before reserving the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what bed configuration is right for your group.
• If there's a specific Southport beach you are enamored with, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During check-in, record any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on good ratings to drive more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
