PHENOMENAL NEW HOME 7 BR 7.5 WALK TO E BEACH, EA BR PRIVATE BR & OUTDOOR SPACE
Beautiful, brand new 7 bedroom and 7 1/2 bath home first time offered on the rental market. Designed and constructed for sizable multigenerational family vacations, special occasions, corporate retreats, and get-togethers. Five bedrooms have a king bed, 43-55in. intelligent TV, private tiled and granite bathroom, bathrooms with rain can shower heads and some with body jets, all have access to a screen porch.

The BHI and Shoal's Clubs are optional with the rental of our home.

"A Shore Thing Too" is the sister property of "A Shore Thing BHI". The two homes are neighboring, the backs of the properties face each other across the alleyway constructed for families/friends and groups that require two homes in the same vicinity. What fun for two families or groups to play corn hole in the alley or walk across the alley to visit!

We designed, along with our Architect and the BHI Architectural Review Board a home that exudes calm. We created serenity with an abundance of natural light, a calming coastal color palette, comfortable bedrooms with private full baths and access to generous outdoor space, open concept main living area, natural elements, functional design, reverse floor plan, cozy bespoke Amish furnishings, shiplap throughout, all bespoke cabinetry kitchen/ bathroom vanities and laundry room, handsome leathered Negresco granite in the kitchen, rustic, random width wood floors, bespoke interior shutters in the bedrooms/bathrooms and high wooden ceilings.

Vistas and nature on BHI were front and center in our design plan as we spend the majority of our time on BHI appreciating the outdoors. We used Anderson Coastal Storm hurricane windows and beautiful Anderson tall exterior double doors throughout, bringing the outdoors in. We doubled the size of our home with outdoor space to be appreciated by guests including; 2 decks, a covered porch and 8 enormous screened in porches. We appreciate relaxing on the screen porches listening to the crickets and ocean at nighttime and the cicadas, birds and surf during the day. The outdoor spaces are furnished with comfortable and durable Polywood Furnishings that coordinates seamlessly with TRex decking.

For your transportation needs we provide 4 six passenger, identical, 2021 Club Car golf carts with HP motors. The golf carts are parked in the garage. The golf carts are equipped with automatic garage door openers.

Welcome to BHI and welcome to "A Shore Thing TOO",
Annemarie and John Marinelli

Strategies to get the best Southport rental home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To book the largest vacation home within budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Southport attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable 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 vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies supply Southport area visitor guide magazines that include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your search:

• First and foremost, have your family agree to date ranges and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. PHENOMENAL NEW HOME 7 BR 7.5 WALK TO E BEACH, EA BR PRIVATE BR & OUTDOOR SPACE has 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before booking the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what is best for your vacation.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More tips for your stay:

• Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Note any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on good ratings to propel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
