The oceanside pool (open from Easter - October) and deck are some of the biggest at Holden Beach! The cavernous poolside deck offers plenty of room for everybody, complete with lounge chairs for sunbathing, a shaded area, and a picnic table.

Let the ocean waves (and sometimes dolphins) mesmerize you while you appreciate morning coffee in the kitchen or outside on the main level deck. The well-designed kitchen makes feeding your hungry crowd painless. It features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, chilled water and crushed ice in the refrigerator door, Keurig and drip coffee makers, and an Air Fryer/Toaster oven. There's also a park-style charcoal grille outside.

Every bedroom has its own private bath and a flat-screen TV with streaming service capability. Hi-speed wireless internet, full cable TV, DVD, and complimentary US long-distance phone service are all supplied.

All bathrooms include one roll of toilet paper, trash bags, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion, makeup wipes, and bar soap. Your beds are made with fresh linens and a lightweight blanket, so you can jump right into making memories rather than making beds!

Strategies for getting the best Southport rental experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• To get the best value, try shifting your family's Southport vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many property management companies supply Southport area visitors guides which will include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking a perfect Southport rental home:

• Begin by choosing vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Hobbs Realty - Relax, “It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere”! A five-bedroom, pet-friendly oceanfront with a pool. has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email the host before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what is best for your vacation family.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a great stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
