Our top Southport vacation rental tips:

When to reserve a Southport rental & When to go:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Booking a rental in the Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain discounts for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Choosing the perfect rental in the Southport area:

• Choose dates and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Rip Tide at Sunset Beach, private home, sleeps 10 has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If not, call the property manager before reserving the rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the host immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a great stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
