Tips to get the best rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Book your Southport vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. 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 and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have coupons for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning, selecting, and booking the best Southport rental:

• First and foremost, have your group select dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Sea Haven: Elegant Home Close to Intracoastal Waterway, Parks and Beach has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the property owner before reserving the property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a specific Southport attraction you are crazy about, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the host right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a terrific source for finding the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
