Strategies to get the optimal Southport rental experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. Book your Southport rental property in the Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. Studio Downtown Wilmington has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible online. If not, reach out to the host before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your stay, record any problem areas during check in. E-mail the rental manager right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
