Tricks and tips to get the best Southport vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summertime is high season in Holden Beach. To get the best value, shift your family's Southport trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, , and reduced traffic.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your rental up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Hobbs Realty - \"Terrapin Station\" offer views of the marsh and ocean, 4 bedrooms ,and private pool has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. If not, call the property management company before reserving your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a particular Southport attraction you are crazy about, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Have a great stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your . We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many issues.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would back home.
• 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 property a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to propel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families 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 host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
