Dune Just Fine has been meticulously maintained with pride in an effort to always have that "new home feel" . We have continued to roll rental income back into DJF each year to keep it one of the most desired properties on Holden Beach.

The five bedrooms consist of 3 KING bedrooms,1 bedroom with two queens and 1 bedroom with a pair of double bunk beds. DJF will comfortably sleep 14. Four bedrooms have their own private bath.

Strategies for getting the best vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• June, July, and August are high season in Holden Beach. To get the best vacation home for your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. 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 family and friends at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Southport area magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by choosing your vacation dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. THE PERFECT FAMILY BEACH HOME! has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available online. Otherwise, email the host before booking the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Considerations for your stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
