Our top Southport vacation rental tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. Reserve your rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 friends and family at your favorite beach.
• In the Southport area, The earlier you can book, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify 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 guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Selecting the perfect vacation home:

• Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and select a maximum budget.

• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you book the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Does your group require unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.

• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.

• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on good feedback to inspire future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
