How to get the best rental value:

• Summer is high season in Carolina Beach. Book your Southport rental property in Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.

• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
