Rental property booking tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in Oak Island. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many management companies supply Southport area visitor guides which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by selecting your trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Tropical Breeze \/ 228 W Dolphin Drive - Coastal Vacation Resorts has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking pages. If not, contact the property owner before you book the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the host right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a great resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to compel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
