Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation property experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the best value, try changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. 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 loved ones at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitor guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your search:

• Select dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Wilmington Getaway w\/ Fire Pit, 8 Mi to Beaches! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before booking the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your trip.
• If there's a specific Southport beach you are enamored with, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your .
• Document any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
