Strategies to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a rental home:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Oak Island. Book your Southport rental in Fall or Spring months to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guide magazines that include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to pick the best vacation rental:

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Wonderful Dog Friendly Cottage in the Peaceful Quiet Section of Oak Island has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a particular Southport beach you crave, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are out! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
