Tricks and tips for getting the perfect vacation rental experience:

When to book a Southport rental & When to go:

• Summer is the most expensive season in the Southport area. Book your vacation in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• In the Southport area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Southern Gem- Centrally Located-10 min to downtown or the beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property management company before booking the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what is best for your vacation.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Request information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on good feedback to stimulate more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. 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 remedy it.
