Tips to get the perfect Southport vacation property experience:

Get the best value:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Summer is high season in Oak Island. Booking a rental in Fall or Spring is a great way to save on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides have money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Planning and picking your prefectrental home:

• Select your dates and spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration you need. 2nd Row Fantastic Views - steps from the Ocean! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you reserve your rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what is best for your family.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain Southport destination you love, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

More tips for your stay:

• Add the owner's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the host right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
