Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. Book your Southport rental in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful 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 near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain coupons for local tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. 3BR/2BA Home, Charming w/ Waterway Views, Close to Beach, Sleeps 8 has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the host before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Is your group looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of problems.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently 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 crabbing?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
