Strategies for getting the perfect Southport vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in the Southport area. Book your Southport rental property in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain deals for nearby tours and attractions.

How to pick the best vacation home in the Southport area:

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. 7BR/6.5BAH House - Ocean Views, Event Home, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 18 has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If not, contact the host before you book the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what configuration is best for your family.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Does your group require unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
