How to get the best Bald Head Island vacation property experience:

Find your perfect rental home:

• June, July, and August are high season in Bald Head Island. Book your Southport rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• In the Southport area, The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Selecting the best rental:

• Begin by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Oceanfront, East Beach, Occupancy 12, Four Bedroom Home has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the host before booking the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure no damages are attributed to your visit, make note of any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the rental manager right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually 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 out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
