Southport vacation rental tips and tricks:

When to visit & When to reserve a Southport rental home:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Southport area. Booking your vacation home in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide 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 local articles, visitors guides have money saving offers on local shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Oceanfront Carolina Beach condo, panoramic views and pool! Steps away to CB fun! has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what is optimal for your vacation group.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the owner's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• At departure, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on good feedback to inspire new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
