Tips to get the perfect vacation property experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, change your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Finding the best vacation rental in the Southport area:

• First, have your family choose date ranges and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Cozy mid-century bungalow 1 min to kayak launch, 4 mins to beach! Sleeps 6! has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport vacation rental search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you reserve your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your trip.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain Southport attraction you long to visit, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

More considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
• To make certain no damages are attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas when you arrive. text the property manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
