Tricks and tips for getting the best rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To book the best vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Southport restaurants and activities.
• In the Southport area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Southport area visitor guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking your Southport rental:

• Choose dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Spacious 4-Bedroom Cuckoos Nest in Ocean Isle Beach, NC Pool and Elevator has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what is optimal for your group.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Add the property manager's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• During arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few issues.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to propel new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
