Tips and Tricks to get the best Southport vacation property experience:

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

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the largest rental within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Southport attractions and restaurants.
• Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guide magazines which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the best rental home in Wilmington:

• Select a group leader, select your dates, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Downtown Wilmington Home: Walk to Cape Fear River! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible online. Otherwise, email the property management company before you book the property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine which bed configuration is right for your vacation family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Some things to know before you go:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many issues.
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
