Our top Southport rental home booking tips and tricks:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in Oak Island. Booking in Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide magazine upon checking 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 information, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Choosing the best rental:

• Choose your vacation week and max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Dream Chaser \/ 505 W. Beach Drive - Coastal Vacation Resorts has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking pages. If not, call the property management company before you book the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Southport beach you are crazy about, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
