Our top Rental home tips and tricks:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Southport area. To book the best rental within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Southport attractions. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer special rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfect Southport rental:

• First, have your family choose the best dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Family friendly, prime location, clean & bright has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property management company before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your vacation group.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Document any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great reviews to stimulate more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
