How to find the best Oak Island vacation home experience:

When to go & When to book:

• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, try shifting your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter 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.
• In the Southport area, The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, property management companies supply Southport area travel guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental:

• Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Family Tides \/ 702 W Dolphin Drive- Coastal Vacation Resorts has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation family.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
