Tricks and tips to get the very best Southport vacation property experience:

Getting the best value:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Holden Beach. To get the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitor guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and choosing the perfect Southport rental:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. FUN BEACH GETAWAY! Beach Access Across the Street / Fully Equipped Kitchen has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If not, email the property management company before you reserve your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or costs could be applied to your contract.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Record any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
