Tricks and tips to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

Find your best deal:

• In the Southport area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Reserving your rental home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Carolina Beach. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. Darling 1930s cottage across from ocean! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your vacation.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.
• Visiting for a single event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

Advice for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your peace. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out 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.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
