Tricks and tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in Wilmington. To book the best rental home within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• In the Southport area, The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, management companies supply Southport area visitor guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing and booking the perfectrental home:

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Guesthouse in Wilmington! 5 minutes to downtown, 15 minutes to the beach! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before booking the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's an individual Southport attraction you long to visit, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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 fees or charges could be applied to your contract.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, record any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
