Tips and Tricks for getting the best Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

Find your best deal:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. Booking your Southport vacation rental in Spring or Fall is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties.
• Some property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain offers and deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Finding the best vacation rental in the Southport area:

• Start by having your group agree to date ranges and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Canal front views, gorgeous sunsets and your own boat dock! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's a particular Southport attraction you love, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• During check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
