Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Southport vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in Oak Island. To get the most suitable vacation home within budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply Southport area travel guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and choose the bestrental:

• Choose vacation week and spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. Live Oak Villa-Canal, Beach, Kid Friendly has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before you reserve the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine which bed configuration is best for your vacation family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to book a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• Record any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if there is a dispute.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
