Strategies to get the very best vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• In the Southport area, The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Summer is high season in the Southport area. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• 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 shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides have money saving offers on local tours, shops, and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select vacation week and spending budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Newly Built Oak Island Getaway: Walk to Beaches! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a specific Southport beach you are crazy about, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

During your stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the rental manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
