Rental home booking tips:

Getting the most from your budget:

• In the Southport area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Summer is high season in Carolina Beach. To book the largest vacation home within budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Southport attractions. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to pick the best rental home:

• First, have your group select vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. NF1212: Salty Banana: Oceanfront Duplex with decks, pools, hot tubs, elevators has 10 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before booking the property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Record any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a great stay? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
