How to book the best Oak Island vacation home experience:

How to get the best value:

• Summer months are high season in the Southport area. Booking your Southport vacation rental in Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Some property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guides which include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. 2min Walk to Beach, Local Cafes\/Shops, New Build! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the host before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a specific Southport attraction you simply love, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the rental manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent source for finding the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
