Getting the best Southport rental experience:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• To get the best value, shift your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many property management companies supply Southport area visitor guides that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the best rental:

• First and foremost, have your group choose dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Ocean View, Steps to Beach, Private Yard & Firepit has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport vacation rental search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Get information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your smartphone.
• During check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to make sure you have not leave anything behind. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a great vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
