The top floor has a elegant, broad, open floor plan with kitchen, dining room, living room, and wet bar all under cathedral ceilings and with spectacular ocean vistas.

On this level is a bedroom with a double bed with a trundle and daybed with a trundle with a private deck with vistas of the inter-coastal waterway. Next to that is a bedroom with another king bed (so 4 king bedrooms total). The laundry room is also on this level with full sized stacked front load washer and dryer. Private, working elevator from ground floor to top two floors (our 6 BR home is the top 2 levels / unit 100 is the lowest level of the building).

This property is very conveniently located next to a beach access with a ramp and a lifeguard stand for added safety (there is a lifeguard for most of the day during the summer months). It is also right across the street from a coffee shop/ little to go food restaurant (breakfast sandwiches, acai bowls, breakfast burritos and then hamburgers, gyros etc for lunch); this store also has tons of convenience items (ice, milk, creamer etc) so it is an exceptional asset to have right across the street! We are about 8 blocks north of the boardwalk area where there are SO MANY eateries. On Saturday mornings during the summer there is a fun farmer's market / craft booths set up all around the lake which is just on the other side of the boardwalk. This town also has an impressive firework show most Thursday nights during the summer and other activities fun for the family. If you like live bands there are often live bands at the Sea Witch or other establishments on the boardwalk.

Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in the Southport area. To book the best rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guide magazines which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and choose the perfectrental home:

• Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Oceanfront with Amazing Views! has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before you book the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your family.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a specific Southport attraction you are crazy about, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Lock your rental while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your stay, inspect for any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the rental manager right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to drive more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
