Our top Vacation rental tips:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking your Southport vacation home in the Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your Search:

• First and foremost, have your family agree to the best dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Relax and enjoy being “Sunkissed by the Sea”. Located on the quiet east end! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property manager before you reserve your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a terrific time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
