Tips to get the best rental home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Summer months are high season in the Southport area. Book your vacation in Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
Some property managers offer discounts 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 before you book.
Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning and picking your Southport vacation home:

First, have your group agree to trip dates and a maximum budget.
Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Saltwater Shores, A Beachfront Retreat has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the host before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
If there's an individual Southport attraction you crave, browse homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
Upon arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
Did your group have a great stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
