How to book the best vacation home experience:

Getting the best value:

• The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved early.

Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.

Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many property management companies supply Southport area visitor guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself.
