How to get the best vacation home experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Southport area. To get the best rental home within budget, we suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guides which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfect Southport vacation home:

• To start, have your group decide on the best dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. TWO SALTY DOGS - Oak Island, NC has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you reserve your home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective 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.
