Tips to get the best Southport vacation rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the best value, change your family's Wilmington, NC trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The sooner your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Booking your rental home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and picking your prefect Wilmington, NC vacation home:

• Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. 1BR\/1BA Efficiency Condo, Close to the Beach, Pool, Sleeps 4 has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC destination you long to visit, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or costs might be applied to your invoice.

Tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the rental manager right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of concerns.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• At departure, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
