How to get the best Southport vacation property experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Southport. Book your rental in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Booking your rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides have discounts for local tours and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking the rightrental home:

• Start by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Relax & Unwind in Blue Haven! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you reserve the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's an individual Wilmington, NC attraction you are enamored with, browse homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas when you arrive. message the host right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few problems.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
