Tips to get the perfect Southport rental home experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. Book your Wilmington, NC rental property in Fall or Spring months to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides contain deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

• Select your dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Pet-Friendly Southport Home w\/ Deck: 8 Mi to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking websites. If not, contact the property management company before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.

During your stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• During check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.

• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
