Vacation rental booking tips:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Southport. To get the best value, try changing your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Finding the best vacation rental in the Carolina Beach area:

• First, have your family commit to dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Hello Sunshine Townhome has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property management company before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your stay, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the host immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct 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 comments.
