Tips and Tricks to get the perfect rental experience:

Get the best value:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Brunswick area rental property in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• To start, have your family select vacation dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. 5 Bedroom 6.5 Bath Duplex, Ocean View, Dog Friendly, Pool, Sleeps 16 has 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available online. If not, call the property management company before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a particular Brunswick area attraction you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

Have a wonderful stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the host immediately to document any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent reviews to compel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
