Finding the best rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many management companies supply Brunswick area area visitors guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose the best vacation rental:

• Choose your vacation dates and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Babington Ocean Front Beach Home with Pool--heated pool optional-- has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you book the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or costs could be applied to your invoice.

More tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your phone.
• During arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
