Strategies to get the very best Brunswick area rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Book your Brunswick area rental property in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 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. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, property management companies supply Brunswick area area travel guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select your dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Dip Inn: Basic beach house with upgraded appliances has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible online. If not, email or call the property management company before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

More considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your smartphone.
• Upon arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all of your things. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to propel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
