Strategies to get the best vacation rental experience:

When to reserve a Brunswick area rental & When to go:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is a good way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The sooner you can book, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, rental management companies supply Brunswick area area travel guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership 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.

Make a plan and choose the bestrental home:

• Begin by choosing potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Britt’s barefeet beach retreat is your next vacation rental has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the host before you book the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• If there's a particular Brunswick area attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or costs could be applied to your contract.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas during arrival. text the rental manager right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
