Brunswick area rental home tips:

How to get the best value:

• To get the largest vacation home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Brunswick area attractions.
• The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitors guides that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental 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.

Selecting the best vacation home:

• First and foremost, have your group choose date ranges and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Walk to Beach, Full Kitchen, Cozy Surf Studio has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Brunswick area vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always available online. If not, email or call the host before you book the vacation property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is suitable for your trip.
• Does your group require specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix 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 review.
