Tips and Tricks to get the best Brunswick area vacation rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in Carolina Beach. To find the largest vacation home within budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have coupons for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and choose a perfectrental:

• Begin by selecting your vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Elegant beachfront escape with private boardwalk, free WiFi, & furnished balcony has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the host before booking your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or costs could be applied to your contract.
• If there's an individual Brunswick area destination you are crazy about, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

More tips for your visit:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents many issues.
• Lock your rental while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. text the rental manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed everything at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address 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 feedback.
