Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your rental home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many rental management companies supply Brunswick area area travel guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best vacation home in the Brunswick area area:

• Start by having your family select date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Executive seaside cottage with detached Crofter Cottage. has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the host before booking the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your trip.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? 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. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or might be applied to your contract.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few issues.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas during arrival. Speak to the host right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct 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.
