Tips to get the best Brunswick area rental experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in the Brunswick area area. To find the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer special rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Genuine at Holden Beach Ocean front with private heated pool and great beach views has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property manager before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what is optimal for your vacation family.
• If there's a certain Brunswick area beach you love, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your family's visit, note any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many issues.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
