Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Brunswick area vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in the Brunswick area area. Booking your vacation home in the Fall or Spring is a great way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• First and foremost, have your group select date ranges and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Spectacular Oceanfront Condo - Once Upon A Tide has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you reserve the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• If there's a specific Brunswick area destination you are enamored with, browse rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your phone.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of issues.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
