Rental home tips:

When to visit & When to book:

• In the Brunswick area area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in Holden Beach. To find the best value, shift your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local Brunswick area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking the perfectrental:

• Start by having your family select a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Two water views, 2-5min. walk to beach, best kitchen, beds & outdoor spaces. has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the host before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Traveling with pets? 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 agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or costs may be applied to your contract.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Call the rental manager right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• At departure, complete a walk-through to make sure you have not leave anything behind. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Most rental management companies 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 inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
