Strategies to get the perfect Brunswick area rental home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer is high season in the Brunswick area area. To find the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front 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 on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfect Brunswick area rental home:

• Start by selecting vacation dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. The Blu Belle has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is generally available online. If not, contact the host before you reserve your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a certain Brunswick area destination you love, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

More considerations:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the rental manager right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
