Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Brunswick area rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Brunswick area rental property in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, management companies supply Brunswick area area visitors guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to select the best rental in Holden Beach:

• Select dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Tortuga - Fantastic Canal Home with Floating Dock! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. Otherwise, email the property owner before reserving the home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's a certain Brunswick area attraction you are enamored with, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Tips for a smooth stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. message the host right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
