Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Brunswick area visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides have discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by selecting the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Whole duplex right downtown! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what is suitable for your vacation group.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if damages are assessed.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
