Strategies to get the best vacation property experience:

When to go & When to book:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Summer months are high season in the Brunswick area area. To find the best value, change your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Some hosts offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitor guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. 6BR\/4BA - Oceanfront, 2 Living Areas, 2 Kitchens, Gazebo, Sleeps 16 has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a particular Brunswick area attraction you simply love, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many difficulties.
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• During arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on good reviews to stimulate more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
