Our top Rental home tips and tricks:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, change your vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic.
• The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Booking your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area travel guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental 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.

Choosing the best vacation rental in the Brunswick area area:

• Start by having your family decide on a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Newly renovated home across from the beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property management company before you book the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on good ratings to stimulate new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
