Our top Rental home booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• In the Brunswick area area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Wrightsville Beach. Reserve your vacation in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitors guide magazines which often include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Make a plan and pick yourvacation home:

• Select vacation week and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Lumina Cottage by Mira-Mar has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what is optimal for your group.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Considerations for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your phone.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect your property!
• Record any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to stimulate future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
