Brunswick area rental home booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Brunswick area rental property in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitors guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and pick the right Brunswick area rental home:

• Choose a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Quintessential BHI escape. NEW! Updated Beach House has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property manager before you book your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Is your family looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the host's phone number to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Record any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your peace. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to drive future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
