Tips to get the perfect rental experience:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• In the Brunswick area area, The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine 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 information, visitors guides contain discounts for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by having your group select trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Cozy Duplex only 0.5 mile walk to public beach access has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the host before booking your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a specific Brunswick area attraction you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the property manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great ratings to drive more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
