Tips and Tricks for getting the best Brunswick area vacation property experience:

Get the best rental home value:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Brunswick area area. To get the largest rental within budget, we recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some owners offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Brunswick area area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the perfect rental home:

• Start by choosing vacation dates and a max budget.
• Downtown, Near the Beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Brunswick area rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before you book your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what configuration is best for your vacation.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Brunswick area destination you love, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to compel new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
