Tricks and tips for getting the best vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• To get the largest rental within budget, we suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Family Beach House Ready for Water Fun! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available online. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you book the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your group.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your . Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• During arrival, note any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
