Strategies to get the best vacation rental experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Summer time is high season in the Crystal Coast area. To get the best rental home within your budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies supply Crystal Coast area travel guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking the rightrental:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. 5+4 Heated Pool Home, Steps from Beach, Bonus Ground Floor Apartment has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before reserving your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if damages are assessed.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
