Getting the best Crystal Coast vacation home experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Booking your vacation rental in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Planning and choosing the perfect Crystal Coast rental home:

• Choose a group leader, select your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Ocean Front Home in Atlantic Beach-Taylor Cottage has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before booking your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or may be applied to your contract.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• 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 away! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• During arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
