Tricks and tips to get the best rental home experience:

When to visit Atlantic Beach & When to book:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Atlantic Beach. To book the largest vacation home within budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Crystal Coast area visitor guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Ocean View Escape - Ocean View Condo has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your stay, make note of any problem areas during arrival. Contact the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed everything at departure. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to drive new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
