Atlantic Beach rental home booking tips:

Finding the best value:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Crystal Coast area. Book your Crystal Coast vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Crystal Coast visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines have offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Newly renovated 2 bedroom, 2 bath resort condo. 150' giant waterslide! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you book the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

During your stay:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect your property!
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, make note of any problem areas during arrival. Speak to the rental manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your life at home. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
