Our top Crystal Coast vacation rental tips and tricks:

Finding the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Crystal Coast area. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• In the Crystal Coast area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to buy 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 time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Crystal Coast visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have coupons for nearby tours and attractions.

Make a plan and pick the right Crystal Coast rental home:

• Start by having your group decide on the best dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. 4BR Ocean Front - DOG OK - Close to town! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Crystal Coast vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you book the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is suitable for your vacation family.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips for a great stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• 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 time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix 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 comments.
