Our top Atlantic Beach vacation rental tips and tricks:

When to visit & When to book:

• Reserve your Crystal Coast rental in Fall or Spring months to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The sooner your group can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many rental management companies supply Crystal Coast area visitors guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Finding the perfect rental in the Crystal Coast area:

• To start, have your group commit to trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Windsong Beach Cottage- with Amazing Ocean Views has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Crystal Coast rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available online. Otherwise, call the property manager before booking the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Does your group require unique amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the host immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to inspire new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
