It is important to figure out what is most appropriate for your family. Precise descriptions of bedrooms and beds are commonly available online. If not, email or call the property manager before you reserve the home.

Stick to a Budget

Most rental properties are presented with a price range. Determine the cost for your selected stay. It might be at the top end of the range. Make sure that you get cost-sharing commitments from travel companions prior to booking an expensive rental. Most rental agreements call for a single individual to be in charge of the full reservation.

Let's Talk Amenities

What amenities is your group searching for? Is a screened-in deck a requirement? Are you more interested in a natural landscape or amusements? Does the rental have bikes and beach toys for use as part of your stay? Make a list of prioritized "needs and wishes" from your party to help narrow your search to the perfect home.

During your Stay

• To assure no damages are linked to your stay, create a record of any problem areas of the rental. Get in touch with the rental manager immediately to report your observations. If there is a disagreement about responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts could be helpful.
• Ask questions. Should there be any ambiguity about parking, rules of the property, condo access, swimming pool functions, etc... we recommend you ask the rental home manager immediately. A phone call can save hours of hassle.
• Please remember to respect your nearby neighbors. Permanent residents usually live within earshot. Remember the golden rule and treat others the same way you'd like to be treated by visitors next to your primary residence.
• Ask a local. Locals are a fantastic source of recommendations.
• Enjoy your stay! Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the vacation rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.

Leaving Paradise

• Double-check each room of the rental property to assure you've gathered all personal belongings.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental home one last time and look for damage. If you can, do this walk-out inspection with the property owner present. If the property manager is not available, be sure to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• How do you feel about your stay? Just about all rental management companies and rental home sites allow renters to give comments. If your property and/or property manager was great, they'll appreciate your compliments. If anything went wrong, we recommend being pleasant but genuine with regards to rental experience. The best owners and managers will try very hard to rectify the issue.
