Before you book "1 Fish 2 Fish - Coastal Vacation Resorts", examine our brief checklist of considerations.

Begin Your Search Early

Many households decide to begin their search over Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year holiday gatherings.

Select your Place and Vacation Week

Oftentimes, the most challenging portion of scheduling your vacation is deciding where to go, and when. When the big decisions are tackled, the rest is simplier and easier.

How Much Rental Do You Actually Need?

Determine who is attending the vacation, and just how many/what particular bedroom arrangement you should have. Remember that that many properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in the living area. It is important to figure out what is most appropriate for your group. Most rental listings will summarize each of the unit's specific bedrooms and mattresses.

Determine Your Budget

The majority of rental properties are advertised with a cost range. Confirm the rate for your preferred stay. It might be at the high end of the range. Make sure to get cost-sharing commitments from family and friends before reserving an expensive rental home. Generally, a single member of the group will be in charge of making the whole reservation and collecting each party's share.

Let's Talk Amenities

What amenities is your family looking for? Are you looking for a rental home with outdoor dining area? Will the unit need to be beachfront, in town, or near restaurants? Does the rental have bikes and body boards available throughout your stay? Gather a list of prioritized "necessities and desires" from your party to help filter your search to the most suitable home.

Accessibility and Special Things to consider

Do certain people in your crew have specific needs? If wheel chair entry, elevators, pool lifts or other specialized equipment is necessary, include that into your search. Nearly all rental listings will include a list of amenities.

Your Dog Needs a Holiday, Too

Negotiate

• Enjoy your stay! Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental home locked up when you are away, just like you would in your own home.

Leaving Paradise

• Check to make sure you've packed all of your belongings. Sweep all the rooms in the house for left-behind items. Inspect bath rooms, the garage, cabinets, outdoor patios, the swimming pool area, and anywhere else your personal property might "hide".
• As soon as everything is out, do a walk-through of the rental home to be certain no property damage occurred in the course of your stay. Whenever possible, do this walk-out review with the property manager present. If the property owner is not available, be sure to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• How was your trip? Most vacation rental management companies and rental websites allow renters to provide feedback.
