Tricks and tips for getting the perfect rental home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summer is the most expensive season in Sunset Beach. To find the best value, try changing your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Island Home is a 'Sheer Delight' at a Bargain Rate has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the host before you book the home.

• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your review find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
