Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation group.

• Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.

• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would back home.
