Finding the best rental value:

• In the Crystal Coast area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early.

If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
