Strategies to get the best Crystal Coast vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Crystal Coast area. To get the best value, try changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides have money saving offers on local shops and restaurants.

How to select the perfect rental home:

• To start, have your family decide on the best dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Ocean-side condominium with pool and private beach access has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property manager before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. text the host immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let crooks ruin your trip.
• At departure, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
