How Much Rental Do You Need?

How many family members are planning to share your vacation? Keep in mind that many rentals advertise maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in the living room space. You'll need to figure out what is most appropriate for the group. Generally rental listings will describe each one of the unit's specific bedrooms and mattresses.

Decide on Your Budget

The majority of vacation homes are presented with a cost range. Determine the cost for your selected week. It may be at the top end of the range. If several groups or family members are sharing the cost, make sure that each group understands their obligations and has approved a maximum they are prepared to contribute.

During your Stay

• Record the condition of the rental unit immediately upon arrival. If you discover damage, or if repairs are required call the rental manager right away. If there is a difference of opinion about liability later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts could be helpful.
• Ask questions. When there is any ambiguity about vehicle parking, rules of the house, property access, swimming pool operation, etc... we advise you ask the rental manager immediately. A quick phone call eliminates many complications.
• Be considerate of the community. . Remember the golden rule and treat others the same way you'd like to be treated by vacationers next to your residence.
• Ask a local. Natives are a great source of advice.

Leaving Paradise

• Always make sure you've packed everything. Inspect drawers, bath cupboards and cabinets.
• As soon as everything is out, perform a walk-through of the property to make certain no damage occurred in the course of your remain. Whenever you can, do this walk-out review with the property manager present. If the property owner is not available, make certain to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• How would you feel about your choice? Most rental home management companies and rental home sites allow renters to offer comments. If the rental home and/or property manager was top notch, they will likely appreciate your compliments. If anything was unsatisfactory and they failed to fix it in a acceptable manner, or when the rental was not as described, you'll want to note that as part of your comments.
