Choosing an Correctly-Sized Vacation rental

Take a head count. How many beds and bedrooms will you need? Bear in mind that most rental homes advertise maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in the living room space. You will need to figure out what is most appropriate for your party. Specific descriptions of bedrooms and beds are commonly available on the internet. If not, speak to the property manager before you reserve the home.

Its All About Amenities

Do you want to be far from the crowds, or close to civilization? Are bedsheets included with the rental agreement, or do you need to take your own? Make a list of priority amenities to help filter your search.

Special Circumstances

Grandpa and Grandma will appreciate you for not reserving a stairs-access-only condominium on the Third floor. Be sure to remember and inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs..

Your Dog Deserves a Holiday, Too

Be sure to include your companion! Animal guidelines are different at each rental property. Study descriptions thoroughly. Type of animal, size and breeds can be limited.

Negotiate

When you have located your dream rental, double check to make sure your trip dates are available.

Although not true for all properties, many rental owners and property managers will negotiate rates. If they are hesitant to budge on a highly-desirable trip, try getting an additional night. Your best opportunity for a reduced rate will be changing to a less desirable week.

• Be sure to protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the property locked up when you are away, exactly like you would at home.

When its Time to Leave
