You'll need to determine what is most appropriate for your company. Specific descriptions of bedrooms and beds are typically available on the internet. If not, communicate with the property owner before you reserve the home.

Decide on Your Budget

Does the preferred vacation property fit your budget during that preferred Summer week?

One individual in your company will have to be in charge of gathering repayments and acknowledging responsibility for the complete rental price at time of reservation.

Its All About Amenities

What amenities is the family looking for? Are you looking for a rental with open-air kitchen? Would you like to be far from the crowds, or close to civilization? Are bed linens included with the rental, or will you need to take your own? Make a list of "needs and preferences" from your group to help filter your search to the most suitable rental.

During your Stay

• Please be respectful of the community. Locals should be as friendly to you as you are respectful of them. Remember the golden rule and treat others the same way you'd like to be treated by visitors next to your home.
• Ask a local. Residents are a good source of advice. Who better to ask where to get the best pizza, have a great night out, or the best areas for wildlife?
• Make sure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the property locked up while you are away, exactly like you would at home.

Checking Out

• Tidy up a bit. Regardless of whether you're paying a housekeeping fee, The rental home is required to be in good condition. Sinks brimming with dishes, surplus beach sand on the floors and sticky messes should really be addressed before leaving.
• As soon as your things are all out, begin a walk-through of the property to make sure no property damage occurred during your remain. If it is possible, do this walk-out review with the property owner present. If the property owner is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a good time? Many rental management companies and rental search sites permit customers to give feedback. If the rental home and/or property manager was top-notch, they will likely appreciate your recommendations. If something was unacceptable and they failed to correct it in a practical manner, or when the vacation rental was not as described, you should make it a point as part of your review.
