Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.

• Did your family have a excellent stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise.
