Rental booking tips and tricks:

Finding the best rental home value:

• Summer time is high season in the Myrtle Beach area. To find the best value, shift your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Myrtle Beach area travel guide magazines which often include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the best rental home in Myrtle Beach:

• First and foremost, have your family commit to vacation dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Fore and Aft - Pet-friendly has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. If they are not listed, email the property manager before you book the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if damages are assessed.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
