You will need to figure out what is suitable for the company. Specific descriptions of bedrooms and beds are commonly available online. If not, speak to the property owner before you book.

Have a Budget

Will your chosen rental home suit your budget during that choice Summer week? If multiple groups or family members are sharing the cost, make sure each party knows their obligations and has agreed to a maximum they are prepared to pay. A single individual in your group needs to be responsible for collecting contributions and accepting responsibility for the complete rental price at time of booking.

Make a List of "Wishes" and "Needs"

What home features is the group looking for? Is a screened deck a necessity? Are you more enthusiastic about a natural landscape or night life? Are mattress sheets offered with the rental agreement, or do you need to provide your own? Build a list of priority amenities to help filter your search.

Accessibility and Special Things to consider

Optimal access can make or break a trip for the less-mobile. If wheel chair access, elevators, pool lifts or other specialized devices are needed, factor that into your search. Most property listings will include a list of amenities.

Fido Approved

Are you or other members of the party traveling with a dog? Pets are welcome at many rentals, but guidelines can vary. Type of pet, size and dog breeds can be restricted. Study your agreement very carefully! Extra fees may apply when pets are added. If in doubt, ask the property owner and get it in writing.

During your Stay

• Ask a local. Natives are a terrific source of suggestions.
• Make sure to protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the property secured while you are away, exactly like you would in your own home.

Leaving Paradise

• Check to make sure you've packed all of your belongings. Sweep all the rooms in the home for forgotten items. Check bathrooms, the garage, kitchen cabinets, porches, the pool area, and anywhere else your personal property might "hide".
• Be sure to walk through the rental one last time and check for property damage. If it is possible, do this walk-out assessment with the property manager present. If the property manager is not available, make sure that you take photos of the property to record its condition.
• How was your vacation? Many rental websites ask for feedback after your stay . Rental owners and property managers will thank you for favorable reviews. If something went wrong, we suggest being pleasant but straightforward about your rental experience. Top property owners and managers will work very hard to fix the situation.
