Know your needs and wants
01
Determine how many
bedrooms and bathrooms
you'll need.
Consider which amenities
your group prioritizes
over others.

group, what features will
help accommodatethem?
Start Early – Timing is Important!
02
Planning a year in
advanceis a good rule of
thumb.
To save money, consider
flexible dates.
You can often save
hundreds by reserving
your spot in the last week
of the off-peak season.
Ask for Pictures
03
If no pictures are
provided, it could be a red
flag.
Ask the property manager
for as many pictures as
you need to feel
comfortable.
Search for the property
on multiplesites and
Google Street View!
Pick Apart the Wording
04
Analyze descriptive
terminology and contact
the property manager
with any questions.
Terms like "oceanfront"
and "beachfront" can
confuse renters – did you
know that only
"beachfront" ensures you
a spot on the water?
Read Reviews
05
Find reviews on the
property and the property
manager.
Read as many reviews as
possible.
Don't let every review
affect the decision, for
example, the size of the
pool might not matter if
you're visiting in January!
Create a Reasonable Budget
05
Saving is great, but you
don't have to be too
cheap - after all, you're on
vacation!
Prioritize what amenities
are worth your buck
based on your needs.
Thorough research will
lead you to the best deals.
Thanks!
