• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.

• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback.
