Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some hosts offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.

Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
