Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Upon check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.

• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
