Most people are surprised to find out that the 3rd Party vacation rental website that they are using will be charging them hundreds of dollars for booking through them. What if Google charged you every time you used their search engine to find a product that you are looking for? Essentially, that is what most of these sites do. From their perspective, they are offering some protections that they say justify their fees. However, they don't give you a choice if you want or need these protections, they just charge you. These fees can be close to $500 - $700 for a 4 bedroom house rental down to $150 dollars or more to for a 2 bedroom condo rental. But you can avoid all these charges by booking direct with the Owner / Manager of the vacation rental. How do you contact the owner? Some of these sites make it almost impossible, while others make it easy by just sending the owner a message thru their site. It all depends on which site you are using. But since you are on my site, you have found the owner and manager of these oceanfront vacation rentals! So game over!
Just pick a rental and a week ... verify that it is available by going to the calendar page, and then send me a message. It is that simple. I will send you a rental agreement and we can work out the best way to pay the deposit to hold it for you. PayPal, Venmo, or a check in the mail and you are ready to go! It is that simple!
