• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the rental manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.

• Did your group have a great stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words.
