Once you've found a few potential rental properties that meet your criteria, it's time to start narrowing down your choices. Here are a few things to keep in mind as you compare different properties:

  • Amenities: What amenities does the property offer? Is there a pool, hot tub, or other recreation areas on-site? Are there any special features that would be perfect for your group (like a game room or large kitchen)?

  • Price: How much does the property cost per night? Is the price within your budget?
