How to find the best vacation rental experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in the Charleston area area. To find the best rental within budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Charleston area restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitors guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and picking your prefect Charleston area vacation home:

• Start by having your group select a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. 174 A 3 St Philip Square has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is optimal for your family.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you will need a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

More tips for your visit:

• Get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your .
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of issues.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Record any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your peace. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
