Getting the best Charleston rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Charleston. Reserve your Charleston area vacation home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be 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 on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Charleston area visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guides have deals for local tours and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Choose dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Guesthouse Charleston East 42 A & B has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If not, email or call the property manager before booking your rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or charges might be applied to your contract.

Tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Document any issues with the property during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to stimulate more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
