Tricks and tips to get the perfect Charleston area rental home experience:

Find your best deal:

June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal SC. Book your rental in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Some property managers offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
Property management companies usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitor guide magazines which will include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to pick the perfect rental:

Start by selecting a vacation week and a spending budget.
Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. The Nicholas Veranda King Suite - Steps to King has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property owner before reserving the home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few problems.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
Lock your vacation home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
Upon check-out, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Go through the rental a final time and scan for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Did you have a wonderful time? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
