Tips to get the perfect rental experience:

When to go & When to book:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a good way to save on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. 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 loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Charleston area area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking yourvacation home:

• Start by selecting the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Historic downstairs home in downtown Charleston w\/free WiFi - perfect for groups has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible online. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is best for your trip.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Charleston area beach you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking

More considerations:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.

• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect your property!
• During arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! 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 fishing?
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to compel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
