Our favorite, Xaio Bao Biscuit is great for lunch and dinner, with generously set up outside dining for social distancing.

How to book the best Charleston rental home experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal SC. Reserve your Charleston area rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many management companies supply Charleston area area visitor guides which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental:

• Choose your vacation week and max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Large High End Historic Dtn Suite. 1 bed+sofabed has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what configuration is right for your trip.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make sure that damages are not attributed to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. Call the host immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect your property!
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to compel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
