Strategies to get the optimal Charleston area vacation home experience:

Find your perfect rental home:

Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
June, July, and August are high season in Charleston. To find the best vacation home within budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Charleston area restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
Booking websites often offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have discounts for nearby tours and attractions.

Make a plan and pick a perfectrental:

First and foremost, have your group choose a vacation week and a budget.
Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Light filled apt overlooking enchanting gardens one block to King. has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area vacation rental search.
Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible online. Otherwise, email the property owner before reserving your home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.
Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Considerations for your stay:

Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your . Put the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few problems.
Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
During arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Did you have a terrific stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
