Charleston rental booking tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental home value:

Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Summer is the most expensive season in the Charleston area area. To book the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Charleston area restaurants and activities.
Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides contain money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Make a plan and choose the bestvacation home:

Choose vacation week and maximum budget.
Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. A4 at StPhilipSquare, One Block to King, Top Floor Courtyard View Apartment has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the host before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
Are you visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

Have a wonderful stay:

Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
During arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
Did you have a excellent time? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix 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 comments.
