Savor the handsome sunset and watch Charleston's resident pod of dolphins as you stay on our 2 Bedroom/2 bathroom 40' yacht! Park for complimentary at our marvelous location on the Ashley River and the peninsula of elegant downtown Charleston, SC. Walk to a Riverdog's baseball game (single-A affiliated with the Yankees), or simply watch the stadium's fireworks from the comfort of the yacht's deck while sipping a beverage. Cross the street to Publix to grab any groceries you need for your stay. We are right around the corner from the Citadel (go Bulldogs!), and mins. away from the shopping and nightlife of King Street. Charleston's southern appeal, historic mansions, and world-acclaimed eateries will be at your fingertips!

The yacht has a completely equipped kitchen (stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffee maker). We supply kitchen necessities and a entirely outfitted spice rack for those who like to prepare. There are 2 flat screen TVS with two blu-ray players, and plenty of board games. No fear with kids as there is a first class playground in the park adjacent to the boat 200 yards away. Both bedrooms have bespoke-made memory foam beds that feel like supportive clouds. Take advantage of the boat's central heat and air, or open all the hatches and windows to let the sea breeze flow through. Fresh linens and towels supplied. Wifi and a giant selection of movies included.

We appreciate our yachts and strive to create a incredible vacation experience for our renters. This yacht is part of the Redfin Charters’ Fleet. RedFin Charters has been seen on Discovery Channel, Bravo and ABC. We were also voted best fishing Charter in Charleston the last six consecutive years. Please ask about fishing and sight-seeing charter options including dolphin, shark's teeth digs, eco tours, and sunset cruises on one of our many boats. We are happy to create bespoke charters to meet your needs. We will gladly offer you a discount if booked at the time of making your reservation. This is a dockside charter and not a short-term rental. By booking you are chartering the boat to remain at the dock during your stay.

We would adore to share our favorite place in Charleston with you!

Tips and Tricks to get the best rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Charleston. To get the most suitable rental within your budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at Charleston area restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Charleston area 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 articles, travel guides contain discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

How to choose the perfect rental in the Charleston area area:

• Begin by selecting vacation dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. Luxury yacht in downtown Charleston, SC has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If not, contact the property owner before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your contract.

Advice for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
