Summary:
Slide into the heart of Charleston like you own the place with Casa Zoë, your VIP pass to the city’s thrumming pulse, right where the action is—on the most elite street and on the best block in the Short Term Overlay District. But don’t worry, we keep the buzz at the doorstep; inside, it’s all about serene, chic getaway vibes, with a sprinkle of old Charleston magic and a generous pour of modern flair.

The Space:
Welcome to Casa Zoë's Royal Cottage I, where boho-chic isn't just a style, it's a way of life, framed by the iconic glamour of Slim Aarons art. This jewel is perched in the heartbeat of Charleston, a skip away from the culinary wizardry of James Beard-awarded eateries, the sweet temptations of Sugar Bakeshop 3 doors down, and the smoky seduction of South Bound across the street, where the open fire kitchen meets a bar so sexy, it could write its own romance novel. Not to mention, you're surrounded by boutique shopping that could effortlessly turn a leisurely walk into an all-day affair.

This 4BR, 5BA masterpiece, where every inch screams "design goals" and every room whispers tales of Slim Aarons' poolside glam. It's like living in a Pinterest board come to life, but with way better stories. This isn't just a crash pad; it's a boho-chic sanctuary located in Charleston’s heartbeat, where refinement and whimsy split an iced tea and can't agree on the sugar.

From the granite-drenched bathrooms that'll make your selfies 100% more glamorous, to a kitchen so equipped, it could host its own cooking show (Smeg appliances included, because we're fancy like that), this space was designed for those who laugh in the face of ordinary. Bedrooms? We've got four, each with its own ensuite, because queueing for bathrooms is so last season. And for the culinary inclined or caffeine-dependent, we've thrown in everything but the kitchen sink—though, of course, there’s one of those too, and it’s pretty swanky.

Just a saunter away from Charleston’s culinary and shopping nirvana, you're ideally placed to dive into the city's vibrant scene—or just people-watch with a locally roasted coffee in hand. Whether you’re crashing in one of the queen beds or the Instagram worthy luxey bunk beds (because why should kids have all the fun?), this space promises not just a stay but a story. So come for the luxury, stay for the laughs, and leave with plans to return. Casa Zoë is calling.

The Neighborhood:
Perched on Cannon Street, smack dab in Downtown Charleston's hip design district, you're a hop, skip, and a jump from the city's tastiest haunts. Fancy a culinary adventure? The Grocery, SouthBound, and The Ordinary are just a leisurely stroll away, close enough to smell the aromas but far enough to justify dessert. Craving a morning sugar rush? Sugar Bakeshop is practically your next-door neighbor. And for a sandwich that'll make you feel like part of the family, Ladles is right across the street, serving up the kind of comfort food that hugs you from the inside. Welcome to the neighborhood where good eats are a local sport and your taste buds are the MVP.

Getting Around:
Step lively or tap your app—around here, you're never stuck. Take a leisurely walk to local gems or catch an Uber in a snap for beach trips and city adventures. With everything just a wander away, and rides aplenty, you're set for the simple life in this walker's heaven. Convenience is king, and you're wearing the crown!

Strategies to get the perfect Charleston area rental home experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• Summer is high season in the Charleston area area. To get the best rental home within budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• In the Charleston area area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Charleston area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to select the best vacation rental in the Charleston area area:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Royal Cottage I at Casa Zoë: Award Winning Condé Nast has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. Otherwise, contact the host before booking the home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your family.
• If there's a particular Charleston area attraction you crave, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Document any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of issues.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. 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 home while you are away. Protect your property!
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. 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 your family have a fantastic stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
