Rental home tips:

How to get the best rental value:

Summer months are the most expensive season in the Charleston area area. Booking in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
In the Charleston area area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
Hosts sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
Find a copy of your local Charleston area visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, travel guides have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Finding the best rental in Charleston:

Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and select a max budget.
Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. The Nicholas Veranda King Suite - Walk to King has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available online. Otherwise, email the property manager before reserving your rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
Does your family require special amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.

During your stay:

Be sure you get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the host immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of problems.
Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would back home.
Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to stimulate future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
