Tips to get the very best rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• In the Charleston area area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Summertime is high season in Charleston. Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. 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 and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Charleston area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Choosing the perfect rental home in Charleston:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Historic Home 2 Blocks To King, Backyard Patio has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. If not, reach out to the property management company before reserving your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or charges could be applied to your contract.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.

Tips to have a smooth stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.

• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to drive future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
