Strategies to get the best vacation home experience:

Find your perfect rental home:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Charleston area area. Booking in Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitors guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose a group leader, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Guesthouse Charleston: WEST (242 B) has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available online. If not, email the host before reserving the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More tips for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many problems.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong 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 comments.
