The old wood floors, tall ceilings, original moldings, plasterwork, windows and doors exude a special warmth, character, and appeal that is very difficult to achieve in new construction.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Charleston area rental home experience:

Getting the best value:

• To find the most suitable rental within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions.
• In the Charleston area area, The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitor guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself.
