Strategies to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Summertime is high season in the Charleston area area. To book the most suitable rental home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Charleston area restaurants, tours, and activities. 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• In the Charleston area area, The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Charleston area area magazine upon checking 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 local information, travel guides contain offers and deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

• Choose your vacation dates and max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. New Listing! Live Like a Local, Historic Charleston has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a specific Charleston area destination you are crazy about, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a terrific stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a great time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
