Our top Isle of Palms rental booking tips and tricks:

When to visit & When to book:

• Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• In the Charleston area area, The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Property management companies sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area travel guides which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• First, have your family decide on dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Charming Beach Home w\/in Wild Dunes Resort with Hot Tub! Easy Walk to Beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before booking the home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is right for your vacation family.
• If there's a certain Charleston area beach you simply love, browse homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• At Check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• At departure, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific time? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
