How to find the best Charleston rental home experience:

When to book a Charleston area rental home & When to go:

• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Summer is high season in Charleston. To get the best value, try changing your family's Charleston area vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies supply Charleston area area visitors guides which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Begin by choosing a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. The Iris, Signature Suite has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before booking your home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• If there's an individual Charleston area destination you are crazy about, search for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute is filed.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to stimulate more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
