Tips for getting the perfect rental home experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Charleston. To get the best value, change your family's Charleston area vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Charleston area visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides contain deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select your dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Spacious Charleston Home: Only 3 Mi to Folly Beach has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property management company before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• If there's a certain Charleston area beach you are enamored with, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.

Know before you go:

• Get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to compel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
