Strategies to get the perfect vacation home experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Charleston area area. Reserving a rental home in the Spring or Fall is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• In the Charleston area area, The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many rental management companies supply Charleston area area visitor guides which will include money-saving deals, 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 grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best vacation home in the Charleston area area:

• Start by having your family select trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Blocks to King St has 11 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking pages. If not, call the property management company before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas upon check in. Contact the rental manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to compel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
