Getting the best Charleston vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Booking in the Spring or Fall is a great way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitors guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Begin by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. The Petite Helene! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the host before booking the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking

Some things to know before you go:

• Get the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of problems.
• Lock your vacation home while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
