Our top Charleston area rental home tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your rental property in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve 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 host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Charleston area visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain discounts for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to select the perfect rental home in Charleston:

• Choose dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Water views & only 2 miles to downtown has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the host before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to establish which bed configuration is optimal for your group.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More considerations:

• Get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your visit, note any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the host immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
