Units A, B, and C are all on 2 levels, with unit A boasting a washer and dryer and 4 tall windows that look down over bustling King Street. Each of these 3 units has central heat and air, WIFI, a living area with a TV, and a half bath downstairs next to a modern kitchen equipped with counter stools, stainless-steel appliances, and cookware. Each unit has two original brick and wood-accented bedrooms, each with a TV, and sharing one full bathroom with a ceramic tiled walk-in shower. It is important to note that the 2 bedrooms in these 3 units can only be reached via a spiral metal staircase.

We refer to the 6 units at 563 King Street collectively as “Narnia”, because of their storied past as home to some of Charleston’s most enthusiastic young revelers, who lovingly dubbed their temporary abode with this fitting moniker in the 1980s and '90s. Narnia remains a magical place where anything can happen, only now it’s been completely remodeled into 6 luxury apartments that are available to rent by the nighttime or week. This group of apartments is housed on the 2nd level of a building that is over 100 years old, so each one features unique old-world construction elements - like exposed brick and antique heart pine floors, blended with shiplap accent walls. These apartments were all freshly refurbished to provide a seamless experience with the interiors of the 21 units in the newly constructed Firetower building, which is attached at the far end of the breezeway.

Each of Narnia’s six apartments is adjacent to a cavernous, open-air deck, which is for the use of Firetower guests only. This common space is furnished with four comfortable conversation areas and has globe-string lights above for pleasant glowing evenings under the nighttime sky.

In addition to this striking social space, the property offers a furnished rooftop deck on top of the new Firetower building (take the outdoor stairs at the end of Narnia’s breezeway) From this vantage point is a handsome, 360-degree panorama of the historic steeples, rooftops, and bridges that define the Holy City’s dramatic skyline.

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal rental experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• In the Charleston area area, The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of SC. To get the most suitable rental for your budget, we suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Charleston area restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable 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 on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Charleston area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby accommodations and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking your prefect Charleston area vacation home:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Wonderful Charleston villa with walkable location near everything has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you book your rental. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your trip.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Know before you go:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
