Strategies to get the perfect vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserve your rental home in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Beaufort, SC visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have discounts for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to pick the best rental home in the Beaufort, SC area:

• Begin by selecting the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Fire Pit + Yard: Charming Port Royal Home! has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking websites. If not, email the host before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• During arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a great vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
