Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Beaufort, SC vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of SC. To get the best value, consider shifting your family's Beaufort, SC vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Property management companies sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, management companies supply Beaufort, SC area travel guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose your dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Private 4BR\/4.5BA House w\/2 Golf Carts- Close to Beach and Marina has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the host before reserving the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what is best for your vacation.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your life at home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. 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 it a point as part of your review.
