Rental booking tips:

Money saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal SC. Reserve your rental home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Isle of Palms vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Isle of Palms area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Narrow your rental Search:

• To start, have your family agree to dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Quaint & Cozy Beach Home \/ Minutes Walk to Beach \/ Community Pool & Tennis \/ Dog Friendly! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the host before you book the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a certain Isle of Palms destination you long to visit, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
