Our top Beaufort, SC rental property booking tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Fripp Island. To get the best value, consider shifting your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Beaufort, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home 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 guide magazines have discounts for local accommodations and attractions.

Choosing and booking the right Beaufort, SC vacation home:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group needs. 395 Tarpon Blvd - New to VRBO! Resort Access Included! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you reserve your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your trip.
• If there's a certain Beaufort, SC beach you are enamored with, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Upon arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. 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 advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
