Tips to get the best Fripp Island rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal SC. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Beaufort, SC area travel guides which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, SC area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Castaway Cottage - pet friendly, close to beach access, golf cart included, 399 Tarpon Boulevard has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If not, contact the host before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

During your stay:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Make a record of any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
