• Wish to stay away from the crowds? The off-peak seasons frequently offer phenomenal rates on weekly rentals.

How to Book a Rental Home

You might be surprised to discover how many rentals are available at your destination. With such a big selection, guests are certain to come across a vacation home that fits their wishes and budget.

Rental homes are usually owner operated or managed by property management companies. Property owners typically select management companies to facilitate online advertising, cleaning and regular maintenance.

Here are some tips and suggestions to help you understand the rental search and booking process.

Searching for and reserving the perfect rental property:

Before you start to book "Palmetto Moon Cottage/Short walk to a sm beach/ Now using UV/Ozone lamps", review our short checklist of factors to consider.

The Earlier, The Better

Beaufort, SC rental homes start booking very early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is usually recommended, whenever possible. Many households decide to begin their search during Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year gatherings.

Find your Area and Choose Dates

Begin by deciding which particular area of Beaufort, SC you'd like to browse, and the approximate travel dates.

Bedrooms and Bed Sizes Matter

Confirm who is going, and how many/what particular bedroom arrangement you will need. Remember that many rental homes advertise maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in the living room. It is important to figure out what is most appropriate for the party. Most rental home listings will summarize each of the unit's specific bedrooms and beds.

Make a Spending Limit

Many vacation homes are marketed with a price range. Confirm the rate for your selected week. It may be at the high end of the range. If multiple individuals or family members are sharing the cost, check that each party knows their responsibilities and has approved a maximum they are prepared to contribute. A single individual in your group needs to be in charge of collecting repayments and agreeing to responsibility for the whole rental payment at time of booking.

Its All About Amenities

What home features is your family interested in? Do you primarily desire a vacation rental with a pool, spa tub or volleyball court? Will the property need to be beachfront, the downtown area, or near restaurants? Are sheets included with the rental, or do you need to take your own? Make a list of prioritized "necessities and wishes" from your party to help narrow your search to the perfect property.

Accessability

Do individual people in your party have special needs? Be sure to remember and ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment requirements..

What About Furry Family Members?

Remember to include your furrry friends. While quite a few vacation homes permit animals, guidelines and fees fluctuate per property. Type of pet, size and breeds could be limited. Be sure you study descriptions and contracts carefully. Additional charges may apply when pets are added.

Where to Search

Several websites exist to match clients with rental owners.. Together with Homeaway, VRBO and Tripadvisor, we suggest searching Google for "Beaufort, SC local rental homes" for local property management companies. Local vacation rental management companies take pride in a top-quality rental experience.

Negotiate the Price

When you've identified the rentalhome of your dreams, double check to make sure your trip dates are available.

While not true for all rental properties, many rental owners and property managers will negotiate rates. If they are unwilling to budge on a highly-desirable trip, try getting an additional night. Your easiest chance for a reduced rate is changing to a less desirable week.

Study the Entire Contract

Find out which of the following is included in your quoted rate:

• Utility bills
• WIFI Access
• Telephone service
• Pool and hot tub heating
• Pay Per View Movies
• Daily Cleaning (If Available)
• Trash Pickup (and which day?)
• Maintenance (get a phone number)
• Check in & Check Out Key Exchange
• Parking requirements

In addition to the standard price, travelers will need to pay state taxes when renting "Palmetto Moon Cottage/Short walk to a sm beach/ Now using UV/Ozone lamps", in addition to various other additional fees which might be mandatory based upon their situation, including a dog charge, earlier check-in or later check-out fee, or a pool heating fee for private pool usage during the fall or spring months.

Cancellations Happen

Cancellation policies are different with each rental. Rental home management companies and home owners typically offer their guests the option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which typically costs between 1% - 5% of the base rental home cost, can provide vacationers with reimbursement of their vacation costs (and subsequent rental costs) for any nights missed resulting from personal medical emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as a unexpected hotel stay or extra gas.

Reserve your Rental Property

When everything looks right, it's finally time to sign on the dotted line. Bear in mind that most rental contracts will require a significant rental deposit and/or security deposit to cover the home owner.

Know Who to Call

Make sure to get the property manager's contact phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the contact's information in your smart phone and wallet.

Good luck on reserving your vacation rental! You're on your way to a fantastic vacation!

During your Stay
