Strategies to get the perfect Beaufort, SC rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal SC. To find the best vacation home for your budget, we recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Beaufort, SC restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Beaufort, SC visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local shops and restaurants.

Filter your rental search:

• Begin by selecting your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Luxurious Family Retreat - Hidden Palm on Fripp Island has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure that damages are not linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the host immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to drive new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
