Tricks and tips for getting the best Fripp Island rental experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Summer months are high season in Fripp Island. To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Beaufort, SC area visitors guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the perfect rental in the Beaufort, SC area:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. Sandy Feet Retreat - Five Bedroom House, Sleeps 15 has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available online. If they are not listed, email the host before booking your home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your vacation family.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Advice for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• Document any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if damages are assessed.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your peace and quiet. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
