How to get the best deal on your rental

• Many rental managers and rental homes supply Isle of Palms area travel guides which include coupons, either offered individually by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the local merchant itself. These guides may provide an excellent start to your rental search.
• Just want to steer clear of the crowds and get a better price? Off-peak rates are usually a fraction of maximum prices.
• Active Duty and veterans of the U.S. Armed forces may qualify for financial savings. Make sure to confirm with property owner to see if your vacationing crew is eligible for a reduced price.
• Some rentals are practically designed to serve specific guests, whether it's downtown homes with weekly fishing pier passes, city-center homes with walkable access to night life or waterfront homes that feature their own kiteboarding launching areas. If there's a particular Isle of Palms activity you simply love, be on the lookout for rental properties that cater especially to you.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers the chance to purchase trip insurance coverage. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base vacation rental rate, provides guests reimbursement of their rental expenses for any missed as a consequence of medical-related emergencies or weather, and additionally ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or expenses, like an unplanned motel stay or additional gas. Trip insurance can be a bank account-saver if the unforseen happens (heaven forbid!).

Seasoned Isle of Palms vacationers have figured out a number of tips and tricks over the years when it comes to renting rental homes, however most beginners will be happy to realize that several "strategies" are in plain sight, if you recognize where they should look.

Finding and reserving the perfect rental home:

Before you book "'Casa Flamingo' ~ Oceanfront Dreamhouse! 8 bedroom, Sleeps 20, Private Pool", go through our short list of considerations.

Begin Your Search Early

Isle of Palms rental properties book several months (and up to a year) in advance. To find the best selection, begin your planning and search 6-12 months before your vacation. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years are excellent times to find and book your vacation rental home..

Find your Area and Determine Dates

Begin by choosing which particular area of Isle of Palms you would like to explore, and the determine travel dates.

How Many Beds?

Confirm who is joining, and how many/what particular bedroom setup you'll need. Be aware that most homes list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in the living room. You will need to determine what is suitable for your party. Specific descriptions of bedrooms and beds are usually available online. Otherwise, speak to the property owner before you book.

Have a Spending Limit

Many vacation rentals are marketed with a price range. Confirm the price for your preferred trip. It might be at the top end of the range. If a few individuals or family members are sharing the cost, check to make sure everyone understands their responsibility and has approved a maximum they are prepared to pay. Most rental contracts require a single individual to be in charge of the whole reservation.

Make a List of "Wants" and "Necessities"

What home features is your group looking for? Is a screened deck a requirement? Will the unit need to be beach front, in town, or near night life? Are extras like beach chairs, grills, beach umbrellas, carts or coolers available and included with your rental charge? Gather a list of "needs and wishes" from your company to help filter your search to the perfect rental.

Special Things to consider

Often times the older generation has trouble with staircases. If wheel chair entry, elevators, pool lifts or other special equipment is necessary, factor that into your search. Nearly all rental postings will include a list of amenities.

Go ahead and Take the Dog

Be sure to include your best friend! Animals are welcome at many rental properties, but policies differ. Type of animal, size and dog breeds might be restricted. Study your agreement very carefully! Extra charges may apply when animals are added.

It Is Time to Search

. In addition to Homeaway, VRBO and Tripadvisor, we recommend searching Google for "Isle of Palms local rental homes" for local rental management companies. Apart from offering distinctive rental properties, local agencies provide excellent service..

Negotiate the Price

Re-read the description to ensure that the vacation rental has everything you need. If it is lacking, the property management company might know of comparable homes that fit your style and budget..

Although not true for all rental properties, many property owners and property managers will make a deal on rates. If they are unwilling to budge on a peak-season week, try asking for an additional night. Off-peak season offers your greatest chance to negotiate a lower rate.

Study the Contract

Learn which of the following is included in your quoted rate:

• Power bills
• Internet Connectivity
• Phone service
• Pool and hot tub heating
• Cable and pay-per-view TV

Book It

When everything seems right, it's finally time for you to sign on the dotted line. You will probably have to submit a security deposit at time of reservation.

Get Contact Details

Put the property manager's contact info into your smart phone and wallet for easy access to answers throughout your stay.

Congratulations! All that is left is making the most of your vacation!

During your Stay

• Take notes of any damage soon after you arrive. If you find wear and tear, or if fixes are required call the rental manager immediately. This can protect against conflicts during checkout.
• You could need guidance for a gas fireplace, Television or spa. Call your property manager. They are there to help. A quick phone call prevents many headaches.
• Please remember to respect your nearby neighbors. Permanent residents often times live within earshot. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a trip a little more relaxing.
• Ask a local. Natives can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best chicken wings, have a great date night, or the best places for wildlife?
• Be sure to protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental home locked up while you are away, exactly like you would at home.

Checking Out

• Clean up a little. Even though you're paying a cleaning fee, The rental really should be in good shape. Kitchen sinks full of pots and pans, excessive sand on the floor and sticky messes should really be taken care of before you leave.
• Be sure to walk through the rental home one final time and check for property damage. If you can, do this walk-out review with the property manager present. If the property owner is not available, be sure to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you enjoy your rental home? Just about all rental home management companies and rental search sites permit travellers to give comments. If the vacation rental and/or property manager was excellent, they will appreciate your recommendations. If something was unacceptable and they did not correct it in a practical manner, or when the rental home was not as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.

Use Your Experience

Does everybody want to return next year? Hopefully everything turned out to be wonderful and you're all set to reserve the same property for your next vacation. Maybe the rental property wasn't perfect, and you will better understand how to perfect your search next time.
