Strategies to get the very best Hilton Head vacation property experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Hilton Head area. To find the largest rental within budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Hilton Head restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Hilton Head area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides have offers and deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

How to select the best vacation rental in Hilton Head:

• Start by having your group choose trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. Dog & Snowbird-Friendly Gem - AC, WiFi & Boat Parking, Walk to Folly Field Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. If they are not listed, call the property owner before you book the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what is suitable for your vacation.
• If there's a particular Hilton Head destination you love, look for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your peace. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to propel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
