Recent Charleston vacation rental reviews

Great walkable location to all the downtown/peninsula areas. And great space with the 2 bedrooms and full kitchen living areas over 2 floors
Malcolm (Mac) C. | Mar 2024
The property was perfect. The location was great. Everything was well-maintained and comfortable. We would absolutely stay here again.
Rachelle B. | Mar 2024
This condo was in a great location convenient to everything downtown as well as a beautiful little spot with a great outdoor space. There was some construction going on during the day, but did not have an issue with noise at night. We would definitely stay again!

Explore the exquisite cuisine and breathtaking coastline of South Carolina by booking a vacation rental in Charleston. According to Condé Nast Traveler, Charleston has been ranked the top small city in the world for 2022 by its readers. Whether you prefer taking a carriage ride, visiting museums, or renting a beach house, this Southern gem has something for everyone. You can choose to stay in a condo located at the city center or opt for an oceanfront accommodation situated along the wild dunes of Isle of Palms.

In between boutiques and museums, grab a bite of mouthwatering fried chicken or shrimp and grits.
