Questions, answered
- What happens after I click Book direct?
- A quick step asks who's coming and how to reach you. Then you're taken to our booking system's secure payment page showing the same itemized total as your quote; nothing is charged until you confirm there. Once payment completes, your dates are locked on our calendar (the one Airbnb and Vrbo sync from) and you get a confirmation right away. Check-in details like directions, lockbox, and Wi-Fi arrive before arrival.
- Is this really the same home as on Airbnb?
- Yes. Same house, same calendar, same hosts. You can compare it against our Airbnb listing side by side. Booking direct just removes the platform between us.
- How much does booking direct save?
- Three ways. Nightly rates are 3% lower when you book direct, taken off automatically in your quote with no code to enter. The cleaning fee is $150 here against $177.51 on Airbnb, because that one has to cover the fee Airbnb charges us and this one does not. And Airbnb adds a guest service fee, 14.1% to 16.5% of the booking subtotal by Airbnb's own figures, that does not exist here at all. On a stay with $1,500 of nightly rent, that is about $237 of service fee you skip at the low end, $45 off the rent, and $27.51 off the cleaning, about $349 less with the same 13% tax applied to both, which Airbnb charges on its service fee as well. Pick dates and your quote shows an estimated Airbnb total for the same stay next to the direct total.
- What do nightly rates run?
- From about $166 a night in the slow season to $450 and up in peak weeks. Whatever the season, booking direct takes 3% off nightly rates automatically. Pick dates on the calendar for your exact total.
- How many people can stay?
- 8 in total, with up to 6 adults and up to 5 children. The bed-by-bed breakdown is in the home details above. A party larger than that won't price on the calendar, so check the numbers before you pick dates.
- Are pets allowed?
- No. The cottage is pet-free, no exceptions, which keeps it reliably comfortable for guests with allergies. Traveling with a service animal? Email stay@charleston.vacations before booking and we'll sort out the details.
- Who do I talk to if something comes up?
- Us: James & Natalie. You'll have our cell from booking to checkout, and stay@charleston.vacations reaches us anytime. No support queue, no platform inbox.
