What to Bring

COURTESY CONVENIENCE PACKAGE: Travelers have a lot to pack for their beach vacation and prefer to purchase the basic necessities after they get here. For your convenience, Litchfield Real Estate supplies your vacation rental with a complimentary “starter package” consisting of a few essentials like toilet paper, soap and paper towels. They won’t last the week, but they will help get your vacation started on the right foot!

FURNISHINGS AND EQUIPMENT: Furnishings and equipment in all Litchfield Real Estate vacation rentals are provided by the owner. All vacation rentals are equipped for normal daily living, including kitchenware for cooking and eating, pillows, and bed coverings. All rentals have central heating and air, cable TV, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker and washer/dryer. Litchfield Retreat condo rentals have access to shared laundry facilities on site.

Guests are asked to leave all furnishings in the same arrangement as found upon arrival. Should it be necessary to schedule a service call to move heavy or awkward furniture back in place, the cost will be billed to the Guest in addition to any repair costs for related damages.

LINENS: All beds are made and fresh towels are provided in ALL of our rental homes. Our linen package includes 2 bath towels and 1 wash cloth per number of people the home sleeps, 1 bath mat and 2 hand towels per bathroom, and 2 kitchen towels. Should you require additional linens during your stay, rentals are available at our office for an extra fee. Beach towels are not provided.

Linens and bed-making are additional costs for monthly rental stays.

WHAT TO BRING: By staying with Litchfield Real Estate, your “Things to Bring” list just got shorter! Our full linen package is included with all guest stays in our vacation rentals. See what’s included in the section above.

Additionally, if you don’t have the time or space to pack everything, you will be pleased to discover that many of our rental homes provide a $250 beach gear credit by VayKLife. Our partnership with VayKLife is designed to make your vacation extra FUN and EASY. They offer a wide selection of quality beach equipment with delivery.

Even if your choice rental home does not include the Beach Gear credit, we recommend VayKLife for all your beach gear needs. Our guests receive 10% off on quality equipment ordered through VayKLife. They will deliver straight to your home without the hassle of bringing your own.

The VayKLife team provides full customer service and wants your vacation to be perfect! You can reach them by email at support@vayklife.com or by phone 888-577-7412.

GOLF CARTS: Our vacation rentals do not come with golf carts, but you may want to rent one to use during your stay. Be sure you know the rules and county laws.

Vacation rental guests are not permitted to keep a golf cart at any of the Inlet Point condos, Litchfield Retreat condos or high-rise oceanfront condos at Litchfield by the Sea. Only insured and licensed drivers are permitted to operate golf carts in our area. Your golf cart must display the SC Dept. of Transportation permit. Golf carts may not travel farther than 2 miles from the rental home address and are not allowed on the streets after dark. Violations of county ordinances can incur fines up to $525.

GRILLING: Many homeowners provide grills at their rental home. Check the rental description to see if one is provided. Grilling is not allowed on decks, porches or balconies, under any portion of a raised home, or near siding or vegetation. PLEASE BE COURTEOUS AND LEAVE THE GRILL CLEAN FOR THE NEXT GUEST. Call us if you do not have grill cleaning tools at your rental.

If your rental home does not provide a grill, local rental vendors make it easy to have one during your stay. See list of suggested providers above.
