Vacation Rentals in South Carolina

South Carolina has some of the finest coastal resorts on the Eastern Seaboard, from Myrtle Beach in the north, to Hilton Head in the south.

The major resorts are full of period homes with roomy terraces overlooking the sea, and space for as many as 12 people to sleep – the ideal spot for a family vacation.

You don't need to limit your search to the resorts in the Palmetto State. Cities like Charleston or Columbia are also great places to stay.
