How Can I Protect My BASK Away Stay?
Travel Insurance (Recommended)
Travel insurance helps protect your vacation investment from unexpected events like trip cancellations, interruptions, or medical emergencies. It covers prepaid, non-refundable costs if your trip is canceled or interrupted for a covered reason, giving you peace of mind before and during your stay.
We’ve partnered with Seaside Coastal Travel Insurance by Generali Global Assistance, a trusted leader in travel protection. Their plans include coverage for trip cancellations, interruptions, and assistance services. The cost is 7.95% of your total reservation.
If you’ve already purchased travel insurance, please review your plan documents for full details, terms, and conditions. For questions about coverage, contact Generali Global Assistance directly at 866-999-4018.

What Is BASK Away’s Cancellation Policy?
Our payment schedule is as follows:
All payments must be made on or before the due dates to ensure your booking remains confirmed.
Check-in is at 4:00 PM. While we try to go above and beyond to accommodate our guests, we cannot offer early check-ins or late departures. This is to allow our cleaning crews ample time to make sure your home is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before and after your stay. Parking in the accommodation driveway and/or unloading of personal items prior to 4PM is not permitted. Check-out time is 10:00 AM No late check-outs will be permitted.
We understand early check-in can be helpful, but unfortunately, we cannot guarantee it in advance. That said, we do our best to accommodate you when possible!
Here’s what to do:
On the day of your arrival, please reach out to our grounds team to see if your home is ready early. If it is, they’ll be happy to give you an early access code.

BASK Away is committed to providing reasonable accommodation to guests with trained service dogs due to a disability. Service dogs that have been trained to work or perform tasks for individuals with disabilities are always welcome and are not subject to a pet fee. Service dogs must be housebroken, under the control of the guest at all times, and not left alone in the property. Please note that you are responsible for any damages caused by the service dog.
In instances when we have service dogs in a home that is not pet friendly, we will ask if you can you please answer the following questions:
We love that our guests bring their four‑legged friends—ESAs can be a great source of comfort! However, in South Carolina:
ESAs aren’t considered “service animals.”
Service animals must be specially trained to perform disability‑related tasks. Emotional Support Animals provide companionship and support but don’t fall under the same legal definition.
Standard pet policies and fees apply.
If you stay in a pet‑friendly home, any pet deposit or fee is due just like it would be for a typical pet.
No exceptions for non–pet‑friendly properties.
If a home is designated as non–pet‑friendly, we’re unable to accommodate ESAs there—even with documentation.
If you believe you’ve left something behind, please contact our grounds team after 8 AM on Monday. They’ll be happy to assist you and help coordinate the return of any lost items.
