Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to South Beach?
The best time to visit South Beach, South Carolina, is during the shoulder seasons of spring (April to May) and autumn (September to October).

These months offer pleasant weather, with warm temperatures superb for beach activities and exploring the area without the intense heat and humidity of summer. You'll also find fewer crowds during these times, making for a more relaxed experience, whether you're strolling along the quieter stretches of beach or enjoying a meal at a popular restaurant without a long wait.

For those looking to enjoy the full range of water sports and lively beach atmosphere, the summer months (June to August) are also a popular choice. While it's the busiest time, the ocean is at its warmest, and all attractions are in full swing. This period is particularly good for families, as the kids will love the buzzing energy and endless opportunities for swimming and playing in the sand.

Winter (November to March) is the quietest time, with cooler temperatures, though still mild compared to many other regions.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right South Beach hotel for you.
How can I save on a hotel booking in South Beach with Expedia?
One Key™—Expedia's free travel rewards program—gives you instant access to discounts with Member Prices on South Beach hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Booking an Expedia hotel and flight package is another great way to save, where bundling can result in significant savings. *Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
How much is the nightly rate for a hotel in South Beach?
