If I had to choose one word to describe my stay here, it would be phenomenal! From the moment I walked into this amazing, beautiful, historic home, I was greeted with joy by the staff, especially Nicole, who went above and beyond to make my stay delightful. The service was impeccable, with incredible breakfasts, Maria, the chef, made the best poached eggs I’ve ever had. The turn-down service and housekeeping were top-notch, room was spotless and dust free. Tea Time was also amazing, and they wonderfully accommodated my gluten-free needs, making the experience even more special. A special touch was the nightcap waiting for me upon my return in the evening, featuring amazing brandy, port, and sherry. The location is perfect for exploring the best points of interest in historic Charleston, all within walking distance. This has been the most exceptional experience I’ve ever had.

We loved our stay. Its was our first family trip only ladies. Nicky welcomed us in. Such a friendly & family environment. Also Gabby, Maurice kitchen staff, and cleaning staff too. We started with an early morning having breakfast we enjoyed very much, choosing our meals every night. Shopping 🛍️ is close if you love shopping. Cafe place we did most of our stay was walking distance Souralle. Ru Ru we enjoyed ice cafe and pizza. We walking to the pier, pineapple 🍍. We want to return again next year. We loved it . Especially the Jacuzzi we had a blast .. we loved everything from 116 John R. We can't wait to return. Quiet place.
