Location, location, location! Great find, perfectly located near downtown. It has everything you need & even though we were gone a ton, we still got to enjoy some downtime at the place at night, watching movies & chilling. The stairs are tough though so be careful and the toilet is very small but for the price, it is very manageable. We will definitely try and stay here on our next trip down.

Perfect place for a “home base” when exploring the area around Beaufort….just right for two people. The home was well appointed, providing all the basic consumables, like laundry detergent, dryer sheets, dishwashing pods & liquid, paper towels, & toilet paper. There were beach towels provided, as well as bikes for exploring. It was a cozy, comfortable place to stay, and great value for the price! Bonus: designated parking space!

We had a very nice stay. The apartment was private and quiet and the location was great too as everything was easy to get to. The rooms were clean and had basic needed supplies. There was also lots of info about the area in the home to browse which was so nice as we navigated Beaufort. The Hunting Island park pass was amazing! I would highly recommend staying here!

Quaint 1 bedroom room condo. Well maintained. Stocked with most common things needed. We had some issues with the pillows options either too thick and hard or too soft and thin but that’s a personal preference.

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Lewis (owners daughter)

Host profile image
I am a long-term resident of Beaufort SC. I currently reside on St Helena Island, SC with my wife, Beverly, a former teacher. Our two daughters and two grandchildren also live here in Beautiful Beaufort by the Sea.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property in 1987 and renovated the entire building in 1997. The original building was built in the mid 1950's and has been upgraded several times. Suites A & B have always been long-term rentals and beginning in September 1, 2016 we upgraded and converted them to furnished short-term rentals.



What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this building because of the cool breezes, large magnolias and Spanish moss covered trees. The building is located in the historic district on Carteret St. at Bellamy Curve and has sweeping views of the Intercostal Waterway. There is reserved parking in front of the entry door but if by chance it is taken there is an abundance of available parking located behind the building..
