Location is perfect. The accommodation was immaculate and very comfortable. Communication with TideWatch Vacations is easy; in my experience, they always pick up the phone. The off-street parking provided is a must in this area. I'm a little hesitant to post a stellar review because I'm hoping it will be available for us again next year! :)
The house was beautiful, excellent location close to the waterfront, and very clean. Property management was always quick to respond.And check in was easy. Will come back again!
This was a wonderfully cozy spot to stay with great access to everything! We walked everywhere! The air was crisp and it always felt great to get back to the warmth of the loft and have a nice cup of coffee.
The location is excellent. It's an easy walk to Bay St shops and restaurants. The stairway is very narrow and feels a bit dangerous. The loft was clean and bed comfortable.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the excellent location and found the loft clean and comfortable. Your feedback about the stairway is invaluable, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We strive to create memorable experiences for all our guests, and your insights help us improve. We hope to welcome you back for another stay soon!
Everything about our stay in Beaufort exceeded our expectations. The property and location were both excellent. We would definitely come back and reserve it again in the future.
The house was in a great location - only one block away from all the shops and restaurants on Bay St. The top floor apt that we stayed on had a lovely front porch to sit on and watch the horse carriages go by. The inside of the unit was spacious and well-maintained. Very clean and organized, with plenty of room. I hope to return and stay here again!The only thing I would have altered is the bedding. The top bed cover felt more like a rug than a blanket. Maybe consider changing that for future travelers, or at least advising guests to bring a soft blanket for their own personal use.
The comfortable loft apartment is located near downtown and water among historic homes and sites. The bed was comfy. Games, books, and puzzles were available. Enjoyed our stay. 😊
Wonderful Location to Explore and Experience Beaufort
This is a wonderful location to walk about Beaufort with easy driving access all around the area. During our two-week stay, we really got to experience life in Beaufort, get to know locals, and live in the historic area with all the sites and sounds of the neighborhood. Clean, well stocked kitchen and laundry.
This wonderful apartment is clean, comfortable and charming and the perfect location. We could park right behind the house and immediately explore Beaufort on foot. We loved the front porch for coffee in the morning and relaxing before dinner. Deep tub for a soak after a long day and a very comfortable bed! The hosts were very accommodating when we needed to make a last minute change to our stay which really saved our weekend. I would love to rent this apartment again in the future!
We have stayed at this location twice now and would definitely stay again. Can not beat the location, live oaks that line the street out front, historic home feel. The only thing to be cautious about is there are narrow stairs going from 1st floor porch to 2nd floor porch. Not an issue for us but an elderly couple could struggle. I am not sure it mentions this in advertisement.
The place was super clean and the location in downtown Beaufort is perfect. The suite was actually much more roomy than the on line posting showed and it had all the essentials, from kitchen items to games.
This was my wife's b'day weekend and she wanted a change of scenery. We were pleasantly surprised with the space and it's proximity to the Riverfront. Also, this place was spotless!! Like pristinely clean. We hope to return again and again!
This property was exactly as described, very clean and organized, provided all the kitchen/bath basics and more, and offered easy access to historic Beaufort on foot.
Definitely will recommend -- do think that it should be clear that the outside steps to this 2nd floor loft are steep.
807 Craven is centrally situated, within walking distance to the main shopping area and many restaurants and cafes.
The place is very clean, with modern amenities. It does involve stairs.
Management were very accommodating and responded quickly when there was a concern.
Highly recommend.
This is a marvelous gem in an absolutely ideal spot. I enjoyed it for a solo getaway for a few days. Very well maintained, clean, check in was super easy and communication was great. Off street parking very helpful if a little tricky to find in the dark on the first visit! This is an historic property so be prepared for a skinny staircase to get up to it and to climb into a clawfoot tub for bath or shower. Bed was very comfortable, kitchen had everything I needed, washer and dryer are newer models that worked great. I highly recommend and would absolutely stay there again!
