The resort boasts 92 spacious accommodations decorated with beautiful nautical touches and soft coastal palates in a Southern-inspired architectural style. In each room you can enjoy hardwood floors, a spacious balcony, and in our room we even had a fabulously cozy fireplace! The balcony was perfect for watching the sunrise or sunset over the water and downtown Charleston across the harbor.
