Fantastic Experience!
We spent 5 nights at The Palms Suite A and were so impressed by the accommodations and the hospitality! The Suite was beautiful, comfortable, and convenient. Just what we were looking for. Tom & Hannah thought of everything and were just a text away at all times. I couldn’t think of one improvement to ask for. .

5 Stars!
We had a great stay at The Palms. The location was the best and we could walk everywhere. The Palms was spacious, nicely decorated and had everything we could possibly need for a great stay. The outdoor area was beautiful. We stayed with our two teenage sons and their grandparents and we all had plenty of room. Our oldest son plans on going to the College of Charleston next year so hopefully we can stay here many more times when we visit.

Wonderful Charleston Visit!
We recently stayed at The Palms and had a truly wonderful experience. The property was just perfect-not only ideally located for exploring historic/downtown Charleston, but College of Charleston. The neighborhood is fantastic-truly eclectic with so many great coffee shops, restaurants and great places to walk. Tom and Hannah were the ideal hosts and so responsive to and questions and provided great recommendations all throughout our stay. Highly recommend The Palms!

College visit & spring break
We love Charleston, and we have been visiting for years. This time, we were joined by extended family on their spring break, combined with a college visit for my niece. This rental was perfect for us! Knowing it would not be beach weather, we decided to stay in town. The first thing we noticed was that the unit was exceptionally clean. The outdoor area was lovely and comfortable. Everything about the unit was comfortable and beautifully decorated. The location was great and walkable to everything we wanted to do. The owners were accessible, and they provided great resources for the area. Highly recommend!

Perfect Place for College Visit!
My friend and I brought our daughters for a college visit at the College of Charleston. This was a perfect place for us to stay for our party of four and we loved having to r outside space as we had awesome weather! The location was amazing as we were able to walk everywhere and greatly appreciated the convenient parking space to home base our car. The room set up was perfect for us and while we ate out for all of our meals, the kitchen is equipped if we wanted to dine in. We will definitely stay here again when we come back!

Great location /
Wife and three kids (ages 11 - 17) visited for a four day trip. North King St with shops and restaurants are two blocks away. Other sights and areas of King St. are an easy 5-10 min drive. The owners reached out quickly to answer any questions and their instructions were helpful and made the trip a breeze.

Amazing Stay!
Family of 5 adults, first time to Charleston. The home was exactly as described and as the photos showed. Perfect size for us. Small touches were so nice—toiletries to start plus plenty of paper goods. Especially enjoyed the complimentary coffee! Had a small hiccup and the hosts were extremely responsive:) Loved the outdoor area and the porch! Can’t wait to return and would definitely rent this unit again!

Wonderful Place to Stay
Everything was wonderful! Perfect location! We loved the little touches like sound machines in all bedrooms, the record player, uno and other games, etc. My husband, myself, my 22 year old son and 12 year old son fit perfectly and absolutely loved it! The outside patio. Area was amazing and my boys enjoyed playing Cornhole! The kitchen was perfect for me to make a little Thanksgiving dinner in and all dishes were great quality! We had a little mishap with the fire alarm and they responded immediately and got everything taken care of right away! Overall, great property! We were all so sad to leave. Would highly recommend staying here :)

Great Getaway
We enjoyed our stay at the Hidden Oasis. It was a great location; close to everything. The house was very comfortable. It was especially nice meeting the other guests, sharing a bottle of wine. The host shares all information ahead of time that makes check in very easy. Everything needed was supplied. I highly recommend this rental.

Excellent urban dwelling
We’ve traveled a lot and stayed in VRBO properties around the world. This unit easily rates among the very best. There was some late noise, but guess that’s what comes with such a convenient location. We had our own sound machines but each room also had one in the drawer, so that mostly solved the issue. Lovely finishes, comfortable beds, excellent outdoor space, lots of restaurants and bars in easy walking distance….what more could one hope for? Terrific choice for us!

Hidden Gem In Soooo Many Ways!
From the moment I booked through to the end of my stay every detail was amazing! The owners of this property thought of everything…from the coffee, creamer, sweetener and basic spices such as Olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper…I honestly felt a bit of relief on my arrival not having to go get the basics just for a cup of coffee. I travel for work 4-5 days a week and usually stay with Marriott or Hilton. I only VRBO when family travel with me but decided to give this a shot due to high hotel rates. WOW so amazed with this place! Every detail was attended to. I can only say that if you miss a chance to stay in this property…YOU MISSED OUT! It’s close to everything….seriously a 5 minute walk to King Street with numerous shops and restaurants. The courtyard dedicated to just this house was amazing! Loved the front porch sitting and especially loved the fountain while sitting in the swing. I will definitely return and can’t wait to sleep in those AMAZING BEDS AGAIN!!! Well done!!
