The Palmetto Moon Cottage is so pretty, clean and comfortable! It has everything you could possibly need....truly a home away from home. It was right across the bridge from Parris Island, so it was an easy drive to watch our grandson's graduation. You can walk to restaurants and shops. Sally and Buddy are wonderful, thoughtful hosts. We definitely recommend staying at this sweet cottage!

We had a great week! The home was comfortable, clean, and well appointed. The kitchen was well stocked. We especially enjoyed the coffee station. The location was really convenient to shops, restaurants, and ice cream! The neighborhood was quiet and people were very friendly. We love Port Royal!

Great place for our family! Very clean, well decorated and everything we needed. From the great coffee bar to the extra beach towels & chairs. We enjoyed walking to Sands beach each evening. As well as GiGi's Restaurant within walking which proved to have a good outdoor area for the kids. Would definitely return to Palmetto Moon if in the area again. Great location near historic Beaufort for local shopping.
