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.

About the host

Hosted by Sally

Host profile image
I have been hosting vacation rentals since 2006

Why they chose this property

I built this Duplex in 2002 and originally rented this side long term. I turned it into the Palmetto Moon Cottage in 2006

What makes this property unique

I've stayed in my Palmetto Moon Cottage, after I turned it into a Vacation home, as I wanted to see if it had everything a guest could need. I live next door. I personally take care of all aspects of this Vacation Home and I believe it shows in all the small details.
