Great stay
We had a great time in Port Royal. The neighborhood cat was a favorite for my two little boys. The space was clean and had most everything we needed. It would be nice to have a mixing bowl but otherwise the kitchen had what we needed. The house is convenient to everything you might want to see. Very enjoyable

Value
Staying a week was cheaper than staying 5 days. Perfect size & location for 1-2 travelers. (Needs more living room seating for more.) Upgraded finishes when renovated, but not as “cushy” as more expensive homes. Had a bug problem because of rainy weather. Property manager responsive. Good value for the cost.

Great getaway home-- highly recommended!
We had a great stay here, close to Beaufort and with easy access to water, restaurants and other downtown attractions. Also, home is immaculate inside, with new kitchen appliances, other amenities & beds are very comfortable. Looks just like the pictures inside. We highly recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a great place to stay in the Beaufort area. Also, Barry was an outstanding host, always available/responsive to our questions or needs.

Exploring the Beaufort SC area
Nice location for our stay in Beaufort. Nice cottage on outskirts of the historic area. Kutchen was supplied with everything we need (except a can opener). For computers challenged folks the televisions need instructions. A friendly cat came to say hello every morning.

Thoroughly disappointed
We arrived on a Friday afternoon and first noticed the mold and mildew on the front door. We looked past that and went in. The home is small, which was fine, and the decor is acceptable. The issues with the home began shortly thereafter. We brought our dog since the home is pet friendly but the backyard has little grass so it was a giant mud pit. In the living room, there is one small couch and one reclining chair. The chair was broken with the cushion falling through and the reclining aspect not working, which was unacceptable for my husband who has back issues and was looking forward to relaxing after the drive in. As the evening fell, we realized that the light on the back porch didn't work, which made letting our dog outside in a mud pit more difficult to deal with and clean up after. Next, we discovered when trying to watch a tv show that the tv had colored streaks running all down it when turned on. We tried to maintain a good attitude but, when planning for the next morning, realized there was no coffee and no basic cooking supplies like salt and pepper or oil. These things are not required, of course, but only added to a poor experience after everything else mentioned. Saturday morning we decided to leave early. I reached out to the property manager and did not receive a reply for over 24 hours. We have stayed in dozens of VRBO's and have never had a less than 4 star experience until this one. We are not hard to please but do expect things to work, at minimum.
