Step through the classic white facade, and past huge contemporary glass panes for a stylish sage green, gold, and natural palette. The kitchen is fresh and contemporary, with everything you need to cook from scratch for your big group. Serve your spreads on the modern-boho dining table, with its pretty rattan chairs. The dark-honey floors will take you to several comfy lounges – all kitted out with big windows and green views. The grounds are just as impressive and beautiful. Serene and private, you'll be surrounded by giant oaks and plenty of space for a party or small wedding under the fairy lights. The home is also the dream location – super close to the airport, downtown Charleston, and three sandy beaches. This place makes for one stylish South Carolina getaway.

With its white clapboard exterior and powder-blue window shutters, this traditional home is the belle of the ball in Charleston. Step into a Southern scene of four-poster beds, floral wallpaper and palm prints in each of the bedrooms. While there is plenty of old-school charm in this townhouse, its recent refurbishment included some modern pops, like glamorous marble bathrooms with gold accents. In the living space, a kitchen, sofas and banquette seating are perfect for group debriefs after a long day. For a real taste of this part of the world, nab one of the wicker seats on the veranda for sundowners – preferably of the bourbon kind – before wandering a short distance to one of the city's famous restaurants or bars.

Suburban Haven

Single-Level Home

Neatly tucked away at the back of the lot, this picturesque home offers privacy from the main road. Even as you approach, you’ll be smitten with the Southern characteristics that define it. A porch swing invites guests to enjoy late nights on the verandah, while the lime green door adds a playful touch of colour. Inside, the exposed trusses serve as a reminder of the area’s rich history and with a gentle colour scheme of whites and beige, there’s a real sense of calm. The kitchen is fully equipped and four wishbone chairs line the bar, adding a modern touch to its traditional bones. But we know you didn’t come to Charleston just to stay indoors – even if the indoors are as charming as these ones. Lucky for you, you’re just one block from Upper King Street with its array of shops and restaurants, while Historic Charleston is less than a twenty-minute walk away.

Lime Green Wish

This historic home has been beautifully brought to life by its Charleston-native hosts. Immediately you’re welcomed by the traditional panelled exterior, the polished beams and hardwood floors that run throughout. Then, you’re wowed by the luxurious stylish design details. There’s lots of space to spread out, with two cosy living and dining areas, both with their own kitchens. The master bedroom opens onto a first-floor porch, perfect for a quiet nightcap. And we love the vast, leafy courtyard garden, with plenty of seating and space to enjoy good weather. After you’ve made yourself at home, walk just one block to the eclectic Upper King street. Soak up its colourful, characterful buildings and discover some of Charleston’s best bars and restaurants. 

Rocking Chair Residence

It can sometimes be difficult to find a home for a big group getaway – the balance between communal spaces and private corners is always a tricky one, but this home definitely gets it right. Or perhaps we should say homes, as you'll find yourselves spread across two separate buildings, with a shared garden and courtyard between them. The impressive bedrooms allow you to shut the door, recharge your batteries and enjoy a moment of peace and quiet when you need to. Conversely, the large living rooms and, of course, the outdoor seating area provide plenty of room for parties and chatting into the night. The interiors are pleasingly minimalist, with hardwood floors and luxury furnishings giving the space an air of sophistication as well as comfort. Downtown Charleston is within easy walking distance – all its bars and restaurants are just a ten-minute stroll away, so heading out for dinner and drinks is as simple as walking down the street.


Ain't She Sweet

Spanning two floors, this elegant home embraces its historic setting while offering 21st-century luxuries. Warm and welcoming from the moment you arrive, you'll find a whitewashed living area with contrasting window frames, dining chairs and accent tables. Upstairs, the serene bedrooms boast traditional characteristics that further the theme of championing past and present, with wooden beams, original hardwood floors and exposed brick fireplaces providing eye-catching charm in abundance. Outside, you'll find a beautiful shared garden and terrace where you can dine alfresco under ancient Charleston trees while you watch the sunset. If you decide to venture out, you’re just one block from Upper King Street with its wide selection of shops, restaurants and bars.

Checkered

Welcome to small but charming Charleston, once again topping Condé Nast Traveler's Readers' Choice Awards. Whether you’re here to explore its colonial architecture, tuck into excellent Creole and BBQ food or savour the blossoming cocktail scene, you’re going to need somewhere to stay smack bang in the heart of the buzz. This home offers this plus elegantly designed spaces, a fully equipped kitchen and – best of all – en-suite shower rooms in al four bedrooms. The open-plan living and dining area is on the cosy side and ideal for a group of four to six guests, with plush grey sofas, velvet bar stools and a humming vintage-style ceiling fan for that quintessential Southern vibe.

Dixie Chic

Located on the second floor of a restored wood-fronted home in the heart of Charleston’s Cannonborough-Elliotborough neighbourhood, this home boasts an enviable position and charming interiors. Exposed trusses add an element of drama to the whitewashed living area and, thanks to its open concept, it’s also a lovely space in which to relax and spend quality time as a group. The crisp colour scheme continues into the bedrooms, where metal bed frames and unique side tables offer the only contrast to the otherwise pristine, white interiors. This home is close to the handsome streets of Historic Charleston (a 20-minute walk away) and Upper King Street sits just a few blocks away, offering an abundance of restaurants, bars and shops.

Rockfish

This home may look traditional on the outside, but inside it's very much shaking things up. Slow Southern days unwind on the pastel painted veranda, with its rocking chairs and swing – the perfect spot to get lost in a good book or natter with the rest of your group over an iced tea. Inside, exposed brick fireplaces warm the white-panelled living room, while the decadent bathrooms have been gilded with gold accents. The mix of old and new continues in the bedrooms, with four poster beds sitting underneath exposed beams and quirky chandeliers. With sumptuous decor like this, sweet dreams are practically guaranteed. A short walk will take you to historic King Street, where you can peruse the boutiques, indulge in the high-end restaurants or hop between the the lively bars. 

Cotillion

Embracing past and present, as all Charleston homes should, a careful balance of contemporary southern living with traditional features gives this home an elegant feel. Featuring beautiful hardwood floors, exposed beams and customary shutters, you’ll feel grounded in this historic location. Of course, it wouldn’t be a true southern home without an enviable porch, fittingly adorned with beautiful rocking chairs, perfect for lazy summer nights. Guests are also welcome to enjoy the gracefully landscaped garden and terrace, shared with neighbours. Located just one block from Upper King Street, you’ll find an abundance of shops, bars and restaurants in the surrounding neighbourhood and Charleston's historic downtown area is just a twenty minute walk away. 

Southern Charm

Just behind Upper King Street, this home benefits from a great location and plenty of peace and quiet. Part of a larger complex of homes, there is a lovely shared garden for residents to use, and with plenty of ancient trees, you won’t be running out of shady corners either. Inside, the home is a perfect example of southern style. Clean walls, bright whites and light fabrics create a living area that is perfect for hosting and entertaining in this warm climate. Upstairs, four bedrooms provide moments of solitude. You’re just a twenty-minute walk from Charleston’s historic downtown area; King Street, just one block from this home, buzzes with shops, restaurants and bars. If you fancy venturing out and exploring the area’s many beaches, Folly Beach is just a short drive away and offers endless stretches of golden sand.

Hominy

Arriving at this home is a bit like falling into Charleston’s version of The Secret Garden – a traditional shopfront gives very little indication of the impressive homes that sit behind it. Part of a larger complex, there’s a beautifully landscaped communal garden and terrace for guests to enjoy when the weather is just right. Step inside to find a careful balance of traditional southern style with modern furnishings for the 21st century traveller. Although the kitchen isn't huge, the open-plan layout of the ground floor makes it a delight to socialise and host in. Plus, you're located just one block from Upper King Street with its abundance of excellent restaurants, bars and shops. You're also just a twenty-minute walk from the Charleston Historic District, with its fascinating landmarks, and a short drive will take you to the sands of Folly Beach. 

Carolina Wren

Located just outside of Charleston's historic downtown area and close to the shops, restaurants and bars of King Street, this home is in an enviable position within the city. And just like its surroundings, the building itself is steeped in history. Built in 1885, it boasts picturesque porches, hardwood floors and a crisp colour scheme. The kitchen is eye-catching with its bright green cabinets, and offers a bold contrast to the elegant Art Deco-inspired living area. Our favourite element, however, is the veranda. No trip to the southern states is complete without at least some of the relaxation taking place on a traditional covered porch, and this home offers a charming one where you can sit and while away the hours with a cool drink. 

Square Dance

On a picturesque street of swaying palm trees sits this traditional Victorian home. Built in 1885, it has a square, symmetrical exterior, covered porches, high ceilings and exposed beams. Inside, however, the home has been brought bang up to date. A modern kitchen with moody cabinets set the tone for this family home, which casually blends past and present design styles. The living area is just big enough to comfortably seat its eight guests andthere's a wonderful outdoor porch. Upper King Street, with its wide selection of restaurants, bars and shops, is just one block away. Historic downtown Charleston is a little farther away but is no less accessible. Hop in a taxi to be there in moments or make the short twenty-minute walk to admire the city’s rich history.

Summer Duck

Espresso Machine

With ample space and chic, comfortable furniture, Cameo Pink is a practical and stylish option for a getaway with family or friends – and if you’re travelling with a bigger group, you can also rent the house next door. The flowing, open layout and great natural light make it a lovely place to spend time in day and night, and the rocking chairs on the porch are perfect for chatting as the sun sets or just relaxing with a book. You’ll be located in hip Park Circle, a fifteen-minute walk away from many of its eclectic restaurants and bars. When you feel like taking a dip, you can get to the beaches of Isle of Palms and Sullivan's Island in twenty minutes by car.

Between the wildlife-filled waterways and historic plantation homes of James Island, this rustic Charleston hideaway offers intimacy and seclusion. Its bright, minimalist interiors reflect the gentle rhythm of southern life, with hardwood floors harking back to days of tradition. The open-plan kitchen and dining area, with surf-style motifs, is a reminder that Folly Beach isn’t far and is perfect for preparing meals and whipping up a round of bourbon cocktails to enjoy out in the garden. A blissful oasis of wildlife, the half-acre of garden sees azaleas and magnolias in bloom. The big hammock is ideal for unwinding under the gentle shade and slowing right down. When you’re in the mood for exploring, the location is ideal. You’re well-placed for both the coast and the bustle of downtown. Why not enjoy a lazy day at Folly Beach, a fifteen-minute drive in one direction, before heading out to taste Charleston’s tantalising food scene, fifteen minutes in the other direction.

This waterfront retreat is in a beloved location on Folly Beach, facing Ashley River. Admire sunrises, sunsets, and beautiful water views – see if you can spot dolphins – from the sun porch and gazebo. When you’re not admiring the view, you can explore the area on foot or by bike – your host generously provides bikes as well as kayaks and a paddleboard. You can also fish and crab from the dock. The house is perfect for a family, with a cosy living space, a fully equipped kitchen, and three beautiful bedrooms. Historic Charleston is just a twenty-minute drive away.

River Reach

Free Parking

Located in the laid back neighbourhood of FreeMoreWest, the building is surrounded by leafy parks, local food markets and art galleries, while being a mere 10 minutes from lively Uptown Charlotte. Pack your bags, bring your furry friend (they’re allowed to come too) and make yourself comfortable. Cleverly designed, this apartment is remote working ready, with a dedicated desk area and ultra high-speed wi-fi. The open living space combines stylish furnishings, funky art, and plants to create a chic interior. The sleek kitchen is equipped with the appliances you need to dish up hearty breakfasts before busy days out and about – although, you won’t even have to leave your building for a fun-filled day. The building has a resort-style swimming pool, fitness studio, yoga room and cool chill-out area with a fire pit – ideal for sundowner drinks. 

Bobcat

Hot Tub

Part of Sea Pines Plantation, where it all started for holiday rentals on beautiful Hilton Head Island, this fully renovated home is the perfect place to switch off and relax. Just a short walk from the beach, and with all the gated community's excellent amenities on hand, it's a peaceful and private getaway surrounded by pretty gardens and mature trees. Inside, think vaulted ceilings, wood floors and neutral tones, with a tasteful coastal theme throughout. The heart of the home is the huge, open plan kitchen, with its double-height ceiling, cosy seating area and dining table – all with excellent views of the garden thanks to the large windows and sliding doors. On cooler evenings, snuggle up around the fire in the cosy living room, and on warm summer days cook outside on the grill and laze the days away in your hot tub. Everything here is within easy reach, whether it's the miles of perfect beaches, the oceanfront dining or the nearby riding stables. It's just a six-minute drive (or a pleasant bike ride) to the shops and restaurants of Harbour Town and the path down to the beach leads directly from your garden.

Oyster & Pearl

If you’re looking for a pad that fits with your work-hard, play-hard lifestyle then you’ve come to the right place. This Charlotte apartment has all you’ll need for any length of stay – king-size bed, ultra-high-speed Wifi and dedicated workspace, shiny modern kitchen and laundry facilities – plus fab fitness perks, including the use of a gym, swimming pool, fitness studio and yoga room. In the FreeMoreWest development, the building is surrounded by food markets, bars and art galleries and is just ten minutes from downtown Charlotte, for the financial district and cultural destinations. 
 


Queen Of Diamonds

FreeMoreWest offers the very best of the Queen City. You’ll be in a laid-back neighbourhood with several parks, yet just a ten-minute drive away from the sights and sounds of Uptown Charlotte. Perfect for short or longer-term stays, this apartment is all about the amazing amenities. Start your day poolside with a coffee, and when you’re back from your adventures, head to the shared lounge to play some table football and make a few local friends. As the sun sets, sip a cocktail on the rooftop terrace, where there are also barbecues set up for sunny days. Chic furnishings, a sleek modern kitchen and lots of natural lights means you’ll always be comfortable here. 

Cool Kids, Queen City

Spend just a few minutes of lounging on the deck, looking out on the sprawling greens of the Fazio Golf Course, and you'll understand why this Hilton Head home is a must-visit. It's situated in the gated Palmetto Dunes, an oceanfront resort bursting with outdoor activities, including tennis, surf lessons and kayaking in the saltwater lagoon. For a more relaxed pace, there's fishing and three on-site golf courses to choose from. The beach is just a seven-minute stroll away — grab a towel, pack a picnic and spend the day with the sand between your toes. When you need a break from the sun, there's plenty of room inside to sprawl out. The large windows let in heaps of natural light and the vaulted ceilings create even more space. In the evenings, you can prepare your catch of the day in the open-plan kitchen and dine at the table in front of the double-sided fireplace. If you don't feel like cooking, drive for ten minutes to the beachside restaurants, bars, and grills in the resort, or head to nearby Shelter Cove Marina for even more choice.

Fairway Breeze

Stylish and practical, this two-bedroom apartment is the ideal base for exploring all of Charlotte's sights. You'll love relaxing each evening in the open-plan living space in front of the Smart TV and cooking up meals in the fully-equipped kitchen. Each bedroom has its own en-suite, and there's even a dedicated workspace just in case you need to catch up on work emails during your trip. The best thing about this apartment, though, has to be the shared facilities – take a dip in the pool, relax on the terrace, or get competitive in the games room. You're just a 20-minute bus ride from the historic centre of Charlotte, and we would recommend visiting Mint Museum Uptown and Levine Museum of the New South for a dose of culture and history. Elsewhere, Charlotte is known for its sports events – catch a Hornets NBA game at the Spectrum Center or soak up the high-octane atmosphere of NASCAR at the Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Rebel Spirit

Foosball / Table Football

Buzzer / Wireless Intercom

Just short walk away from the beach on Hilton Head Island, this villa is offers true coastal chic. Part of a community development, the home has access to basketball and tennis courts, but there are plenty of tournaments to be had in the house too, with a foosball table and swimming pool. The designated cook can whip up their meals of choice on the outdoor grill, with plenty of seating for most of the house on the patio, while upstairs you'll find a medium sized kitchen for light meals. For peace and quiet, there are several balconies for reading and the bedrooms are fitted with vintage style furnishings and four-poster beds, perfect for hiding away from the world. When you do feel like exploring, the area is rich in activities, with water-sports, walking trails, and cycle routes all easy to access from home.

Double Trouble

You’ll breathe a sigh of contentment the minute you step through the door of this dreamy beachfront apartment. Beautifully finished in natural sand and earth tones, this home feels like a continuation of the rolling dunes just beyond the balcony. Your eye will immediately be drawn in that direction too, with French doors framing a postcard-perfect view of swaying palms and sparkling ocean. Step through onto your private terrace to feel the gentle sea breeze. The building offers several shared spaces: immaculate tropical gardens surround a large outdoor pool circled with sun loungers and tall palms. There’s a communal barbecue area where you can have a cook-up and socialise with your neighbours. The fine white sandy beach and the shimmer of the ocean call to you from just beyond the pool.

Sands & Shimmer

Games Room

Heated Pool

Private Pool

A sweet summer’s day comes easy in this elegant, Georgian-style home. After a rejuvenating sleep in one of the lavish bedrooms, all you’ll want is to get out into the sun. We know that some people prefer sandy beaches while others like swimming pools, and we love that this home has both – a private, glassy pool out back and the beach just a stone’s throw away. The home also has an entertainment room and well-equipped bar to ensure that everyone gets their share of fun. Though with a golf course nearby and rest of the island playground, perhaps we didn’t even need to worry about that.

Singing Sweet Carolina

Amid sandy strands and a network of lagoons, this villa is in one of the most picturesque areas of South Carolina. In just ten minutes, you can move from the water basin's grassy banks to the ocean through the scenic woodland between the two. But really, you never need to leave the house, with its stunning private pool, an array of balconies and verandas and a basketball court cushioned between the trees. Huddle around the fire pit on winter evenings or cook up a BBQ on the grill by the pool in summer. Inside, the bedrooms have large beds and deluxe furnishings, while the sunken living room makes for a great space to relax in front of the TV. Rent kayaks and paddle boards by the dock of the lagoon and catch an unforgettable sunset from the water.

Smoke on the Water

There’s a real sense of calm about this newly remodelled beach house. Whether it’s the neutral shades, or the copious amounts of natural light, you’ll find any tension melting away the minute you step through the door.  Located in the sought-after Lawton Woods area of Sea Pines, it’s just a short walk or bike ride from Hilton Head’s glorious beaches. Spend your days soaking up that South Carolina sunshine on the sands, lunching at the oceanfront beach clubs, or exploring Harbour Town’s boutiques, craft shops and chilled out cafes. Back at your tranquil retreat, de-sand the kids, before firing up the grill, ready for an al fresco supper of local seafood. There's plenty of space to stretch out in the living room after dark – watch a movie or simply enjoy chatting over a glass of wine. 

Oystercatcher

Days take on a slower pace on Hilton Head Island and this villa-style home is perfect for unwinding. A beachy vibe runs throughout, with wooden floorboards that can easily be swept after sandy feet run across them, and slanted, high ceilings to provide a cool relief from the outdoor heat. Keep an eye on the whole family in the open living, kitchen and dining room, as they play card games in the alcove or enjoy movie nights piled on the sofas. The home is on the edge of a golf course and you can watch the action from the front deck, complete with a barbecue for rustling up some grilled delights if you get hungry. For peace and quiet, the upstairs master bedroom has a private balcony, perfect for curling up with a book. Part of a complex, the home has access to a shared pool and tennis courts, while it's only a short drive to Harbour Town and the beach.

Summer Heat

Ping Pong Table

We’ve got to hand it to this gorgeous home — or should we say mansion — on Hilton Head Island. As far as luxurious hideaways go, this one exudes class. Surrounded by lush tropical gardens and within a two-minute walk of the beach, there is something deliciously magical about this place. We fell in love with the secluded palm-fringed swimming pools (one for the adults and one for the children). In fact, the leafy garden is something of a centrepiece, with balconies, terraces, and charming arched loggias all cleverly arranged to give maximum views over this delightful outside space. Find a peaceful corner to read a book, sip a cool drink before dinner or tuck into a family feast beneath the stars. And who could fail to be charmed by the sweet little path, twisting through the trees to the sand dunes and beach beyond? Sweep up the grand steps from the pool area and the treats continue inside, with a lofty entrance hall and impressive open concept living space — perfect for gathering the whole family together. A second living area upstairs gives plenty of room for large groups and families travelling together. There are big bedrooms galore (think four-poster beds and balcony views), palatial bathrooms and bunk beds for the kids. And because it’s all part of an exclusive, larger resort, there’s a wealth of facilities and amenities to enjoy should you wish to, including three golf courses, a tennis centre, restaurants, shopping and harbourside entertainment. 


Among The Dunes

This beautiful home has a prime location overlooking the Palmetto Dunes lagoon. Just ten minutes’ walk from Hilton Head’s dazzling sands, it’s an ideal base for a beach holiday. There’s something very classic about the interior, with muted neutrals, layered lighting and high-quality furnishings. The lofty panelled ceilings in the lounge and the Roman-style columns in the entrance hall give an added sense of grandeur to the living space.  Large windows overlook the lagoon and the private pool, where we imagine you’ll spend most of your time. Holidays here are all about enjoying the perks of the Palmetto Dunes community, with three world-class golf courses, a tennis centre, restaurants, shops and free use of the Dunes Buggy. Outdoorsy types will love the forty kilometres of paved bike paths and the Atlantic surf. After a long day of sun, sea and fun, we can see you sipping a Long Island iced tea on one of the deck chairs that have been thoughtfully set up by the lagoon, before enjoying a balmy evening dining on the terrace. Perfection.

White Ibis

This bright FreeMoreWest apartment is ideally located to explore the Queen City. You’ll be a short stroll away from neighbourhood parks, bars and restaurants, as well as just a ten-minute drive from everything Uptown Charlotte has to offer. Start your day with some laps of the pool, before a day of exploring. In the afternoon, head to the shared lounge and break the ice with residents over a game of pool or table football. This home has everything you need for either a short or long-term stay, including comfortable furnishings, a fully-equipped kitchen, and a stylish breakfast bar where your sous chefs can hang out. Elsewhere, there's a barbecue area to make the most of warm evenings, as well as a business lounge and gym and yoga room so you can keep on top of your work and fitness schedules.

Queen City Cats

This apartment has all you could need for any length of stay in this exciting city – whether you're here for business or leisure. With two bedrooms, opening this up as an option for a family break, you'll have use of the building's gym, swimming pool, lounge with games tables and a dog park if you're bringing the pooch. Inside, it's comfortable and practical, with stylish furnishings and an open layout living space. In the FreeMoreWest development, the building is surrounded by food markets, bars and art galleries and is just ten minutes from downtown Charlotte, for attractions including the Discovery Place Kids and ImaginOn story centre. There’s also the NASCAR museum for burgeoning petrol heads. 

Charlottean

Parking On Premises

Space, warmth and greenery all contribute to the laid-back luxury feel of this modern home. Behind trendy, pale-grey wooden cladding, find an airy open-plan living area, brightly lit by tall windows. It flows on with a kitchen of granite counters, opulent sofas, and a table tennis room with views of the island's famous Greenwood Forest trees. Fall into a relaxed mood, lulled by the gentle maritime blues and calming creams of the décor, among fresh, organic surroundings. Step out to a refreshing pool and sun deck, and of course, alfresco dining next to the gas barbecue comes as standard. Just like this house, the natural world is a huge part of the local area's charm. This whole barrier island is eco-friendly and has a myriad of beaches. The house is in a quiet resort preserve with a protected wildlife forest between it and the mainland. With this location, you’ll feel agreeably separate from big city life. But at just twenty kilometres from crossing state lines into Savannah, Georgia, you can discover boldly flavoured seafood, antebellum architecture, and quirky shops – although it’s unlikely you’ll want to stray so far from your sanctuary.

Woodpecker's Island

Southern family living meets beach charm at this home on Hilton Head Island. The wraparound porch, pool and ping-pong table make it the perfect place to while away long afternoons in the sun. When you're ready to get out and about, you won't have to go far to get to world-renowned beaches and golf courses. Coligny Plaza – one of the livelier areas of the island – is also nearby, so there are several restaurant to try out. But we wouldn’t blame you for just having an ice cream before heading home to fire up the grill as the sun goes down over. There’s nothing quite like a cookout to end the day.

Leafy & Peach

Time to polish off the ring and get down on one knee because this home has us head over heels. Only two hundred metres from the beach, this Hilton Head Island villa is a luxurious, private hideaway made for lazy summer days. Mornings start in the bedrooms, where floor to ceiling windows bring in lots of light, before toddling into the open-plan kitchen. There's a breakfast bar for quick eats, but we prefer big get-togethers on the dining table or on the patio outside. Days can be spent lounging by the curved swimming pool, where you can take a dip to cool off before padding back inside for a drink. When things get too warm, there are several hang-out spaces, including a bright and breezy lounge, thanks to its double height windows, and a reading nook with views over the pool. Should you want to explore further afield, it's a short drive or cycle to Harbour Town with its seafood restaurants, boutiques and bustling marina. 

Glory Days

Surrounded by lagoons on all sides, this low-country home is tucked into the flora and fauna of Hilton Head Island. The gracious nature of the home makes it ideal for both a short summer weekend and long stay alike. Wander through the elegant courtyard and find yourself at ease upon entering the living room reminiscent of a scene from Town and Country magazine. Wicker chairs and colourfully upholstered furniture are dotted throughout. Outside, spend hours in the pool before heading out for the day’s adventure. Sea Pines Resort has an outdoor activity or amenity for everyone, from walking and horse-riding trails to five miles of pristine beaches and famed golf courses. At the day’s end back on the patio, turn on the Sonos speaker, kick back in an Adirondack chair, and toss some patties on the BBQ.

Wicker

In between Harbour Town and South Beach on Hilton Head Island, this home epitomises holiday living with beach vibes abound thanks to the spot's whiteboard walls and maritime-themed furnishings. We particularly love the generous amount of social space; there's a double-volume living room and myriad of areas for guests to gather. Dinner can be eaten inside or out – on the large dining table underneath an artisanal light fitting or seated at the casual deck furniture across the patio. The kidney-shaped pool in the back garden is ready for cooling off from the heat – your hosts have even left you some colourful floats for guests both young and old – we're not ones to judge. 

Salty Breeze

Whether you're here on business or pleasure, this comfortable apartment offers the best of both worlds. You’ll be in the laidback neighbourhood of FreeMoreWest surrounded by greenery, yet just a ten-minute drive from exciting Uptown Charlotte. Making ingenious use of space, this home is ready for action, with a desk in the bedroom and ultra high-speed Wifi. We love the chic interior – including a breakfast bar and curated plants – but this place is really all about the amenities. Perfect for long-term stays, you’ll have a shared outdoor pool to swim in, a hi-tech gym to keep you fit and a communal lounge with table tennis and air hockey tables.
