Rhett House Inn

I absolutely love this place!!! The history, the decor, everything! I stayed in room 14 which is in the cottage house. I had a nice cozy gas fireplace and spa bathroom. The bed was so comfy with lots of pillows! The Inn was beautifully decorated for Christmas. I enjoyed evening tea, cheese and desserts. The inn is only a 5 minute walk to downtown Beaufort. The breakfast was a delight! Unlike most B&B’s tiu got to order off a menu. The blueberry pancakes were devine! Thanks for an amazing stay and i cant wait to return!

The building is circa 1820 and is showing its age. Rooms are fatigued but we had a pleasant stay. If you are looking for an authentic stay in an antebellum inn this is one to consider. They put cheese, crackers, and other tasty meats, olives, etc. each evening. That treat ids followed by delectable desserts around 7:00 PM. They have wonderful breakfasts! Free and cooked to order. We found the tailored to the guest breakfast, evening snacks and desserts to more than make up for the room. While we were there they had an exterior renovation underway.

We stepped into heaven on Earth. Our room, in the “Cottage” was decorated in gorgeous blues and white, with fine antique furnishings. In the bathroom was a huge whirlpool bath. The coffee station was loaded with a variety of of Kcups, and bottled water to make the coffee.||We enjoyed homemade (semi homemade) desserts, and were sorry we missed afternoon cookie and wine and cheese times. Breakfast, which was solid, is included in the room fee.|The library is gorgeous, and the staff are quite friendly. |We got a fabulous deal - about $167 - because it was low season and there is construction outside the main house. ||I cannot wait to return.

My husband and I stayed at the Rhett House in on Friday, January 9th. This was our 3rd visit to The Rhett House and were excited for another visit to Beaufort. We booked Room 9 in the main house. When we arrived we were told we were in the cottages Room 18. We mentioned at the front desk that we thought we were in the main building the person said, "No you're in the cottages". After we dropped of our bags, my husband double checked our reservation and sure enough our confirmation was for the main building Room 9. We went back to the front desk to inquire what happened and we were told that Room 9 wasn't available due to construction. When we asked why we weren't notified, we were told we had to contact the manager to discuss anything. We were also told she was very busy & hard to get a hold of. I sent an email to the manager that night to let her know about our disappointment. We got a response back saying due to safety reasons we were moved (fair enough) and she pointed out in the fine print of our reservation that the hotel doesn't guarantee a specific room (even though they let you choose one). My issue is not that they had to move us, it's the complete lack of acknowledgement of the staff that we were moved. No compensation was offered or even a friendly gesture. It could have been a glass or wine, chocolates in the room, or an offer of a home baked dessert. Instead it was up to us prove that something had changed. It really didn't sit well. Kind of ruined our whole evening. Actually it caused us to look around and notice other issues that showed a lack of detail... creaky bed, chipped soap dishes and peeling laminate on the bathroom cabinets. I'll add that breakfast was a highlight. Nice staff and very good food. We won't be returning to The Rhett House Inn.

We always stay at inns when we travel, preferring personalized service and local flavor. We were not disappointed with The Rhett House. Our room was in the cottage across the street. It was cozy and comfortable, had a fridge (important!) and lovely little electric fireplace. They have a nice selection for breakfast, served at individual tables (our preference). The nightly happy hour and dessert offering was just icing on the cake. Within walking distance of the downtown area and waterfront. Definitely go for some good southern hospitality and charm.

My wife and I prefer Bed & Breakfast Inns and have enjoyed many of them over the years. I do all of the upfront research and selection and thought I made a good choice in the Rhett Inn. It was a disappointment. We stayed three nights over New Year's during a cold snap, and suffered for it. After checking in, we entered our room (at the cottages) and found the inside temperature was 62 degrees, with no instructions provided on how to operate the thermostat. I fiddled with it, thought the heat was on, and we left to visit our friends for dinner. Upon our return, it was still cold, about 63 in the room and dropping to 35 outside. The management had left for the day, so we again tried to adjust the temperature, but nothing worked. We were cold all night and complained the next day. The staff were working on the system in the morning as we left to see our friends, and later we found a space heater in our room, the central system turned off, and no explanation. The central system never worked adequately. Overall, the Inn was undergoing substantial renovation, which made getting to breakfast in the main house a chore. Breakfast itself was better than a chain hotel, but far below what we normally expect in a boutique Inn. While one expects compromises in a historic structure, the Inn needs work, with grimy windows, paint peeling in places, and suffers from expansion and reductions in quality of service and facilities. Staff was friendly, except the management failed to offer a discount when I complained about the heat. We wont be returning.

We stayed Nov 20th. |Great experience. Stayed in room 10.|The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Hats off to housekeeping.|Chef Beverly is the bomb. Best French toast I ever had.|Staff was super friendly and full of information.|We will definitely return.

What a wonderful Inn!! We stayed in room 19 and were surprised with staying in the house behind the house and all the room we had!!! Two rooms to share a house with a living room, full kitchen and lovely screened in porch!! And the price was excellent!!! Location wonderful as it was easy to walk places but the gem was the staff!!! Beverly, Tyler, Mark, Janet, Laurie and Adrian were so pleasant and helpful! I’m sure I left some names off like the ladies at the front desk and I apologize for not getting your names but truly everyone was so accommodating and pleasant!! It was awesome meeting the owners and being invited to the book talk. I will most definitely stay here again next year!!! Only negative I have is when it rained and the rain hit the AC. That was very noisy at night but hopefully when they renovate they can address that issue. Y’all were wonderful and helped make our weekend one to remember!

Atmosphere: Quaint antebellum home. Location: Excellent location in downtown Beaufort, near the waterfront and the main shops on Bay St. Walking distance to shopping and eating. Service: Good. Helpful front of house personnel, friendly servers and kitchen staff. Food: Breakfast is delicious. You can order whatever you want from the menu, and order more than one item. There are cheese and crackers in the evening. Accommodations: We stayed in King Room 11 in the separate house across the street from the main building. The room is spacious and tastefully decorated. The wood shutters were dusty with a visible layer of dust on the window facing side (not the room facing side). In this room you can hear foot steps above and the voices of the people in the room above. The bed is comfortable, the AC and fan are great. The bathroom has a jacuzzi tub and is outdated (looks as if it hails from 1995) and in need of some repair but is functional. Would be nice if they added at least a handheld bidet feature as an option to bathrooms. There is advertisement of having an EV charger as an amenity at this hotel. During our stay, the Tesla destination charger was broken but the alternate J1772 level two charger was semi-operational. I could plug in but charging would stop/restart sporadically. Recommendation: Enjoyed our stay. "It's a yes from me, dog"

Classic southern elegance. Shannon who checked us in- friendly, welcoming and informative. Very clean

We had a nice stay here over MLK weekend. Food was wonderful, staff were very friendly, and we enjoyed the little treats the inn had each day. We loved riding the bikes around Beaufort. The thing that made it lose a star was that the fireplace didn't work in our room, the bed squeaked, and one night when we tried to use the jacuzzi tub there was no hot water! So be aware of that when you use the water that the hot water may run out. We would still recommend this place and did enjoy our stay. We stayed in carriage room 17.

Disappointing. Avoid room 8, in bad condition. Needs to be renovated. Musty and damp, paint peeling, spider in my bed. No smart TV, had to run to Staples for a Roku. No mini-bar as advertised. Breakfast was very good but don't sit next to the wall unless you see the window sills and shutters have been cleaned. Worst part was "luxury linens" and this was our washcloth...

We were only in Beaufort one night, so we only had one night at The Rhett House but we were absolutely obsessed with everything about our stay there and the sweet town of Beaufort! From the second we met the kind staff we felt so welcomed. They were so helpful in giving us all kinds of recommendations for our day and night there and went above and beyond when making sure we had enough robes and towels for three girls staying in a room together. From cookies and tea when we arrived, to our complimentary breakfast before we checked out, everything was absolutely amazing!! All three of us have raved about it all day. The staff's kindness seriously created the sweetest stay for us and we are so grateful!!! We will be returning to the Rhett House if we are ever lucky enough to come back to Beaufort!!

This is a beautiful place to stay. We had a wonderful time and the staff was very friendly and caring.

Absolutely love this place!!! The breakfast made by award winner chef Beverly is fabulous. The staff is over the top nice always looking to help you. So much rich history in this B&B. They supply bicycles to ride around looking at the beautiful town and water. If this is your first time take the horse history carriage ride.

Although a very quaint southern bed & breakfast in a historic setting-- it was the most uncomfortable and unhealthy room experience we have ever encountered. -1.. extremely musty and damp to the point of sheets, clothing, body feeling continually "wet". Yes, it's been humid, but, they have damp rid bags that needed emptied and the AC only blows continually in fan mode... anyone would find this atmosphere uncomfortable and a health risk... we live in SC and this is not acceptable. 2.. the refrigerator didn't close due to huge ice build up and we had to chisel that down to get it to function. -3.. hornet nest on porch outside of our door was brought to their attention and needed taken care of -4.. porch furniture was filthy and we had to wipe it down before being able to enjoy sitting there. -4.. little maintenance jobs and details in room have been neglected and unsightly.. the return air vents in ceiling are filthy, bathroom toilet connections rusted and falling apart. -5.. booked thru Expedia and warned we shoujd not be billed additional.... they put a sticky note on our door requesting additional $29 for fees and would not give us a print out receipt -6.. it was nice walking distance to town and the bed was comfortable except for being very damp

We only can give it 3 stars but I still recommend a stay (for one night). It is only 3 stars because of the value in comparison to the costs. The positives: most of the staff were friendly, the breakfast was delicious (although a fruit option is needed), the beds are comfortable, it is walking distance to restaurants, shops and waterfront. The negatives: the evening appetizers and deserts were disappointing. We saw several posts from the inn with signature cocktails but none were severed the four days we were there (we were only offered wine one of the days). Coffee is not ready until 7:30 and sometimes it isn't ready until 8:00. The inn is beautiful but like all historic inns it needs constant upkeep. We enjoyed room 7 but be advised all the rooms require many stairs. Some of the stairs are uneven and would be very difficult for anyone with any mobility issues

Cannot say enough wonderful things about this special place! The house is stunning, centrally located, and just unbelievably special. The staff are phenomenal, truly kind people who go out of their way to help others. And thank goodness they have a Tesla charger, it's the only one around for miles!!! If you are a Tesla owner, you absolutely MUST stay here!

Had a wonderful stay. The staff is fantastic. The room was very clean. Can't wait to go back. Breakfast was awesome. Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. The homemade biscuits were so fun. Get breakfast a little early so you can get a seat out on the porch. Thanks again to all the wonderful staff. They definitely treat you like your family.

Beautiful historic hotel, comfortable bed! pillows not as much I am sure they would have gotten us new ones we just never asked. . Lovely people who work there delightful and quiet, gardens, home baked goods, crackers at 5 a easy walk to lots of restaurants in the carriage horses go by. Enjoyed our stay, and would definitely go back.

Beautiful place, walking distance to the waterfront and downtown, and the pies and cakes at dessert hour were outstanding. Borrow a bike and to ride a trail or be the first to snag the free beach pass to Hunting Islands. Chatting with John, owner and host, I learned, among other things, who were some of the favorite famous guests who stayed there and local celebrities who came by for drinks. He also shared what it's like running an historic inn in the age of Yelp reviews. His answer, like the inn, was full of grace.

I totally enjoyed every moment of my stay at The Rhett House Inn. They have a great little cheese and hummus spread each night, an honor system bar and a great to order breakfast from 8:00 to 10:00am each morning which is included with your room. I stayed in the Barbra Streisand room which was just fabulous. My bed was so so so comfortable, I never wanted to get out of bed! The Inn also has these big beautiful balconies with tables and hammocks. This is just such a nice relaxing place to lay your head in style for a few days.

I enjoyed our stay. The room was great, king bed and huge bath tub with plenty of hot water. The breakfast is excellent. In the evening they had a happy hour followed by deserts. Easy walk to downtown Beaufort.

Wonderful place to stay. Staff is extremely friendly and the rooms are beautiful. The desserts by Mimi are out of this world!!! Will definitely recommend this inn to anyone coming this way.

I expected much more than we got for the cost The Good: beautiful house with lovely porches Nice staff. Beach pass with access to towels and beach chairs. Great area with restaurants and things to do that you can walk to. Bad or could have been better Main things in room was clean but upon closer inspection there were cobwebs in the lights and floor were dusty. Jets in the tub do not work and was told upon arrival to not turn them on. Breakfast was just ok tasting and the more you order the less the give you example we ordered bacon and country ham only received 1 small pc of each. Instead of 2 each which would be a normal order amount. Cheese tray they put out at 5:00 they just leave out in the open no fly cover or way to keep the food cool. When we got there there was gnats on the food and cheese wasn't cold. 7:00 Desserts were ok but were definitely not homemade as advertised and also just left out on the counter for 2 hours not covered or cooled. The best part was the outdoor porches to relax on. I would not stay here again. What you get was not worth the price you pay.

We were very underwhelmed by the Rhett House Inn. We stayed two nights and wished we had checked out after our first one, but because we like to give everything another chance, we decided to try a different room on our second night. That was our mistake. Positive: Friendly staff Good walkability to the downtown and restaurants Upper level front porch was nice That's it! Negative: We stayed in the Inn and moved to the cottage - both rooms while on the surface looked clean were not. The air vents in the Inn room were caked with dust and you could visibly see the the layer of dust on the outside of the vents. We both had major headaches that never truly cleared until we were out walking. Breakfast was ok. You basically pick what you'd like off a list and it is made for you. It is included with the price, but then when you get the bill you will notice a service charge of $69.60 and since there were no other services given breakfast probably is not truly included in the price. Furniture and rugs are stained and the building itself just looks in disrepair. Overall, our stay was a bust. We should've left after our first night. When we moved our room, while people were nice, they didn't really show any true concern about it, they just assigned us another room. We understand that it's been family run for over 30 plus years, but perhaps the time has come to close down for a bit and do a deep clean and some repairs/renovations and up their amenities to justify their pricing.

We were very disappointed with this famous hotel in Beaufort, SC. Is not the first time we stay there. They don't have the same service as before, supposedly due to COVID19, no cookies or coffee in the afternoon, no hot breakfast etc etc. I think at least the less they should do is is put some kind of cool snacks in the room to greet the guests. Overall that was it for me, very disappointed.

What a BEAUTIFUL property! The staff was friendly and welcoming, the onsite chef, Beverly, was incredible! Everything she made was soooooo tasty and her grits are amazing! Our room was located on the porch just around the corner from the main door to the house and was super clean and bottles of water were waiting for us. In the main house, coffee and tea were offered all day, as well as cookies, with cheese & crackers offered later in the afternoon and homemade desserts early evening. Though they only offered breakfast, it was well worth staying for that, then heading out to explore the town which was a 4 minute walk away. There is a Museum just down the street, as well as churches and is situated in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. We will definitely be back for another stay!

I've given this place five stars in the past, but only the chef, waiters and one staff person observed safety precautions by wearing masks. I don't get it! Aldo we were looking forward to Chef Beverly's cakes, but we got local pied that were good but not outstanding. Room number7 has great access to the garden.

We stayed at the Rhett House Inn on Wednesday, July 15, 2020. Upon check in we were told that the receptionist would leave at 7:00 PM and someone would be back by 7:00 AM. We were given a key to let ourselves in and out of the building. Our toilet seat was broken, and we were unable to turn the water off in our bath, so it ran all night. There was no one there to report it to. We went down at 7:30 AM hoping to find a cup of coffee. No one was there except another guest looking for coffee. No one was present until about 8:00AM when a lady starting cooking breakfast. About 9:25 AM someone appeared at the reception desk. We understand that due to Covid not all of the lovely amenities that the Rhett House is known for were in place, but this visit fell far short of their norm. We will not be returning.

For $370 a night, we did not expect the below list of items to occur & better yet, for the Manager to fail to respond 10 days & counting after the complaint: -Dirty pillowcase upon arrival (which the lady did come & change after I called) -Cobwebs all over the lights in the bathroom -Shower leaks onto the floor through the right side -Holes in the comforter on the bed -Air conditioning only got down to 76 degrees our entire stay (we were told it was due to the location of the room & that it couldn't be fixed) -Bed literally squeaked every time you moved an inch -When I asked for the beach chairs to use for the day, I was told they were really old and not in good shape, and that we wouldn't want them Do not stay here if you want luxury service & accomodations, which is what you should get for the price.

Love our weekend getaway!! The Rhett house was absolutely wonderful. The staff was friendly and helpful. Our accommodations was comfortable and cozy. Breakfast was a great way to get your day started. Blueberry pancakes, French toast and country ham. Yumm! After a day on the water. We were back for wine and cheese. Did I tell you, late night dessert was homemade pecan pie. Rhett house, thank you for everything. We'll be back!

We stayed at the beautiful Craven House across the street, but dined each morning with Miss Beverly at The Rhett House. Named for the prominent Beaufort family, Rhett House is famous for their fabulous breakfasts. Management will try to squeeze in non guests of the Inn with 24 hours advanced notice. Dining is on the second floor veranda and parlor. A printed menu lists choices. This 9th generation Georgia girl was wowed every morning. The grits are spot on. Bacon crispy delicious. And the french toast? Miss Beverly has the Gift. The lovely servers are personable and know their stuff. Very gracious. Absolutely delightful way to start the day!

The cheese board is basic, the evening desserts ran out & the next night when they had dessert it seemed to be from the grocery store and basic the next morning the breakfast was VERY basic and the waiter shared that the biscuits came in frozen... they didn't have any milk for the coffee (never ready at 7:30 the published time). It would go a long way if they tried to garnish or just add fruit or herbs to the food offerings. Meanwhile the bedroom was very nice- but small, the male cleaning person we saw was very nice, we did wonder if we had somehow insulted the front end staff since they were curt and I thought dismissive of guest - the breakfast server is clearly understaffed at 8am when they open and guest came in. After waiting for 15 minutes in the dining room without even a water being offered- we left without breakfast (B&B?)...and went to Starbucks- this coffee shop had milk for the coffee too! I was just surprised by Frozen biscuits, and that so many items on the menu that they could not offer due to no milk. We never saw the homemade cookies (nor frozen) talked about on the website and only saw iced tea out once.

We stayed at the Rhett House Inn and were very disappointed. Room #4 was recommended. With the window mounted AC running full blast, the room never cooled below 74-75 degrees. As for your "Breakfast" experience expected in a "Bed & Breakfast", it was limited, weak, not good. Blame it on COVID if you like however the cooking staff acted as if they were disgusted to be there. Not very friendly or warm at all! Our stay seemed like a serious inconvenience to them. The staff at the front desk were friendly and helpful. It was nice having the opportunity to be out of town however we would definitely choose another place had we known we were really not welcomed by the kitchen.....where we had to pick up our takeout. Will not go back unless serious reassurances a change has been made

We originally booked our stay at the beginning of June. I had checked the website to make sure of any COVID restrictions. We just stayed there in July, and were very disappointed to find that they had updated policy to remove all amenities.The only thing we got for breakfast was a breakfast sandwich to go or eggs and bacon on a plate. That is ridiculous considering we paid $476 for two nights. I understand guidelines, but there were other ways to provide safety and allow a hospitable experience. You could serve individual cookies in paper bags or do personalized goodie bags. The lack of any alternative seems to me lazy and using the excuse of Coronavirus. On top of that, we received poor service from the entire staff. We were made to feel like we were inconveniencing the staff. Especially the kitchen crew. As a South Carolina native that has stayed at numerous b&bs, it is terrible. After so many recommendations on this place, we will never be back. You guys still are getting paid for half the experience received.

"AWESOME place to stay in a quaint historic town" 5 of 5 starsReviewed October 2, 2013 on TripAdvisor We know Beaufort... we know Beaufort very well, so we are not the typical incidental tourist. However, this is the first stay at the Rhett House. We spied it many times, but took the dive and now wondered why we waited so long. We normally stay at a chain hotel just adjacent as it was priced well for us, all the time wondering how things would be at the grand ol' B&B just behind. Well Anya and Josh were wonderful hosts... I was in town for business and will continue to use the Inn as their corporate rates are very competitive. It happened to be my 7th wedding anniversary weekend, and my wife decided to surprise me by driving down to stay the evening. The staff was most accommodating in allowing me to have a 7:15AM breakfast (45-minutes prior to when it was normally offered) so I could get in a hearty breakfast before work. The ladies in the kitchen were super nice in providing a great start to my day. Josh was the evening host and the late afternoon appetizers and wine were a nice touch. We even went on a 40-minute bike ride around town (on the complementary cruisers the inn has for guests). This is 5-STAR treatment. Room was #7 a popular double queen w/ private entrance to the garden and fountain in the back of the Inn. We will be back!!!! [on our 2nd stay for two nites Joyce and David took good care of us and Beverly the cook and server came in again extra early to serve us a early breakfast] SaleebScore: Service 9.5/10, Comfort: 9/10, Breakfast 8/10 Overall: 9/10 a grand experience and this IS the BEST B&B we have stay in in Beaufort... Room Tip: Have the innkeepers help you with a map to local restaurants. Don't forget about the complement...

Sis and I stayed at this quaint and comfy inn during our first visit to Beaufort. We were attending a Marine Corp graduation on Parris Island and opted to stay at the Rhett House after reading several great reviews on Tripadvisor and Yelp. We were beyond pleased with our decision. Room #2 was small but cozy. Our bed was comfy and although the semi-private balcony went unused, it was quite inviting. Breakfast was awesome! At home, I never wake up early enough for breakfast but during this trip, I made it a point to wake up in time to enjoy each morning's tasty offerings. And they were tasty... The staff is fantastic! The morning of the graduation, the kitchen staff arrived early, just to get breakfast ready for us since we had to leave before the usual dining hours. The manager also gave us dining and shopping suggestions that were only a few blocks away from our locale. And let me tell ya, the variety of eats in Beaufort will satisfy even the most discerning palate. So, lets add it all up: Centrally located+friendly/efficient staff+attentive and knowledgable management+tasty breakfast/evening desserts+comfy room= 5 stars and a return trip this December! You do the math!

My husband I I basically swore off B & B's in general because of some bad experiences but there was nothing to fear here. We like our privacy so having a separate entrance to our room in the carriage house that was just a 1/2 block away from the inn was ideal. It was also nice to have our own porch where we could watch the spanish moss on the live oaks sway with the breeze. It was a peaceful street though on occasion you could hear the church bells ring (Love that) and hear the clippity clop of the horse drawn carriages. I liked the sound, but always feel bad for these animals. I would prefer to hear them galloping in an open field. Right across the narrow street, there was a large, beautiful cemetery and church. The hourly bells tolled from here. We strolled the grounds the next morning and we were glad we did. It was so peaceful, beautiful and it was interesting to read about the historical figures who were laid to rest there. The room was spacious and the four poster bed enormous. You almost needed a step stool to climb on it, but it was charming and it fit the style of the decor for the room. A gas fireplace was a nice touch making it feel warm and cozy on a chilly night. The bathroom was well sized and had a shower and separate tub. Now remember, these are historic properties which is part of the experience. You won't find state of the art double rain shower stalls or other trendy modern conveniences. The food and service here were definitely Southern style: proper, but friendly, gracious and helpful. For breakfast, there were always several choices i.e. eggs, french toast, pancakes, with the usual add ons like grits, biscuits, country ham, sausage, etc. etc. I went with the scrambled eggs with chives and cheese and decided to construct my own breakfast sandwich. The eggs, ham and biscuit made a tasty bite, and the grits were spot on. As others mentioned the self serve desserts in the evening were quite incredible, not just from the variety but also the quality of the goodies. Made with Southern love, that was evident. The stay here made our Beaufort and low country experience complete. We will be back.

What a lovely gem here in beautiful Beaufort! We came to celebrate our anniversary & fell in love with this charming Inn. The service was excellent, food was delicious and our room was amazing. The grounds are gorgeous, wish we could have stayed longer. This is one of our favorite getaways...and definitely plan to return to the Rhett House Inn.

Simply put, the best Bed and Breakfast I've ever stayed at. Every (and I do mean EVERY) detail of your stay is taken care of. The room was spacious, charming, and featured a jacuzzi tub AND a 30-foot PRIVATE porch running the length of the room. The room was bright and airy when the blinds were open, and cool and private when they were closed. The staff takes care of every detail. The included breakfast each morning is comfort food at its best, and the amenities they offer (bikes, beach chairs and towels, etc) make this place truly feel like you are staying with a friend. The rates are a bit pricy, but well worth it. There are snacks, drinks, and desserts offered in the living room or kitchen of the inn virtually non-stop until 9 PM each day. The waitstaff is friendly, and the place is as charming and beautiful as any home you will see in the south.

A Southern slice of heaven. We will be back! Relaxing & Stylish comfort. Nice beds & A/C works great. Chef Beverly makes yummy breakfast that you can enjoy as horse carriage tours clomp by

I stayed here this past weekend for the long Labor Day weekend, and it was delightful! The Rhett House Inn is a perfect place to read the paper, stay fed, work a crossword puzzle, sip on sweet tea vodka (really), and generally do nothing. From the included Southern Breakfast each morning, to lemonade and tea all afternoon, to the desserts each evening (ah, the heavenly walnut pie), my experience here made me want to pack up shop and move back to the South. The huge wrap-around veranda is quintessential southern coastal town, and the free bikes provided by the inn are the perfect way to roam lazily through the quiet streets. I don't remember the last time I felt like a kid in summertime; it was the perfect ending to summer. The beach is a relatively short and picture-perfect drive away, replete with grassy sea marshes, tethered shrimp boats, and soaring birds. I loved this place, and I can't wait to go back.

I have to give the Rhett House 5 stars as the accommodations and service do not get any better than here. The staff is welcoming and helpful. We were greeted with a glass of champagne as well as a tour of the common areas and a thorough explanation of how things work in the house (i.e.. the honor bar, open kitchen, etc.) The food that is included is extraordinary. It was lovely to have breakfast on the veranda in the morning. Our room (#2) was beautifully renovated and had such a comfortable bed. After we left, I discovered that I left behind my prescription glasses. When I called, the staff was gracious enough to mail them to me in Philadelphia. Again, we had a wonderful experience and I would absolutely recommend the inn to anyone going to Beaufort!

What an awesome place to stay! The amenities are very comfortable, and the staff is wonderfully accommodating. Food is great - breakfast each day has been excellent and the complimentary desserts in the kitchen each night have been great. (The pecan pie is the best I have had in a while.) The town has wonderful history, architecture, and a relaxed pace.

Loved! It was so nice to have the benefits of a B & B while still having privacy. We really felt like we had the cottage to ourselves. The staff was lovely. Dessert at nite amazing. Delicious breakfast

Excellent experience. Every staff member was extremely pleasant . Great breakfast. Because of the age of the building, the second floor had only one AC unit so you don't have individual temperature control in your room. Our room must have been 62 even though the hallway thermostat was set on 72. But the plush bedding kept that from being a big deal. Overall, very impressed.

I can't imagine a more relaxing few days than staying at the Rhett House. We loved sitting out on the veranda admiring the Spanish moss and the buggies driving by. The owner suggested we take a tour of the Gullah country. Somebody named "The Rev" came and picked us up and gave us a fascinating tour and offered wonderful insights into a people and culture we, being from the west coast, had never before heard of. Breakfast on the veranda . . . a leisurely stroll through town . . . life is good!

Our second stay at the Rhett House Inn. Just as good as the first time! Superlative service, just a comfortable relaxing feeling here. The only place to stay in Beaufort!!

Upon arrival we were put in what we thought looked like a lovely room. When we walked in the first thing we noticed is that the light was burnt out. Not a big deal. As we were settling in my husband opened the refrigerator and found left over pizza and other foods that were left from the previous people gross!! As I went to plug my I pad in to charge I looked down and the baseboards probably haven't been cleaned in years. Piled with dust as well as the glass shelves in the room. I ran a bath but the plug didn't fit the drain and all the water drained out. The milk in the refrigerator for coffee had expired in 2015, Really? There was also a bad smell in the room sometimes. The last game of the World Series was on and wouldn't you know it, our TV did not work. I understand old, and I understand charm which this place has but I don't understand dirt! We started to question whether our sheets were clean. Could not wait to leave!

we travel a lot along the east coast and stay in a lot of B & B and the Rhett House in Beaufort SC is one of the best. the rooms are beautifiul , the breakfast is fantastic, and the staff very friendly and helpful. their recommendations for lunch and dinner were spot on. this is a must stay if in the area

LOVED staying at Rhett House Inn! My husband and I usually prefer hotels to B&Bs, but not in this case. Shannon checked us in, and was extremely friendly and helpful. The inn itself is beautiful, inside and out! Our room was clean, pretty, nice and cool, and had free wi-fi. We were able to bring beach chairs/towels from RHI to Hunting Island Beach, which was super convenient. Pie set out each night...so good! Will definitely be back.

We stayed at the Rhett house for three nights in September/October 2011. Our room was located across the street from the main building and was rather charming, upstairs in the front which included a nice porch with furniture. We enjoyed the delicious breakfasts each morning and the front desk people were very nice and helpful. We were loaned bicycles one day to tour the area and we enjoyed the ride. A couple of downsides: I would think that the street the inn is located on (our building) would be quiet but every night there were people walking and talking, some screaming. (perhaps the sound carried and the windows may have been thin?). Also, the last night we were there, the nighttime weather changed and we were a bit cold, the heater didn't work and we did not see an extra blanket in the closet. The room could have been a bit cleaner, the rug in the bathroom was stained and some of the furniture was a bit dusty. On at least two mornings, dishes that were on our table for breakfast were not clean and had to go back. Other than those things, the location was perfect, walking distance to everything. We enjoyed our time in Beaufort!

Nicely done! The service was exceptional, rooms were historical but updated. They had fast internet. Great service and excellent food. Be sure to eat breakfast here and stop by at night for their home made pies. Felt so at home while there but also learned a lot as well. They are in a great location too. Anyone who goes to Beaufort should stay here.
