Our stay at Rhett House brought us back to a time of civility and graciousness. We felt appreciated and pampered. The Inn is well located for shopping and/or touring. It is also perfect if you just want to relax and enjoy the quiet. Our stay exceeded our expectations.

We stayed two nights at the Rhett House Inn. Built in the Pre Civil War period, the house is beautiful. The inn is just a block off of the main street of historic Beaufort, where there are shops, resteraunts, carriage and walking tours and water front sidewalks. We were treated well, served refreshments daily and desserts at night. Breakfast on... More

My wife and I spent three days at the Inn and wished we could have stayed longer. The staff are incredibly efficient and friendly, the rooms beautiful, and the Inn and grounds are kept immaculate. Some pleasant surprises were the afternoon cocktail hour with complimentary champagne and hors d'oeuvres and the complimentary desserts and coffee in the evening.

Three nights here in April. Stayed in the cottage across the street, in an upper floor king. Pros for the room: the room was a good size, a nice large bathroom with a whirlpool tub, and the room had a fireplace. Plenty of seating space. Cons for the room: the bed was very firm and two of the pillows were... More

Very beautiful, house and intimate formal gardens Spent a solid week here, during my son's wedding. Staff were outstanding, top to bottom. When I asked for something the response was action, not just polite words (polite words were used also.) We had complicated room needs, varying by day, which were met perfectly and gracefully. The atmosphere of calm and balmy... More

I absolutely LOVED The Rhett House Inn! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was great as was the service. The home is beautifully maintained. Relaxing in the parlor during afternoon tea/lemonade and cookies or the early evening cheese and crackers was so comfortable and peaceful. Dessert on the veranda was almost romantic. Breakfast was really nice to... More
