Magical Oasis
I don’t even know where to start. Absolutely amazing place to stay. Ginny and Neil were some of the sweetest people I have met. I wish I’d had more time to talk with them. The property really is a magical place from secret gardens to all the lights at night. If you are looking for a place to stay near Charleston this is your place to go. Thank you for a great week.

Beautiful property in a perfect location
Sailors rest is gorgeous, and the owners are very friendly and courteous. They offered fresh eggs and a full kitchen for those who like to cook, and for those who don't, there's plenty of restaurants nearby that don't disappoint.

We stayed at sailors rest for a long weekend. We were greeted by the sweetest sign, welcoming us. We fell in love with the place immediately. it is a natural habitat. We were in awe of the many artistic and unique outdoor venues in this setting. Jenny and Neil were amazing hosts and couldn’t have been more hospitable.

Our family had the most wonderful week long vacation at Sailor's Rest. We couldn't have ask for a more beautiful location to spend our vacation. Neil and Ginny were wonderful hosts. Our daughter absolutely loved feeding the fish, feeding the chickens and of course the pool was her favorite. They made several recommendations for places to visit and eat and they were all amazing! We would recommend this location to anyone looking for a great getaway in Charleston.

Peaceful paradise
This location was amazing for our family. Quiet peaceful area that had things for our kids to enjoy. From the tree house area, the pool, and the Koi pond, our kids loved every second. The kiawah beach was a fabulous spot for us to go. Not busy at all and the owners at Sailors rest have a parking pass to get into it. We loved our week in paradise that Ginny and Neil shared with us!

Quiet paradise
My husband and I recently stayed celebrating our (belated) 10 year wedding anniversary and it was wonderful! The area is quiet but close enough to explore your surroundings. Ginny and Neil are great hosts!! The pictures online are great but would highly recommend seeing it in person. We enjoyed ourselves and plan on returning!!!
