The Juliette - Luxury Historic Residence, cottage in Charleston

Well set in Charleston, The Juliette - Luxury Historic Residence provides air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and free private parking. Popular points of interest nearby include Cannon Park, The Citadel Archives and Museum and Hampton Park. The Citadel Daniel Museum is 2.2 km from the holiday home and The Citadel is 2.5 km away.

To start, the home was gorgeous! The photos on the listing page are very accurate and I would even go as so far to say the home was more beautiful in person (which doesn’t happen often with vaca rental homes) The updates and attention to detail in both preservation of original features, as well as incorporating new elements but keeping in the old Charleston character were well combined! The home was pristinely kept. The home offered features not common in rentals, ie Nespresso pods, coffee and tea, sweeteners, cooking basics (oil, salt, pepper). There were delicious local artisanal packaged cookies and a few bottles of wine left as a ‘Welcome’ feature. We haven’t been this impressed with a rental home features since our most recent EU trip. There were lovely toiletries in the bathrooms. Plenty of extra linens, beach towels, trash bags, hand soaps… I could go on! Location: There were a handful of restaurants that were walkable in the neighborhood. Further past that into the lower Charleston area, we took Ubers. There is a bus stop right of front of the home but we didn’t look into it on this trip. There was also a small carry out maybe a block or two east of here, again, very walkable. Would recommend and would return!

This trip was only my wife and I but this space would have been perfect for our 3 teenage boys if they had been with us. The lake view is tranquil and we enjoyed relaxing on both balconies. The kitchen is fully equipped as were all the bathrooms as well. Free wifi and smart TV's made things easy as well. Excellent location next to the outlet stores!

    Option to have breakfast in room, rooftop or lounge area. Great location and walkable area. Room was really nice, clean and the bed was very comfortable.
