This property provided everything we needed for our stay. It is nicely appointed and spotless. The neighborhood is quiet but very close to the charming town of Port Royal. Communication with the owner was excellent. I will choose Palmetto Moon again when I am in this area.

We really enjoyed our stay in Palmetto Moon Cottage, a very welcoming home with lots of thoughtful touches by the owner. Lovely but homely decor throughout the house, all facilities very comfy and as per description. Excellent location for peace and quiet, yet within walking distance of Port Royal attractions and easy drive to surrounding area. Host very welcoming and good communication. We hope to visit again in future.

This little apartment in Port Royal was one block from Madisons restraunts, one block the other direction to Fishcamp on 11th. (You have to google those, and then you have to go there1) It was minutes from Hunting Island State Park, the lighthouse, the Penn Center. We took a short day trip one day to Fort Sumter, and another to downtown Savannah. It's just an awesome place

We recently moved to the area and stayed at this rental for a month while looking for a home. The location was perfect, the house was clean, and the area was safe! Our experience couldn't have been more positive. We wholeheartedly recommend it!

Very nice place for a relaxing getaway from everything and I mean everything really not near anything a little look out that they call a beach in walking distance but a hour drive from the actual beach but worth it to drive over all it was great for the price of the house and we do prefer to be in the middle of nobody but a short drive to food and stores

The cottage is exceptionally well-equipped with every possible kitchen item you might need including spices. There were extra hangers provided, as well as cleaning supplies, games, puzzles, and books. The owner was very accommodating and attentive as well as being friendly!
