Even though accommodations in Beaufort have increased in number, prime lodgings can fill up fast, so do call ahead.
This well-maintained hotel in the heart of the historic district puts you within walking distance of many shops and restaurants. The views are lovely, and you can see the water from the front terrace. Ample rooms have two queen or king beds. There's also free parking and an outdoor pool in a secluded courtyard.
This 1960s-era motel was cleverly transformed by its hip owners to reflect their minimalist style. The central location in the heart of downtown Beaufort is ideal for exploring this charming town. The California-queen-size beds have a stash of plush pillows, fine linens, and fluffy duvets, and bathrooms are chic, with soaking tubs, separate rain showers, and high-quality toiletries. You can get breakfast or lunch delivered from the gourmet coffee shop on the first floor, and there are bottles of wine for sale. Request a second-floor room, as you are less likely to hear guests drive away early in the morning.
