Within moments of being in this home, I had envisioned my future self and hubby living in something like it. I loved the extra space assoon as we walked in to leave our shoes and stuff we didnt necessarily need to bring into the house. The long corridor with the bench is amazing too, it just invites you in! I really could go on and on there wasnt a thing I didnt love about this home. I didnt even wear my slippers because I loved the feel of their particular wood floors on my feet. The downstairs bathroom I hadn't even noticed until thr next day when my hubby mentioned it. When I opened that door,it was just another space I fell in love with! I see some wallpaper in my own homes future. Lol! I love airbnb because of homes like this! Loved taking the bike for a ride early in the morning to beat the heat and see the other beautiful homes/architecture, trees and all the lushness of the area. We fell in love with Beaufort!

This review comes from someone with very high standards, 😬 and I highly recommend staying at The Gallery. Besides the home being beautifully decorated, I appreciated mostly how spotless clean and sanitary it was. The beds and linens were very comfortable, which was a big plus. They also stepped it up a notch by providing you with “clean products” for hair care, hand soap, body lotions, etc. The location was great, and on a quiet street. You can’t ask for better hosts, they were fantastic in every way and made you feel very welcomed.

Wonderful home away from home. The home was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The location was perfect—quiet and convenient—and the host was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Every little detail was thought out to make guests feel comfortable. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Beaufort, SC has a lot to offer. Thomas's place was located in an area that was close to lots of the sites that we wanted to see. Thomas's place was within walking distance of Bay Street where the River Walk and lots of action is. Thomas allows guests to use his pass for the State Parks in SC. We visited Huntington State Park with the pass and that visit was a real treat. Weather was great and we really enjoyed the many nice touches! Thank you Annette and Thomas

The fact that this home is booked for months and months speaks for itself BUT I’ll add our two cents. You know those places you walk into and immediately it just feels good and your heart is immediately happy? Yep, this is one of those places. The home is pristinely clean and had very single thing you would need for a super comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable and luxurious. Checking in/out was the easiest! If this gem is ever open again when we are in town we plan to scoop it up! Thank you Thomas and family for sharing your amazing place with us.

We absolutely loved our stay at Thomas’ home. The home was extremely clean,comfortable, and homey. We reached out to Thomas to request reservations and he was extremely hospitable and provided great local recommendations. We loved our stay in Beaufort and everything this home had to offer during our vacation!

We spent Christmas here and our stay couldn’t have been more perfect. The beds and pillows were of great quality as well as the bath towels. This home is filled with character and charm. It will go in our memories as one of our best stays. Tom was very available and super responsive. I appreciated that so much. The home was so close to downtown and all of the quaint shops and eateries. We walked everywhere we went. There are also bikes on property which we forgot about. The kitchen is filled with quality cookware and appliances. Kitchen appliances are updated and in full working order. That’s important to those of us who enjoy cooking. The electric fireplace even worked. I will stay here again next time I am in Beaufort!! Book it, you will be glad you did.

I recently stayed at this wonderful Airbnb, and I can't recommend it enough! The home was absolutely spotless, making us feel comfortable and at ease from the moment we arrived. Tom, the host, was fantastic—so welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring we had a restful night's sleep each evening. One of the highlights was the three amazing porches, perfect for hanging out and chatting with loved ones over a cup of tea. The location is ideal too—there was a lively festival just around the corner on Friday night, adding to the charm of the area. Plus, being close to the airports and just a short distance from Parris Island made it an ideal spot for us, especially since my son graduated from the Marine Corps during our stay. The house also comes with four bikes, which we took full advantage of, and there's even a cozy fire pit for relaxing in the evenings. The kitchen is well-appointed with everything you could possibly need, making it eas

My family stayed at Tom & Annette’s home for my brother’s graduation from Marine bootcamp. Tom was very responsive and helpful. The home is beautiful, the town is beautiful, and everything was clean. Would highly recommend staying here!
