Amazing Stay!
Our second trip to Daufuskie Island was absolutely wonderful, and Tammy and her team played a huge role in making it so memorable. From the start, they helped us with all the logistics, ensuring everything was smooth and stress-free. Whether it was recommending activities, guiding us on where to explore, or simply being available for any questions, they truly made us feel at home. Our daughters, ages 4 and 8, can’t stop talking about how much fun they had! We spent hours searching for sand dollars and starfish on the beach, and our nightly sand crab hunts became a favorite family tradition. The cottage we stayed in was perfect – beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and with the most incredible view of the sunrise over the ocean every morning. Tammy’s team ensured we had all the information we needed, from what to do on the island to local tips that made our stay even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a peaceful, family-friendly getaway, we highly recommend the cottage at JonBie Maisons. We can’t wait to return!

We absolutely loved our stay on Daufuskie! This house is truly incredible. All furnishings and accommodations, from the towels to the baking sheets to the coat hangers, are top quality. The bathrooms are gorgeous and the water pressure is excellent — and we never ran out of hot water, even with two adults and four teenagers taking showers every evening. Bonus points for the brand new, large capacity washer and dryer. Tammy is fantastic and I truly appreciate the thoughtfulness that the owners put into this property. We look forward to staying here on our next visit to Daufuskie. Other tips — the beach chairs were a little worn and don’t recline, so we rented chairs that were set up daily. We used our own Shibumi shade and those are definitely popular! We meal planned and brought everything we needed for our breakfasts and dinners, and I was glad we did because it stormed most evenings and we didn’t want to take the golf cart across the island in the rainy dark. We explored the island restaurants for lunches and had a lot of fun - don’t miss Frye’s Corner! It is a little wild driving past the abandoned resort but we also kind of loved it. The Oyster House does a great job and while we didn’t use the pool, it is a great and close (walkable from the house) option.

Beautiful Vacation
Our brief 3 night stay met and exceeded our expectations. The cottage was beautifully decorated and exceptionally clean. I enjoyed reading on the porch while listening to the waves. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we ate all of our meals in, although we heard good things about the restaurants on the island. Thank you for providing the basics so we could pack light. We also enjoyed the well-stocked game cabinet!! This was our first trip to Daufuskie, and my family of five was delighted with the island. We enjoyed the privacy and the wilderness. We went to School Grounds Coffee and learned about making indigo, and visited the winery and lighthouse, and made a quick stop to admire the beautiful church. Captain Dan brought us over to the island from Savannah, and Daufuskie Life was our shuttle to our cottage--we were pleased with and would recommend both services. Thank you for hosting us! We hope to return!

Fantastic stay on Daufuskie Island
The moment we arrived at the house we were smiling and then we walked in the door and saw the beautiful house in person and then the view and we knew we made the right choice! The house is stunning, every decorating detail is top notch. The bed in the primary bedroom is very comfortable and made the perfect spot to recap our day. Overall we were very happy but we do have a few suggestions that would make this property even better. First, the GFI outlet outside for the golf cart was giving us issues, it probably needs changed. Second, we could not find the remotes for the fan in the LR and porch, we asked about them but they were never provided. Third, we were only supplied one kitchen dish towel for a ten day stay, additional towels would have been nice. Fourth, there were no cleaning supplies to use in the kitchen or to wipe off dining room table. Last, the fitted sheet on the primary bed did not stay on and needed constant adjustment. These are all minor issues but should be addressed. We enjoyed this amazing island vacation and hope to visit again. Shoutout to Katie at Daufuski Waves for setting up our beach umbrella & chairs every morning, it made our time on the beach even more enjoyable!

Amazing experience in the island and beautiful home
I was nervous planning this trip given the need to book the boat to the island, the shuttle to our beach house and limited restaurants and the checkin process but honestly they literally give you all the info and made it easy! Everyone was so kind and the island was such a fun adventure - the house was incredible, back porch amazing for sunrises/sunsets - the beach/water was perfect and had it almost all to ourselves! The showers, beds, amenities and kitchen were #1! Golf cart was perfect-few bikes needed air in tires. Owner met us at checkin and was incredibly welcoming to my husband and I, my in laws, kids and bull mastiff dog, Theo. They had chairs for the beach we used everyday, nice beach towels and even boogie boards for the kids. We had a fire in the fire pit one evening. Our only confusion/challenge was we got to island on Monday and general store I guess is closed on Mon, Tuesdays so we couldnt get groceries til Wed. Fortunately we brought enough things in our cooler but that was hard as well and figuring out where to eat. Not a lot of options and many things close early or have off hours. Once we understood the island and Daufuskie time we were good but took a bit. I would totally recommend Joe Bie Maison, at Dan for transportation in his boats and Pat is wonderful as well with Daufuskie Life! Book it - you won’t regret it!

Wonderful stay, beautiful place! I had been wanting to visit Daufuskie Island for a while and it did not disappoint. The house was as pretty as pictured and the location and view were great. I loved getting up and walking on the beach with my coffee and having it mostly to myself. The trip was a good balance of seeing sites on the island, trying the restaurants and relaxing. Loved the golf cart. I would highly recommend Seaside Serenity!

We have stayed in many rental properties and this one was the first where the host came and explained the do’s and don’t. What we needed to do to have the best time. Restaurant recommendations, nature tips all the stuff. The home is absolutely beautiful and the devil was in the details. We appreciated all the cooking utensils after visiting the local farmers market and grocery store. I do wish the community had a donation place so the items that weren’t used could be used by someone not thrown in the garbage. I would highly recommend this place and look forward to another visit.

Amazing beachfront cottage!
We’ve stayed in several great places on Daufuskie (in the Melrose cottages) and this was the best yet! The inside is completely renovated and gorgeous. Very high end finishes and one of the best mattresses we’ve ever slept on. Huge views of the beach and ocean, great porch to hang out on, and a fire pit for the family at night. We absolutely loved this place. Booking and communications with the property managers (Tammy & Kurt) was easy, helpful and friendly. They live in the Melrose area too so it was nice to have them handy in case we had questions. Phenomenal beachfront cottage!
