The neighborhoods
Charleston is a walking city surrounded by marshes, islands and historic estates. Your advisor chooses a hotel within strolling distance of the restaurants, books the tables that fill weeks ahead, and plans days out to the gardens and the sea islands.
Church steeples, cobblestone lanes and the City Market, with King Street’s shops and restaurants close by.
Rainbow Row, grand single houses with shaded piazzas and the harbor views of White Point Garden.
Middleton Place, Magnolia and Drayton Hall, where gardens and guided tours tell the full story of the people who lived and were enslaved there.
Kiawah, Seabrook and Johns Island, home to the Angel Oak, quiet resorts and miles of marsh and beach.
Folly Beach, Sullivan’s Island and Isle of Palms, each less than half an hour from downtown.
Southern charm, salt air and a table worth the trip.
One advisor to shape every day around you.
Experiences
Every journey begins with what matters most to you.
Shrimp and grits, she-crab soup and oysters, from celebrated dining rooms to waterfront shacks.
Kiawah Island’s Ocean Course, host of the PGA Championship, and other courses across the Lowcountry.
Carriage and walking tours, Fort Sumter by ferry and the International African American Museum.
Historic churches and rooftop views that earned Charleston its nickname.
