About Tammy Jones
Kurt and I have travelled and lived all over the United States, from Minnesota, Colorado, and Montana to Georgia and we currently reside in the NC Mountains. He as a utility contractor and me as community manager stay pretty busy, but we both find time to volunteer with Asheville Humane Society and SENC RESCUE - a group dedicated to rescuing Newfoundlands. Our family of three Newfies, 2 cats, and a goofy little terrier mix keeps us on our toes and we enjoying spending our free time with the furry family around the fire pit or exploring our beautiful mountains.
Tammy Jones purchased this cottage in 2017
Why Tammy Jones chose Melrose on the Beach
Years ago when we were living in Savannah, Ga we visited Daufuskie Island. It scored our hearts then and when we returned in 2015 to celebrate a big birthday we knew we wanted to make the island our second home. In 2017 we were blessed with the opportunity to make this little cottage our own and we couldn't be happier! The respite the island offers is priceless. To me, its where luxury meets wilderness and everyone should experience the Daufuskie Island mantra of "You're on island time now" :)
What makes this cottage unique
The cottage puts us directly on the ocean with a view of Hilton Head Island to the north and Tybee Island to the south; and the vast horizon in between. Being in the resort area of Melrose also means we get to meet and greet many of the guests to the island and make new friends every time we get to be there. A short cart ride and we can watch the sunset with our friends at Old Daufuskie Crab Company and return to home to ocean breeze and screen porch sittin'. It just doesn't get any better and we're truly excited to open our new home away from home to others.

Exceptional!

Excellent!! Every need was met. Very clean and comfortable
We had a wonderful Valentines Day/33 wedding anniversary getaway here. Couldn’t have asked for anything better! The owners even left us an anniversary gift which was so thoughtful.The cottage is beautiful and every little need is taken care of. It is beautifully decorated and the back porch is so comfy. The bedrooms are also very comfy. The golf cart is super nice too. I can’t say enough about Daufuskie Island. I adore this place and all the people there. Didn’t meet one grumpy person. Everyone is friendly and very helpful. A great take it easy, go with the flow, enjoy Island time!! Thank you Tammy and Kurt for sharing your property with us. We will be back in the fall.
Charming and relaxing! The perfect place to stay!!!
We had an amazing time. The owners of this home have thought of nearly everything. The home was comfortable and inviting. It looked too good to be that comfortable! There was coffee, wine, travel size everything that we had forgotten. This is the perfect amount of space for two couples or a family. We had a dog on our trip and they had everything we needed. We only needed to bring the dog and his food. The back porch is screened in and wonderful for reading and relaxing. You can hear the crashing of the waves and nothing else. The beach was tranquil and private. We felt like we could truly disconnect here. The local community was fantastic and welcoming. We enjoyed every second and wished we had booked a longer trip. You will not be the least bit disappointed by coming here. We are already planning a trip back next year!!!
Second Visit To Paradise
This is our second visit to JonBie Maison / Daufuskie Island and it was truly paradise. We brought most of our meals with us as there are only a couple restaurants on the island...some may say "why cook while on vacation?" but once you realize that you are looking at the beautiful beach/water as you are cooking who minds? Certainly not us. We did enjoy lunch out at Lucy Bells and lunch at the Daufuskie Crab Company Restaurant. Touring around on the island on golf cart is so much fun. We had a wonderful tour guide, Mackenzie give us an amazing tour of the island...even though we'd been before it was nice to hear the stories behind so many landmarks on the island...the two light houses, the beautiful old church, the Daufuskie Cat Sanctuary, eagle nests, etc...... I love photography and seeing so much nature to photograph was true paradise....from the dolphins swimming just off shore, to the many deer you see along your golf cart rides, to the eagles sitting in the trees watching all to the snowy egrets nesty. Just lovely!!! Highly recommend. The JonBie cottage is clean, beautiful decorated and comes with all you will need...just bring your groceries with on the ferry and you will be set.
Serene relaxation
Off season at the beach is spectacular and visiting Daufuskie Island is always like a visit with dear friends. Good things are happening in beautiful Melrose Resort and the future looks very bright. The JonBie Cottage always delivers - every need is met. Five star comfort and five star experience.
This is a "want for nothing" property! Beautiful, Functional, Cozy, Spacious!
The minute we walked in the door, we felt "at home"! This property is in excellent shape and has everything and more that you could ever need. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and comfortable. The kitchen, living area and dining area is functional, cozy and well stocked. The back porch is screened in and is also very spacious. Since I was the early bird in our group, I especially enjoyed sitting by the cozy fireplace while drinking my coffee and reading my book. (which happened to be one of Sallie Anne's cookbooks! - Sallie Anne is a sixth generation local gal who has published a couple cookbooks that showcase the local fare) The view from the living area out to the beach is gorgeous! I loved looking through the tall pine trees to watch the sun rise! The proprietors of this property have done an excellent job creating a positive space for their guest to relax and play. You will want for nothing!
I spent the weekend here with friends for my 50th birthday! It was a great choice and I highly recommend it. The house, the land, the local hot spots - all of which made my birthday special and memorable!
Property and all in it were spectacular.
This cottage was impeccable, comfortable and just fantastic. We had the nicest, most relaxing and fun weekend with our friends and our doggies. Will definitely book another stay.
