We had a wonderful stay in Daufuskie. The property has a beautiful view of the ocean and is walking distance from the beach. The home has a a king and queen bed in one bedroom and two queens in the other room. The bathrooms have been remodeled and the home was clean. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to prepare meals. The outdoor space has a fire pit with Adirondack chairs and an Outdoor table for meals on the porch. The rental has beach chairs for use and a few beach toys. There are also beach towels for use there so you don’t have to pack towels. The rental is a few houses down from the Melrose Oyster club which has a pool, restaurant and store. We love Daufuskie and enjoy coming back year after year. You nearly have the beach to yourself. Great rental and we would stay here again.

The best rental I have ever stayed at by far. I loved the property but most of loved the owners not only did they meet us in person to explain things but they made our experience and made our trip. We loved the island and will come back for years to come!

Daufuskie

Nice place to stay. Beach is about 100 yards from the back door. That’s about as close as you can get in that area. The golf cart travel is awesome. Kids loved swimming in the ocean. We would do it again.

1st trip to Daufuskie

The views and access to the beach are spectacular! The home came with a very nice golf cart that became our main means of transportation while on the island. The interior of the home has nicely appointed finishes and the management company was great to deal with. We would definitely rent from JonBie in Melrose again!

Beach Cottage

We absolutely loved our stay at the beach cottage at Melrose. The cottage is clean and very well furnished, and offers great views of the ocean and Hilton Head Island. The whole D'fuskie Island experience is extremely relaxing. The people are warming and inviting. Everything is a short golf cart drive away.

Great Stay as always

The logistics of getting to a bridge-less island makes getting here a bit more challenging than some other more traditional vacation spots but it is well worth the extra effort. Property manager is super helpful. She answered all our questions, eased our transportation concerns, and helped us make our time very high quality. Love the cottage vibe and can't wait to come back.
