Well, I am finally getting around to sharing all of our favorite spots in Charleston. And, I might add that I love this charming, southern city. In my opinion, it’s a clean, laid back version of New Orleans. They have lots of great restaurants too.
We visited twice, and I have never shared the details. We stayed at The Belmont Hotel when we first visited + we stayed at an airbnb the second time. I do prefer staying in the heart of the city. I love to be able to walk to brunch or dinner.

This boutique hotel is very lovely and has stunning views of Marion Square and downtown Charleston.

Wild Dunes is located near the beach and would be perfect for the family. They have everything from restaurants to fun activities for everyone. This place was suggested from a local man.
