Welcome to The Victoria Suite, where traditional Southern charm and hospitality await.

As you approach the building, you'll be captivated by its elegant white exterior, featuring dual balconies that reflect the charm of Charleston architecture. Step inside through the front door, adorned with a coastal crab knocker, and discover your private first floor piazza. Here, the wood-paneled ceilings stained in a deep mahogany, accompanied by hanging lantern lighting, create a serene and inviting space.

Upon entry to your private first floor unit, you'll be greeted by an abundance of natural light, the kitchen's vibrant green floor-to-ceiling ceramic backsplash, a spacious living room, and heart pine flooring throughout.

The kitchen is equipped with stainless-steel cooking appliances, basic cookware, quartz countertops, and seating for casual dining. Additionally, there is a small coffee bar complete with a 12-cup coffee pot, coffee, and flavored syrup to kickstart your mornings.

The contemporary living room boasts an extra deep Crate and Barrel sofa, two sleek side chairs, and a smart TV for entertainment. The color palette of grays and greens creates a cool and sophisticated ambiance, while woven window treatments strike a balance between privacy and natural light.

The Victoria Suite features three beautiful bedrooms, each equipped with blackout blinds and sound machines, guaranteeing a comfortable night of rest. Bedroom 1 boasts a king-size bed adorned with green whimsical Serena and Lily wallpaper. It includes a full armoire with hangers and nightstands with reading lamps. In Bedroom 2, you'll find a queen-size bed, Serena and Lily wallpaper with tropical pink pineapples, and desk that provides a comfortable workspace for those needing to attend to work matters while enjoying their vacation. The room also offers a closet with hangers, a dresser, and nightstands with reading lamps for your comfort. Bedroom 3 features a queen-size bed and tropical Serena and Lily wallpaper with blue watercolor leaves. A closet with hangers, a comfortable reading chair, and reading lamps complete the cozy ambiance. Each bedroom has a mirror, making getting around for those in bigger groups easier.

The Victoria Suite provides two well-appointed bathrooms to meet your needs. Bathroom 1 offers a refreshing rain shower, a dual vanity with two mirrors, and a toilet equipped with a bidet. Bathroom 2 is an ensuite off the primary bedroom and features a convenient stand-up shower. Plush towels, hairdryer, and essential toiletries are provided

Outside, the shared backyard is a tranquil oasis for mingling with friends, playing with your kids, or grilling fresh seafood. It features professionally turfed grounds, a large custom pergola with built-in bench seating, a swing, and poufs. Fire up the grill and savor the flavors of outdoor cooking. The backyard also offers six Adirondack chairs, a coffee table, and a large JENGA set for additional entertainment.

Additional amenities at The Victoria Suite include high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, heating, children's toys/books for ages 0-5, and free parking for one vehicle. Families traveling with young children will appreciate the availability of a pack + play and a highchair. Beach accessories and towels are also provided.

Within a leisurely stroll, a tempting array of cocktail bars, dining establishments, and boutique shops await, inviting you to fully immerse yourself in Charleston's vibrant local scene and discover its cultural treasures.

Additionally, a half block down the street, we have another duplex with the Poppy Suite (top floor of grey duplex-3bd/1ba w/two balconies) and the Isla Suite (first floor-4bd/2ba w/porch), both of which share a professionally turfed courtyard. Be sure to check out the individual listings for a full list of amenities.

To ensure a peaceful and comfortable environment, sound machines have been thoughtfully provided in each bedroom. We kindly request that all guests show consideration towards one another by honoring our community's designated "quiet hours" between 10pm and 7am. By being mindful of noise levels during these times, we can maintain a harmonious atmosphere and ensure a restful stay for everyone.

LAUNDRY

And if this amenity is important to you, be sure to check out our other units on Instgram @TheChalrestonSuites Please note, our cleaners are happy to bring an extra set of towels or bed linens mid-stay for a charge of $25, just let us know if this is something you'd like!

PRE-APPROVED DOGS WELCOME
We wholeheartedly embrace our furry friends! We gladly welcome pups to join you during your stay, with an additional fee of $80 per dog, and a maximum of two dogs per reservation. Because you will be staying in a recently renovated unit within a property that may have other guests, we kindly request that all dogs are well-behaved, trained, and considerate towards fellow humans. To maintain cleanliness and hygiene, we kindly ask that pets refrain from accessing the bed, uncovered furniture, and encourage the use of a crate when you are not present, if you believe it is necessary.

For the comfort and enjoyment of all guests, we kindly request that dogs are not allowed in the backyard. The yard has been professionally turfed to provide a pristine and pleasant outdoor space.

To ensure the safety and security of our property, we have installed exterior cameras. We want to reassure our guests that the footage captured by Ring cameras is strictly confidential and does not violate their privacy expectations.

Any guest found attempting to disable or obscure the cameras may face immediate eviction without a refund. Our intention is solely to maintain a secure environment for everyone's peace of mind.

INCLEMENT WEATHER
We have a strict cancellation policy in place. Refunds will only be issued if mandatory evacuations are ordered by The National Weather Service or local government authorities. Please keep in mind that refunds will not be provided if inclement weather in other states prevents guests from reaching Charleston. We highly recommend travelers to consider obtaining travel insurance, especially during months when weather conditions may impact their stay. Furthermore, in the unlikely event of power outages, internet disruptions, or any other situations beyond our control caused by local storms, we will make every effort to resolve the issues promptly. However, we regret that we cannot offer refunds for any inconveniences caused by such circumstances.

Downtown Charleston

We very much enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect for our family with teen/adult children. The home was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. I was able to jog to the battery in the morning and go around the corner to a variety of coffee shops! We arrived late and hungry so we walked around the corner to a local convenience store to grab some quick food to cook! The location was close to shops and eateries so we walked everywhere! King street shopping was also just a short walk away! The hosts were very responsive and we will definitely stay in one of their properties on our next visit! We did have some issues with VRBO's booking but this was no reflection on the host! The home was beautifully decorated and very clean!

Beautiful place in great location

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful and location was close to everything we wanted to do. The owners have thought of everything and made it so cute and comfortable. The ONLY drawback is that we were downstairs - and every step that the upstairs neighbors make can be heard downstairs. It wasn’t a problem until they decided to walk around and take showers late at night and woke all of us up. The owners are aware of this problem and provide sound machines and earplugs to help. Sleeping with earplugs is not an option for me. They eventually quieted down and we fell asleep again. If you are a light sleeper I would recommend the upstairs unit. Otherwise, great stay and beautiful rental.

Beautiful Charleston Home

My family recently came to Charleston and needed a single night rental before our beach VRBO was ready. We were so pleased to stay in the city in this beautifully decorated home. It had everything we needed, checking in was a breeze, and the hosts were extremely helpful. We would definitely stay again for longer next time. Our favorite part, aside from the decor/styling, was relaxing with a drink in the backyard while the kids played. We drove to Basic Kitchen for dinner and it was wonderful!

Great place to stay! One downside was we could hear people upstairs but it quieted down around 10pm. We could hear them again in morning as well started early 6:30 am or so. Somewhat difficult to find parking spot for us in the dark. Overall a super cute place to stay!

Relaxing in Charleston

This property was perfect for our trip. It was welcoming & relaxing. Just what we needed. From making the reservation to leaving, everything was seamless. Brandy was very prompt to respond to any questions or needs. We were super impressed with the hosts as well as the property. Every detail of decor was beautiful. We enjoyed several meals there and had everything we needed to cook or bake everything we planned. Our family has stayed in 24 states over the past several years, and this was my favorite overnight accommodation because we were the most comfortable and relaxed here. Thank you Brandy! - one last note to clarify for future guests, this property does not have a washer/dryer, but it does have a dishwasher

The property is a beautifully restored in an area that is near to the fun things to do in Charleston, yet out of the tourist fray. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath house was perfect for my two adult daughters and infant granddaughter. Brandy was a communicative and responsive host. I hope we get to experience Charleston and Victoria Suite again.

Great Unit!!

We stayed in the Victoria unit on Kracke Street. Some friends stayed in the Harper suite upstairs. You can tell the owners have spent some money on renovations, and it lives very comfortably. Only negatives were the AC units were a little difficult to control, and storage space was limited. But no place is perfect, and this house was cute, quaint, and well located. And tge owners are VERY responsive. We would definitely stay here again if we visit Charleston again!
