A vacation, a retreat, you bet! Sea View Inn has been welcoming guests to its tranquil setting since 1937. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the island became a retreat for wealthy rice planters to escape the heat of summer.

Today, Sassy and Brian Henry, continue the tradition of offering a comfortable and casual hideaway, full of charm and hospitality, steeped in tradition and history.

All guest rooms at Sea View come with a private half bath, a large overhead fan, and 2 beds (1 single bed and 1 double bed). Each room enjoys cross ventilation from a central courtyard and either ocean or marsh views.

Three tiled showers are available in the main house and there are private hot water beach showers for those returning from a dip in the ocean. An adjacent cottage behind the inn has six rooms.  Some rooms have a porch and all rooms have air conditioning and a fabulous view of the pristine saltwater marsh.

Sea View is known for its excellent seafood and low country cuisine. As a guest at Sea View Inn, you'll be treated to three fabulous meals each day.

Wake up to a breakfast of juice, coffee, eggs, toast, sausage or bacon, and grits. Sample pancakes, cereal, and fresh fruit. Morning coffee starts on the back porch at 7:00 am, and breakfast follows at 8:30 am.

The dinner meal  is served in the early afternoon (1:15 pm), and may include fried chicken, fresh vegetables, salad, homemade biscuits, and dessert.

In the evening, at 6:15 pm, sit down to a table full of mouth watering pasta, crab divine, oyster pie, seafood gumbo, jambalaya, salads, and bread pudding.
