PB hotel design editorial

Carved from 20,000 acres of South Carolina lowcountry along the May River, Palmetto Bluff was developed by Crescent Resources as a private residential community before Montage Hotels & Resorts established its presence here in 2016, absorbing what had been the Inn at Palmetto Bluff and expanding it into one of the most land-rich resort properties in the American Southeast. The white clapboard main inn, visible from the air as a cluster of gabled pavilions reflected in a lagoon threaded through live oak and longleaf pine, draws directly from the vernacular architecture of the Carolina lowcountry — deep porches, pitched metal roofs, and a pedestrian bridge connecting the main structure to an octagonal waterside bar that could have been lifted from a nineteenth-century fishing camp. Inside, Montage Palmetto Bluff moves between two registers. The older inn rooms deploy a restrained plantation vocabulary — dark iron four-poster beds with linen upholstered headboards, wide-plank hardwood floors, plantation shutters filtering the green light off the marsh, and X-frame benches in nailhead leather at the foot of each bed. Newer cottage accommodations shift toward a fresher coastal vernacular: whitewashed shiplap walls, washed-brick fireplaces, navy accents, and rattan bed frames that feel less period-conscious and more attuned to contemporary lowcountry living. The resort bar, with its octagonal coffered ceiling, cherry millwork, and cognac leather club chairs gathered around a sculpted alligator mount, gives the whole property its most distinctly local note.

Montage Palmetto Bluff Reviews

"This was my third trip to Montage Palmetto Bluff, and it continues to impress every time. We arrived earlier than expected due to storms on our travel day, and the staff was incredibly accommodating—our home was ready right away, which made a stormy afternoon much easier! The home we rented was absolutely fabulous—spacious, beautifully designed, and felt like a true getaway. It had everything we needed and more. The food across the property was excellent, and one of our favorite activities was biking around and taking in the scenery. There’s so much to do, and it’s all so well maintained. Most importantly, our kids loved every minute of it. They stayed busy the entire time with all the activities available, which made the trip even more relaxing for us. Overall, another amazing stay. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!"

"AMAZING stay! My husband and I did a 2 night getaway to Montage at Palmetto Bluff and had such a relaxing time! The Speakeasy was so much fun, entertainment/live music was great, drinks were perfect! Our cottage as absolutely amazing, service overall was exceptional. Clearly this is a well run resort with so much to offer. We will be back soon!"

"The staff were the best part of this hotel experience. Wonderful information and assistance provided by Bill and great breakfast service from Regine! Overall we’ve been fortunate to stay at a number of “luxury” resorts and this one disappointed in terms of price for overall experience. Quiet, pretty property but isolated with limited dining options. Navigating the “Palmetto Bluff” property versus the “Montage” was tricky in terms of where we could walk, bike, etc. our guest room was nice-clean and spacious but the heat/cool did not function properly and windows were not clean outside. I had high expectations which the staff, valet and restaurant folks exceeded, but otherwise we were underwhelmed."
