Anchorage 1770 earns Southern Living Hotel Collection distinction

May 8, 2017

Anchorage 1770 Inn is proud to announce that it has accepted an invitation to become part of the Southern Living Hotel Collection, under the banner of Southern Living magazine.

Hand-selected by Southern Living editors, the Hotel Collection is a carefully curated portfolio of the most delightful hotel experiences the South has to offer. From perfectly crafted rooms and restaurants to breathtaking natural surroundings, each of the premier hotel properties captures a charming experience that is both distinctively different and thoroughly Southern.

Anchorage 1770, vetted by the editors of Southern Living, becomes the sole Southern Living Collection property in the Beaufort market. The magazine recently rated the town of Beaufort as the “Best Small Town in the South.”

Owners Frank and Amy Lesesne operate the Anchorage as a full-service boutique hotel with breathtaking water views, plush guest accommodations and a newly re-launched restaurant: The Ribaut Social Club. Visitors seeking the slow, luxuriant pace of life in the Lowcountry visit the Anchorage year-round for specialty cocktails, horse-drawn tours of the historic quarter and authentic Lowcountry cuisine.

The property’s newest distinction from Southern Living will bring a raft of new lifestyle programming to the hotel.

Anchorage 1770 is currently exploring programming opportunities with the Pat Conroy Literary Center, the Beaufort Film Society and other local organizations to give visitors a true taste of the South Carolina Lowcountry. Situated on the sweeping waterfront, guests enjoy seamless access to Beaufort’s historic district, shopping, dining and other recreational offerings in town. The inn’s luxury accommodations and personalized amenities have earned devotees from around the world.

“Anchorage 1770 is a perfect fit for our collection,” said Southern Living Editor in Chief Sid Evans, “and it couldn’t be in a better location than Beaufort, SC.”
