Visitors to Savannah, Georgia, can board one of two vintage, handcrafted wooden watercraft that make up the fleet of Kessler Charters. Choose the stunning 34-foot Decked Out Clarion, described as a “classic cocktail model boat” and fitted with luxury components including sumptuous leather seats and gleaming mahogany surfaces. There’s also the elegant 28-foot Kessler One. Fully restored, she sports an all-weather Navy top, four seats and a mahogany interior. More importantly, the boat — built in 1924 — retains her sparkling Roaring Twenties allure.
Passengers can relax while savoring the coastal views of Georgia’s Lowcountry on itineraries along the Intracoastal Waterway and Savannah River. Award-winning captains are at the helm during the Sunset Cruise or Daytime Dolphin Cruise, with cocktails and nibbles served on board. Book the Island Tour and cruise to Daufuskie Island for a gourmet picnic lunch on the island’s shore.

Sep 11, 2024The Somerset on Grace Bay Review
If you’re taking a large family getaway or a “friendcation,” regular hotel rooms might not cut it. Even if you book adjoining rooms or a more spacious suite, accommodations most likely still won’t have all of the amenities to make your stay as comfortable as it could be. But if your brood happens to be planning a beach getaway to Turks & Caicos, The Somerset on Grace Bay can provide an inviting oceanside home away from home.
