At a Glance

In the heart of Harleston Village is where your Wentworth Mansion honeymoon will begin. The historic neighborhood in Charleston is delightfully compact, comprising less than ten blocks between King Street and Ashley River, and the Wentworth Mansion enjoys an ideal central location. The history of the luxury hotel dates back to the 1800s when the property was built as a private home for a prominent businessman. An extensive multimillion-dollar renovation underwent in the 1990s elevated the mansion to newfound heights, with opulent amenities added and the original architecture beautifully preserved.

There are 21 rooms to choose from, ranging from the lovely East Wing Rooms with optional romantic features like a warm gas fireplace and two-person Whirlpool tub, to the Grand Mansion suite, which is the pinnacle of luxury with Italian chandeliers, Tiffany stained glass, and marble fireplaces. Packages tailored to couples enhance the Wentworth Mansion honeymoon experience, including the Nights of Romance package, which includes premium accommodations, a 3-course Circa 1996 dinner, a relaxing couples massage, fresh flowers, and dreamy turndown service with champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries.

Perhaps the most significant addition during the remodel was the addition of the Spa at Wentworth Mansion. Fourteen-foot vaulted ceilings and extraordinary architectural accents serve as the setting for a plethora of couples’ experiences like massages, facials, and wellness treatments designed to put your mind and body at ease. The signature massage is a 90-minute journey of bliss with warmed oils including original blends like ginger and lemongrass, wintergreen and eucalyptus, and lavender and tangerine.

Charleston itself is an idyllic city and perfect for honeymoons thanks to renowned restaurants, iconic national landmarks, and endless entertainment options. Adding to the menu of activities is the Wentworth Mansion’s own collection of exclusive experiences, including wine classes, cocktail classes, and one-of-a-kind tours of the city in a 1928 Model A Ford Sport Coupe. Modern romance infused with classical touches awaits on your Wentworth Mansion honeymoon.
