Regatta Inn
Folly Beach, South Carolina
Staying at this 10-room property, tucked into the Sunset Cay Marina coastline, feels like you lucked into your rich friend's getaway house for the weekend instead of checking into a retreat opened by two industry insiders. Regatta is nothing if not laidback, offering the kind of "kick your shoes off at the door and grab a drink" welcome that may make you feel like showing up to breakfast in your bathrobe. (But don't, that's kind of weird.) If you prefer homegrown hospitality to formulaic luxury, this is the place for you. Filling three towering floors, the guestrooms are bright and spacious. Their décor reflects the town's seafaring ways—think headboards repurposed from real sailboat sails and toss pillows in blue, white, and red nautical stripes. Each room opens onto an expansive porch with chaise lounges or Adirondack chairs—perfect for watching the sunset or the dolphins nosing around the marsh.
THE DEAL 10% discount on any room, free bike rental, valid Sunday – Thursday, January 16 – March 31
To book, call 843/588-0101 and mention "Southern Living"

The Willcox
Southern Living Hotel Collection Property
Aiken, South Carolina
Once you pass a line of quaint cottages and rambling mansions, you'll pull up to this white-pillared Colonial Revival beauty. Genteel Aiken, the heart of thoroughbred horse country, is the setting where your dreams of the Old South come to life. Imagine 22 guest rooms with soaring ceilings, period antiques, feather beds, and luxury marble baths—it's no wonder this hotel was a popular "winter colony" for New York's high society in the 20s and 30s. Check in at the pine-paneled British club-style lobby then head to the rocking chairs on the front porch, Arnold Palmer in hand. To refresh from the Carolina humidity, take a dip in the outdoor swimming pool or indulge at the hotel's salon and spa. For the more adventurous, hiking trails and bridle paths lace the 2,000-acre surrounding park, while golf enthusiasts can easily find refuge nearby. Pack your riding boots, and be prepared to savor each gracious moment this Southern oasis has to offer.
THE DEAL Early check-in and late check-out (based on availability), signature cocktails and culinary treat upon arrival, continental breakfast daily, special evening turndown service, 20% discount on premium rooms, 10% discount on guest rooms, house made cookies upon departure, valid until March 31

Capital Hotel
Southern Living Hotel Collection Property
Little Rock, Arkansas
Visit the Capital Hotel and you'll soon discover why Arkansasians call it "the front porch of Little Rock." The 94-room hotel is that home-away-from-home where you'll want to put your feet up and stay for a while. Although the hotel is smack dab in the middle of Little Rock's expansive downtown, you won't even have to leave the hotel for a drink or bite to eat (the hotel hosts a wine cellar, a bar and grill, as well as a formal dining room). Grab a Moscow Mule and browse around the beautiful, gold-trimmed lobby. And though the century-old, grand staircase is tempting, take the elevator—it was supposedly built large enough to accommodate President Grant and his horse.
THE DEAL "Steppin' Out Package" includes: overnight accommodations, complimentary valet parking, welcome amenity, tickets to either Clinton Library or Esse Purse Museum, upgrade on arrival based on availability
To book, call 501/370-7062 and mention "Southern Living" or "Steppin' Out Package"

One Ocean Resort & Spa
Southern Living Hotel Collection Property
Atlantic Beach, Florida
With vibrant Jacksonville as its neighbor, One Ocean Resort rests on a serene, white sandy beach just minutes away from Florida's largest city. Spend a weekend seaside here in the dead cold of winter, and you'll feel like you've taken a tropical escapade even if it's not quite warm enough to wear your flip-flops. With activities galore, such as sailing charters, helicopter tours, and deep-sea fishing, nothing here on Atlantic Beach is run-of-the-mill. But, we wouldn't judge if you never left the resort itself—the One Ocean Spa's sea-inspired spa treatments, including its signature "Seashell Massage," are too difficult to pass up.

The White House Hotel
Biloxi, Mississippi
In the 20s, the White House Hotel was the home-away-from-home for the South's most affluent travelers. On any given day you'd see ladies adorned in Flapper inspired dresses on the wide front porch, and on the front lawn, Southern gentlemen donning summer whites would gather for a bit of sport. Today, this legendary Grande Dame of Southern stays is once again taking her curtsey. Guests enter through a dramatic circle drive (parking is in the rear) where a baby blue 1954 Buick Skylark Convertible is on permanent display. Inside, you'll find a lobby bar with white leather couches and low-slung lights. Black-and-white photos of the hotel's heyday hang on the walls. In the rooms, the minimalist design—chalk grey color palette and modern, silver furnishings—lets the true star shine: the bed. With decadent fluffy down and a lavish stack of pillows, it makes morning your worst enemy.

Pinehurst, North Carolina
As you drive along the whispering pine-lined avenue to The Carolina Hotel, the countryside elegance of a bygone era greets your arrival. The hotel's copper cupola and sweeping verandas await. Inside, it's no secret you'll find evidence of American golf history archived all over the walls because, well, golf is Pinehurst's claim to fame. A short stroll (or bike ride if you so desire) from the hotel will take you to the historic village of Pinehurst, a wonderland of quaint shops for strolling. Whether you plan on making a tee time or not, you'll find the little town of Pinehurst impossible to resist.

Craddock Terry Hotel
Southern Living Hotel Collection Property
Lynchburg, Virginia
Nestled along the banks of the James River in picturesque Lynchburg, Virginia, the Craddock Terry Hotel hosts a 44-room boutique escape for travelers seeking a delightful riverfront experience. Once a turn-of-the-century shoe factory and tobacco warehouse, the hotel pays homage to its origin by serving breakfast in old-fashioned wooden shoeshine boxes and offering guests shoeshine services upon request. We all know shoes can make an outfit, but in this case, shoe memorabilia make a hotel. For guests who can't bear to leave their pets at home, this pet-friendly property eagerly awaits furry visitors. And the four-legged greeter you'll see at the front door? That's Buster Brown, the hotel's Wirehaired Fox Terrier and a Lynchburg local celebrity.

For an international-style stay without even having your passport stamped, head to Hotel Havana, a 27-room Mediterranean Revival located in the heart of San Antonio's Riverwalk. Originally built by a successful local grocer in 1914 as a residence hotel for his buyers, the hotel is newly revamped to reflect the colorful and interwoven history of this Texan city. Between the Bastrop pine floors, antique furniture, Turkish rugs, and Cuban artwork, you'll really feel like you left the country, no high-dollar airplane ticket necessary. And that multi-color striped kimono robe in your guest room? You may be tempted to wear it out in public, it's that cool. And don't leave without a taste of Ocho, the hotel's restaurant and lounge, where you'll find a blend of old and new worlds on their pan-Latin inspired menu.

The Brice
Savannah, Georgia
Sure, Savannah has moss-shrouded oak trees and charming squares in spades. But the Hostess City surprisingly lacks personality-filled hotels in the midst of the action. Kimpton—a boutique hotel firm that offers kitschy, personalized, and inexpensive stays—has brought the brand's unique aesthetic to downtown Savannah, a central locale where "walkability" is an amenity. The 1860s-era building has been everything from a cotton warehouse to a Coca-Cola bottling plant. Today, it's a modern 145-room retreat reflecting Savannah's influence—look for bow-tied staff, seersucker robes in the guestrooms, and furniture from 24e and The Paris Market (both stalwarts of the city's stylish East Broughton Street) in the lobby. The muted grey color scheme? A nod to Savannah Gray Brick, the legendary building blocks crafted from the Savannah River's gray clay in the 1800s.
THE DEAL $200 deluxe room with $25 welcome amenity, half off valet parking, valid Sunday – Thursday, January 16 – March 31

Whitestone Country Inn
Southern Living Hotel Collection Property
Kingston, Tennessee
Look no further than the Whitestone Country Inn for peace and tranquility. Outside of Knoxville, rolling hills and charming farm country prepare you for this small town-like abode. The B&B resembles a village, complete with a farmhouse, cottage, and schoolhouse (guest rooms are in all three), with dozens of places to unwind on their 600-acre property. Relax in a hammock or porch swing and take in the beauty of the inn's seclusion on the shores of Watts Bar Lake. For the outdoorsman, or outdoorswoman, wildlife and waterfowl frequent the sanctuaries surrounding the inn's open meadows and woods, while hiking trails and water sports are just a short walk from the inn's front door.
THE DEAL $185 Winter Waterfall Package includes: one night in one of eight waterfall spa shower suites, complimentary box of chocolates and non-alcoholic champagne, valid Sunday – Thursday, January 16 – March 31
