Very nice stay

Love the closeness to the beach. There were lots of sea shells. Beautiful place to stay. The TVs in the bedrooms didn't work. We let the reality know tvs was fixed but never got a remote for master bedroom. Love the shower to except it had a step up to get in and you have to step down to get out. Had a great view. We all had a great time.

Great Location

The location is perfect and the pictures of the condo are spot on. The only negative comment I have is the thermostat could not be adjusted and stayed on 72 degrees. My husband and I did not sleep well at night because it was too hot. I would recommend installing a fan in each room to help circulate the air flow.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a great place to stay while I looked for a permanent home for my wife and I as I had changed jobs and moved cross-country. The staff at Island Realty was very welcoming and accommodating and went above and beyond. The condo's location was spectacular, right on the beach, and the amenities were great.

Fun in the Sun

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property has a lovely oceanfront location and a convenient boardwalk onto the beach. Parking is convenient. The staff at Island Realty were great. (Thank you Aine O'Brien!). We liked the proximity to Mount Pleasant and Charleston and took the opportunity to walk the Ravanel Bridge (great views from up there). Our only concern was the inconsistent WiFi and cell phone reception. We have not experienced this problem in other units.Overall, a great holiday location and a superb place to just relax and enjoy the beach!

Great location but not well appointed

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The proximity to the beach and pool is wonderful, but we were disappointed by the lack of love and attention to this unit elsewhere. With a little effort in amenities, this has potential to be a wonderful spot. Having basic things like good cutlery and extra towels would go a long way. The unit was not well cleaned upon our arrival either. Almost all of the dishes we pulled out of the cabinets were filthy and needed to be hand washed before use.

Thanksgiving Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice property. Loved the landscaping, especially the live oaks. The kitchen is fully stocked, enough for a family Thanksgiving dinner. Internet and cell phone service is spotty to poor. Beds are comfortable. Second bath is small for two adults (second BR has two twins). Master bath is huge. There is a washer and dryer.Large balcony, Ocean View. There is beach even at high tide on this part of the island. We had some issues to report on maintenance but Island Realty was not available due to the holiday. You can leave a voicemail but they aren’t going to fix unless it’s a real emergency. Generally we would be ok with this, but the extremely high rental cost for IOP properties seems like we would get better service - or even better drop the prices.

First time in IoP

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the location of the Shipwatch development, a beachfront condo is tough to beat. But when you pay top dollar for a rental, there are certain expectations that should be met, and unfortunately, A 204 fell short. It was not a single item, but a series of small things that when combined made for a less enjoyable vacation. There were no door mats to wipe our feet when entering the property, so walking barefoot on the tile floors made our feet black. The kitchen light didn’t work, the dishwasher leaked water all over the floor the only time we used it (before checkout). The single towel bar in the bathroom was falling off and unusable, the faucets in the master bath were loose, and there was a leak in the drywall above the master shower, so we avoided using this. Both irons were leaking and put rust stains on my white shirt, and the Air Conditioner was very noisy. The WiFi didn’t extend to the balcony, rendering one of the best features of this unit off limits for my daily vacation ritual of checking emails and attending to business. Wild Dunes is a gated community and we would like to explore it further, we didn’t partake of any amenities nor the restaurants. However the latter seemed to have many mixed reviews. We encountered several folks driving golf carts on the roads, and even a few youths behind the wheel in the dark which can be unsettling. The security seems to do its job and I was reminded by a guard that residents with bar code stickers using the right lane get preference. He didn’t have to tell me that, just keep the gate down because I’m not driving through it. We enjoyed the Shipwatch pool area and even met a couple owners on the beach who were very welcoming. But the best feature of this unit was the proximity to the beach and after all, that’s why we plan this kind of vacation.Overall, we would return to Isle of Palms, but this owner and Island Realty need to up their game to keep folks retur

Would not recommend

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Rented this unit based on reviews which were good. Unfortunately it did not live up to those. The whole unit needs extensive updates such as painted walls, baseboards, bath fixtures and needs. There was peeling paint, the walls were all scuffed in many places not just a few. The master bath shower had no door sweep so water ran onto the floor during a shower. The hall bath had mildew growing on the ceiling. There was what appeared to be blood stains on a blanket, comforter, and a couple throw pillows. The curtains were stained in several places and not easy to pull shut. The tile floors grout was dirty looking in places. The comforter in the master had bleach like stains on it. I have stayed in several condos through the years in IOP and this is by far the worst. The location is great. So all in all I can not recommend this at this time.

Vacation Week at Shipwatch Condo (Sept, 2024)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in this very same condo 2 years ago which is the main reason we rented it again for this year's breach trip. It has been perfect for our needs. The location near the beach as well as at the resort, the layout of the rooms, and the condo's amenities suits our needs perfectly. The unit is also very quiet.In addition, the unit was really clean and neat upon our arrival. The overall leasing experience from leasing, check-in, and the weeks stay was all we could ask for.We definitely will be back hopefully next year. Our family has been coming to Wild Dunes just about every year for the last 30 years and continue to enjoy our stay at the resort.
