Nestled among the oaks and palms and overlooking the Atlantic, this three bedroom, three bath Shipwatch villa offers a cool retreat for your Wild Dunes vacation. With the direct beach access and oceanfront Shipwatch pool this villa has all you need to enjoy your Low-Country retreat.

The open floor plan has a full size kitchen, with island, overlooking both the dining and living areas and offers everything the chef in your group will need - while also allowing them to be part of the group. It is also worth mentioning that, unlike so many condos, this property has a full size washer and dryer - which can be very convenient.

Both the living room and master bedroom open to the ocean facing porch. You are looking at the ocean through the boughs of an aged oak tree contributing just the right amount of shade in the afternoon. This is the perfect place for enjoying morning coffee or evening cocktails.

All three bedrooms have their own private bath. Each bed is dressed with 100% cotton sateen sheets and feathery down pillows - the perfect place to rest if you've had a little too much fun in the sun. We have tried to make each bed as comfy as we like our own beds at home!

Of course, in today's high tech world, we have smart TVs in each room along with high speed internet for those that simply cannot afford to "unplug". We hope you'll consider our small slice of paradise for your next Low-Country vacation!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned condo, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. The bathroom has a jetted bathtub. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.

April Vacation

We enjoyed our stay here for a week in April. We had perfect weather and our favorite part was leaving the screen doors open and hearing the beach all week. The patio was great. The walk to the beach was easy and accessible with multiple boardwalks to choose from. Chairs and umbrellas are not supplied, but that wasn’t an issue for us and you can use a rental company. The unit itself had been updated so it was a bit different than the photos suggested but we were told that would be updated soon (and the updates t the kitchen and master bath were very nice). The only issues we had were a strong mildew smell in the unit and the pillows are pretty flat. The TV also has poor quality, the color is blue. The room layout was great for us with comfortable beds. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here and the Wild Dunes complex is a great place to stay with a lot to do.

Awesome stay!

My family and a couple of our friends escaped the aftermath of hurricane Helene for the South Carolina coast and this place was the perfect spot for us all to decompress. The condo is beautiful, well equipped, and very comfortable. The beds were awesome. Communication with the owner was excellent. We hope to return soon.

Birthday trip

The condo is clean, beds comfortable and the location is great. Easy beach access. We had two nights the A/C didn’t work (tech thought he fixed it after the first day) which made sleeping difficult but management was quick to respond and they accommodated us. All in all a great ladies birthday trip.

This was an excellent condo. I would stay there again. Our only problem was the elevator was out the entire time; however, that was due to the Tropical Storm Debbie, not the fault of anyone. Being on the second floor helped. I would recommend this condo to anyone. I do not think you would be disappointed. The property manager was excellent also.

Nice, but could use an upgrade

This was a nice area, close to the beach, had elevator, and you could always find a parking space. The pool was very nice, but as you can imagine, the hot weather makes it more like a hot tub. We stuck to the ocean which had the perfect temp.. That said, the unit definitely needs an upgrade. Washer/dryer, pot's/pans, and appliances. This was a new spot for the family, we usually go to Sanibel Island FL and stay in the same unit every year, that was until the hurricane destroyed the complex. We would pay half of what we paid for this unit, and it was always freshly renovated. All in all we enjoyed our stay, but were a little disappointed.

4th of July Family Trip

We love IOP and Wild Dunes! The location of the unit was great and the unit was spacious and comfortable. There were a few things that need improvement: Dryer - awful never drys. Need continuous cycles like 4 cycles for each load and I did NOT overload - horrible buzzer which will wake the house. Microwave has no power had to heat things for extended time. Bath towels - super old worn and dingy - to include hand towels and black makeup towels. We were advised that there were No beach chairs, beach towels - but REALLY? It’s a beach condo and we are from out of town. TV- horrible picture and color. Split line across the middle. Rules regarding resetting TV and $150 charge seemed excessively punitive. WiFi was lousy. Both my son and husband had difficulty working from the unit. I had trouble just with my cell phone and the WiFi not being strong enough. It was better outside so I dont think it’s a “barrier island” thing.No cleaning products - how are we supposed to maintain the unit if there is not even any windex? Too many rules - clean this, leave that, wash this, strip that. We paid a lot I should not be told to strip beds or leave towels washing especially since I had to provide my own laundry detergent. Balcony- not clean or blown off. Spider webs old hair sand spill marks. I had emailed prior to arrival to inform I was allergic to feathers. I never received a response and assumed it was because it was a nonissue only to find the house is full of down pillows.

Beautiful as advertised!

This property was perfect for me and my two teens and could have accommodated more people comfortably! It was clean and updated as advertised and management was incredibly quick to respond to questions. The view was beautiful and it was great to have access to the pool when we needed a beach break. We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing beach property / Outer Banks

This amazing condo was right on the beach AND had a swimming pool! With 3bd/3bath it was large enough for my family! Everything was extremely clean and the towels and linens were perfect and comfortable! The lovely bathrooms had been updated and the photos just needs to be updated on VRBO as we were expecting a tub in the master, the property manager was very responsive. It was a perfect way to visit Charleston and stay just outside the city. I would absolutely rent this property the next time we visit

Fees tainted the experience

Overall it was a good property but per night cost for a early November stay was not worth it. Owner charged an extremely high per night cleaning fee for a 3 night stay. On top of that high fee we were left instructions to strip the beds, wash the bedding, empty the garbage, wash the dishes. Gouging guests will not get return visits.

Review at Isle of Palms

We had a wonderful, enjoyable time at Isle of Palms. The Condo was very comfortable and more than enough room for all of us. We loved the beach and the view of the beach right from the deck was so refreshing. Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much and would choose this area again in the future.

4th of July Week

Propery was perfect for our group of 7 (5 adults and 2 kid). Cute beachy/coastal decor. Comfortable beds. Plenty of room in the bedrooms and bathrooms. Kitchen was conveniently stocked for our group. Living room and patio look out toward the beach. There is an elevator in the building. Parking is conveient and there were even luggage carts to help you get your bags and groceries in and out. The pool is close and had plenty of chairs. It is not too far of a walk down to the beach and its decked for part of it. The residential Wild Dunes community the condos are in is really nice. It is not a big "party" atmosphere which we liked, but had plenty of activities at tbe Pavillion if you choose. We were there 4th of July week so there was extra traffic and getting out to the store could be a little inconvenient but it lightened up significantly after the 4th. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this unit!

June 24th to July 1st 2022

Property was very good. Beach and pool were very nice. Local restaurants and shops in IOP for the most part only have street parking very hard to find at peak times. Reasonably close for visiting Charleston and Mt Pleasant. Condo only had a few issues, needs more silverware in the kitchen. Also the glass shower doors in the twin bedroom are not seated properly and are very hard if not impossible to slide.

My wife and I brought our son, daughter-in-love, and two grandsons to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary at the beach. We had a wonderful week enjoying the sun, sand, and sea together as well as the many sights around Charleston, Mount Pleasant, and Isle of Palms (or as our grandson put it "Palm Tree Island!" ) Shipwatch Villas was a wonderful place to stay and enjoy our vacation!
