Our stay was excellent. It has way better ocean views than in the photos. Outside balcony could use some attention as far as cleaning. Unit was not ready at 4 as promised but it was ready about 415 so we had to wait. Door lock was finicky. If you’re patient you will be ok.

Great stay at Isle of Palms Shipwatch 306A

Shipwatch is perfectly located just far enough off the main drag to minimize traffic but close enough to require only short drives to restaurants and shopping. The properties are a short walk to the huge beach of IOP. We had plenty of room to sleep our 6. There is room to sleep 8, and there are three full baths. We would stay here again.

Last Minute Amazing Trip

My family and I were supposed to go to Florida and seen a hurricane coming and decided to switch to Charleston a day before leaving. We found this gem and it was perfect! Views of the ocean, short walk to the pool. Have to drive to shops and restaurants but its only 10 min down the road. Beds are a little squeaky and some reviews complained about dated furniture but it served its purpose. Would stay here again

Beautiful view from our room & family room of the ocean and sunrise. Condo could use updating, one more bedroom with a bigger bed would have been nice,, and a fridge with a water filter. Overall, everything thing was good, and we had a nice visit with family for Thanksgiving.

Our stay

The stay was great, the only issue we had was that it is advertised as there being a hot tub which is what we wanted the most. We were extremely disappointed that there wasn’t one. Please update the list going forward.

The property is AMAZING! The location and the view are top notch and the condo is very spacious. The only low ratings were with the management company. First, we were told of the beach restoration project AFTER we made our reservation and were not allowed to cancel or even receive a discount because “we still had access to the beach”…yes if you wanted to drive a golf cart further down—and not to mention the horrible noise we had all week from the machinery. I am happy to post a video to display that. If you are visiting after this restore is completed, it will be amazing. We probably would have chosen elsewhere had we known ahead of time or had been allowed to cancel without losing our money. As it was we kept our doors shut and did not visit the beach. Next, we arrived to a bathroom that obviously had not been cleaned (we cleaned it ourselves), keys left in the lock and missing parking passes. I tried contacting the company many, many times—through VRBO and through text with just a “we’re looking into it” and never received a resolution with parking. We went to the front gate and asked if we were ok with just the pass they gave us when we came in and they let us know we would be fine—but again we had to resolve it ourselves. I really hope the owners see this as their property is amazing—they need to speak with their management company. It would be a five star stay otherwise.

Very nice unit, great beach

This is a very nice end unit with a nice view of a very nice uncrowded beach. The only ding is the doors to the master bathroom. These are an example of form over function. Solid doors would be much more appropriate. All said, this is our second trip to this beach and property; we would rent this unit again without hesitation. Avoid the BBQ place at the boardwalk.

Inside of home was very dusty and dirty. We found nail clippings under the couch, hair in the bathroom, coffee pot was very dirty and baseboard through out home was filthy. The guest bathroom shower wasn't working properly nor the toilet. Recliner was broken, blinds was broken and air didn't cool the bedrooms very well. The beach was close by as well as the pool.

The condo was very nice. The only problem was the TV in the main room; lots of trouble getting the right channel with no standard channels available. It was impossible to get basketball tournament. Bedroom TV's were fine.
