Enjoy all that Wild Dunes has to offer in this cared-for Shipwatch villa. An easy walk down to the beach, views of the community pool, and being just a stone's throw from the golf course means there's truly something for everyone! You can't go wrong either way. Wind down in the living area and watch your favorite sit-coms or movies on the flatscreen TV after spending the day at the beach or at the shared pool. This beachfront retreat boasts a convenient outdoor shower so you can cleanse off the sand, a shared gas grill, and even a balcony with great views.

Overall, excellent stay in IOP.
The room was clean and overlooked the pool. We could see the ocean from the balcony. The area wasn’t crowded and was a very short walk from the pool to the beach. My only negative about the condo was the uncomfortable twin mattresses in the second bedroom. They were extremely hard, and I woke each morning with my back hurting.

Serenity
This was a perfect place to rest and relax! Easy beach and pool access. Great location for an easy drive into Charleston for excursions. We enjoyed beach walks, sunset dinners with dolphins, tour of Fort Sumter, Schooner Pride day sail, Palmetto Carriage ride of the city, a night cheering on the RiverDogs baseball team and many wonderful places for happy hour/dinner.

Good location. Unit needs a refresh
This is our second stay in this unit. Shipwatch is a great location (the reason for the three stars) but this unit is in desperate need of a few upgrades. Kitchen counter was broken off over dishwasher, couch needs replaced, some rust on the bathroom fixtures, to name a few.

Great location
The property is in a gated community, which decreasd beach traffic and made our days in the sun more enjoyable. The accommodations were spacious enough for my family and everything we needed was there. Great balcony view and great local restaurants, too.

The beach was clean and not very crowded. Shipwatch needs to reconfigure some of their parking spaces to allow for people to get to the beach without navigating between a column and parked car that completely blocks the only stepless access. Our unit had tiles missing from the kitchen counter and exposed moldy wood. When reported to Vacasa they blamed it on the previous guest. This was clearly a long term problem.

Great location, comfortable unit
Nice, basic unit looking out over the water. It was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. Vacasa is completely automated and does not respond to small requests. Luckily we did not have anything major that we needed, just a few small broken items like lightbulbs, batteries and the toaster.

Fantastic getaway
From the time we arrived until the day we left, the area was perfect. The community was beautiful and felt very safe. Walking in the mornings was very relaxing and refreshing! The room location couldn’t be beat, we were even surprised by the view of the beach from the balcony. The condo was well kept, clean, and the bed slept well. No noise noticed from the neighbors; every now and again, you could hear water being ran or flushed from the upstairs but that wasn’t bad at all. The parking spaces underneath the building are very small are a little tricky to get into. Larger vehicles may struggle getting in and out when it’s crowded (but there are spaces around the building too).Very kid friendly. Easy walk to the beach, and they even had beach chairs and sand toys to use… I’ll definitely be back as soon as I can!

Nice and clean condo with nice views
The condo and the location were great, the only issue I had was that the pool tiles were very dirty, that was pretty off-putting as we are big pool people, and it made me wonder about the overall cleanliness of the pool. Everything else was lovely.

Nice place!
Love this place, felt it was as as advertised. It was clean when we arrived. We love staying in the gated community of Wild Dunes so this was perfect for my family. The only con that we found was the shower in the master bedroom was raised but the shower head was not. My husband had to slightly bend to get under the shower head, but that was minor.

Outstanding experience
The property as just as advertised. A view of the ocean and the pool, spacious, clean, well equipped (see below), quiet after 10 as requested, comfortable. We specifically wanted a unit with a washer and dryer, and that was present and great. The only issue was the ironing board that had given up the ghost. The local Vacasa staff had a replacement (brand new) in less than a day. Without knowing the area, we chose a location that turned out to be several miles from anything when it was time to sight-see. That's on us as the listing was very sure to have a map to know where the property was. I would recommend both Vrbo and Vacasa for a easy and excellant experience.

Sewage problem
We always enjoy the beach at Wild Dunes but had a major sewage smell in the master bath. Unable to use shower and all had to use the remaining bathroom. Had to use lots of spray and keep the doors shut. Also a gnat problem probably due to the sewage smell. The unit was not properly cleaned and had to purchase coffee maker and cleaning supplies. Unit should not be rented until sewage problems resolved.

Location was the only good thing
My daughter and best friend and myself all booked a 3 night stay at Shipwatch C-116, we loved the location and the pictures looked great, clean, put together. We arrived not knowing it was in a gated community. We had no idea where to go or what to do and that was just the start. When we arrived in our Vacasa home away from home there was dried blood on the comforters and pillow cases, it was not clean, or anything like the pictures. When we went to Vacasa to report these things they said they would send housekeeping and change all the sheets and comforters for us. Instead we were given a garbage bag full of more sheets, not including anything we asked for. There were no beach towels or chairs or anything for the beach/pool. Everything was very cheap and not well kept or taken care of at all. The only good thing I have to say is the location was great. I do not suggest this specific condo.

Nice Place
All in all, this was a nice place to stay. Personally, I like a little more hand holding through the process. For instance, more details on exactly where to park (in the open spaces or below the unit?), where was our unit (we ended up finding it easily, but just didn't know until we walked around), etc. Our screen door and curtain rod pull fell off; however, we didn't get a response about fixing it. I didn't press the matter as we ended up leaving early due to Hurricane Ian coming our way. Lastly, the condo was very clean; however, it really smelled like bleach. This was not good for me as I am sensitive to bleach. I would advise the owners to either rinse and air out really well or find another cleaning solution that is less potent to sensitive renters like me. Like I said early on, this place was very nice. Just a few minor things that, if did not happen, could've given it a five star review. If I wasn't so reactive to bleach, I would rent here again. Great location and amenities!

Not very clean
This condo was on the second floor in a decent sized building. The unit had all the amenities needed except for enough toilet paper for 5 nights. It was a two bath condo and only one roll of tp in each. I contacted the manager and they said that is all we are supplied even though the contract says two rolls in each bathroom. They never brought more. The water pressure in one of the bathrooms was so low that you couldn’t wash your face or brush teeth. We used the kitchen sink instead. Should be an easy fix to get that working better. The bathroom was not very clean. Hair and other things in the floor. The floor in the main part of the condo was dirty and sticky. The location was great being close to the beach and pool. It was a bit deceiving that you couldn’t access the main pool at wild dunes without renting through them directly. We rented bikes and that was lovely to ride around the neighborhood every morning.

Poor Property Management
I've rented vacation properties a few dozen times and have never experienced these two incidents before, ever: delayed entrance into condo because of a code issue and the biggest one yet...an inspector BUSTING into our condo! When we were packing up and about to leave some young man at our door announced he was from Vacasa WHILE he was entering our code and then proceeded to walk into our unit! I was NOT granted the opportunity to answer our door. This happened at 10:50 and according to the contract our departure time was scheduled for 11:00. Once he entered 3 feet into the hallway and saw us in the kitchen he stopped, announced he was from Vacasa and that he was there to inspect the unit. Stunned and shocked, I let him know we still had 10 minutes, but I should have scolded him!!! He did NOT apologize and apathetically said "oh" and walked out. That was the most unprofessional event I have ever experienced!!!! As for the delayed entrance into the unit, this was of high annoyance. I was told we needed to wait 15 minutes before reentering the code a second time. After waiting those 15 minutes and the code still didn't work I had to call the office again. This call was another 13 minutes of waiting on hold. I will definitely think twice before I ever rent through Vacasa again.
