Our favorite part was the views from living room and bedroom. We LOVED having the umbrella and two chairs set up for us daily. The condo was clean and tastefully decorated. The check in process and communication with Erika and Michael was great! We would love to come back!

Beautiful Beach location!

Amazing location, loved being able to walk out the front porch right on to the beach! The unit could use some renovations in the bathroom and kitchen areas, and the rug in the family room was very hard and uncomfortable to walk on. Overall love staying in Wild dunes, the beach is unbelievably gorgeous!

Perfect spot - right on the beach!

We have stayed in many different Port O'Call villas through the years, and this one is by far the best-situated. It's right on the beach. Even though it rained one day while we were there, we were able to enjoy sitting on the screened porch and feeling the breeze. Can't wait to return next year!

Clean property with great beach access

We loved our stay at The Sandcastle. The condo is perfect for a couple who enjoys the beach. We loved walking right out of the condo and onto the sand. It is also close to downtown Charleston as well as other restaurants and activities if you don't want to spend all your time on the beach. Michael is a great host who made us feel prepared with his recommendations!

We enjoyed a very relaxed and comfortable week at the IOP in this condo! Probably the very best one bedroom condo with have stayed in on the Isle of Palms. Michael was very helpful and pleasant to work with. We will definitely rent the condo again!

6/10 Okay

It was a great location!

We liked the fact that the condo was right on the beach! A few things in the condo were a little rough, especially the cookware, we had to go out an buy a skillet. All in all we had a good time, despite the weather--we were there for all the flooding a couple of weeks ago. The beach is fantastic.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 Mar 2020
Thank you for your recent visit to the Isle of Palms and our condo. Guest feedback is critical to our staff and the property owner so that we can better make decisions regarding improvements to a property. I feel very strongly that any negative experience our guests encounter is unacceptable; not only to me, but also to our entire Beachside Team. Guest feedback is always appreciated and taken very seriously. Thank you for your time to share your thoughts with us. Our staff takes great pride in working with our guest to make sure they have a memorable experience. Our condo has a number of wonderful amenities. The oceanfront screen porch with steps down to the beach is a truly unique feature! In addition, the ideal location at the end of the building adds privacy and wonderful morning light throughout the living room. This condominium offers oceanfront living at its absolute best! Each winter, the property owner works on a handful of projects. With the help of your comments, we have prioritized several of these projects to include the upgrading the kitchen cookware and dishes. We are very excited about these and other upcoming improvements and hope that you will visit our condo again in 2016! Thank you again for your patience and we apologize that the kitchen cookware was disappointing. Our condo is in a fantastic destination with direct beach access and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!

Most comfortable bed and best view of the beach!

My husband and I spent a week at 104F Port of Call and found the unit to be in a perfect spot! It is very nice, clean, the porch is awesome, the view is marvelous and the sound of the ocean lulled us to sleep each night. We were completely relaxed. Thank you to the owners for sharing this treat. I hope we can come back next year!
