About this property

Oceanfront Sea Cabin on the Front Beach of Isle of Palms

This third floor condo has the best views in the community. See all the way to the Morris Island lighthouse from the balcony and Wild Dunes from the front door. Just steps from the beach, private fishing pier, Isle of Palms County Park, and pool.

The kitchen includes upgraded cabinets and counter tops, plus new stainless steel appliances including a French door style refrigerator.

The cozy bedroom, typical to Sea Cabins, has been opened up to the rest of the condo with glass French doors. No feeling cramped here! The addition of a built in dressing vanity/workspace with upper cabinets in the hallway makes this area very functional.

The condo sleeps 4 with a queen size bed in the bedroom and a queen sleeper in the living area.

Sea Cabins are the perfect place for a family get-a-way or romantic vacation.

Ocean views

We enjoyed the wonderful views of the ocean from our balcony. We could watch the sunset over the ocean from the balcony and see the moon rise through our bedroom window. The beach was easy to access and a very short walk. Very relaxing!!!!

Nice, quite, clean property. Had everything we needed for our long weekend stay. Lovely view of the ocean from the third floor. If stairs are an issue, this may not be the property for you.

Isle of Palms Getaway

We loved the location and view from the 3rd floor balcony. Check in and communication was awesome! Hurricane Debby had just gone through and communication was excellent. The unit itself needed a little TLC, the remotes on the televisions didn’t work real well, but we didn’t visit to watch tv. A recommendation would be to add hooks to hang towels on the balcony. We used the high chairs on the balcony but didn’t use the low chairs. It was our first time visiting and we had a wonderful time! We will definitely come back!

Easy to find location with a stunning view of the Ocean! The outside property is clean and well kept. You also see a lot of the freights/cruise ships coming into port. The condo it's self was not so great. Smells of mold which you can see black mold by the ceiling lights. The carpet is extremely dirty. Multiple lights didn't work (bedroom side light, porch, bedroom main light). Dishes that were put away were disgustingly dirty. Bathtub was not draining so not sure how that could have been cleaned. I personally cleared an insane hair clog to get it to work. The gate/pier code didn't work and it was found to be "expired" and it was frustrating that a new code wasn't sent when this occurred. There is also no security of a lock at night for the front door. Even hotels give this option. And we found out that the gate is not individual codes so how often is the door code really changed and who has access? Makes it feel uneasy staying at night not knowing if someone could come in.

Beach Getaway

Upon arrival was very pleased with the cleanliness of the unit and how well equipped it was. The views of the beach and the ocean were spectacular from the unit. You couldn't get much closer to the beach than from this unit. Would definitely stay there again. If you have problems with stairs, this 3rd floor unit might not be the best for you as there is no elevator.

Our Beach stay

This was our first trip to Isle of Palms and we loved it! Being so close to the beach was great and we enjoyed the pool! The building is in need of some updates. We couldn’t get the kitchen island lights to work and the volume wouldn’t adjust on the living room tv, and bedroom tv did not work at all. Luckily we had our iPad to watch.

Cute little condo but needs many little repairs. The freezer was a disaster and stayed iced over the whole time, to the point that sometimes we couldn't get the door open.

The location was great. I think next time I would reconsider getting a first or second floor unit, climbing and lugging up to the third floor all the bags and groceries were a little tough without an elevator.

Great stay even if the weather was cold!

My wife and I stayed at this same property last year. Not much has changed - which is mainly good. Property could do with some minor touch up and maybe a TV we could Chromecast to, but that won't stop us from returning! Awesome views of the sunrise and sunset!

Very Pleasant Stay

We are not strangers to the area, and get down here at least once a year. We usually stay at Folly Beach, so first time at Isle of Palms. These condos are a little worn around the edges, but very functional. We had a 3rd floor condo in the Northeast wing, so the view of the beach was nice. But, the bedroom was weird, very small. The double bed took up the entire length of the room and you had to access each side from different doors. If you were straightening the bed covers, you had to do one side, then go out the door and go in the other door to do the other side. VRBO won't let me say which condo it was, so make sure you check the pictures carefully if this is an issue. Otherwise, it was fine for two people. Kitchen was well equipped, except no wine opener. Good view of the beach and ocean and very close to the beach and pier access points. Good parking. Also a good location, close to the IOP causeway. If you cycle, bring bikes to ride the beach from mid low tide to mid high tide. Really compact so most bikes other than skinny-tire road bikes will work. Overall, it was a nice stay.
