Wonderful stay in Isle of Palms!

This house is great! So spacious, clean, well-maintained and very well equipped - my only disappointment was that it wasn’t warm enough to spend the extra to warm the beautiful pool and hot tub. Service was terrific - the team was very responsive to our one issue with a drip/leak in kitchen sink. Every kitchen tool you could want. We cooked a Thanksgiving feast for 9 and found absolutely everything we needed to prepare it. Comfortable beds and simple/minimal/pleasant decor. Thanks for a great stay!

Brianna W.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
The house was beautiful! Unfortunately we had to cut our trip short due to bad weather so we were not able to fully experience IOP. We were a little disappointed that there was an additional charge to heat the hot tub and that we could only use it for 2 hours out of the day. We paid a decent amount to be there so an additional 80 “a day” to only be able to use it for 2 hours is a little ridiculous in my opinion. There were little things like stains on the sheets and comforters but overall the house is gorgeous.
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 28 Nov 2025
Thank you for staying with us at Sea Gem. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the home, even if the weather didn’t cooperate this time. On the hot tub: the heating fee is noted in the listing, and we do understand it can feel like an unwelcome extra. Unfortunately, propane has to be trucked onto the island, and the cost is extremely high—so the fee simply covers what it takes to run it. The two-hour window isn’t meant to limit your enjoyment; it’s a safety measure and also necessary for the system itself. The pool and spa share equipment, and they can’t operate simultaneously without risk of damage, so this ensures everything runs as it should. We’ll have our team look into the stained linens you mentioned. That’s not the standard we expect, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We hope the weather gives you a better shot at IOP on your next visit. You’ll be welcomed back.

We had three generations under one roof and everyone had a great time. When the beach got too hot, we could use the pool. I love the fact that they kept the live oak over the pool. Great beach access.
