About this property

Private Pool, 4BR/4.5BA, 1 Block to Beach

I Hope You Dance, 714 Carolina Blvd, Beach House is wonderful with private in ground pool! Only 100 yards to beach access and a short walk to local restaurants, shopping and entertainment. Everything is right outside your door!

Immaculately built and decorated for comfortable low country living! Open floor plan with hardwoods and high ceilings. Beautiful kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, double sink, undercounter ice maker and wet bar. Laundry room next to kitchen with pantry, freezer, wine/beverage cooler, washer and dryer. Dining table seats eight and seating for three at kitchen island.

Comfortable living room with gas fireplace and flat screen television. Living room has 3 pair of french doors opening onto screen porch overlooking private pool with lots of seating and dining table for four. There is a private den/sunroom with sectional sofa and television.

The nautical inspired third floor lookout (with window walls on 3 sides) has ocean and intracoastal waterway views. Sunsets and July 4th fireworks are amazing! There is a television and comfortable seating for hanging out.

Wonderful House

This house was the best beach houses we’ve stayed at ever and we’ve been traveling together for over 20 years. Each bedroom had its own bathroom. The pool was immaculate. One thing that would have made the pool better would have been a railing of some sort to aid in getting in and out of the pool. We traveled with a 73 year old. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

A Gem in Isles of Palm

I rented this lovely house for a family reunion. 5 adults and 4 children. More than enough space for everyone. The homeowner is great to work with. She had a wonderfully stocked house. With 4 little ones we did a lot of meal prep. Kitchen was a dream with spices and all the pots and pans we needed. Highly recommend this house. Great pool and 3 minute walk to the beach.

Nonna’s 70th Birthday

Our family of 10 stayed a week at this lovely home to celebrate a milestone birthday. The kids (and adults) loved the private pool, proximity to the beach, and the convenience of restaurants and shops a short stroll away. The bedroom layout was perfect for our group as every room offered a bathroom in suite. We would most definitely come back again if we visit Isle of Palms.

Accommodations were very nice.

The pool people are not doing a good job , however the owner was very nice about the problem. We were able to correct some of the issues and the pool man finally came. Something is still amiss with the chlorine levels. Other than that everything was great.

Great Beach Home

Our family spent the last week of June in the "I Hope You Dance" house. It was even better than the pictures presented. Beach access was just around the corner and the IOP business district was an easy walk. The next time we plan an IOP vacation, we will check availability of this house first.

Beautiful home away from home in the South

We LOVE this house. This was our second time there, it’s perfect for our family. Spacious, gracious, comfortable and beautiful. The extra den area is perfect as are all of the porches. Eat in on or goi out to eat with lots of restaurant options nearby. Pool, beach, outdoor shower, eat, pool, chill, rinse and repeat! We had cups made to commemorate: our time together “Thoma vacation 2023!”

Annual family reunion

We had a wonderful visit. We especially appreciated having a bathroom for each bedroom. We also liked having several different living room areas so that some people could watch TV or visit, while others could read a book. The home was well equipped and the owner was so wonderful to work with. We hope to return in 2024!

Excellent house in a great location

Had a fantastic stay in this beautiful, spacious, clean and comfortable home which we found perfect for our family holiday. ( Three generations in our case ) Our grandchildren loved the pool. This house has everything you need and is well maintained to a high standard. The location is perfect for the beach and the local restaurants and shops are within walking distance. Would have no hesitation in recommending this property to others.

Stay at I Love to Dance

The house was very spacious and perfect location to the beach. We arrive later in the evening and ready to just relax. We found out there was no soap, shampoo, or conditioner in the any of the bathrooms. So that was a trip to the Harris Teeter to get some. There was no dish soap or dishwasher soap. We read the directions for staying at the house. The one thing we were suppose to do was wash two loads of linens before we left. There was a veery very small amount of detergent in the container so we never washed any of our clothes and used the small amount of detergent to wash one load before we left. There were no extra garbage bags so we bought some to put in the garbage containers before we left. We would love to stay again but would like some of these items to at least start our stay.

I Hope You Dance

The property was lovely and location to the beach was great. I had my adult children, their spouses and one grandchild in our group. When we read the check out instructions, we were surprised and somewhat annoyed at what was expected of us in addition to paying a cleaning fee. Our last evening and morning was spent doing laundry and cleaning instead of enjoying our final hours. We all felt that this information should have been shared before booking took place. We are hardly lazy people, but did not expect to have such requirements before leaving, especially if it incurred an additional fee. In addition, for the cost of the house, we felt like a few more things might have been provided, such as toilet paper and trash bags. Before we left, we washed all towels and sheets, took out all trash and recycling, thoroughly cleaned the kitchen and vacuumed. I believe your housekeeper had a very easy day. Robin Sander

Troubled Pool

Overall the house clean and in a great location. However, two issues 1. There were issues with the fire alarms upstairs that may have been on timers, but they went off at 2am most nights even after changing batteries. 2. And most important! The pool does not have a working filtration system. By day three the water was green and both my daughters got severe ear infections. There was suppose to be two pool service trips for the week. No one ever showed up. After the third day the pool was not usable and by the end of our seventh night stay it looked like a swamp. I have photos that im happy to share if any interest. We tried to contact the owner and they never responded. Have no intention of going back to the house.

Lovely, stately, spacious beach house

Our travel party consisted of two parents and two elementary aged kids. We all loved the house. We could walk to the restaurants as a family without complaints from the kids, but we were far enough away to have tranquility on the front porches. The house is one street back from the beach, so there is very little traffic along the street. It's shaded by two big, old Live Oak trees, which give it a peaceful, Southern feel. I timed the walk to the beach (as a parent heavily laden with beach supplies) at two minutes. Going back and forth to the house was not a big deal. Again, b/c the house is just a little down the beach from the pier, it's mostly just locals & renters. Everyone was very friendly. The bedrooms are all large and the bathrooms are not cramped. The master bedroom has a large changing area and a private porch. The front bedroom on the 2nd floor also has a private porch. The 3rd floor is a crows nest, which was very charming. Finally, there are lots of games for adults and kids for rainy days! There is a nice little wash house with a shower near the pool for getting rid of sand. There are beach & pool supplies at the house. If you're planning to use the pool, check with the owner first since (I believe) it's seasonal. It's clear from the many small touches throughout that this is a house that is a home to someone, not just a money-making rental.
