About this property

Premium Sullivan's Island Beachfront Condo! The Best Location on the Island.


Welcome to 'Seaglass Serenity'... Incredible location.... Beachfront at the mouth of Charleston Harbor, this charming ground floor condominium has views of both the Atlantic Ocean and Charleston Harbor.

The wide sandy beach is ideal for sunbathing, swimming, fishing, or launching small sailboats. The National Park Service and the Town of Sullivan's Island maintain over a mile of undeveloped, protected beach and maritime forest adjacent to the property where you can have undisturbed strolls on the beach. The condo is immediately next door to Fort Moultrie, a National Historic Site with museum and tours, that played significant roles in both the Revolutionary War and Civil War. Fort Sumter, site of the first conflict of the Civil War, can be seen across the harbor. The main channel into Charleston lies nearby, allowing clear views of every ship passing into or out of the harbor. Dolphins play just offshore.

This condo is one of four individually owned units that were originally built as Army Nurse's quarters circa 1910, and are the only vacation rental beachfront condominiums on Sullivan's Island. This unique historic property preserves the charm of the hundred-year-old structure, but this unit has been renovated and professionally decorated to appeal to today's traveler. The condominium features large front and back screened porches with ceiling fans, rocking chairs, swing, and dining area. The remodeled back porch features a Charleston Bed Swing. Inside, the original hardwood floors give the condominium the feel of an old Southern beach cottage, while providing all modern amenities including flat-panel HDTVs (2) with Cable TV, stereo with iPod dock, and High Speed Wi-Fi. The ground floor location allows easy access with parking only a few steps away. The condo has two bedrooms with the beach-side bedroom having a queen bed, while the rear bedroom has two singles.

Sullivan's Island provides a location that is quiet, uncrowded, with a very relaxed lifestyle. There is not a single traffic light on the island. The island is primarily residential; yet it has several excellent restaurants, post office, library, art gallery, and small grocery store within a mile of the condo. The three-mile-long island is perfect for exploring by bicycle or golf cart. Public tennis courts and playground are just down the street. One of the beauties of this quiet oceanfront paradise is that it is only a 15-minute drive from historic downtown Charleston and even closer to the shopping and dining areas of Mount Pleasant.


*This is a Saturday-Saturday, weekly only, rental from mid May through August; 3 night minimum in offseason. *

Beautiful Beach

Great location on the beach on Sullivan Island. Screened porch was great for morning coffee or evening glass of wine and dinner. Adirondack chairs overlooking the beach were perfect for evening sunsets. Beach was never crowded and easy to walk. The unit is one of four in an old house so don't expect modern finishes and features. A small Public parking area for the beach is next to the property so expect some noise but not enough to be bothersome. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Front Porch is Delightful

Beautifully decorated condo, just the right size for a couple. The kitchen is thoughtfully stocked, the laundry facilities and other amenities make for a comfortable stay. The location can't be beat for neighborhood walks, exploring the fort next door, and for watching the ships going in and out of Charleston Harbor from the front porch or the chairs down by the water. This is our second stay at this property, and we're hoping to come again next year. Highly recommended!

A Great October

Perfect days full of sunshine, breezes, mild temperatures. The beach days we dream of. Wonderful seafood restaurants, the church across the street and beautiful olde homes. Spent a majority of time on screened porch, in Adirondacks watching folks on beach and ships pass, and walking the beach. The lovely comfortable four rooms and a good book added to our pleasure. We will return for another week of retirement!

Fabulous stay on Sullivan's Island!

We had a fabulous stay on Sullivan's Island at this wonderful condo. The condo was clean and ideally located on the island. We watched beautiful sunsets in the evening over Fort Sumter and took morning walks on the beach to watch the sun rise over the Atlantic. We would definitely recommend this condo.

Magical!

We really can't recommend this home enough. It's the kind of place you'll want to return to year after year. First, the hosts are very responsive, check-in was a breeze, instructions were clear and everything was in working order. The home itself is tastefully decorated, super clean, very comfortable for two adults and is stocked with everything you could possibly need. The location adjacent to Ft. Moultrie is perfect for history lovers but adding the shade of the Live Oak and an unobstructed view of the Charleston Harbor truly makes staying here a magical experience. It's an amazing view you can take in from the shade of the screened front porch or from the Adirondack chairs overlooking the beach. Be aware, the house does have 4 apartments, you could be sharing the outdoor amenities with others but we had wonderful, friendly neighbors and barely heard them in the adjacent apartments. Great experience. We have stayed in many short term rentals over the years in a variety of cities/countries and I can honestly say, overall, this was one of the best vacation experiences we've had in our 30 years of marriage. If you are thinking about booking, stop reading & do it now. You won't regret it.

Exactly as it was described. Don’t expect a sealed up modern house. Furniture, swings and beds are extremely comfortable. Walls and ceilings are not sound proof but the other guests were all so polite. Views are amazing. No hype commercial 100% Thank you for allowing us to enjoy true southern comfort

Perfect spot for a quiet vacation.

This cottage is perfectly located and has everything you need except comfortable furniture. We wanted to spend the bulk of our time on the porch but the furniture is not made for long periods of relaxation. And inside isn’t either. If they updated with comfortable furniture it would be perfect.

Best vacation ever!

We absolutely loved this place. The owners provided top of the line bedding, towels and extras. The place is beautiful and the location was amazing! We stayed for 7 nights and enjoyed watching the ships roll in and out of the Charleston Bay. We enjoyed seeing the sand crabs every night on the beach. We could not have asked for more. We will definitely stay here again.

The Perfect Closure For This Family

What was planned as a sister's trip last fall turned out to also be a celebration of my husband's (their brother's) life. We had not stayed in this unit before but loved every minute being there. As children, they visited their grandfather at this property. He lived upstairs in the unit that is a personal residence. They spent every summer playing on the beach and hours and hours exploring Ft. Moultrie, sleeping on the porch and listening to the ships at night. After the graveside service at Magnolia Cemetery, we brought our children back to visit because they had never been inside any of the units. We had pictures on display of my husband from those early years for follks to enjoy. Reminiscing through the pictures and looking out to where it all happened was an incredible joy for us all. To be able to share those memories with 2 more generations! They spent time on the beach, time at the fort, and hours talking and laughing. It was the perfect closure for us. Thank you for the chance to enjoy Sea Glass and the Serenity we found there. We soaked up all the low country life we possibly could! The condo is so comfortable and beautiful. The books, the history, the decor all added to the comfort we found. We look forward to our next trip and hope it will be soon!!!

Winter storm!!!

Like so many all over the country we chose Christmas week to travel w/ the biggest winter storm they called a “lifetime event!” It was 19 degrees on the island and the HVAC broke!! No one’s fault, but maintenance responded as best they could and the owners were very accommodating!!! Thus said, there isn’t a better spot on Sullivans! We love this location and will continue to come back! It truly is a little piece of heaven!!

About the host

Hosted by Laura Wall

Host profile image
We are a family of four from Atlanta who have been vacationing in the Charleston area and South Carolina Low Country for many years. We have come to enjoy the Charleston area best of all. We find the combination of Southern Charm, history, shopping, and excellent food compelling. Now that we have an anchor at Sullivan's Island, we are happy to share the beautiful, quiet beach; access to wonderful local restaurants -- especially seafood; friendly locals; historic Ft. Moultrie, Ft. Sumter (viewed from our condo), the beautiful ships coming into Charleston Harbor; and historic, authentic, Charleston!

Why they chose this property

We wanted a beachfront location that was free of crowds, quiet and relaxing, yet close to excellent dining and entertainment. We enjoy the history of Charleston from the old rice plantations to the fine pre-revolutionary city homes. Charleston has a grace and charm that few American cities possess. From the performances of the Spoleto Festival, the excellent antique shopping, the tours of historic sites, to the Shrimp boats and fishing charters on Shem Creek, Charleston captivates. Sullivan's Island provides easy access to all this, but seems a world away from the bustle.

What makes this property unique

Our unit is one of a four-plex that are the only beachfront condominiums on Sullivans Island. The Island does not permit hotels or motels on the Island and new short term rentals are not allowed, making our condo a rare opportunity to stay beachfront on Sullivan's Island. This is an extremely relaxing location, beachfront at the Charleston harbor entrance where dolphins play, and you get close up views of all the ships entering the harbor. The island is perfect for bicycle riding, has several excellent restaurants within a mile, and is loaded with history. Outdoor activities abound, from deep sea fishing, to wildlife tours of the salt march, to excellent golf on nearby Isle of Palms.
