Another Wonderful IOP Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location in Wild Dunes and Partial ocean view over the trees. The condo had a great layout and was spacious. I would suggest a few things to make the condo top of the line: 1. Please upgrade the TVs. I understand you don’t go to the beach to watch TV but you are in the condo at night and the TVs were so small, you could not see the guide. 2. The master bedroom mattress is horrible to say the least. 3. The air only flows in the master bedroom, kitchen and living room. There was zero air flow in the back two bedrooms.

Get away to celebrate Freedom of America💗❤️🇺🇸

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the view and location. The condo needs updating with furniture and den TV. It was not a good picture and No HD. View was beautiful. Food and stuff under Dr table glass. Master bedroom dress had several drawers that would not close so had to prop luggage rack against them at stay closed. The front bedroom with 2 queen beds would not get real cool at night. Island Realty was good to work with and keep you informed about reservations and up to date. Disappointed in condo but loved staying at this site. Had friends in another condo on 1st floor that was very nice. Would recommend the site not the condo. Thank you

Nice Holiday Getaway

We are very familiar with Shipwatch condos and this particular property worked very well for us over a long holiday weekend. The unit had a great view and everything we needed. The only issue we had was that turning on the heat set off the smoke detector. Fortunately, the weather was mild enough to go without it and I did not report the issue to the property manager until we had left. I would return to this rental again.

Slightly disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Shipwatch is a great property, perfect location, lovely pool, well designed property. However, we would not choose this particular unit again. It is in need of general maintenance and updating, decor is dated and dark, beds are not comfortable. At this price point, we expected a more comfortable, inviting condo.

Fantastic place!

Rented this place for a vacation with friends and loved it! I would call it a little cozy but definitely never felt small or crowded. The bathrooms for each bedroom was a huge plus. The location can’t be beat! Super close to the beach and the beach definitely wasn’t crowded for early august, also the pool was great and easy to get to. Parking was super convenient as well. The big thing is to listen to the check instructions and give the fridge some time to cool down before you fill it with groceries. Definitely would go back!

Never again

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The pictures pn line are very nice but look NOTHING like the unit. VERY DARK! Only thing beachy was a jar of shells and a plastic plate with fish on it. Fridge door would not close. Three people came to look at it. finally it was fixed. Ran the dishwasher but did not run the cycle. Just hand washed from then on. So small had to move furnitture to walk. If at the washed and dryer had to stand sides way. Grout and tile so spotty you thought there were bugs everywhere,. TV was so small (probably 19" at best in living room. Bedroom TV was no better and one was just a old computer screen. Broken Lamp, no light bulbs. Air has to be on 67 and two bedrooms still no air. Order two fans for a touch of relief. Old candy wrappers on floos and under couch. It was like living in the Projects! Our family was staying next door and there unit was beautiful. All I could do is Cry! WAY OVERPRICED! I would not have payed 1/2 of the cost.

Great Getaway!

First, we had a great time overall! The requirement for an in-person check in at the Island Realty office is a little inconvenient and outdated. The office is like 3 miles from the unit. Also, the furnishings are a little outdated as well. Those are our only complaints! The pool is less than 1 minute from the unit and you can sit on the balcony and watch the older kiddos swim. The beach is a 2-3 minute walk from the unit - perfect if you need to haul a bunch of beach gear. The HOA requires pool passed that you pick up at Island Realty at check in. There is a $25 fee for lost passes. We lost one the first day - beware. They are not true wristlets so they slip off easily. We ended up tying the rest to our bags, which worked out. Overall, we enjoyed our trip.
