The perfect condo for an IOP getaway!

My mom and I took my two children (2.5 and 4) for a long weekend at IOP. This listing was just as advertised! Clean, tidy, spacious and the perfect location! We had such a great experience and would love to come back!

Great location, needs updates

Giving grace on the updates done cosmetically and provisions within, the property was lacking in some functional updates. Issues with plumbing, appliances, and A/C put a damper on our stay. The location and convenience and vibe of the area was absolutely amazing!

Great spot

We had a great time here. A quick walk to some bars and restaurants, and being able to use the amenities of the resort across the street was perfect! Private beach access was very convenient, and fishing pier was a fun touch. The coin laundry being right next to the beach was not enticing, as that’s a lot of walking back and forth for laundry, but otherwise safe quiet neighborhood, clean property, everything as listed. Super easy check in and check out. Very responsive hosting with Island Realty. Hurricane Helene passed through while we were there and they were very informative giving emergency contacts and support throughout. I was very impressed by the service. Defined wouldn’t try to squeeze 6 people. Four would have been perfect. Adding more with the pullout couch would have made it VERY crowded.

Good location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very 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: It’s a nice location, easy access to beach and pier. But as far as cooking in the kitchen for the 2 of us was a major problem. Only one usable fry pan in good condition to cook with and it’s only 6 inch the others need to be trashed. Only one small sauce pot in good condition the other one needs to be trashed. There was no steamer pot for us to cook crabs in , and no mallets. It was terrible trying to cook. You can not cook properly with the cookware in this kitchen even for just two people, very disappointed considering what we paid to rent this condo. If the owners would go out and buy all new cookware , so you could actually cook properly I would rent this unit again.

Fall Wedding Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Family was down in Charleston for a wedding. The rental at Oceanside C 109 was perfect for our family of 4. Great location, was very well stocked - very happy with the rental. Master bedroom bureau needs to be updated or at least drawers fixed so they don't fall out. Both bathroom fans were not working which in a small place needs to be working. But overall enjoyed our stay at Isle of Palm and at Oceanside C109

We love the beach and pier access just steps away and all the great places on the island are less than a block away. I promise you, you will have the time of your life! Private Review:We love C-109, both toilets need to be rebuilt, both are leaking and wasting water. also need a in-kitchen bug lamp for the small flying nats, they were terrible. I almost went over to HT and just bought one. See ya in a few months.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a nice condo over all, there was a few minor things that was not in working order. The only real complaint I have is there is only 1 parking pass. You pay a lot of money to stay here for a week and we have 2 vehicles. They expect you to pay to park in the other lot. I do not think this is far what so ever! Also The Hurricane run us out we only was able to enjoy 1 day at the beach. No fault of ocean realty! I will come back, but strongly suggest allowing 2 parking passes per room again.

The folks at Island realty are the only people we would ever deal with, they are the original IOP realtor and they know how to make you feel like your family. Oceanside Villas is perfect for us, we love to walk to Lawrence’s and Coconut Joes for drinks and appetizers before hitting up Windjammers for music and dancing. Love hearing Chris Tidestorm at Coconut Joes, he alway puts on a good show. We love IOP!

Perfect getaway to unwind

We spent my wife’s birthday here. Originally, we were going to stay in Charleston as that was the destination. We changed our plans to stay here as it was just enough outside of town to keep us grounded and yet close enough that if we wanted to be busy, we could. The property was comfortable for our party of 3-4 and the balcony was great for evening times. Everything necessary (groceries, restaurants, laundry and beach) was within walking distance. We really enjoyed our stay and the property and location had a lot to do with that. Thanks for having us!

Me and Mom for a week at the beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The convenient location was wonderful! First floor and having a walk in shower in her bedroom was perfect for my older mother. Plenty of space! We had room to work on a puzzle every night. Having a kitchen meant we could save money by making our own breakfasts and lunches, we treated ourselves out to most dinners. Can hear footsteps of second floor, but that's expected. Overall we were very comfortable there.
