Pelican Bay Community in Wild Dunes. FAMILY Retreat! Pool and Amenity Access!

This charming 4‑bedroom coastal retreat at 48 Pelican Bay sits within the exclusive Wild Dunes Resort. Perfectly positioned on a quiet, private cul‑de‑sac just a short stroll from the beach and the private Pelican Bay community pool. Guests love how effortless it is to go from morning coffee to sandy toes or a refreshing dip in the pool within minutes.

Inside, the first level offers a warm and welcoming living space with comfortable furnishings, an inviting dining area, and a beautifully expanded and renovated kitchen. The open and bright layout makes it easy for everyone to gather, relax, and enjoy the home's stylish coastal decor. There is a convenient first‑floor bedroom with a full bed and full bathroom, accessed from the hallway. Off of the living room area, you'll find a large covered deck and screened porch. These outdoor living areas are perfect unwinding in the coastal breeze without ever leaving the comfort of home.

Upstairs, three additional bedrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements. The primary suite features a king bed and private bath The remaining two bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a twin‑over‑full bunk plus an additional twin, share a hall bathroom. A second large open deck on this level provides even more space for lounging and sunbathing under the Carolina sky.

The decks both upstairs and down are wonderful for entertaining and enjoying the great outdoors. 48 Pelican Bay is an elevated home which allows for convenient parking and storage underneath.

HOUSE NEEDS CLEANING, Porch was dusty and dirty

Enjoyed the location to beach. Porch needs a thorough cleaning and carpeting needs cleaning or replacing. Bottom outside step and platform need repairing. Never spoke with manager.

Overall good experience

The house is in a great location and the neighbors are very friendly. We love visiting Wild Dunes every year and look forward to each stay. We have used Sweetgrass properties in the past and have never had an issue. However, this time the cleanliness of the property was less than ideal. The floors were visibly dirty and we found food and empty water bottles under and behind furniture. Honestly, it looked like no one cleaned the place before we arrived. To the credit of Sweetgrass they did answer my calls quickly and, on a Sunday, (totally unexpected) and scheduled someone to come and clean the floors. Very responsive and very professional. Bottomline: The rental needs some love and updating. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay. There were plenty of towels, toilet paper, toiletries, and kitchen supplies. We would stay in other Sweetgrass managed properties.

Great Experience

There were 4 of us for a "Girls Trip". Everything was just as described and very clean. Our favourite area was the screened in porch. When we weren't at the beach, we were on the porch. Quiet neighbourhood and a great walking area. We would definitely stay there again.

Wedding Week

We loved the location in Wild Dunes and the proximity to Charleston. The pictures are a bit exaggerated as the space is small and cozy. It is also not a “bright” house in the trees but the porch is great for gathering. Nice to walk across the street to the beautiful beach

Good location, close to beach and shops, nice golfing - if there’s no alligator on the tee box - lol

Great property. We loved the location. With regards to the property, in general a great property. I have a few comments regarding the property. I feel that overall, the property could be a little cleaner. The fridge/freezer and oven/stove were both clean. The linen on the beds and towels were also clean. There was a dirty sock under the coffee table, it was not one of ours, so I left it there. So, the table was not moved for cleaning - vacuuming. We found that some cutlery and crockery were not properly cleaned, whether it’s the dishwasher or not properly washed by hand, especially the knives and forks and coffee mugs. The propane for the grill was finished after grilling our first night. The office was very helpful in getting us a propane refill, but the grill didn’t want to work after that. They immediately came and fixed the problem. However, the grill inside was very dirty and actually did start a grease fire. The grill inside was packed with grease from previous grillings. Fortunately my husband was able to stop that immediately. But, we still had a great time and enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

Cozy beach house a short walk from the ocean

Our family and friends enjoyed being in the Pelican Bay section of Wild Dunes, with such an easy walk to the beach and a relaxing porch to unwind on when we returned. The open kitchen and access to a grill made meal prep easy and fun.

Nice place

Clean and up-to-date place. Only two things that were challenging...(1) Only one key to the house so you have to constantly keep up with who has it(Key pad with an access code is much easier), and, (2) Parking was difficult. We had three cars and you constantly have to shuffle them around.

Lovely home

Pelican Bay was a very clean, updated home that was cozy. The rooms appear a bit larger in the online pictures. There is a walk to the beach that would be much easier with a golf cart as the beach area only allows golf cart parking, so with a lot of stuff and kids in tow it's a little bit of a hike..& if there is a pop up storm you have to scramble to get back in time. The pool was very crowded as expected during 4th of July week but at least it was in the neighborhood. Also, the house is nice but only one bedroom has an ensuite bath. Two bedrooms share a hall bath and the downstairs bedroom has a bath across the haul near the family room. All in all it's suitable to large families who don't care to be beachfront.

Great time

The house was great. It was clean, fairly well stocked. It took a bit to adjust to the difference in picture size vs the actual size and the location to the beach, but came back to reality. Overall amazing stay and with family and friends. I would recommend options for renting supplies from the home owner instead of the rent al companies. Thanks for the house.

Very nice, new, clean and spacious

Our family of 7 with two small kids had a great week here in August. The house is very nice, clean, spacious and well equipped. We had no issues and the service by Sweetgrass Properties was terrific. We sent down some stuff for the kids via amazon and they had delivered it to the property before we arrived! The location was the selling point for us. Easy 3 minutes walk to a nice, medium size pool and 5-10 minute walk to the beach. We did a bunch of morning/afternoon excursions to Charleston and just enjoyed the water. We saw dolphins right off the beach. Highly recommend.

GREAT VACATION HOME

Super nice with everything we needed for the family. We even found games to play. The short walk to the beach was easy and the owner's beach house was directly behind our beach chairs providing a restroom only a few steps away. Pool right there too. That was a big help for my mom and kids. Pelican Bay is a lovely setting for a wonderful vacation. We will be back.
