Sullivan's Island, SC Location de vacances sur la plage, Best View à Charleston

The location of this rental couldn't be better. There is a large front lawn, and then the beach and ocean. It was great to sit and watch the ships going by on their way to and from Charleston. Sullivan's Island is great, and it's an easy drive into Charleston.

When we arrived, there was a problem with the coffee pot, but the owner replaced it immediately (same day), so it wasn't an issue. The house fits 2-4 people comfortably. As stated in the description, it's an old house. It's one of the bottom units in a 4 unit condo, and while we did not have too many problems with noise (except for the upstairs people who liked to pick midnight to re-arrange furniture), if there are noisy people staying upstairs or in the other downstairs unit, it could be very noisy.

The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, cutlery etc, and there's a tv/pvr, games, books etc. The bedrooms are a decent size and the beds are comfortable. The bathroom is tiny and in need of an update. There is a back screened in porch, but I think it would be better used if it was converted into part of the attached bedroom, or turned into a bathroom, making an en suite for the bedroom, or providing space to enlarge the one existing bathroom.

All rooms have ceiling fans, but the one in the back bedroom sounded like it was going to take off when we turned it on. The strings on the fans in both bedrooms are far too short to reach. We had to stand on the beds to reach them.

You're paying for the location here, but it's worth it for a treat. (Although it's a bit cheeky expecting guests to strip the beds when you're paying the equivalent of an expensive hotel rate).

I can’t say enough good things about this rental! We loved the house, the beach and the surrounding area. We ate at 4 of the many restaurants on the main strip and have no complaints. We also went to the ice cream shop - yum! Even though you have to park in the street we had no trouble finding a spot. This is a keeper for a return visit. Also Heather was very welcoming and kind. I felt that she was just a call away if we needed anything.

We had a great vacation. Loved the screened porch and views.

This was a nice place to stay for a week. The screened porches are one of the best features. It was lovely to sit out there by candlelight and enjoy the night air. If you like long walks on deserted early morning beaches, this is the place for you. Even at the height of the weekend, it wasn't too crowded on the beach.

The owner was great. I left a pair of sandals behind by accident and she got them back to me through the mail. All in all, a very positive experience.

My husband and I and our two toddlers fit perfectly in this space. The beach is just steps from the front door with an amazing view of Charleston in the distance. It was super convenient for us because we didn't have to haul a ton of stuff to the beach. And when my one year old needed a nap, I could just walk back with her and let my husband stay and play with our 3yo on the beach. We loved Sullivan's Island too - it's a great little community with tons of restaurants and nearby grocery stores. The house is old and as such has some "character". The only complaint is that the beds are not comfortable, but after the first night we adjusted and slept just fine. It's worth it for the location alone. Fort Moultrie is also literally next door, so we spent one morning exploring it with the kids.

Another highlight of our trip was visiting the South Carolina Aquarium. The kids loved it, and my 3yo got to feed a stingray. We also got into Charleston proper for some meals. We really enjoyed Butcher and Bee, Rodney Scott's BBQ, and Minero. My husband enjoyed checking out some breweries (Westbrook was his favorite).

Thanks Heather, for sharing this wonderful spot with us!
