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. *

An excellent location. Condo is beautifully decorated and well equipped. The views and sunset are wonderful. Screened in porch, very comfortable. Would definitely rent again.
This place was fantastic. Beautiful old south charm, including Taint Blue on the porch ceiling. Plenty of room for 2 adults. Easily the best equipped vacation home I’ve ever stayed in. If you couldn’t find it, you didn’t really need it. It’s also a very low key island. No hotels and limited rentals. So if you like feeling more like a resident than a tourist . You’ll love Sullivans island.
Very cool and fun place to stay! Loved the old world charm. It was like staying at a relative or friend’s beach house! Felt right at home. It is equipped with everything you need for cooking and comfort. Only downside for me was the property is adjacent to the public beach access, so there was a lot of coming and going…especially on the weekend. Sullivans Island had been on my list for many years. Very glad to have visited.
The apartment is very nice , great view of ocean and harbor. It’s at the quiet end of the island . The apartment has character and is cozy with nice furnishings , books , movies and more kitchen supplies than you would ever need, also many beach chairs , etc on the back porch. As the building is over 100 years old it is not the most quiet place we’ve stayed , mainly hearing the loud walker staying upstairs and an occasional loud car coming to park nearby to get beach access. This is a great value on the island as there are not too many places to rent for only 2 people . We would stay here again .
My husband and I spent a wonderful two weeks in your lovely beach cottage. Everything was very well appointed and supplied. Looking so very forward to returning next year.
This is our favorite place to stay when we're in the Charleston area! Check-in is effortless, and the condo is cute and clean. We love having a full kitchen with all the appliances, dishware and utensils we need to use. They recognize that their guests are on vacation, so don't even ask you to strip the beds on the (always chaotic and rushed) morning of check-out! Wonderful place, wonderful owners.
After an initial snafu that was quickly corrected, we totally enjoyed this delightful spot. Well stocked kitchen, comfortable and homey. Loved the beach.
This place is great! Quaint with a screened in front porch for breakfast and dinner with a beautiful view! Easy check in and communication with owners!

Beautiful location right on the beach. Lovely porch with a swing and dining table. The owners have thought of everything. Kitchen is well equipped with anything you might need. And, if you like history, you don’t have far to go to find it.
Outstanding location for experiencing all Sullivan’s Island has to offer.

So glad you enjoyed your visit! We appreciate your 5 star rating. We always aim to provide a pleasing and relaxing environment as a base for you to enjoy Sullivan’s Island and Charleston.
Watch the ships entering and leaving Charleston harbor with historic Ft Moultrie next door and Ft Sumpter easily visible. Lovely beach access cottage that welcomes travelers with charm.
Wonderful classic South Carolina beach spot. Excellent Sullivan's Island location, historic building, nicely renovated with comfortable, beachy furnishings. Large screened-in front porch with ocean view. A gem.
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.

We are so glad you enjoyed your vacation at Seaglass Serenity! Please come back often.
We loved the location watching boats, the sunset and dolphins from the porch. Sullivan's Island is quiet and charming with a variety of restaurants and a few shops. The condo was clean comfortable, and beautifully decorated although we spent most of our time on the porch!
comfortable
Spent a week enjoying Charleston and Sullivan's Island. This property is charming. It is very old and quirky but we absolutely loved it! The beds were comfy and it had everything we needed for a week at the beach. While I it was not an issue this is right next to one of the only beach access where cars can be parked. The beach was always busy and there was a lot of coming and going in this narrow drive that is shared with the cottage.
Wonderful retreat at the beach. Lovely condo in an historic building. Gracious hosts provide a comfortable stay with quality linens, well appointed rooms with pleasing decorations and a thoughtful library. Great views of harbor. Hope to stay again.

We are so glad to have hosted you in July! The summer has raced by, and I'm sorry that I have not responded to your review earlier. Thanks for your great review! Having first quality linens and interesting books to read are a priority with me, and it's great to see that they are appreciated. Please come back soon!

This was the perfect get away place! Right on the beach, chairs to watch the sunset every night and a screened in porch for lunch and dinner. This had a great cottage feel, very clean and had everything you needed!

About the host
Hosted by Laura Wall
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.
