About this property

"Ocean's Song" * LUXURY 5BR/6BA HOME, Pool, Elevator * 1 block to beach * 5-STAR

Hello! THANK YOU for taking a look at our site -- you have made the PERFECT "STOP" -- I guarantee that it is one of the nicest rentals you will find, 5-Star all the way! It is only listed on HomeAway, VRBO or one of its subsidiaries.

Before you get started, I hope you will take a moment to look at our Guest Reviews! These candid comments from our guests will give you a good idea of what you will enjoy during your visit.

**** Also, just to let you know I do rent throughout the holidays.... THANKSGIVING and CHRISTMAS. Dates are flexible during those times, so just let me know what days your family would need beyond the usual week stay. We put up lovely trees and tasteful decorations, so the house looks 'magical' for Christmas!! [Or we can decorate for Hanukkah]

WELCOME to 'Ocean's Song'.... 'The Ocean's Song is the music of our souls!'

This is NOT your granny's beach house!! Ocean's Song is a gorgeous 3,800 sq.ft. house, decorated to reflect the Island/Coastal chic, and yet very comfortable with the 'feel' of a cozy old Isle of Palms beach house, yet it was built in 2007. High end finishes, granite counters, stainless appliances, hardwood floors throughout, laundry room with high end washer and dryer, plus the 'Powder Room' is a full bath as well!!

AND, EVERY BEDROOM HAS IT'S OWN PRIVATE on suite BATH!! This house is designed for the whole family -- children of all ages welcome!!! (We also welcome the four-legged family members as well.)

This home is designed and situated for pool and beach fun! It is beautifully decorated and has every convenience for your stay and yet you will feel comfortable and can 'kick back' and relax!! 'Ocean's Song' is the house you will fall in love with -- where you will want to return year after year!

A few things you will enjoy:

* The entire backyard is a pool [salt water system] area with two levels of decks. Many chairs/chaise lounges and tables make it a great area for entertaining, playing in the pool and sunning! The six burner grill will test Dad's culinary skills.

* The large elevator helps avoid carrying your things up steps, plus it is roomy enough for a wheelchair.

* One block from the beach, it is only a 3 min walk! We have provided beach toys, Boogie boards, Tommy Bahama beach chairs, Beach Buggy, and Beach Wagon. Being one block off Palm Blvd. gets you away from the heavy traffic and all of the 'off road' beach parking for the public. You have private parking and no one will be parking in the front yard except you!

* The Isle of Palms Rec Center is just one block away, with tennis courts, gym, fitness center, basketball court, baseball field and lots of play area for your athletes and the youngsters. And there is also a "Dog Park" for your "other" family members!!

* This house has all the high-end features and appliances you would want -- stainless appliances, french door refrigerator w/ ice and water in door, separate beverage center, oven and warming oven, microwave, gas cook top, Keurig coffee maker and regular coffee maker, plus electric water pot for tea. The kitchen features granite counter tops, two separate sinks, an island and a large outer counter. The kitchen is TOTALLY equipped with EVERYTHING YOU NEED! We also have a separate laundry room with a new heavy duty washer and dryer, plus laundry sink.

* You will like the luxury of the Biltmore Estate sheets and towels, as well as Pine Cone Hill bed skirts. Luggage racks, hair dryers and hand/full length mirrors are provided. Each bedroom is beautifully appointed [with numerous sleeping pillows!] and ready for you to relax at the end of a fun-filled day!

* Ocean's Song has an inverted floor plan. GROUND LEVEL is the garage area where there is a Ping Pong Table, shower and various toys, plus the sliding glass doors out to the pool area. The FIRST level has four bedrooms, each with its own bath. There is also a laundry room on that level. The SECOND level has the MBR with en suite, OPEN kitchen, dining area, great room, extra full bath, and an office with printer for those who are working remotely. Also a screened porch. The THIRD level has no living area, but has furniture for you to sit and relax while you enjoy looking out at the view [ocean in distance] and sunsets!

* Almost forgot to mention the 'tellies' -- 60' HD TV with sound bar and Blu-Ray player in the Great Room, 51' HD TV and Blu-Ray player in MBR, and 40' TV's in all of the other BR's. Also high speed WI-FI

* There is more, but we hope you get the idea!! Some other features are listed below and we will also be glad to answer any questions you may have.

We purchased, decorated and appointed this home to be our own personal vacation home.... We are delighted to share it and HOPE YOU ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS WE DO!! We continue to make upgrades!




I look forward to hearing from you.... YOU WILL LOVE "OCEAN'S SONG" !!

Best VRBO rental yet

We've been coming to Isle of Palms for 25 years and this home was by far the best in every category yet. The cleanest, most organized, stocked with everything you need and a great location. We definitely will rent again as Martha was awesome to converse with if I had any questions.

The Perfect House

Ocean’s Song was a fabulous property for our family. It was wonderful that we all had en-suite baths plus an extra one in the living area. It was spotless and very well appointed with everything you could need and more. The screened porch was so nice. My sister in law spent most of her time there. We enjoyed the pool area and grilled out one evening. The elevator was nice to have as my son tore his MCL two weeks prior to our vacation. We loved this property and its location.

IOP Family Summer Tradition

Perfectly wonderful house that accommodated all of our needs (7 adults plus 3 babies under 3)!! Host Martha has taken much care in the details of everything in the house. She also promptly replied to our messages about repairs. Easy walk to the beach, even with 3 little ones. It was great that each bedroom has its own en suite bath. Just an awesome house that we would rent again!

Ocean's Song was a wonderful spot for our family gathering! The owners have thought of every detail you need to have a fantastic stay. Such a beautiful home with wonderful gathering spaces and superb amenities. We have stayed at a different home each year for several years of this family gathering. This was the first time that everyone said please let's come back here next year! Thank you to Martha and thoughtful owners for providing such an exceptional home!

Highly Recommend - the best home / overall experience

We stayed at “Ocean Song” for my wedding weekend and it was absolutely perfect. The house is stunning, extremely clean, everything is labeled/includes instructions (which is extremely helpful), and has everything you would need and more. Martha was the best host, quick at responding, extremely accommodating and kind! Ocean song made our wedding weekend that much more memorable. Thank you Martha for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home and make memories we will never forget!

Excellent Home for Family Reunion

A very special home on the Isle of Palms. Clean with every amenity available. Being January, we did not use the pool or outside areas. The elevator was a great help for our group, some who had physical impairments. The porches were very comfortable. The kitchen well stocked with very nice appliances. Living room furniture is very comfortable but hard to get out of being so soft. Loved the details this owner addressed like labels on every light and fan switch, wonderful soap, decor very coastal and attractive. Thank you for sharing this lovely home with us. Would definitely return again. 5 star home all the way.

Southern Charm Experience

The house was exactly as depicted in the photos. Martha was a delight to work with. She accommodated our expectations and beyond. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed and with high end quality. The beds made with top,of the line linens were very comfortable. All switches were labeled and there were a lot of printouts available to answer any questions. A beautiful home away from home with welcoming hospitality.

Wonderful family vacation!

This was our first family vacation with our toddler and we could not have picked a more perfect place. Martha was wonderful to communicate with and the house was breathtaking. Great location (5 min walk to the beach) and well appointed with tons of extras for a fun beach trip. Beach towels, wagons, chairs, beach toys. The house had ping pong, board games, and great outdoor space including the pool and pool deck area. It was also dog friendly, and our 120 lb Rhodesian Ridgeback absolutely loved the home. We were impressed with the selection of dog bowls and items set out. It was truly a fabulous experience, we will be back!

Wonderful beach house

We loved our stay at this home and would definitely book again. Great layout for three families. Indoors and out the house was incredibly well stocked with everything you need to enjoy the home, beach, pool and IOP. Everything was spotless when we arrived. Great communication by host. We loved the elevator for loading/unloading groceries etc. Beds were very comfortable as was the furniture through the house. Lots of thoughtful and practical touches and features throughout made it feel more like a home than a rental. 2 blocks from the park with huge playground and fields. Quick walk to beach. Plenty of parking!!

Fully capable kitchen with every item you’d need. Amazing stay. To top it off Martha is a wizard of a host. She provided soooo much great information and had excellent communication. 5+++ stars.

Perfection personified!

We stayed here for my son’s Citadel graduation and it made for such sweet memories there was no need to leave the house because it had everything and more that we needed for entertainment. The bedding was luxurious and super comfortable. I loved having everyone sleeping on the floor below the main part of the house. Especially for a big group. We spent a lot of time on the many outdoor spaces including the pool and spacious deck area. Totally underestimated the value of having an elevator. Wow was that amazing especially for my 89yr old mom. Martha was always quick to respond but the house is so well organized with notes on everything you could possibly want or need. Walked to the beach was easy peasy! And again everything you need for the beach was provided. AAAA++++

FABULOUS HOME, METICULOUS HOSTS!

Let me begin by saying that i have never met the owner of this property- everything I am telling you is objective and MY PLEASURE! Spotlessly clean, not a single detail has been omitted from the information provided; perfectly appointed kitchen, everything was labeled to make this a stressless and perfectly enjoyable stay. The resources provided by the owner are complete- skip google-ing for restaurants and area attractions she provided all that.. Nothing, I mean ZERO has been omitted. It was a great experience and we will definitely want to rent this VRBO the next time we come to Isle of Palms! We had this hpuse during Christmas week and the owner had set up a Christmas tree and decorartions for our enjoyment. Can't get better than that.

Wonderful Week!

Our family enjoyed a wonderful week at Ocean's Song. When we come to Isle of Palms every summer we tend to eat out almost every night, but with this year being different, we cooked most nights or picked up dinners to go. The kitchen has everything we needed and it is so well organized. There are little notes all over the house explaining things and labeling light switches and such. The house was perfectly clean and welcoming, as was the pool. The walk to the beach was short and easy although we usually used the beach path at block 25. We had lots of rain during the week and didn't want to walk the kids through the mud at 27. The best part of the week was the evenings spent on the fourth floor deck. There is a nice breeze off the ocean and no mosquitoes. We will definitely come back! These owners make Ocean's Song feels like a home away from home!

Impressive Well Appointed & Maintained Home

Prior to our visit the owner provided an abundance of information regarding her home, maps of the area and local businesses. Upon arrival at "Ocean's Song" we were quite pleased with the size, condition and high end appointments. Although our group was small with three couples and one infant, the five bedrooms and six baths provided lots of flexibility. The common areas were large, but quite welcoming. The entire home was tastefully decorated throughout. The kitchen with abundant counter space was supplied with just about everything one could ever need, including under counter ice maker, beverage fridge and even tin foil and zip lock bags. Everything was of high quality and labels were placed all over for guests convenience. There was a wonderful private office space. The pool and outside living area were terrific and yet the home was only a short block away from a beach access. We simply loved the elevator, it was the best !! Lastly, but most importantly the entire home was clean. It made us feel as if we were the first ones to stay there. Truly a lovely home that we enjoyed tremendously.

Perfect Vacation Getaway!

We had two families staying in the home and never had an issue with space or privacy! Ocean's Song is beautiful. From the moment we walked through the front double doors...relaxation kicked in. The interior decorations and craftmanship are 5 star and the living spaces are very accommodating for large groups. All of the amenities are top notch and there are instructions and labels in all of the right places! The screened in porch and the Crow's Nest were favorite hang out spots for the group. Frozen drinks and a warm summer breeze were not in short supply! We had a few questions and the owner responded immediately. One example - the toaster broke the first morning and the owner overnighted a new one so we had for breakfast the next day! Definitely top notch service from an owner that cares about her property and the satisfaction of her guests. There wasn't one appliance that we needed that wasn't stocked in the home! Oh, and did I mention the gifts and other convenience items that were there when we arrived?! Very much appreciated by all! We have family in the area and wouldn't hesitate to make this a go to vacation spot in the future. Thank you Ocean's Song for making our vacation a memorable one!

About the host

Hosted by Martha Sowers

Host profile image
Hello! We are The Pleasants and The Sowers. We purchased Ocean’s Song in July of 2017. We found the previous owners (Linda and Bill Letson) to be very meticulous in everything regarding the management of the property. We are keeping very busy with the high standards that were set and adding a few nice touches that we believe renters will enjoy.
We have been vacationing on Isle of Palms for decades and felt it was a perfect time in our lives to take a leap of faith. We are so glad we did because this house is phenomenal with its convenient location to the Rec. Center, Grocery store, downtown IOP, Wild Dunes, golf courses, fishing, and the beach.
Our hope is that you will get the same enjoyment out of staying at Ocean’s Song as we do. It is truly set-up to be comfortable and spacious for individual families or larger family gatherings. Anytime of year is always a perfect time to put your toes in the sand and to relax…life is always better when spent on the beach with family and friends. That is why we purchased this upscale property.
Thank you for taking time to read this... we look forward to hearing from you.
Warmest regards, William and Shannon Pleasant, Michael and Martha Sowers.
