About this property

5 MINS walk to Beach - the vacation house of "Life of Sun, Sand & Sea"

A few minutes' walk to the beach, this entire 2700 square feet house is spacious and perfect for families and friends. Enjoy a 12% discount for stays of 7 days or more, and a monthly discount of 20%. Recently, Isle of Palms (IOP) has added a beautiful boardwalk to the beach, enhancing convenience for your access to the beach. Welcome to 'Life of Sun, Sand & Sea', and enjoy your stay!

The space:
From the moment you enter the driveway, shaded by oak and palm trees, you'll realize you've arrived at a truly special place. This 2,700 square foot low country style home, meticulously designed by the owner, has recently undergone a renovation. Situated just 1.5 blocks from the beach and a mile from IOP's most popular restaurants, bars, parks, and more, it offers a perfect blend of location and luxury.

The spacious kitchen is newly renovated, featuring granite countertops, cabinets, stove top, and a porcelain tile floor. The house has four large bedrooms, with the master bedroom featuring a king bed and a spacious master bathroom, located on the first floor. The second floor accommodates three additional bedrooms, named the Green Room (or Viking room), Yellow Room, and Blue Room. The luxurious living room is thoughtfully furnished with a couch, love seat, sofa chair, a 75" TV, and a diverse collection of books for your reading pleasure.

Above all, a beautiful 320 square foot screened porch awaits, complete with ample patio furniture, a couch, chairs, a table, and a 55” TV for family gatherings. Beyond the screen porch, or through the sliding doors from the living room and master bedroom, you'll discover an impressive 525 square foot outer deck. This outdoor oasis features patio furniture, benches, and chairs—perfect for sunbathing or hosting a BBQ to savor your favorite foods.

Guest access:
The entire house is yours for a wonderful vacation stay. Please note that two closets, one in the master bathroom and one next to the front door in the living room, are locked and not accessible. However, each bedroom still provides ample available closet

For your convenience, there are two parking bays under the house, along with additional parking areas off the driveway for two cars and plenty of space in the driveway itself. The fenced-in backyard is easily accessible.

Wi-Fi is available throughout the house. As part of our complimentary offerings, guests have access to 2 streaming programs: the Spectrum TV with 150 channels and Netflix, available on TVs in the living room, master bedroom, and screened porch.

On the outer deck, you'll find a gas grill for outdoor cooking. Additionally, there is a half-enclosed outdoor shower at the lower level, perfect for a quick rinse after returning from the beach.

Other things to note:
We typically accept bookings for a minimum of 4-5 nights. However, we understand that your needs may vary, and we're open to offering 2-3 night stays on occasion. Please reach out to me directly, and I'll make a special adjustment based on availability.

We kindly ask that you treat the house with respect. Please refrain from moving furniture unless it is necessary for safety reasons. There are two garbage cans and one recycling container available under the house. We have a service that will roll the cans to the road and place them back under the house when emptied. The green cans are picked up on Tuesday and Friday mornings during the summer months, while the blue recycling bin is collected every two weeks. Guests are requested to dispose of trash regularly in these containers during their stay and before departure.

Additionally, we request no parking on the grass to prevent damage to the underground water drainage pipes in this area.

IOP House of Sun Sand and Sea
We had an amazing time! The house location was perfect...close to beach and other family staying for a wedding. We enjoyed the spacious living areas, the accommodating bedrooms and the great screened in porch. Doug was available when I texted him and the house was well equipped. Would stay here again! Thanks Doug!!

Fun, Comfort and Convenience
We stayed for 10 days at Sun, Sand and Sea for vacation, visiting family and to attend my niece's wedding in Charleston. The house is perfectly set up for family, with great space and the ability to have everyone together, as well as have separate spaces. It is extremely well outfitted and supplied - great kitchen and super beach equipment. Doug is a VERY responsive and accommodating host. While getting in and out of Charleston was quick and easy, the attraction and ready access of IOP's beach was the best.

Would absolutely stay again!
Doug thinks of everything! Never have I booked a VRBO that baby proofed the house for me. The ktichen, bathrooms, and home basics are well stocked which made this rental even better. The location is a perfect, easy walk to what is now our favorite Atlantic beach (and we have hit quite a few from NC to the Keys). Beds are comfortable and the home is very clean. Our toddler loves thr Christmas decor! High praises to this vacation home rental. If we are back in the area, we will be seeking Doug's property again. Our favorite VRBO to date!
