Oceanfront, Newly Renovated, Luxury Two-Story Penthouse - Shipwatch 418

There are two master bedrooms (both with new high-end pillow-top king size beds) upstairs - one overlooking the private beach and largest pool in Wild Dunes, and the other overlooking the par 3, 12th hole of the award winning Wild Dunes Links golf course. The third bedroom is on the main floor with two new twin beds. The living room sofa has a pullout queen sleeper if additional sleeping space is needed, and all bedrooms have their own large flat screen smart TVs. Each bedroom also has its own en-suite bathroom that has been newly renovated with marble counter tops and all high-end finishes. The primary master shower has two shower heads with pebble tile flooring, and the other two bathrooms have deep soaking tubs.

No expense was spared in this renovation. Living and dining room has all new designer furniture, 65” smart HDTV, WIFI with high-speed internet and cable TV.

My wife and I normally take a yearly trip to Charleston and stay downtown, but this year we decided to bring the kids and wanted to stay near the beach. Our stay at the condo did not disappoint. It was beautiful, with a nice layout, and the perfect amount of space for what we needed. We loved the ocean views and that it was steps away from the beach. The pictures are accurate and Steve was very helpful and easy to communicate with. We enjoyed our time and will definitely be back in the future.

We loved our stay! Plenty of room for a family of four - could comfortably fit up to 8. The location was beautiful - great views of the ocean, just steps away. Quite beaches stretched for miles. The pool was fantastic too - like new lounge chairs and very quiet.If you’re going to make a grocery store run, do it on your way in Harris Teeter or Target - they’re a bit of a windy, slow drive away.
