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

Welcome to Shipwatch 418! We recently completed a full renovation of our two-story, oceanfront, Shipwatch penthouse in Wild Dunes and are happy to welcome guests looking for a serene getaway!

Directly on the beach and offering truly spectacular views from 2 oceanfront balconies, this 1600+ sqft penthouse is a two-story, open concept unit on the top floor and has the largest floor plan in Shipwatch.

The home has three beautifully decorated bedrooms and three spa-like baths. 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.
The fully stocked kitchen is brand new with marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, beverage fridge and new high-end counter appliances (blender, coffee maker, etc.). The home also has a brand new full-size washer and dryer in the unit on the second floor.

Nicely renovated with upscale finishes Beautiful View of Beach Outdoor furniture on the living level was Filthy with black dirt - I spent 20 Minutes cleaning it so we could sit outside Ice maker in fridge did not work at first - had a frozen block and ice that was blocking cubes for being dispensed - I cleaned it out but it kept freezing up - not really enough nice to host family thanksgiving dinner Linens were very nice Fans were hard to figure out how to work - instructions would have been nice Living room couch was cream cloth and stained in places - not kid friendly Wine fridge was a nice feature Heat - AC easy to work and very functional 3 or our 4 kids stayed in other units so nice to be in the same complex Very please grounds and area walking trails Would rent again - a separate ice maker is needed Appreciate the Keurig coffee maker and ample toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags and dishwashing products

Perfect Family Beach Condo

This was a well appointed property that was up to date, clean, and had everything we could ask for in a beach condo property for our family vacation. The property manager/owner was very responsive. We had a few questions and reached out the first day of arrival and they responded almost immediately each time. I’d highly recommend this property for a family stay and will be staying here again on our next visit to IOP/Wild Dunes.

Beautiful place—But…

The beds were comfortable. The place was nicely decorated and kitchen was fully stocked. The views of the ocean were breathtaking! But our host, Steve could’ve been more attentive and helpful. We had issues with trying to watch the main channels live on their TV (ABC,NBC and CBS. We wanted to watch the Chiefs game on Sunday and spent hours trying to figure out how to get those channels to work “live”. I would email him because that was the only way to get a hold of the guy and he would take sometimes an hour or so to get back with me. When I asked him to call me he was very short and not very helpful. He said because it was a weekend it may take longer to get the issue fixed. Really? We were paying to stay there through the weekend. Also the cleaning could have been better. The shower curtain in first floor bathroom was dirty (or mildewed) and the floors in general were a bit sticky. Also the garbage disposal was filthy and the kitchen smelled bad until we cleaned it out with paper towels.

Beautiful getaway

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Everything was clean and for the most part well appointed. The only thing we felt was lacking was additional towels and the kitchen did not have any poolsafe drinkware. The condo was quiet and looked over the beautiful pool area and expansive beach. We would stay here again.

Amazing location on a gorgeous and serene beach. The Wild Dunes community was so friendly and welcoming. We had so much fun wave jumping, shell searching, and biking all over the resort. The condo was very clean, the beds comfortable, and views breathtaking. We can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful property

The condo was beautiful and kept very clean! Very nice finishes and details throughout. The balconies and views were wonderful as well! Love the proximity to the pool and beach- easy for our family of 6. The owner was responsive. Our only complaint (nothing to do with the owner or unit) was there was a very loud group staying next door that were up late and woke my sleeping children. The walls may be a bit thin. Overall highly recommend! We had a great stay at this gorgeous location.
