501 Summer House is well-appointed: great internet signal and the biggest TV we've ever seen in the living area (as well as TVs in bedrooms). The sofa and living area chairs were not super comfortable, but it was nice to have ample seating for everyone in our family. The condo was well maintained and Summer House (as a complex) is looking great too: fast elevator, great beach, etc. We would strongly recommend and are likely to return.

Reviewer Comments:
501 Summer House is a luxurious rental with exemplary views of the ocean. You can see both ends of the island with gorgeous views of the ocean from the many windows and the balcony. You can see the beautiful sunrise from the balcony. Check in at Island Realty is a breeze and Summer House has luggage carts to make moving in easy.The condo is tastefully furnished and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need to cook. The living room has comfortable furniture and there are 2 eating areas. Two bedrooms have sliding doors to the balcony, but one does not. This is good because you would not want a young child to be able to open the door to the balcony from his bedroom.** The only caveat is that you can not sit on the beach all day. Around high tide there is no beach. This is about 3 hours. The water comes to the dunes, and you aren't supposed to sit on the dunes because they protect from erosion. This is the case for all the rentals at this end of the island.However, the condo does have a nice pool. Also there is a clean restroom in the pool area.

The condo has a beautiful view of the ocean. The inside is spacious with a bathroom for each bedroom and a HUGE tv in the main room. We’re football fans and enjoyed watching the games. The hotel down the street has lots of shopping and restaurants. We didn’t realize this until our last day. It’s like a whole little city, definitely check it out! Would stay here again!

Reviewer Comments:
Our family loved this condo. The views from the windows and balcony were spectacular. If you wake up early, you can see the sun rise from the balcony. In fact, you can lounge in bed and see the sunrise from one of the three sliding glass doors. The bedroom with 2 beds does not have a door to the balcony, which makes it good for kids because you probably don't want small kids to be able to go on the balcony without your knowledge.Another great feature is that there are two clean restrooms off the Summer House pool. So if you are enjoying a beach day, you can use the restroom without going back to your condo. You are given a code to the pool gate.Check in with Island Realty is easy as it is in a convenient location you pass when driving into Wild Dunes. Moving into the condo is also easy as there are luggage carts by the elevator.The condo itself is tastefully decorated with comfortable seating in the living room. We appreciated the leather seating as it is comfortable and cleaner than cloth seating. The beds were comfortable and the sheets and towels were high quality.The kitchen is large and there is plenty of room for a couple of people to cook. While we were on vacation, we enjoyed breakfast at Acme Cantina; don't leave without trying their shrimp and grits! The SC Aquarium in Charleston was just wonderful.

Easy check-in, easy keypad entry, wi-fi worked great. The condo was very well appointed and clean. The highlight was the spectacular view from the balcony. The kitchen dishware, glasses, utensils and cooking pots and pans were clean as well as the refrigerator. Everything worked - no malfunctions. Move-in was a bit challenging - the custodian had to get us a cart from the other unit and it was wobbly and unstable. I have never experienced a comfortable bed in any of the condos we have rented from Island Realty over the years, including this one. Access to the beach and to the swimming pool is great. Despite our stay being over the Labor Day weekend, the beaches were not crowded and were beautiful. Summerhouse overall is pleasant and we would stay there again.
