About this property

Oceanfront Penthouse + Golf Course Views | Resort Pools Access | 415 B Shipwatch

A two-story top-floor penthouse on one of the best stretches of beach in Wild Dunes, 415B Shipwatch wraps three bedrooms, three full baths, and three private balconies around some of the widest Atlantic views the resort has to offer. The balconies catch it all — open ocean, the dunes and pool deck below, and the fairways of the Links Golf Course on the back side, where the late-afternoon light tends to linger.

Inside, the main level reads coastal-modern without leaning on cliché — white shaker cabinets, stainless appliances, and granite counters in the kitchen, light wood floors, and a showstopper of a dining table: a custom blue resin piece that looks like a cross-section of breaking ocean waves, seating six and stealing every dinner photo someone takes here. The living room opens directly to the oceanfront balcony, with comfortable seating arranged to keep the view as the centerpiece. A queen ensuite tucks off this level for a quieter retreat.

A staircase leads up to the second floor of the penthouse, where the primary suite faces the Atlantic — wake up to the view, fall asleep to the surf — with the distinctive Shipwatch bath layout: a large double vanity room just off the bedroom and a separate shower room adjacent. A second king bedroom with its own ensuite shares the upper level. Heavy curtains throughout keep late mornings late if the tide isn't pulling you out early. Flat-screen TVs in every bedroom.

Beyond the front door, Shipwatch delivers on the resort side: an oceanfront saltwater pool ringed in travertine tile and loungers, a separate baby pool, and a substantial on-site playground built for kids who need to burn off the post-beach energy (pool pass required May through September, included with stay). The wider Wild Dunes resort surrounds it all — two Tom Fazio-designed golf courses (book directly with the resort), a four-season climate, and the kind of geography that works for nearly any group: family beach week, golf trip, or girls' weekend.

When the beach isn't calling, downtown Charleston sits about 20 minutes away — historic streets, culinary walking tours, the South Carolina Aquarium, and museums for the rare rainy day. Closer in, the Isle of Palms marina, local seafood spots, and the Sullivan's Island lighthouse are all within an easy drive, and The Windjammer — a longstanding local music venue — sits just outside the resort gates.

Pack light. There's a centrally located washer and dryer, a beach gear credit for longer stays, and three balconies waiting for whoever claims them first.

Additional Amenities Include:
• High-speed internet with Wi-Fi.
• Washer and dryer.
• Linens and bath towels are provided, as well as starter supplies including soap, shampoo, and paper products.

Just off the coast of Historic Charleston, Isle of Palms offers a stunning six-mile stretch of white, sandy beaches. Spend the day chartering a boat and paddleboarding in the Atlantic, or explore the extensive wildlife within the area's marshes and creeks. Isle of Palms is also the perfect place to decompress, with renowned spas, charming restaurants, and sweeping golf courses. All this and more await you in the jewel of South Carolina's Lowcountry.

Needs a good clean and some updating

The view and the three balconies are superb. Everything else was less than perfect to say the least. The place was very dirty, ended up buying our own cleaning supplies to clean up the place so we felt comfortable walking around and hanging out inside. The air conditioning was ROUGH and did not work well at all, hot and sticky throughout. The WiFi was not high speed and very difficult for one of us to do minimal work from the condo. Lots of work took place on the grounds while we were there including landscaping and bug treating and power washing completely over spraying all over our cars (including hoses being draped over our car at one point). The furniture was dated and uncomfortable as were the beds. A couple extra bucks to keep the place clean and update some furnishings would go a long way to make people actually comfortable to stay there.

Beautiful family getaway!

What a great property! The photos were spot-on but probably don't do it justice. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything we needed, including a coffee pot and Keurig (such a nice surprise!) and plenty of plates, bowls, glasses, coffee mugs, etc. The view is incredible, and each bedroom has its own bathroom, which is a huge plus! The location was spectacular...gorgeous, well-kept community! We used the beach chair service, and it was PERFECT for us...huge help! It wasn't warm enough during our stay to use the pool, but we still sat beside it and enjoyed the view. There was plenty of parking during our stay, plenty of restaurants close by and plenty of beach area. This is a great place to stay with a family, and we will definitely want to visit again!

Everything was as shown in picture and description was point on. Only a couple of little things. Ice maker took 2 days to fill bucket, would like to see ice trays also. There is three balconies, but only one had a table. It would be awesome for little tables on other balconies. That is the only downsides. Property, condo, pool, parking and beach where awesome!!!!

Great well appointed condo

This is a very nice condo. We loved that the living and dining rooms had adequate seating . Pleasantly surprised at how clean everything was on arrival!!! Well organized kitchen with great supply of things you need to function and cook for a week. We enjoyed being disconnected but beware this area in general has poor cell/internet service(other people at the pool were commenting as well). The queen mattress needs replacing. Really a great well maintained care ndo. We will be back.

Beautiful views in all directions.

Property is located at the East end of the Isle of Palms in a private resort area, right on the Atlantic Ocean. For an older complex, very well maintained. Easy access th Charleston but traffic can be an issue. If eating out, plan ahead. Reservations are a must and parking can be tricky.

Very Nice Facility and Location

Our condo was as described. The unit was clean and very nicely equipped. The kitchen is well appointed with very nice pots, pans, silverware, plates, glasses, and cups. All appliances worked. The ocean view was gorgeous and downtown Charleston is approximately 30 minutes away. Many excellent restaurants are within 20 minutes of the complex. A Harris Teeter grocery is 10 minutes from Shipwatch. 415B had comfortable beds and plenty of seating for 6 people on the Oceanside deck and in the living area. The dinning table seats 6 with additional room, with seats, at the bar between the kitchen and dinning area. There is a walk of about 100 yards to the beach. A reef or large sandbar maybe a 1/3 mile off the beach restricts the wave size along the shore. Also, the shore drops quickly so younger children must be closely monitored and should wear life saving equipment. However, I did not notice an undertow or current of any strength. The complex has a very nice sized adult pool and kiddie pool if the ocean is not to your liking. Shipwatch is an excellent vacation spot.

Perfect Ocean views

You cant beat the view of the ocean. A short walk to the beach. The furnishing of the property need to be updated. With three bedroom, having a dining table that seat 4 is not ideal. The property is stuck in the 90s with dark leatherette club chairs and other inexpensive items. I d say spend $1K and the updates would make this place a perfect 5. The Wifi was super slow and we were not able to do Zoom or upload video for work or school. Pool was lovely.

Great condo with amazing ocean views

Unit 415B in Shipwatch was everything we expected! The rental agency, Beachside Vacations was excellent.... They made our rental process so easy and efficient. Our unit was ready when we arrived at the airport - which was a nice feeling, considering we have a toddler!! My first impression of the unit was "it's exactly like the description & pictures!" The unit is VERY big, 3 large bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, good size living room and dining area, great kitchen. Tons of closet space, washer & dryer... and simply the BEST ocean views from both the living room balcony and the master bedroom balcony. You can also watch the sunsets from the upstairs 2nd bedroom balcony. We found the unit to be fairly clean. The agency does a good job at keeping it clean... however, there is definitely obvious wear and tear. I think that for the price you pay, the unit should be fixed up better, on a regular basis. We LOVED the Shipwatch complex - it has a huge, quiet, secluded beach. Plus a small playground for little ones, great pools (including a kiddie pool) and is off the beaten path, yet easy to get to everything else in the resort. The fitness centers were great! My husband & I used our SportsCard and got a 5 day pass. The facilities have a good range of weight machines, good selection of cardio machines and free weights. The Wild Dunes property is great -- awesome location, well kept facilities & tons to do. We will definitely return and will rent from Beachside Vacations, again.
