Property positives: nice lay out with screened in porch close walking distance to beach. Negatives about property: dirty with hair in bathroom, exposed wires in master bedroom and the TV upstairs doesn’t work properly. Things reported on arrival for our 4 night stay: broken door facing with nails exposed, upstairs commode leaks, no cleaning products available. The worst thing reported was no hot water. We had one hot shower the entire 4 days stay. This was reported with no since of urgency from guest services at Vacasa. Instead they stated it was a known issue and to pretty much run the water longer to get the hot water. We ran one shower over an hour one evening and still no hot water. Horrible customer service. We have been coming to IOP for over 20 years and it’s sad that the property and guests are being ignored.

The location cannot be beat. The exterior is a little tired and could use a fresh coat of paint. The interior is welcoming and comfortable.

We had a relaxing, wonderful stay. We were able to see a nice view of the sunrise from the master bedroom that we enjoyed. Also there are so many golf clubs in the area to choose from. One being so close you could walk to. If your not into golf or tennis, which some of us opted not to, we enjoyed a beautiful short walk to a beautiful shopping area and had a great cup off coffee and then rented electric bikes and rode them down the beach. Had the best time. We all enjoyed relaxing at the beach and enjoying the sunshine. This unit was spacious and had plenty of bathrooms. It was cute and comfortable and best of all clean. We would book again.

This is an annual event my friends and I visit every January/February timeframe. Use to rent a hotel room but changed to something more comfortable. We have stayed at Mariner’s Walk 8A on several occasions and loved it. The Vacasa staff is always attentive. Very relaxing, everything needed is included, close to our event and a short walk to the ocean (a huge plus). Hopefully it will be available on next year.

We have small children and being so close to the pool and beach was a big plus for us! Pool is literally feet away and you can see the ocean from the top floor. The condo overall was fine. A little outdated (bedding). Like other reviews the twin beds do make a lot of noise. I ended up putting pillows between mattresses and headboard to help so it wouldn’t bother our twins. King bed was fine! The cleaning on arrival could of been a little better. Cell service is pretty bad too but that’s for all of wild dunes apparently. Overall, we’d stay in this condo again but would hope for better cleaning and maybe beds get fixed.

The comfort of the home and accessibility to beach and close enough to travel to Charleston. Would recommend checking heat/air conditioning -- in November, it would get pretty hot -- and outdoors was in the 40s.

The location is great, but the unit is in need of some updates. The twin beds both loudly creaked/squeeked with every move that our kids made, sometimes waking them up. The washer/dryer stack seems to be just about dead. We couldn't get the dryer to work for more than 10 mins at a time and this was not fixed during our stay. The dryer would turn off by itself and then need about 60-90 mins to cook down before staying again. We ended up at laundromat to dry our clothes before the flight home. Very frustrating to lose hours while on vacation.
Both upstairs bathroom sinks were very slow to drain and the master bath toilet would randomly drain/ full up. These 2 issues were addressed during our stay.
With the price to rent a unit like this, I'd think that it would be kept up a bit more.

It was a decent place with just a few minor flaws...it was very clean, but the furnishings were pretty run down. There is a broken cupboard door broken/off hinges when you open it. The twin bed room vanity/medicine cabinet is broken of in pieces on the top. and the towel bar has torn drywall. Condensation drips from the air conditioning vent. The closet on the screened in porch is full of broken junk. The TV's in the bedrooms don't work. The dryer makes a horribel whining noise. The pool was not maintained very well. OTherwise, a decent place, location and it was very clean.

Nice and cozy but as the time progressed we noticed that it was not very clean. Dirty dishes were a real turnoff. Previous renters hair throughout master bath was disgusting. Lastly having to walk through the flooded swamp to get to the beach was no fun.
None the less we are considering a stay again next year. We are hoping someone will consider making improvements.
Thank you.

I had been to Isle of Palms 20 years ago when I was a kid, and it really has not changed. That isn't a bad thing as that was exactly what I was hoping to bring my family to now. The condo was clean and had all the basics we needed. It is a short distance to the pool and just a bit further to the beach. I love how intimate the condo is, and how friendly the people we met were. Our kids played and had a good time, and the place was a great reminder of my childhood. I was very happy with this unit and Isle of Palms.

We rented two units at Mariner's Watch (Wild Dunes) for a family trip. The property is great! No issues with check-in, great pool and beach area. Very nice resort. The only issue we had is that on Saturday evening we tried to go out to eat and had a 1 hr and 30 min drive to get from Wild Dunes to the IOP connector to get off the island. With few dining options on the resort and heavy traffic to get off the island, we will probably avoid this location during peak beach season.

This condo was the right size for our group. It was a short walk to the beach and the pathway was paved. I loved the screened in porch and the overall community. We will definitely be staying here again.
