Some beach houses make you work for the beach. This one doesn't. There's no elevator to wait on and no building to walk around — the porch at 11B Mariners Walk faces the ocean, and the sand picks up a few steps past it. That changes how a day goes. Swim in the morning, drift back for lunch, head out again at four, and the whole time a cold drink or a quick snack is only just inside the door. The porch earns its keep the rest of the time too. It's large and private, comfortable enough for a book and a cup of coffee at eight in the morning, and it's where everyone naturally collects once the towels come off the line. Indoors, the villa carries the easy look of a classic Lowcountry beach home. Shiplap walls and warm floors keep the rooms bright and open, and the furniture is chosen for people who come in damp and stay a while. The kitchen is the working heart of it, with coastal blue island cabinetry, pendant lights strung over the bar, and enough room to pull off a full seafood dinner or a rushed round of sandwiches between beach runs. Upstairs is the quiet part of the house. The primary bedroom is generous, with a king bed and windows that take in the ocean on one side and the pool complex on the other. Downstairs, a sleeper sofa in the living area gives the rest of the group somewhere comfortable to land. The practical things are handled as well: high-speed Wi-Fi, a full-size washer and dryer, and linens, bath towels, and starter supplies including soap, shampoo, and paper goods waiting when you walk in. Step out and Wild Dunes gives you plenty to do without touching the car. Guests have access to the community pool complex, and the Links Course sits less than half a mile up the road, with a restaurant in the pro shop that's worth the walk on its own. Sand & Sea Spa and a cluster of resort dining spots are an easy stroll or a short pedal away, and the bike paths threading through Wild Dunes and out along Isle of Palms are still the best way to see the island. When you want more than the island, the rest of the Lowcountry is close. Sullivan's Island and Fort Moultrie are about fifteen minutes down the road, the shrimp boats at Shem Creek and the USS Yorktown at Patriots Point a little beyond that, and historic Charleston roughly half an hour out. Most days, though, the porch wins. AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more.
