About this property

Sullivan's Island Oceanfront Home with Pool

This is a beautiful oceanfront home with great beach views (on Sullivan's Island oceanfront doesn't always mean you can actually see the ocean due to trees!). We have easy beach access (about 100 yards to the water) and are located on a swimmable part of the beach. Or, you can stay home and swim in our new pool! We are also walking distance to town with lots of fantastic restaurants and bars. Please visit https://sullivansisland.sc.gov/news for the most recent Sullivan's Island news and restrictions.

We have a spacious, open gourmet kitchen with ocean views and tons of counter and cabinet space. The dining room, also with ocean views, has a huge table that easily seats 12. It's a perfect set up for groups or families.

There are large main floor and ground floor living rooms, both with flat screen TVs and DVD players. There is a playroom for kids and foosball for the older kids and adults.

Our screened porch off the living room has ocean views and is perfect for eating al fresco or lounging around. There is also a private, screened porch off the primary bedroom with ocean views and two chaise lounges. You'll love relaxing on the porches, feeling the ocean breeze and watching the ships pass into Charleston Harbor.

Our beautiful pool is 14' x 30'. The outdoor pool decks have lounge chairs, a dining set and picnic tables. There's plenty of space and seating for a lot of fun in the sun!

We have six bedrooms: three kings, two queens and one with two twins. There are three bedrooms on the main floor, all with flat screen LED TVs, and three bedrooms on the ground floor. We have five bathrooms. The three kings have ensuite bathrooms. One queen has its own bathroom nextdoor that also serves as the main floor guest bath. The ground floor queens and twin room share a bathrooms. In addition, we have an outdoor shower that is great to use after the beach or anytime.

We have a front-load washer and dryer and a stainless steel grill to use during your stay. There's plenty of parking at the house.

This amazing home was previously owned by a former SC governor.

Please take a look at all of our pictures to see everything the house has to offer!

60th Anniversary Family Gathering

The property was a spectacular venue for a gathering of our family to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary. The house provided a wonderful space for our group of 11, which included our daughters, sons-in-law, and grandchildren, and the location was perfect. In addition, the property manager was very helpful and responsive.

Perfect Rental

The house is beautiful. So well equipped it was a treat to open a drawer! The kitchen is beyond great. We had a chef one night come to prepare for a dinner party and she gave it 5. The beds are really comfortable and watching the tankers come into Charleston harbor was great entertainment. The pool is beautiful even in the winter. I highly recommend this wonderful rental!

Privacy on the beach

8 family members 60+ enjoyed 5 nights at this nice home. Cooked in 2 nights; the kitchen is well stocked (although there were no steak knives and we only had 2 dish towels). Walked to local restaurants the other nights (nice variety of options). Did some biking around the island and enjoyed long walks on the beach. Family did wish there was an outside tv to watch some football, but in all everyone had a great time!

Family vacation 2024

This home was perfect for our family of 7 adults and 2 children. It was well stocked with every possible convenience. The pool was well used especially by our grandchildren. Sullivan’s Island beach was just lovely and almost deserted during weekdays. Lisa was very responsive to any questions and was a pleasure to meet. Highly recommended vacation home.

Better than the photos!

What a wonderful stay we had at Ship Watch. Property manager, Lisa, was an absolute dream to work with. We had a group of very picky 50 something well traveled women and EVERYONE was thrilled with every aspect of the house- not to mention the fabulous location. The pool was divine and we will definitely be back- hopefully in the summer! ( or late Soring which feels like Summer in Charleston). If you have young kids this place would be awesome as there is a playroom and all sorts of fun floats and wagons in the pool closet. Run- Don’t walk to book this incredible home!

New Years Family Gathering.

Better than we could have ever expected. We’ve rented on Sullivans and IOP several dozen times over 20 years and this is by far the best property and best experience of all! Location is the absolute best! Beds and linens were awesome and comfortable! Coming back soon for sure !

Family Weekend

We were in town with our 3 grown children and their wives/partners for a family wedding at Boone Plantation. This was the perfect location and home for us. House was clean and perfectly appointed. Some never left Sullivans Island but was an easy Uber ride for those who wanted to venture to Charleston. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Easter Weekend

This property is absolutely impeccable! It is in a convenient location, but yet sits back off the road and is very private. The backyard and pool area and view of the beach and ocean are amazing. We loved our morning walks on the beach and it’s so nice to see, how well the home is. The floorplan and decor were also impeccable. Highly recommend this home to everybody. The owners were lovely to deal with and we will definitely be running this home again. We made a memorable Easter weekend as a family!

Fabulous Home.

Fabulous home and location. Wonderful experience. Heated pool. 100 yards from the beach. We walked to really good restaurants each day for dinner- all seven days. Really well maintained. Great beds. You can tell the owners love their home and sharing their home.

Great stay! Host was very attentive

Hosted family for a long weekend celebration. House is in a great location, very clean, comfortable and probably the most well-stocked kitchen I've ever rented. Lisa (hostess) was extremely attentive and accommodating. We didn't have any issues but she checked-in several times. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great (mid-Feb) and we didn't use the pool but it's gorgeous. Everyone was happy with bedrooms and commented that the showers had great water pressure.

A perfect spot!

Our group of 6 stayed here for a long weekend and it was PERFECT! Tons of space, the most well stocked kitchen, and the combo of being beachfront with the pool meant everyone could get sun and relax on their own time and in their own way. Lisa communicated so we'll with us ahead of our stay, we didn't need anything while there. The house is very modern and updated with every amenity you could possibly want. We also adores Sullivan's Island and it's laid back vibe, with the ability to Uber downtown for more of a going out feel. I couldn't recommend this place more!

Perfect House, Perfect Place

If you're not familiar with the low country, which we weren't, it's amazing! Flat, wide beaches. Very un-crowded, peaceful water (felt like a lake some days), and the ships leaving the port are incredible to watch! (Hence the property's apt name, Shipwatch!) Get the app that tells you where they are from and where they're going! The house was the perfect amount of cozy and spacious, with plenty of room for all 12 of us (8 adults 4 kids), plus having local family over for dinner or to hang at the pool. The beach is essentially at your door, and the views from the property are serene. Any minor issues or questions we had were addressed immediately by the host. Apparently it is very rare to find vacation rentals on Sullivan's Island, so enjoy it while they still allow it, I suppose!

Sullivan island home

Great home with a walk out to the beach which we loved! We really enjoyed the pool even in November. The rooms were great and everyone had their own bathroom. The kitchen was spacious for the whole family. Would love to do it again.
