About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Welcome to Shipwatch 418! We recently completed a full renovation of our two-story, oceanfront, Shipwatch penthouse in Wild Dunes and are happy to welcome guests looking for a serene getaway!
Directly on the beach and offering truly spectacular views from 2 oceanfront balconies, this 1600+ sqft penthouse is a two-story, open concept unit on the top floor and has the largest floor plan in Shipwatch.
The home has three beautifully decorated bedrooms and three spa-like baths. There are two master bedrooms (both with new high-end pillow-top king size beds) upstairs - one overlooking the private beach and largest pool in Wild Dunes, and the other overlooking the par 3, 12th hole of the award winning Wild Dunes Links golf course. The third bedroom is on the main floor with two new twin beds. The living room sofa has a pullout queen sleeper if additional sleeping space is needed, and all bedrooms have their own large flat screen smart TVs. Each bedroom also has its own en-suite bathroom that has been newly renovated with marble counter tops and all high-end finishes. The primary master shower has two shower heads with pebble tile flooring, and the other two bathrooms have deep soaking tubs.
No expense was spared in this renovation. Living and dining room has all new designer furniture, 65” smart HDTV, WIFI with high-speed internet and cable TV. The fully stocked kitchen is brand new with marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, beverage fridge and new high-end counter appliances (blender, coffee maker, etc.). The home also has a brand new full-size washer and dryer in the unit on the second floor.

We loved our stay! Plenty of room for a family of four - could comfortably fit up to 8. The location was beautiful - great views of the ocean, just steps away. Quite beaches stretched for miles. The pool was fantastic too - like new lounge chairs and very quiet.If you’re going to make a grocery store run, do it on your way in Harris Teeter or Target - they’re a bit of a windy, slow drive away.
Steve’s spot is awesome. Great location. The space is well appointed, clean and comfortable. Steve is extremely responsive and flexible. Our second stay- there will be a third.
We enjoyed our week vacation. The condo has beautiful views, everything you need, comfortable beds, and great appliances. Truly a beautifully decorated residence.
Amazing location on a gorgeous and serene beach. The Wild Dunes community was so friendly and welcoming. We had so much fun wave jumping, shell searching, and biking all over the resort. The condo was very clean, the beds comfortable, and views breathtaking. We can’t wait to come back!
Beautiful property, is as described. Very Nice amenities. Host was great to work with an easy to contact. The area was extremely crowded because of the Fourth of July week, but the beach was beautiful.
We enjoyed our stay at this property. Everything was clean and for the most part well appointed. The only thing we felt was lacking was additional towels and the kitchen did not have any poolsafe drinkware. The condo was quiet and looked over the beautiful pool area and expansive beach. We would stay here again.
This was a well appointed property that was up to date, clean, and had everything we could ask for in a beach condo property for our family vacation. The property manager/owner was very responsive. We had a few questions and reached out the first day of arrival and they responded almost immediately each time. I’d highly recommend this property for a family stay and will be staying here again on our next visit to IOP/Wild Dunes.
Lovely property. Clean fresh and a great location. The bar area fabulous. These Kadence’s usually bring their own wine glasses as they are particular about th3 feel in their hands. The bar wear was perfect never seen nicer glasses for both red and white wine. Also shot glasses @nd champagne . Kleenex in bathrooms would hav3 been nice
Nicely renovated with upscale finishes
Beautiful View of Beach
Outdoor furniture on the living level was
Filthy with black dirt - I spent 20
Minutes cleaning it so we could sit outside
Ice maker in fridge did not work at first - had a frozen block and ice that was blocking cubes for being dispensed - I cleaned it out but it kept freezing up - not really enough nice to host family thanksgiving dinner
Linens were very nice
Fans were hard to figure out how to work - instructions would have been nice
Living room couch was cream cloth and stained in places - not kid friendly
Wine fridge was a nice feature
Heat - AC easy to work and very functional
3 or our 4 kids stayed in other units so nice to be in the same complex
Very please grounds and area walking trails
Would rent again - a separate ice maker is needed
Appreciate the Keurig coffee maker and ample toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags and dishwashing products

Beautiful place—But…
The beds were comfortable. The place was nicely decorated and kitchen was fully stocked. The views of the ocean were breathtaking! But our host, Steve could’ve been more attentive and helpful. We had issues with trying to watch the main channels live on their TV (ABC,NBC and CBS. We wanted to watch the Chiefs game on Sunday and spent hours trying to figure out how to get those channels to work “live”. I would email him because that was the only way to get a hold of the guy and he would take sometimes an hour or so to get back with me. When I asked him to call me he was very short and not very helpful. He said because it was a weekend it may take longer to get the issue fixed. Really? We were paying to stay there through the weekend. Also the cleaning could have been better. The shower curtain in first floor bathroom was dirty (or mildewed) and the floors in general were a bit sticky. Also the garbage disposal was filthy and the kitchen smelled bad until we cleaned it out with paper towels.
This is our third stay here and we love it just as much as the first time!! The location, the beds, the layout! We love it all!! We will be back again!!!
This property had absolutely everything we needed for a week's stay with our family, ages 5-14. The property is well maintained, and beautifully decorated/ stocked. Location was perfect with easy access to the beach and well sized pool. I would definitely recommend.
