5 BR Home with Stunning Ocean Views 8 31st Ave

My family has rented 15 properties through VRBO in Florida, Rhode Island, Vermont, California, South Carolina, Washington, Mexico and the Caribbean. I can say without reservation that while we've never had a bad VRBO experience, this was our best experience. The home is exceptional: A great location a block from a wonderful beach; a professionally decorated and yet comfortable home, and an impecable presentation of spotless maintenance. The pictures on VRBO really do not do it justice. Every detail is done well, and the location was perfect for a beach vacation without being directly on the beach. The house is also great for an extended family, as there are 3 bedrooms upstairs and 2 downstairs. We have 3 children and nanny, and never felt crowded in the least.

Beyond the physical attributes of the house, Robert made the entire experience fantastic. He is a dilligent and prompt communicator, and always made himself available for any question we had before, during and after our stay. Our return trip was disrupted by huricane Irene. Without hestiation Robert immediately offered to extend our stay, thus taking a potentially horrible situation and making it an extended vacation. Robert was also very thoughtful in his suggestions for dining, entertainment, local culture, and sporting events. It was as though we had a concierge.

My entire family fell in love with the Isle of Palms/Charleston area, and we will no doubt be back, and no doubt stay at 8 31st Avenue. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

My family and I (nine of us) stayed on this property when we visited Charleston for a family reunion and wedding. It exceeded our expectations! This newly renovated home was beautiful, clean, well decorated and completely updated (with stainless steel appliances, crown molding throughout the home, under mount sinks, and a multiple of little appointments that made a big difference). The elevator made the movement of shopping bags and luggage to/from the kitchen & bedrooms a breeze. The beds were extremely comfortable and the outdoor decks were amazing (my favorite being the roof deck, where sat on a pristine white high table-top table and sipped coffee and champagne while we soaked-in the serene ocean view).

Another great feature is that this property is very close to the beach (a short walking distance) but off the main road (Palm Blvd) by a block. There was no street noise and we didn't have to deal with pulling in and out of the driveway onto Palm Blvd, which is an extremely busy road.

The final great aspect of this home is that the owner was so kind and generous. He sent us contacts to rent beach chairs, gave us dining recommendations and made himself very available to discuss the property and address questions throughout the rental process. When my cousin called to tell me that her rental property was in foreclosure and it did not look at all like the photos online, I KNEW I didn't have to worry that the same would happen to us. I totally trusted Robert!

The only downfall is that this property does not have a pool. We found the ocean was great, though, and we ended up not missing the pool at all.

Thanks again, Robert! You’re home is AMAZING!!
