Only complaint was that some dirty sheets and blankets were left in the unit from the previous guest. The bathroom sink was slow to drain. I would certainly stay here again!

We've stayed in Port o Call many times. The units are fun, and this unit has a great position fronting the beach. That's where the good ends.

I don't know how to describe the interior other than to say I'm convinced every piece of furniture came from a yard sale. Nothing makes sense, and much of it is not useful.

We all know Port of Call units are small. So, they should we furnished smartly. This unit is not.

None of the furniture is comfortable - inside or out. There's no coffee table to do a puzzle. No desk to do work.

The picture that looks like a small desk in the bedroom is really an end table with a chair. You can't actually use it. There's no room for your legs.

I think I counted 12 end tables. Why?

Electronics are antiques.

Kitchen has too many dishes = no space for groceries. Really, too many. Half of the dishes could be eliminated and you wouldn't miss them.

Appliances are too large for their spaces.

I think this unit was priced as an "A" unit when it should be a "C". It photographs well, but functions bad.

Someone added access into the attic from the loft area. This attic door leaks energy. Hot air is flowing into the unit from the attic. The loft gets overwhelmingly hot. DIY at it's best.

Very nicely decorated with a beautiful view from all rooms. The screened in porch was our favorite. The pool and beach are just a short walk. We enjoyed our stay and will be back.

Upon arrival I noticed the kitchen counters had not been cleaned, something had been spilled on the counter and dried, coffee grounds on the other counter. The dishwasher was full of dishes (clean dishes but I guess It was expected for me to put away). The washing machine had dirty towels and wash cloths. The floor was not clean. But worse of all there was blood (not ours) on the duvet cover for the sleeper sofa; I assume it had not been washed. We’ve stayed in many condos, cabins, houses, and I’ve never had to clean the place or had dirty bedding. Was NOT happy. I did call and let them know, they offered for housekeeping to come and do a cleaning, however I refused because I had already cleaned the kitchen, and taken care of the other things! I found it completely ridiculous that although we had to wait until exactly 4pm to check in that this place was still not clean!! Also this rental really needs some new outdoor furniture.

Nicely decorated with comfortable furniture and bed. Kitchen and bathroom very clean. The view from every room is wonderful. One suggestion would be to replace the tub with walk-in shower to be accessible by elderly. My 96-year-old mother was able to enjoy the sights and sounds of the ocean from the comfort of this beachfront condo. I enjoyed morning and evening walks on the beach, the first sea turtle nest of the season and protected shorebird nesting site not far up the beach. For our purposes, this was a great location.

We grabbed a few days away after having had our vaccines over a month ago! It offers a spectacular view from a cozy screened porch with full oceanfront view. Also the widow’s walk on top of this condo offers an incredible lookout!
The condo though one bedroom is spacious and comfortable! The entire front is oceanfront! We plan to go there again!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at this condo. Very relaxing. Perfect time of year for us to go. Very few people on the dog friendly beach. The condo itself while small, is near perfection. The only negatives I can report is that I ran out of hot water a couple of times and there is only one proper coffee mug. We managed though! LOL

For what we needed, this place was wonderful overall! It was so cute and decorated very nicely! The bed and sofa were very comfortable. The beach view off the screened in porch was wonderful! Also love the crows nest. Didn’t use it much but had beautiful views. There were a couple of things that could’ve been updated such as the porch furniture in the crows nest, the shower head and hot water heater....but overall and for the price, I couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you for allowing us to use your rental!

Second time staying in an oceanfront condo in the F building. This unit was in much better condition than the previous unit we rented. Everything was in working order. But bring your beach chairs as this unit does not have any beach stuff, which our other F building rental did provide.

We were very disappointed by the cleanliness of the condo. With the Pandemic you would expect more time spent on cleaning the condo. We called Monday to register our complaint, we could only get voice mail, no response from anyone. Then when we left Sunday morning we stopped by the office to speak to someone. They took the complaint and said we would get a call from the manager. Still nothing. We can tell that you don’t care one bit about service.
The condo surfaces in kitchen were not clean, stove filthy, trash in bedroom still in can. Food from previous tenant still in cupboard. The bathroom was clean.
Plus the condo is showing signs of needing some work

We have not been back to the Atlantic/Wild Dunes in several years and forgot how pleasant the breeze is off the ocean. Makes a hot summer day easy to enjoy versus the hot stagnant gulf. Whether on the widow's watch or the screened in porch, or on the beach. We loved being able to enjoy the outdoors, especially since we have been pent-up avoiding the plague! You can enjoy the ocean views anyway you want it. The accommodations were perfect for our family of 3 - my son loved seeing dolphins, gators, frogs, crabs, someone caught a baby shark from the beach and we found several large, intact conch shells. So much to do OR do nothing at all while enjoying the beach!

The condo was exactly as advertised with good quality furnishings, a comfortable king bed, plenty of linens for 2-4 people (couch makes bed) and an unbeatable direct ocean view. Three sliding doors onto the screened balcony let us hear the ocean waves in 3-D sound and sit outside even in the rain. We cooked breakfasts and a dinner - all pans and utensils we could need were provided but bring your own ingredients even salt, sugar, pepper, creamer, etc

Thanks for providing a few beach chairs and boogie board. This seems trivial, but I have stayed in similar rentals at Wild Dunes that didn't provide anything like that. Seems kind of an f--- you to a renter who paid thousands of dollars to rent a place, and they don't even provide a plastic bucket for a kid to play on the beach with. So sincere thanks for providing the chairs as well as some games and decks of cards. Great location. Very comfortable.

very good, this property could use a few updated items. Such as enlarging the kitchen area. Enjoy cooking when we visit, and its a one "butt" kitchen. The deck on this unit could use some "refreshing", some of the screens has gaps and the vents in the ceiling edge needs cleaning. The room vents in the ceiling drip water(condensation) when running, some times where the bed is located. Very much enjoyed the view from the porch and upper deck. Thanks again. Dowds

This is our third time staying in Port O Call and while the most expensive, it was the least pleasing. The unit was very clean when we arrived and I read ahead of time that there was a problem with the fitted sheets on the king sized bed. Each and every morning I had to fix the fitted sheet. It would be nice if this was fixed after other renters complained. We always love the 3rd floor units because of the widows walk and the view. I purposely made sure to stay during a full moon to improve our evening views. I will say that it appears two different people decorated this unit. Some furniture and decor were very nice and had a good beach feel, other items were like someone went to different yard sales and just picked stuff to fill their unit (bedroom furniture). Also, simple things like light bulb out in the bathroom. Luckily we barely cooked during our stay because I’m used to a lot of rental units having some basic cooking supplies. It’s nice when previous people who’ve stayed leave some non-perishable items like salt, seasoning, oil, etc. all that was left were coffee filters. Sorry for the negative comments but if I’m staying at a place and spending over $2,500, I expect more attention to detail.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Port O Call. The condo was "compact", yet everything we needed was there. The screened in porch was wonderful, and we loved the fact that the doors from the bedroom and living room led to the porch. It was also terrific that the windows opened. We were able to hear the ocean at night and the air was wonderful. The unit was designed perfectly. The towels were excellent. If there was one, small complaint, it was that the bed linens were not a very high quality, more like hospital sheets. If we come again, we'll bring our own. All in all, in spite of the fact that we had to leave early due to health issues, we had a super time!

We enjoyed our time in this condo. One of the things I do think needs correcting
is that the nice king size bed needs sheets that fit the bed. It was very frustrating
trying to get the sheets to stay in place. Actually they wouldn’t stay in place.��
Perhaps this is an oversized king size bed....if so.....get oversized king sheets
to fit.

Another nice visit at Port 'o Call. This our first time in F303, we'll be back when we can get a discount. My only complaint, as with all rental units on Isle of Palms, is that xfinity tv service is SD and terrible. I would pay extra for HD tv.
