The apartment was ok for the most part. The biggest issues were the beds. They were all soooooo uncomfortable!!! It literally felt like we were all sleeping on bricks. Dishes that were in the cabinets were mostly dirty but washed before we used them. The lights on the wall in the kitchen flickered any time they were on. The people upstairs were SO LOUD!!!!! They stomped any time they were there. You could hear everything!!! There was NO WATER PRESSURE! looks like the shower head is cracked so it constantly sprayed you in the face. The house was clean, tidy & definitely plenty of extra pillows & blankets. Overall it was good- not great. We will definitely look for a different place to stay next time we visit in a couple of months.

We very much enjoyed the stay and the location was amazing. The linens are very clean and nice towels. Well stocked kitchen.
The con is the noise from above, seemingly no insulation between the top floor and the bottom floor. So if there are kids staying on top it is quite loud.
However, the company is very responsive and helpful.

Our stay here was great. Well stocked kitchen, beds were good and the living space was homey and comfortable. The updates made here really made the place feel nice. We also loved the one-street walk to the beach as well as a 20 min drive into downtown Charleston. We were in the bottom unit of this 2 unit place, and we were not terribly bothered by anyone above us. But, if you're easily annoyed with others' normal living noise, just know that you will hear people above you. We loved being able to have a place like this and bring our small, older dog. He really grew to love the VERY dog friendly beach. Overall, we had a great time on our spring break trip this year!

Overall, great experience but:

1. Since we were a long term renter (9 days), disappointed that we were not left paper towels/toilet paper/trash bags) for the entire trip, so we had to go out and buy. I called and was told that's what y'all do, but for pure customer service purposes (and we have rented long term before with no similar issue), I would recommend you provide enough to the length of stay;

2. I sent an email in the beginning of the stay asking a question about the TV/cable, did not get a response, had to call a few days later;

3. The cable had 4 channels, that's it--maybe helpful for the future if a location does not have basic cable channels (CNN/ESPN) to list on the description.

Thank you for sharing your recommendations. We do set up each property with an initial starter of these items, but do ask that each individual refresh as they need through their stay. However, we have no problem handing off an extra roll of toilet paper or bottle of soap if a guest is short during their stay. We do carry some extras at the front office, that can be made available upon request. Please do not hesitate to reach out in the future. As you can imagine, some amenities have been more limited due to COVID. Thank you for your notice about the cable package, we will add this to our web description.

This downstairs apartment is in an excellent neighborhood. It is just two blocks from the beach and is located in a lovely community of homes on quiet streets. Great for walking dogs. The apartment is clean and well-maintained. It is very small and it should not house more than 4 people. The living room furniture is not very comfortable because it has a sofa bed which is not necessary. Better to have a comfortable sofa. However, we enjoyed staying here for two months. The price is right.

Best feature was short walk to beach. Pet friendly rental is a plus as we have a dog but didn't bring on this trip. It was clean and didn't notice any pet odors although there seemed to be at least one carpet stain. Biggest draw back was the noise of the creaky floors. It seemed the second floor occupant (owners?) had jobs to get up for early every morning. The noise always woke me so I really didn't get to sleep in. Another draw back was no ventilation in bathroom. Window wouldn't open and fan ran but didn't remove air. It just swirled the air around which would account for cracked and peeling paint in the bathroom. I like to cook and this was a difficult layout to cook. The only counter space near the stove was taken up by the microwave. There was a plenty of kitchen ware, but no cutting board and most of the pans were old and worn out. They looked like they were from yard sales. We might consider this rental again if we bring our dog.

This rental was wonderful. Just a block from the beach and a restaurant/outdoor bar. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen has everything you will need to cook and prepare meals on your vacation. The only problem I encountered were bugs. A few roaches and a few spiders that could be easily taken care of by periodically saying passion around the house.

Enjoyed our stay. It was quiet and relaxing. Loved being so close to the beach. It was a short walk on the beach path. The first day there were renters in the second floor apartment. They were quiet, but the floors creaked. We were not bothered by that. The place was clean and had plenty of linens. The kitchen was well supplied with everything we needed for cooking. I would refer this house to a friend.

Overall we were satisfied with our stay at 200 Down. The location is toward the end of the island near the inlet between Isle of Palms and Sullivan's island. The beach is a direct 2 block walk from the unit which is very convenient. There is an outdoor shower and rinse off area around the back which is also very convenient after getting off the beach. Only negatives were the fire ants around the property, the only toilet was loose which the owner promptly offered to fix and the noise coming from the floor above. You can hear just about everything going on upstairs when there are tenants are home. It is almost impossible to keep from dragging dirt into the front of the house on your way in and out. As can be seen in the picture there is no sidewalk from the driveway pad to the front door and barely any grass. The front door opens up to carpet which takes all the dirt on your way in. A sidewalk connecting the driveway to the front porch and a tiled area as you come in the front would greatly cut down on this issue. Island Realty is always great to deal with. Smooth rental process and always available and receptive. We prefer to stay at the Sea Cabins where there are more people and action but with our new dog we had to choose a dog friendly rental. I would not rec. to a friend solely based on the noise coming from the upper level. I'm a very light sleeper others may not have an issue with people and dogs up walking around at all hours of the night.

Anonymous from Charlotte - Posted: July 2016

Thank you for the honest review and suggestions! I encourage you to visit again, and perhaps consider the upstairs unit. Both the lower level and upper level have had the carpeting removed, and brand new flooring installed in the living room and bedrooms.

Need to Update their TV and put one in at least one bed room. Take carpet up and put floors you can sweep because you come straight in the front door onto the carpet and there not much out on the stoop to wipe you feet. In Bathroom need towel rack or hooks to hang stuff when you take a shower. Dead bird on back pourch.

Location is great and awesome that you can have pets. Need to put some money they make back into the place. The place is very basic. I feel for $1150 for 3 nights. It should look better. Also the grill was just gross and very old. The place is very clean but just needs a make over. Put a TV in the master bedroom.

Thanks for considering this message. The internet is a safe place for folks to anonymously spew negative comments, of course - but I'm not that guy. Happy to talk more personally about our vacation experience with the interest of improving future guests' experiences. After all, if Island Realty wasn't interested in the candid feedback, why ask?

We found the home to be in a great location - don't move it! The price was reasonable and probably market competitive. We have a (kenneled)) puppy which probably limited our rental options, so we made the commitment to 200 Carolina (down). Bottom line: the place was safe, convenient and suitably sized. It was also tired (needs paint, carpet, updating throughout - kitchen, furniture) and not terribly clean. (Caked on dirt on baseboards, black mold on the shower water handle, several carpet stains. The bed linens were clean, however the towels did not smell fresh - even the kids asked why they spelled like pizza. Hmmmmm.) So, 200 Carolina is probably not ever going to be your feature property - I get that - but decent things can be done to showcase small, older spaces.

The property is definitely within walking distance of the beach which is nice. It is spacious inside, but rather awkward with only one bathroom. Additionally, the lack of a washer and dryer is not great. When we arrived the trash had been left on the living room coffee table (that should have been the responsibility of the property manager). The carpeting definitely needs to be cleaned, all rooms need serious paint and all of the blinds on every window need to be replaced. The extensive mold/mildew issues in the bathroom really should be addressed soon. If you are staying in this unit be prepared to hear every noise upstairs. We actually cleaned the property thoroughly and in a better way than we found it.

The property description is accurate but doesn't mention that the sun shines in windows on 4 sides of this little house and I can play frisbee with my dog in the backyard. The location address is accurate but can't capture how much of a treat it is to walk to the beach every day and explore what treasures the ocean tides have left behind. Wonderful, comfortable, relaxed living made better by how responsive the property management folks are.

House needed more cleaning supplies - no cleaners for tile floors, kitchen, or bathroom. However, there were samples of shampoo, soap, dish detergent, coffee, etc. and extra pillows and blankets.
Island Reality was great to work with for our vacation. The agents were extremely helpful and accomadating. Thanks!
