#208 "Sandy Schus" 1 BD + Sleeper, Modern,Pool
Welcome to Sandy Schus, (a playful nod to “sandy shoes” after a day at the beach) comfortable and updated 1 bedroom Isle of Palms vacation rental at The Ocean Inn. Just a short walk from the beach, this second floor condo is a great spot for couples or couples traveling with a baby or small child who want an easy, relaxed island stay.
The open living and kitchen layout makes the space feel larger than many one bedroom condos, with plenty of natural light and a comfortable place to unwind after a day outside. The living room includes a queen sleeper sofa and Smart TV, creating a cozy space for relaxing in the evenings.
The bedroom features a king bed with comfortable space on both sides, something guests appreciate in a one bedroom condo. There is also storage for your belongings and a calm, comfortable atmosphere that makes it easy to get a good night’s sleep.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the space and includes a full stove, dishwasher, Keurig coffee maker, toaster, cookware, and everything needed for simple meals or snacks during your stay. Bar seating at the counter keeps the space social and relaxed while cooking or enjoying a quick breakfast before heading to the beach.
The bathroom features a tiled walk-in shower, making it easy to rinse off after a day at the beach. It is simple, clean, and practical for getting ready for the day or winding down in the evening.
Step outside to the private balcony where two people can sit comfortably and enjoy the island breeze. It is a quiet place to start the morning with coffee or relax in the evening after a day on the sand.
Beach chairs and gear are available for guest use, making it easy to head out for the day without overpacking.
The Ocean Inn property includes a pool, two grill areas, free parking, and shared laundry facilities just steps away. The pool is close to the condo but far enough that you will not hear the activity.
You are also within easy walking distance of the beach, restaurants, shops, and the local coffee shop next door. Bike and golf cart rentals nearby make exploring the island even easier.
Historic downtown Charleston is just a short drive away if you want to spend a day enjoying the city’s restaurants, history, and shopping before returning to the relaxed pace of island life.
Sandy Schus is a great choice for guests looking for a comfortable condo with a king bed, quiet balcony, and a location that makes enjoying Isle of Palms simple and easy

Had a wonderful few days before thanksgiving here. Walking distance to 5 great little beach bars with live music and good food. Quick access to the beach and 15-20 minute drive to downtown Charleston.
Clean, quiet and very comfortable place to stay. It is staying in my “saved places” list for the next trip.
The condo was in the perfect location. A short walk to the beach, restaurants and beach shops.
My daughter and I were in town for two different family events.
Easy access to main roads. Parking was great.
Check in was very easy.
I will definitely stay again.
We had a great time staying here! The apartment was clean, quiet, and looked just as advertised. The bed was very comfy, and the dual shower head was a nice touch. The location was fantastic- steps away to the beach, restaurants/bars, a wonderful breakfast cafe, and a grocery store. Would happily stay here again!
Our OBX trip got canceled last minute due to flooding, so we had to find a new spot fast — and wow, we totally lucked out with this condo! It was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had absolutely everything we needed (we didn’t even have to use the stuff we brought). Great value, close to the beach, super comfortable, and the host was fantastic to work with. This was our first time renting through VRBO, and it was such a great experience — we’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

this was perfect place for my wife and I to stay for a long weekend. Clean and updated, close to everything, only 5 minute drive to Sullivan's Island, 10 minutes to Shem Creek and 20 to Downtown Charleston. We had the pool to ourselves!
Long weekend for myself

Great Vacation
Very well cared for condo, close to the beach and downtown Isle of Palms. Did not realize that you can rent umbrellas and chairs at the businesses near the condo for the beach. Overall great stay and very accommodating.
Our stay was amazing! It was a short walk straight to the beach. There were shops and restaurants in walking distance as well. The condo was very clean and neat. All guests around us were very friendly and we never had any noise complaints.
It was just like I saw in the photos. Cute and comfortable. Only thing my husband mentioned is that they should have a TV in the bedroom and the one in the living rm/ kitchen was super small.
Everything looked as it did online. Very clean. Beth was very friendly and helpful. Comfortable furniture. Bed was very comfortable. Had all you needed to cook in the kitchen even had a few spices in the cabinet. Two shower heads and lots of water pressure along with a bench for those who can't stand long or need to shave their legs. Loved the sitting area on our deck and enjoyed our views while there with a steady cooling breeze. The area was quiet and the grounds were kept clean. I would stay there again and recommend to others as well.
Everything was nice about our stay. good central location to public beach. We were in town for a baseball tournament, so we really were not in the condo much. The last day we were there for dinner and packing and we got a text letting us that we were too loud, and the building is not soundproof. Kind of annoying. We were not doing much other than packing stuff up and getting the condo back in shape. We felt like we couldn't move around much after that.
Furniture was dingy and discolored looking. White chair had brown and orange stains all over. The weather strip on the bottom of the door is coming off and there is a visible hole/space to the outside.
We loved the location. Getting up early, super easy walk to the beach was very nice. Multiple restaurants you can walk to, coffee, convenience store. Easy check in process, unit had everything we needed.
The perfect spot for a beach adventure. Everything was as advertised. We loved Isle of Palms. The only thing we wished for was a couple of beach chairs or beach towels with the rental. Still… we give it 5 stars.
Loved the location. Need to have info in description about stairs. Had heavy medical equipment that needed to be carted up stairs. There was clothes left behind and floors were unswept.
My boys and I loved our stay. The property was exactly as described, pool was super clean and convenient location to the beach and shops. We were able to walk to everything.
We loved staying here...perfect location and so clean. Be sure to bring quarters for the laundry facility, as change was very hard to come by on the island. The decor was charming...the walk to the beach very short..and an amazing seafood restaurant right across the street.
