The house was spotless, well decorated, and in a great location. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. Our whole family loved the house and had a great stay. Great for walking and enjoying IOP, steps from the beach!
Great place and awesome location!!! We had the best time!

A good place for rest
Our whole family of grandchildren, parents and grandparents had a good time staying at your house. It was very quiet there, and that gave all of us an opportunity for a much-needed rest.

Would stay again!
We had a wonderful stay. The communication and responsiveness was great, walk to the beach was easy, location was close to good restaurants, and our kids and dogs loved the backyard.
Some of our favorites: HomeTeam BBQ, The Obstinate Daughter, Patriot’s Point/U.S.S. Yorktown, Downtown Charleston, key lime pie from Simmons Seafood.
Would definitely return!
Response from VrboOwner on Aug 16, 2026
Thank you for the kind review of The Blue Oyster! The kids and dogs loving the backyard is a great sign, and that restaurant list is a solid one, we will point future guests toward the key lime pie. We hope to welcome you back soon.
Steven, iTrip Charleston Beaches
the bedrooms were great for the family and the living areas too. the outdoor patio and shower were good. the only area that was lacking is that the bathrooms are tiny, not a big deal for us but could be for others.
This a great place to stay. As a couple it provided us plenty of room and the backyard was a big plus for our dog. A short walk to the beach and easy access to the supermarket/retail and Main Street areas. Nice restaurants on island. Plenty of room for two cars. Two bathrooms were nice but could be cramped for a tall or wide person.
Beautiful property, very clean, and close to the beach! We loved our stay at The Blue Oyster!

I would definitely book this again when we come back.

Love this place! It’s a family tradition!
This is our second year as a family at the Blue Oyster, and we can’t wait to book a third! The house is spacious, clean, and well stocked. It’s sunny, welcoming, and bright. There’s plenty of dishes, silverware, supplies, towels, and even beach toys to use. But I think one of our favorite things about it is the massive back yard, perfect for our three golden retrievers. And after a day with them at the beach, the outdoor shower is absolutely perfect to rinse off the sand, and the deck and mud rooms are excellent spots to dry them off.
We also love the patio and the comfortable outdoor furniture. We love letting the dogs out to run and play in the back yard in the mornings while we drink coffee on the deck. The landscape lighting at night is also really nice in the back. It’s a great place to relax.
The beds are super comfortable, too. We sleep great. And although the bathrooms are a bit small, the shower heads are good and water pressure is great.
We love the place. The hosts are extremely accommodating of our pets. It would be a deal breaker for us if they weren’t, but the deposit for them is reasonable and fair.
We had such a great time in IOP and Charleston. There’s so much to do there, and this is a fantastic place to stay! We can’t wait to book next years trip at the Blue Oyster house. 👍

Thank you, Michael, for the kind review of The Blue Oyster! Two years running, and glad the back yard and outdoor shower suit three golden retrievers so well. We'll look forward to year three. Steven, iTrip Charleston Beaches

IOP vacation
My family enjoyed staying at the Blue Oyster in IOP. The home was clean, provided everything we needed, and the location was perfect. The best part was the back porch and enclosed back yard for our dogs. We will definitely book again.

Great Stay!
Nice condo and very close to beach. Place was nicely furnished and recently remodeled. Having a fenced in yard was great for our dog Teddy. Lots of things are walking distance from the condo including grocery stores and restaurants. We plan to stay here again!

Comfortable, short walk to the beach
Our multi generational family enjoyed our stay at the blue oyster! It was exactly as described in the listing. We found it very clean and comfortable upon arrival. The outside shower was so convenient when we returned from the beach (a super short walk to get there!). Owners were great at communication. We will definitely stay here again!
My family of 4 stayed here over the 4th weekend! It was the perfect location. Walking distance to the beach and renting a golf cart to head over to the grocery store or restaurants works perfect. The hosts provided great communication throughout the trip. Location was clean and offered all of the amenities we needed. We will be back!

Best Stay Yet!
We've been going to Isle of Palms for several years now, and each year we book a different stay, either because the previous year's location wasn't that great, or the property is no longer being offered. This year, we finally found our ideal yearly stay! As soon as the dates open up, I'm booking The Blue Oyster for my family next year. It was spotlessly clean, spacious, and the back porch, yard, and shower for post-beach cleanup of ourselves and our pets was more than perfect. We cant wait to stay there again next year, and hopefully the years that follow!
