From its perfect oceanfront location, this home just sings with incredible views, tons of character, and fantastic amenities throughout. Whether you book it for small events, family get-togethers, or just for catching up with old friends, you'll love this place - particularly all the cool things you find here, such as the ship's helm and barber's chair. Assemble all the family chefs in the full kitchen to cook up today's masterpiece, then gather in the enormous living area for cocktails, music, and great conversation. Later, head down to the water for an evening moonlight stroll and ocean surf.

The beach is mere steps from your home. Less than a mile up the beach, you'll find a popular spot for surfers known as "The Washout." Visit Shaka Surf School, one mile away, for today's lesson, or enjoy watching locals catch some of the best waves in South Carolina. Hop in the car and head to Lighthouse Inlet Heritage Preserve, just two and a half miles away. For a small donation, you can walk or bike through the preserve to enjoy views of the Morris Island Lighthouse. Local shops, dining, and the pier are just a short drive from your front door. For those interested in exploring downtown Charleston, you'll find the historic district is waiting only 13 miles away.

Great location
We loved where the house was located. Enough space for all of us. We wound up being a smaller group than originally planned. We loved the style of the house. The kitchen was nice and spacious. We could also see the sunrise and set from the deck. Loved our stay. Bummed that it’s not available this year.

Wonderful, but know what you're getting.
First and foremost, let's talk about the location and overall charm of this beach house. It's absolutely fantastic! The house is situated in a prime spot with breathtaking views and the beach just a stone's throw away. The property exudes a unique character that makes it stand out from the rest. The kitchen is a highlight for those who love to cook and socialize. It's surprisingly well-stocked with various kitchen utensils, thanks to what seems to be contributions of previous guests. While the items might not be the best quality, they do the job and allow you to whip up some fantastic meals while enjoying the ocean view. The upper level boasts a split-level master suite with a cozy sleeping area overlooking the ocean, complete with sliding glass doors leading to a covered balcony. The other four bedrooms on the main floor each have their own bathroom, with two of them also having doors to a deck facing the ocean. Take your time to look around at all of the details. There are thousands of those charming little things either as part of the furnishings, or hanging as art. Of course, one of the most interesting pieces, what appears to be a ship’s helm fastened to the base of the staircase. Now, I can’t be sure, but it looks like the columns used for the staircase are from ships’ masts. We just loved this house! I The living area is spacious and perfect for larger groups, providing ample room for everyone to feel comfortable. Had more, but I'm out of space..

Sunrises and Ocean
We enjoyed our stay. The wall of windows in the living room area make for a spectacular view of sunrises and the ocean. We had no problem working remotely. We would recommend including step-by-step instructions regarding the elevator at the time check-in instructions are given. Step one being to check the circuit breaker upstairs near the master bedroom to ensure the elevator is switched to on. We opted not to use the elevator since we had already unloaded our stuff by the time we realized the elevator was switched off. The location was perfect for us. We would stay here again.

Beautiful oceanfront
This home was lovely! There was always something new we noticed in the décor which is always fun. The views were perfection. Even though we had a rainy day, we were able to sit inside and watch the waves roll in and surfers brave the chill. We did have a complication with the heat and couldn’t get the main floor warmer than 60 degrees. We also had a newborn with us and we were able to communicate with the property managers but no one showed up so that was disappointing. We were only there for three nights and the sun finally came out on our last day which helped. It’s always a bit disappointing when you have a legitimate complaint and no one shows up. Without that issue, we would give it five stars!

Perfect beach house!
Charisma by the Sea is the perfect beach house for a large group or multiple families - huge kitchen, all en suite bathrooms, and a spacious deck with steps to your front yard, the beach! The house has stunning views from everywhere, is comfortable for kids and adults alike, and is set-up for everyone to go back and forth all day to the beach.

We had a wonderful family Christmas for the week everyone had their own room and space!
The elevator was a blessing especially for my 2 old white goldens with bad hips! The morning sunrise is stunning from the living room. The kitchen had so many options and was wonderful to cook in. All the beds had comfortable mattresses and the claw tub was enjoyed by my grandson. Shell hunting and shark teeth on the beach was the highlight for my adult children. Would highly recommend this place for large families as the double refrigerators were also wonderful for all our food and drinks! I must have walked 50 miles in the 7 days here as the house is so large that on Christmas I walked over 21000 steps and I never left the house as it was freezing outside! Kudos to the owner with all the eclectic touches of boat and sea and beautiful art through out the home. We played games and completed a 1000 piece puzzle. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your home. We truly loved it ❤

Disappointed
Although we had to wait outside an hour for the maids to finish up the house was still dirty We had to wash dishes before using and empty garbage. This has needs a major updating ...most of the furniture is worn out. Floors were so dirty you didn’t want to walk on them with bare feet. Grill was old ,filthy and Not listing. Had to beg Vacasa for a replacement for 2 days. Several of the toilets run off and on all night..I mean the list goes on but I’ll stop here with the critique. The positive aspect of this house is it’s location on the beach and the view from the back decks. While the elevator was working we found it to be useful as well. Would I come back? Only if I was assured that furniture had been replaced and the house was clean.
