World Travel Guide: Holiday accommodation - |
Bookmark | Travel Guide (Home) |
Certain destinations are just a little more polished than others. Not that visiting a rough, unpopulated island or a quiet countryside village don’t have their time and their place, but sometimes it’s nice to go somewhere that’s established itself as hospitable to tourists and well-prepared to show each and every visitor a fabulous time. Wild Dunes is just such a place thanks to its Southern hospitality, generous array of intriguing activities, and an unparalleled natural beauty.
A way to make a trip to South Carolina’s gem even better is to reserve a vacation property. Somehow between the beach, the outdoor activities like eco-tours, golf, tennis and bicycling, it just seems right to unpack your bags for a healthy chunk of time in a place that feels as cozy as your own home.
You’re probably not used to letting the ocean lull you to sleep each night or glancing out the window to make sure the kids are behaving themselves as they build sandcastles, but believe it or not, you could very well find these to be the most natural things in the world before too long.
When imagining what these properties look and feel like, erase your memories of hotel rooms and leave room for something new. Big kitchens that inspire the chefs of the family to get creative, washers and dryers, game rooms and big friendly patios set these beach houses, condos and home-sweet-homes apart from all your previous lodging situations.
The atmospheres created by these alternatives often prove to be perfect for family reunions, so keep this in mind if you have an upcoming get together to plan. When there’s much to do right outside the front door, even if it’s as simple as going for a dip in the ocean (or the nearby pool for saltwater phobes) or a jog along the boardwalk, when people have the option to do what they want, tensions are kept at a minimum. Not that anyone dreads a family reunion of course, but being free to do one’s own thing or make some kids- or adults-only plans means that everyone stays happy.
Wild Dunes is one of the cleanest beaches in the world, and the golf course is the best in South Carolina. The restaurants are to die for, and there’s shopping galore. Even more, Charleston, that friendly, historic and welcoming town, is just 20 minutes away. A day trip would be a good idea and add some balance to the trip. Coming back to your comfy, quiet temporary abode will certainly be a joy, though, and you’ll happily spend the rest of the trip with the car keys tucked away into a drawer.
Summer is the most popular time to visit Wild Dunes, but Winters, with temperatures in the 60s, aren’t too shabby. Also, if you come during this time you’ll find lower rates and special deals on all the hottest properties, so if you’re looking to trade your cold climate for a milder one and want all the comforts of a top-notch vacation, this would be a fine place to go. Some places are spare while others are more luxurious, but all have made someone happy somewhere along the way. Follow your own taste and preferences and see what turns up.
Planning a vacation is sometimes a hassle, but when part of the process involves sorting through all sorts of pictures and descriptions of incredible rental properties, you won’t mind it too much. Achieving successful results will allow you to prove your worth as a savvy trip orchestrater, as everyone will be thanking you profusely for having had the foresight to reserve a Wild Dunes Vacation Rental.
See what develops as you set the vacation wheels in motion. Good things, for sure.
