Here are some tips on how to plan your kid-friendly summer vacation on Isle of Palms, and how you can get a little help from your friends at Carroll Realty.
Spend a Day at Isle of Palms Beach
It can be argued that spending time at the beach is the ultimate summer activity. And we wouldn’t disagree. That’s why it’s coming in first as one of our kid-friendly activities for your summer vacation on Isle of Palms. This beach is loved for its gentle waves, clean and soft sand, and abundance of space to spread out. Kids can run free, play beach games, work on perfecting their sandcastle skills and splash around in the water. You’ll feel at ease watching your children swim safely in the shallows.
Go on an Eco-Tour
Add a little eco-adventure to your summer vacation by taking the kids on a local eco-tour. Here they can learn all about the coastal ecosystem on Isle of Palms, see dolphins, collect seashells, and more. These tours are a great way to give kids a little education while helping them enjoy their summer. They’re also able to connect with nature in a hands-on way.
Take a Day Trip to the South Carolina Aquarium
Just a short 30-minute drive away from Isle of Palms in downtown Charleston is the South Carolina Aquarium. Your kids’ eyes will light up with excitement as they watch sea turtles, otters, stingrays, and other fascinating marine life swim around. The aquarium also features interactive exhibits and touch pools that are perfect for curious little minds. They won’t ever forget the summer they got to touch a starfish or horseshoe crab for the first time!
Explore the Children’s Museum of the Lowcountry
Also located in Charleston, the Children’s Museum of the Lowcountry has creative exhibits that kids will love. There’s an art room, pirate ship, water play area and a grocery store. Kids can explore all facets of life through play, making this a great spot to come on a day with nothing planned, or even a rainy day. Watch as they learn through play at this fun and interactive museum.
Have a Blast at Charleston Fun Park
Keep the energy high this summer at the Charleston Fun Park. There’s never a dull moment at this Fun Park with mini golf, go-karts, an arcade, bumper cars, and a climbing wall. This is the kind of place that guarantees a good time full of smiles and a little friendly competition.
The Best Way to Stay with Carroll Realty
When you’re traveling with kids, where you stay matters. Even though hotels can be convenient, they often don’t offer the all the space and comfort you need when traveling with family. Carroll Realty is here to help with a wide selection of family-friendly vacation rentals on Isle of Palms. You are sure to feel right at home the moment you step inside your vacation rental, and here are some reasons why.
More Space to Spread Out
Vacation rentals from Carroll Realty will give your family room to breathe. Forget the days of squeezing into one hotel room. You and the kids can have separate bedrooms, open living spaces for movie nights and playing games, and outdoor areas for enjoying time in the sunshine.
Full Kitchens for Easy Family Meals
Dining out with your family is fun and a real highlight of summer vacation. But in this economy, dining out every day can get a little pricey. Carroll Realty rentals come with fully equipped kitchens, helping you take the pressure off of feeding your family. Make breakfast in your pajamas, pack beach snacks, or cook up a simple dinner after a long day of summer fun. It’s a win-win situation – kids will get the meals they know and love, and you get to save money!
Beachfront Access
Choosing a beachfront rental puts your family minutes away from the shore. That means no packing up the car or rushing to claim a beach spot. All you have to do is walk out onto your door and you’re at the beach – anytime. This is what summer dreams are made of! Playing on the beach in the morning, taking a break inside for lunch, and back out in the summer sun for more fun!
Family-Friendly Amenities
Many of Carroll Realty’s vacation homes include amenities that families can appreciate. This includes pools, washers and dryers, outdoor showers, bunk beds, smart TVs, and more. These features make it easier for parents to relax and for kids to stay entertained.
