About Wild Dunes Resort — Destinations & Venues We Serve
Wild Dunes Resort occupies the northern tip of Isle of Palms, SC, spanning over 1,600 oceanfront acres with two championship golf courses, a full-service spa, conference facilities, multiple hotel buildings, and hundreds of resort villas.
Sweetgrass Inn
The primary hotel at Wild Dunes Resort — oceanfront rooms, suites, and the central check-in point for most resort guests. We deliver directly to the Sweetgrass Inn entrance, luggage handled, 24/7. Most guests arriving at CHS book a direct transfer from our baggage claim meet-and-greet service.
Boardwalk Inn
Boardwalk Inn sits directly on the ocean at Wild Dunes — an intimate beachfront property with direct sand access. Guests arriving at CHS for the Boardwalk Inn receive the same flat-rate door-to-door service, with luggage unloaded at the hotel entrance and the full meet-and-greet experience at baggage claim.
Links Golf Course
The Links Course at Wild Dunes is one of the most recognized championship courses on the South Carolina coast — a Tom Fazio design featuring two oceanfront holes. Golf groups arriving at CHS for early tee times need reliable transportation with room for clubs. We accommodate full golf bags and coordinate arrivals for pre-dawn tee times.
Harbor Golf Course
The Harbor Course at Wild Dunes features Intracoastal Waterway views throughout its 18 holes. Golf groups playing both courses during a stay often need multi-day transportation logistics. AAA Royal Coach provides ongoing golf day transportation throughout your Wild Dunes stay, including early morning pickups and post-round returns.
Conference Center
Wild Dunes Resort’s conference facilities host business retreats, corporate meetings, and association events throughout the year. Conference organizers coordinating airport transportation for attendees arriving on different flights need a partner who handles multi-wave pickups and delivers delegates reliably. Call 843-830-8037 to discuss conference transportation planning.
Beach Club & Grand Pavilion
The Beach Club and Grand Pavilion at Wild Dunes are primary wedding and event venues — oceanfront settings that make for unforgettable celebrations and equally demanding transportation logistics. Wedding guests arriving from out of town, shuttles between hotel blocks and the ceremony venue, and end-of-evening return runs are all services we coordinate for Wild Dunes weddings.
Tennis Center
Wild Dunes Tennis Center is one of the premier tennis facilities on the South Carolina coast — multiple courts, clinics, and tournaments throughout the year. Tennis guests arriving for specific tournaments or academy sessions often need transportation coordination between the airport, their accommodations, and the tennis facility.
Isle of Palms Marina
The Isle of Palms Marina on Morgan Creek sits adjacent to the Wild Dunes Resort area — a hub for fishing charters, boat rentals, and Intracoastal Waterway access. Guests heading to early-morning fishing charters need ground transportation. We serve the marina with the same flat-rate reliability as every other Wild Dunes destination.
Resort Villas & Vacation Rentals
Wild Dunes Resort’s real estate inventory includes hundreds of privately owned villas, beach houses, golf-view properties, and vacation rentals spread across the resort’s 1,600 acres. AAA Royal Coach serves every address within Wild Dunes Resort — just provide your villa or rental address at the time of booking.

What Wild Dunes Guests Say About AAA Royal Coach Charleston
“We flew into CHS on a Friday evening during peak summer — rideshares showed 45-minute waits at outrageous prices. AAA Royal Coach had a driver waiting at baggage claim and had us at Wild Dunes in 30 minutes flat. Worth every penny. Booked them for our return before we even got to the resort.”
“Our company held a 3-day leadership retreat at Wild Dunes. We had 18 executives flying in from 6 different cities across two days. AAA Royal Coach coordinated every airport pickup, had vans waiting for each arrival wave, and delivered everyone to the conference center without a single hiccup. Invoiced the firm directly. Exceptional.”
“Our golf group of 8 flew in from Atlanta specifically for the Links Course. AAA Royal Coach fit all 8 of us and all 8 sets of clubs in two vehicles — right on time for a 7am tee time. They also took us to dinner in downtown Charleston that evening. Best service we’ve had on any golf trip.”
“Our daughter’s wedding was at the Wild Dunes Beach Club. We had 65 guests coming from out of town and needed airport pickups across Friday and Saturday, plus shuttles from Mount Pleasant hotels to the venue Saturday evening. AAA Royal Coach handled all of it — professionally and without a single missed pickup.”
“I travel to Wild Dunes every year for a beach week with my family. We always use AAA Royal Coach. Five years running — never late, always clean vehicles, always a driver who helps with our mountain of beach gear. The flat rate means I know exactly what to budget. They’re the first call I make when I book flights.”
“I’m a meeting planner and have used AAA Royal Coach for three separate events at Wild Dunes over the past two years. Their corporate invoicing, multi-vehicle coordination, and consistent communication make them the only Charleston transportation vendor I trust for client events at this resort.”
Why Pre-Booking Private Transportation Beats Rideshare for Wild Dunes Resort
Travelers often search Google asking whether Uber or Lyft is reliable for Wild Dunes Resort. The honest answer depends on when you’re arriving. During off-peak weekdays in January, rideshare works fine. During the scenarios below, it frequently does not.
Why Travelers Choose AAA Royal Coach Instead of Resort Transportation
Wild Dunes Resort does not operate its own airport shuttle service from CHS Airport. Here is what that means for you as a guest — and what AAA Royal Coach Charleston provides instead.
Exploring Beyond Wild Dunes Resort — Charleston Area Destinations
Wild Dunes Resort guests frequently explore the wider Charleston area during their stay. AAA Royal Coach Charleston provides transportation to every major landmark, attraction, and destination in the region.
Charleston City Market & King Street
The Charleston City Market — one of the oldest public markets in America — sits at the center of the Historic District. King Street runs north from it as one of the Southeast’s premier shopping and dining corridors. Wild Dunes guests visiting for a day trip or evening out are transported directly from the resort to any downtown address. See our downtown Charleston transportation page.
Rainbow Row & the French Quarter
Rainbow Row — the famous stretch of pastel-colored Georgian row houses on East Bay Street — is one of Charleston’s most photographed landmarks. Adjacent to it is the French Quarter, Charleston’s most historic neighborhood. Wild Dunes guests visiting Rainbow Row arrive via direct point-to-point transportation from the resort, with return service at any time.
Boone Hall Plantation
Boone Hall Plantation — one of America’s oldest working plantations with its iconic Avenue of Oaks — sits in Mount Pleasant, approximately 8 miles from Wild Dunes Resort. One of the closest major attractions to the resort. Wild Dunes guests visiting Boone Hall receive direct transportation from the resort and return service after their visit.
Patriots Point & USS Yorktown
Patriots Point Naval & Maritime Museum — home of the USS Yorktown aircraft carrier, USS Clamagore submarine, and USS Laffey destroyer — sits on the Mount Pleasant waterfront directly across Charleston Harbor. Approximately 14 miles from Wild Dunes Resort, this is a popular day trip for families and history enthusiasts staying at the resort.
Shem Creek, Mount Pleasant
Shem Creek in Mount Pleasant is one of the Charleston area’s most popular dining and nightlife destinations — a tidal creek lined with seafood restaurants, rooftop bars, and kayak launches. Approximately 12 miles from Wild Dunes, it’s a frequent evening dinner destination for resort guests. We provide direct transportation from Wild Dunes to Shem Creek restaurants and return service afterward.
Sullivan’s Island
Sullivan’s Island — the neighboring barrier island at the mouth of Charleston Harbor — sits approximately 5 miles from Wild Dunes Resort. Home to Fort Moultrie, pristine beaches, and the Sullivan’s Island Lighthouse, it is one of the shortest trips from the resort. Wild Dunes guests visiting Sullivan’s Island receive direct point-to-point transportation at a flat rate.
Fort Sumter National Monument
Fort Sumter National Monument — where the first shots of the Civil War were fired in April 1861 — is accessible by ferry from Liberty Square in downtown Charleston or from Patriots Point in Mount Pleasant. Wild Dunes guests visiting Fort Sumter need transportation to the ferry departure point. We provide direct service from the resort to both ferry embarkation locations.
Charleston Harbor
Charleston Harbor — one of the most historically significant harbors on the Atlantic Coast — frames the eastern edge of downtown Charleston. The HarbourView area, Waterfront Park, and the Charleston Harbor Marina are popular destinations for Wild Dunes guests who want to experience the city’s waterfront. We serve every waterfront address in downtown Charleston.
Port of Charleston Cruise Terminal
The Port of Charleston cruise terminal is approximately 20 miles from Wild Dunes Resort. Fly-cruise guests often extend their trip with a Wild Dunes beach stay before or after their sailing. We coordinate both legs: airport to resort, and resort to the Port of Charleston cruise terminal on embarkation day.
