About 914 Ocean Boulevard
Welcome to Casa Banana, one of Isle of Palms' most recognized oceanfront properties. Ideally positioned on a prime stretch of Ocean Boulevard just moments from Front Beach, this exceptional coastal estate offers a rare combination of location, scale, lifestyle, and proven rental performance. This iconic home also benefits from a grandfathered 20-person occupancy permit--a rare find on Isle of Palms, where most vacation rentals are limited to 12 guests.Designed for unforgettable gatherings, the home features seven bedrooms (one currently configured as a billiards and game room), seven full baths and one half bath, and expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces that comfortably accommodate large groups. Owners and guests alike enjoy a resort-style oceanfront setting complete with a large private pool, twin splash pools, an expansive sun deck, hot tub, multiple ocean-view decks, and a private boardwalk leading directly to the beach.
The heart of the home is designed for entertaining, with a renovated double gourmet kitchen, generous dining areas, and inviting living spaces that seamlessly connect to the outdoors. A three-stop elevator services all floors for added convenience. Thoughtful updates and meticulous maintenance throughout the years have kept the property in exceptional condition despite its long-standing success as a premier vacation destination. Recent improvements include a new roof and exterior repainting in 2024, new HVAC systems in 2022, a complete refurbishment of the pool and pool deck in 2025, impact windows and sliders, composite decking and railings and numerous updates to kitchen and baths.
What truly sets Casa Banana apart is its personality. Known by generations of returning guests, the home features a collection of uniquely themed bedrooms and gathering spaces that have become part of its identity and enduring appeal. This distinctive character, combined with its oceanfront setting and exceptional amenities, has established Casa Banana as one of the most memorable vacation homes on the South Carolina coast.
Its strong rental history, loyal repeat clientele, and rare grandfathered occupancy status create a compelling opportunity for investors seeking a turnkey income-producing asset, while its size, amenities, and walkable location make it equally appealing as a private family compound or legacy beachfront residence.
Few oceanfront homes offer the ability to walk to Isle of Palms' restaurants, shops, and entertainment while enjoying the privacy and amenities of a large beachfront estate. Whether envisioned as a personal retreat, investment property, or a combination of both, Casa Banana represents a truly rare opportunity to own an iconic piece of the Isle of Palms coastline.
