Kiawah island golf resort is a spectacularly beautiful property, from the golf courses to the private beach. Staff was helpful and friendly. The unit itself was nicely arranged for a group of 4 adults (2 couples). The kitchen well stocked with pots/pans etc. Unit could use some TLC. But the location and resort made up for any shortcomings.

Location was great. I picked this location for “highly rated for cleanliness” but it needs a deep clean as there was thick dust on the vents, fans and some crumbs on the counter upon arrival.

Steps away from Beach

Very nice rental!!! This property is the closest to the beach. Literally walk out the door and you have access to private boardwalk and you surrounded by large dunes with the beach steps away!! Even during July4th , you have so much space away from everyone. Lastly, the owners are 1 text away from any questions and will respond very very quickly!!

Villa on Kiawah Island

Our Villa was clean and spacious. The best part was that the lighting in our Villa was excellent--the sunshine streamed in through numerous sliding doors during the day and at night, the overhead and table lamps were more than adequate. Dish soap was provided, as well as one small wash load size box of laundry detergent. One pouch of coffee was also provided. Housekeeping was available, but we did not request it during our 1-week stay. The Villa is situated on the beach, but the beach is not visible from the Villa due to vegetation blocking the view. Access to the beach is available with a key fob that the registration desk provides.

Pleasant Stay, very convenient

We had a wonderful time on the beachfront condo ground floor. Beach access was perfect and very convenient. The condo was decorated very well. It did lack a few updates to the property. These are only recommendations that I would make. The toasters in the kitchen were old and didn’t work properly. I contacted the owner and he replaced the toasters immediately. The bedroom TV was not working. He had that fixed immediately. I wasn’t aware that it didn’t have a washer and dryer either. I missed it in the description or it wasn’t placed in the description you had to use a shared laundry facility. I feel for a premier property. The unit could use a few updates to its furniture and its bathrooms. they were a little outdated, but nothing bad overall the property was good. I would actually stay there again.
