kiawah villa rental
Review Submitted: November 24, 2009
Date of Stay: October 2009
Picture is very representative of this lovely, well decorated, and comfortable villa for 2 or up to 4 people. The kitchen was great, everything neat and clean and the shower was super. The easy walk to the beach was especially nice and walway well lighted at night. The owner provided exceptional service with excellent recommendations for bike rental, culinary (fabulous dining), and things to see and do and was very compassionate when we rescheduled for an accident. Would definetely recommend to friends/relatives and would stay here next time!

This vacation rental was one of the 'Shipwatch' units and it was perfect. It was exactly as described with a beautiful ocean view and a step away from the beach. It was one bedroomed, perfect for a romantic week!. The most important thing for my husband and I, whenever we go away is clealiness. This villa was very neat and clean and equipped with everything you'd need. Shops and restaurants are close by and if you feel like a drive, the quaint, historic town of Charleston is only 20 mins away. Paradise....
The perfect get-away
Review Submitted: July 14, 2009

My husband and I were looking for the perfect get-away and found it on beautiful Kiawah island at this immaculate ocean front villa .A beautiful beach at the door steps of the building and endless bike paths connecting the island from one end to another awaited us. Early evenings we spent on the balcony at the villa taking in the ocean breeze while sipping a glass of wine. A cozy living/dining room, large bedroom and a fully equipped kitchen invited us to relax at our pace.
We especially enjoyed the long bike rides to remote places where we could observe nesting birds and large alligators lurking from the many ponds around the island.
The resort offers a very lovely shopping area with a mix of excellent restaurants, boutiques and a wonderful supermarket
that carries an array of specialties and ready made dishes for take-out. So we felt there was no need travel outside the resort for anything.
We are planning to return to Kiawah, a nature treasure.

Kiawah in June

What a great place! It had everything we were looking for in a vacation villa. Oceanfront, short walk to the beach, the villa was very clean and had everything we needed. I was very pleased at how quiet it was for the month of June too. The beach was not crowded either. I would highly recommend this villa!
Perfect Getaway
Review Submitted: July 13, 2009

This villa is perfect for a couple or a small family. Furnished in lovely "beach style" and very convenient to the beach which is accessible via a boardwalk. The pictures online capture the layout exactly. View from the balconies was of beautiful palm trees and the ocean.
Our favorite activity was biking around the island, reading on the beach and going out to nice restaurants. Charleston is very convenient and we dined there twice. We loved Magnolia's and "Slightly North of Broad." Hege's at the Freshfields Shopping area was also very good. Would definitely recommend.

Relaxing in Kiawah
Review Submitted: May 19, 2009

My husband and I spent a relaxing week in this villa. All descriptions are accurate. We were very comfortable in this clean and cozy place and hated to leave.
We spent our days walking the gorgeous beach and kicking back in lounge chairs on the beach for a couple of hours. We also spent some time just observing and marveling at the beauty of Kiawah.
I had a Mother's Day dining event at the Jasmine Porch, where the chefs were showcasing their local cuisines - with their moms! The Ocean Course Grill is a must do for lunch- the view is spectacular. The meals at both venues were excellent. Freshfields has a nice selection of stores, including Newton Farms for groceries and Hege's for a good dinner. It is a 40-minute ride to Charleston, if you can drag yourself away from the beach.
The owner's communications and instructions were gracious and clear. We appreciated the opportunity to stay at this lovely villa and hope to return in the future.

March in Kiawah
Review Submitted: April 21, 2009

We enjoyed a wonderful and relaxing week at this villa in Kiawah Island. It was very quiet, clean and comfortable, and had everything we needed. It is just as depicted in the pictures, no unpleasant surprises. The beach is wonderful and you can walk for miles. Be sure and rent bikes as the bike trails are a great way to see the island. It's close enough to Charleston if you want to go into the city, but everything you need is closeby. We enjoyed fabulous meals at the Jasmine Porch at The Sanctuary and Hege's at Freshfield's Village. The owner was very pleasant to deal with.
Good Luck Tusculum Girsl Golf
Review Submitted: March 24, 2009

Our visit to Kiawaih was for my daughter and the Tusculum Girls Golf. We were so lucky to find this villa. This villa is located on the second floor but close to the elevator. Inside I found the villa to be clean, very pretty decorated and had everything you need. The king size be was very confortable. On the deck outside the bed room was a beautiful view of the ocean. If you open the doors you can the ocean waves. We were located right on the beach. Kiawah is such a great place to be. I loved the pretty shells we found, long walkd and sun sets. We saw aligators, dolphins, birds and turtles. This villa was a short distance from the 18th hole of Courgar Point golf. The owner was so plesant to deal with and made our arrangemens so easy. I hope to return next year.
Kiawah Marathon

This visit was special as it was the first time to Kiawah and the first time my son had run a marathon. Kiawah is a lovely place, and we had nothing but a good experience through it all. The villa was so accommodating and comfortable, and a vase of fresh roses greeted us upon our arrival. But my biggest impression was the villa owner, who made me feel so welcome. That sure sold me for wanting to visit this villa again!
Kiawah in November
Review Submitted: November 30, 2008

We stayed for five nights in November. It’s a quiet time on Kiawah and you can walk the gorgeous beach “up or down”for miles, meeting very few walkers. [ However,the central / north-eastern side of the island remains inaccessible to "renters" in a car since you need owner's privileges to get you past the security gate]. This second floor unit faces easterly, ie. has morning sunshine through the palm trees. The pictures on this web page and the above reviews accurately convey this unit’s cheerful and well-equipped character. The queen bed is very comfortable. The owner was helpful and easy to deal with. Your best bet for excellent food provisions is at Freshfields, a newly constructed “village market” minutes away up the road to Charleston, where you also find outdoor café, restaurants,book and other stores. We found the unit perfect [ and much better value compared to staying in Charleston ] as a base to drive each day into historic Charleston, the plantations, and Patriot’s Point ... all of which are a reasonable 35-45 minutes from Kiawah, leaving ample time to come back in the late afternoon for a nice walk on the beach into the sunset.
