Great Vacation home

Great location, clean and comfortable vacation home. Great access to the beach and nearby grocery stores and restaurants. My only gripe is I wish the rental company had been more forthcoming in telling me that there were indeed beach chairs and beach towels available in the home when I called to inquire. Instead they said I needed to rent them from the company they endorsed. They offered $280 credit to rent from them and if I knew I would have used the credit more efficiently.

Beutiful ocean front getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed the home. The ocean view was gorgeous, the kitchen was a dream to work in, and it was a nice touch to have the smart tv with streaming apps already loaded and available for us to use in the evenings. The only feedback for area of improvement would be to have better lighting in the bathrooms. The current lightbulbs are simply too dim, other than that, all was perfect.

Absolutely Stunning! "Our New Home Away From Home"

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We couldn't have been happier with our Villa. It was absolutely beautiful with no detail overlooked. The views from the deck and from inside were just perfect and it's mins away from everything we love on the island in way of resorts, restaurants, the nest etc. We are already looking to book our next stay!

Great property in perfect location

Our family loved our stay … a great property, steps from the beach. Well maintained, nice layout and very comfortable. Location was perfect, not only because of proximity to beach but also quick walk to market, pool, basketball, trails, etc. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great spot for our family reunion with our adult children, our third visit to Kiawah. This luxury unit has been updated and is very nicely decorated - a sheer pleasure to occupy. Dinner at The Fat Hen is our family tradition. Always a great visit to Charleston with dinner at Magnolia's - best shellfish and grits around. Bird watching while boating on Bohiket Creek is a delight. Great beach for walking or just hanging out.

We plan a family trip every Christmas to Kiawah. We love to stay in the Mariners Watch properties . Unfortunately this property is not well taken care of. There was a leak in the ceiling and the condo smelled of mold. The pots and pans were dirty. There were no hangers in closets . The towel racks in the bathroom fell off the wall in 2 bathrooms. We are very disappointed for the amount of money we spent. The location is great but the property needs some care.

Amazing property, highly recommend.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property was everything and more then the listing showed. Staff was excellent and the property was extremely clean. I would highly recommend this property. My only complaint is they should trim the dunes behind the unit. They were higher then behind any other unit and in my opinion took away from it being a true ocean front. Your view of the ocean was completely blocked except for the side views. If you want full ocean view I’d rent upstairs or another unit. Other then that the property was perfect.

Pretty good beach condo -

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was the the very best thing about the condo. very close to the beach. Good layout. Pretty clean.Having stayed at many different condos and houses at Kiawah over the years:Negatives - main one is that you could hear people in the upstairs unit walking around and talking through the ceiling. More insulation between the two unit or a rug in the upstairs bedroom would help.The bathrooms / showers are very tight in space, especially the bedroom closest to the front door.The toilets are very low to the ground and it would be nice to replace them with comfort height toilets.The dishwashing machine needs to be looked at, the cycles took 4 hours to clean.

Kiawah Beachfron Get Away

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: very beautiful oceanfront condo - kitchen well stocked. A few recommendations for a condo of this high quality - bedrooms had 2 pillows per bed. In the closet were 2 more pillows but no pillowcases. Few blankets to be found. Maybe stock the bathroom with more than 1 night supply of shampoo/lotion. Also, please include at least one night supply of coffee. Very clean condo and exactly as expected per description. We biked, even down to the Ocean Course for lunch. Walking on the packed, clean beach was a highlight. The tennis center was interesting. Although not busy, it seemed impossible to get a hard court so we played on clay twice. They will also need to add pickle ball courts somewhere. The main tennis center only has 4 and they are also hard to reserve. My biggest complaint is that I went to the Tennis Center asking for a court at 8:15 (I was there at 8 and they were open), there was NO ONE on the courts and they told me, "Yes, you can have a court at 8:30". What? I was trying to get on with my day and there was no reasonable explanation for not allowing us to start then and have an hour. Customer service not what I expect on Kiawah - obviously a Kiawah problem, not a rental issue.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a week in the property in early January 2023. Spectacular location, and the house is well designed to take advantage of the beach setting, Everything is very modern, up to date, and the master bedroom suite is terrific...especially the shower area. One very small nit: The TV could use some instructions in how to access the cable service. Otherwise it is a bit hard to find the right input. The cable guy came and fixed it so it is clear but you have to know how to use it. Otherwise it has all the streaming apps on it, and that is very useful. Overall, terrific.

Nice layout

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was very nice. Several nice nooks to sit for reading. Close to the ocean so you can hear the waves at night with open windows. Bathroom layout was nicely done...large open shower, private commode area. Kitchen area was large. Quiet dishwasher. Overall, a good condo for a couple or a small family. The only negative is the high dune behind the condo. This prevented an open view of the ocean directly behind the condo. The ocean is visible to the sides, but not directly behind. Great beach however. Easily accessible from the condo.

Picture Perfect

My sisters and Mother and I had an incredible long weekend in this beautiful villa. The location is perfect, with a 2 minute walk to the beach, and the home is comfortable and gorgeous. There isn't really a beach view from the back porch because of the dunes, but you can feel the breeze and hear the waves (and see the water from inside the home). The beds are comfortable and the home is decorated beautifully. We will definitely be back!
