Wonderful place & perfect location!

We had a wonderful stay at our condo on green dolphin way! The proximity to the beach, golf course, as well as other must-see attractions was perfect. The property was clean, well taken care of, and extremely peaceful. We will definitely be back!

September 2024

This is the 3rd September in a row that we have stayed here. It is clean, comfortable and affordable, and we thoroughly enjoy our time staying here. Bonus: we can bring our dog!! Also great view!! Love sitting on the porch in the morning or evening and listening to the fish jump and see gators. Definitely hope to be back again next Sept., as long as it remains affordable.

Great place

We loved every thing about this condo. It is on the first floor, located 7 minutes from the beach, enough space for all our family members, and allowed to bring our dogs! We felt very comfortably there.

Our go to rental on Kiawah

We love this condo for its location on the lagoon and proximity to the beach. It’s clean and well equipped. The owners continue to make upgrades to the property each year.

Perfect Getaway

The unit was clean, comfy and well equipped. A short walk (5-10 minutes) from the beach and an easy walk to dining options and parks. The porch was a lovely quiet spot to relax with a book and listen to the wildlife.

Good location but otherwise…

Great example of “you get what you pay for.” This condo is in a great location, had clean and comfortable beds, we were glad to be able to bring our dog, and was clean upon arrival. Vacasa was perfect to work with. That being said, this house definitely shows its age with wear and tear. Couches and carpet are old and dingy. The kitchen is the most poorly stocked kitchen of any rental we’ve ever stayed in. Half the cabinets and drawers were empty - the others had MINIMAL and old cookware, etc. Doors to the laundry/utility closet had been removed and looked junky. All in all, we loved Kiawah, the beaches (which we walked & biked to) were gorgeous, dinner at The Sanctuary was amazing. We had a great time and this condo was far and away the best deal economically - and for a reason. Also, we saw so many alligators on this trip - several swimming right outside our bedroom windows :)

Great property and location! My only complaint is the master bed is broken on the left side. I didn’t investigate why… Husband fishes in the lagoon behind the condo and caught several. Lots of alligator activity as well! Thank you for a greasy stay!

This condo is conveniently located mid island and a short walk to the beach. The kitchen is well equipped. The porch looks out on a lagoon complete with alligator. It was very clean.

Lovely condo on Kiawah Island

Spacious condo with two bedrooms and two baths, a good size galley kitchen open to dining area and great room with patio doors opening to a large screened in porch overlooking a beautiful pond with all kinds of birds. The condo is well stocked with most necessities to start you off on your stay there.  I stayed a month, so I had to buy basics like paper towels, toilet paper, laundry detergent, etc.  The coffee pot is an old fashioned drip coffee maker but it served its purpose.  The frig is small, but usable. The master bed is king size and nice, but not the best mattress.  The master bath is very nice with a sink, dressing area and a separate room for tub and toilet. The beach is a very short walk from the condo, about 1/4 mile, and it's a gorgeous beach with very little traffic/people.  Customer service was very responsive to a few things that needed to be fixed.  The neighbors upstairs are very nice people and very quiet. There was ample parking. I loved my stay and would go back.

Just needs a few tweaks.

Great location. Well appointed. Pet friendly. Master bath commode runs. Easy fix. A few bugs, not many over a 10 day stay. Also, an easy fix. All told, a fine place.

Great location and comfortable home for our family!

We love Kiawah Island and have vacationed here for 35 years and always leave wishing we could stay longer! This rental was only a 5 min walk to the beach and had a lovely screened in porch overlooking the pond. The master bed and one of the twin beds were comfortable but the twin bed by the closet needs replaced. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much.

Great back porch

Loved watching the alligators and egrets on the peaceful screened porch. Having a place to bring our dog was important, and the kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils. After staying at both East and West beach rentals, we realize we prefer the convenience of Freshfields, so this location is a bit far for us. I would recommend changing the carpet to solid surface flooring.

Hull Stay

The condo was beautifully appointed, and the view from the screened porch was spectacular! We were lucky enough to have a resident alligator we were able to watch some mornings while we had our coffee! Our stay was lovely in every way and we would definitely stay at #4849 again if we have a chance!

Lagoon

We enjoyed being close to the lagoon. Sitting on the porch watching alligators was a wonderful place for morning coffee and meals. Did not enjoy the elephants that stayed above us! Maybe post some etiquette rules for people staying on 2nd and above floors.
