From the moment you step into this vacation rental, stress leaves your shoulders and a light sense of relaxation takes its place. Ocean views anchor both the living room and master bedroom. Slide open the balcony door for a more immersive ocean-view experience, take in the tranquil landscape as the sun rises over the open water, listen to the steady sound of waves in the distance, and indulge in the refreshing sea breeze.

With 1 bedroom and 2 bathrooms, the Escape at Windswept provides extra space for the perfect beach vacation. The master bedroom features majestic natural views from the comfort of a king-sized bed, outfitted with pillow-top mattresses, memory-foam toppers, Egyptian-cotton sheets, and down-alternative pillows. Enjoy a hot cup of coffee on a lazy morning or catch up on the latest news on the suite’s large smart TV.

When you’re ready to start your day, take your time in the master bathroom, complete with a large glass walk-in shower. The living room is cozy with a large smart TV and a small library of books, perfect for planning a day on the beach or relaxing after a sun-filled afternoon. The accessible floor plan makes it easy to move from room to room, whether you’re cooking a meal in the fully furnished, elegant kitchen with stainless steel appliances or playing games in the dining room as the sun sets.

Relaxing Spring Break!

We could not have asked for a better location! The weather was beautiful, the room was fantastic and clean, and we had the beach to ourselves. When we checked in, the owner had a delicious plate of deviled eggs ready for us! It was a great experience, and we hope to return soon!

Breathtaking Views with Amazing Accommodations

This beautiful property was the perfect stay for my wife and I on our honeymoon. We could not have asked for a better location and host. The place was clean, well stocked, and had everything you could need for a vacation at the beach. Short walk to a wonderful park with a place for morning coffee and breakfast. Very close to nationally ranked golf courses and The Ryder Cup Bar, highly suggest! Waking up with ocean views made for a great start to each day on the quiet yet eventful island!

Beautiful & Comfy Villa on the Ocean

Absolutely stunning! Beautifully decorated with comfy living room furniture- the big sectional was great for lounging! So many condos have just crappy uncomfortable furniture-but not this one! Could see the ocean from the living room AND bedroom! Kitchen fully furnished and even had things in case you forgot your own items. Owners were so fast to respond to questions. This is definitely a condo we wish to stay in again. You can tell the owners absolutely love their vacation home and wish for visitors to do the same.

Immaculate with upgrades

The hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed to have a the most relaxing and stress free vacation. No need to pack kitchen necessities, spices, plastic baggies, or anything! Space was very clean and the amenities were top notch. Can’t speak high enough about this space. We can’t wait to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Jeanette Lawson

Host profile image
About Property Managers, Shawn and Jeanette Lawson (Kiawah Island Getaways):

Shawn's family discovered Kiawah in 1978 and returned year after year for two-week vacations. In 1985 we drove our VW Bug convertible to Kiawah and Shawn introduced me to Kiawah. I remember stepping over the dune boardwalk out in front of the Kiawah Island Inn and seeing Kiawah's wide, sandy beach for the first time - it was so brilliant it practically danced before my eyes. It was during this vacation that the two of us decided to set our sights on moving to this beautiful and fascinating place permanently.

In 1988 our dreams came true and our U-Haul rattled across the Kiawah Island bridge (at that time it was nothing more than a wood-planked bridge). For the next four years we rented a 1-bedroom villa, 4251 Mariner's Watch. Shawn was so thrilled to be living on the island that he applied for the personalized South Carolina license plate 'KIAWAH' (which we still have today).

In 1992, we built our first home on the island at 134 Conifer Lane. During construction, I gave birth to our first son Benjamin - he arrived 2 months early in an ambulance outside of the Kiawah Island Fire Station.

In 2001, we purchased our first villa, a 1-bedroom, beachside Seascape and Kiawah Island Getaways was born. Once we got our feet wet with the villa rental business, it was a like a fever for us. We both really enjoyed furnishing, decorating and maintaining the villas - not to mention the new found fun of meeting and talking to all sorts of people about Kiawah. Because we really enjoy what we do, other Kiawah property owners noticed and we started managing their properties as well.

Our whole family loves Kiawah and running Kiawah Island Getaways is a true family-run business. We personally prepare each villa prior to your arrival - because we want your stay to be perfect. We want you to fall in love with Kiawah too...and we know you will.

What makes this property unique

From the moment you step into this oceanfront vacation rental, stress leaves your shoulders and a light sense of relaxation takes its place.
