Kiawah Getaway

After issues with getting into the villa, lock box would not work initially until calling an emergency number and being told to use our car key to push a button in, and then the second key in the box did not work for this villa, a replacement was dropped off, but it also did not work the lock, we were finally able to enjoy the villa and the beach. The villa was clean and just as advertised. Great location to the park, beach, bike trails, and all we were hoping to explore.

Nice location.

The condo location was great and the size was just right for two people. The screened porch was wonderful. The bath needs an update, but otherwise the unit was clean and had everything we needed.

Mariner’s Watch is a great location. My unit was just walking distance across from the beach and right next to the Sanctuary Hotel. The place is nicely decorated and the checkin process was easy. I would stay there again.

Smaller than we usually rent

The property was in a great location. Beach access was excellent. Interior space was just enough for my daughter and I since we were out all day. The kitchen was tight on food storage areas. Overall a pleasant stay at our favorite vacation destination.

Great Beach Access

When I mapped the location, it looked like we had to walk down a road to get to the beach. The Boardwalk was literally across the parking lot from our front door.

Good location can use some updates

We enjoyed our sstay overall there was 1 issue we came back to tke a nap but culdnt because the whole section of units were being loudly pressure washed. I called the offic eshe just said there wasnt anything sceduled for that Saturday? We just went out for several hours while they finished. You could hear the up staits unit -people wqalking but I guess thats to be expected. The units location was good & we enjoyed our stay otherwise. We visited the fresh market along with other shops & restaurants there. We also visited Salty dog on seabrook since its so close.The only drive is out to the oceancourse we went there for lunch. very pretty. For the price worth the stay would reccomend it.

Great Location

This little condo had the perfect location. Less than 2 minute walk to the beach, and walking/biking distance to the Nest Cafe. However the condo could use some updates. The screen on the screened in porch was ripped and “repaired” with tape, the blinds in the bedroom were damaged (able to see in the bedroom from the outside), and everything was just a little old. Ending up having a few cockroaches at the end of my stay as well.

Underwhelmed

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our unit was small, old, and could have used a good cleaning. The lighting is very poor, the only bath very small, and we were glad not to have spend too much time in our unit as it was kind of depressing. The only good thing was the maintenance man who was helpful.

Villa at Kiawah Island

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved Kiawah Island and especially the bike trails. The villa was mostly clean except for a stain on the sheets. I had to wash them. It was well decorated but I think the doors need some repairs. The glass slider was so very heavy to try to open. I think the rollers are worn out and need repairing . Also the main entrance door was very hard to open , had to pull hard towards you and wiggle key. I think in this day and age a digital electronic key would be so much easier. Getting the key from the lock box wasn’t easy either. We rented a condo last year that had a digital keyboard on the food! It was awesome !

Very close to the beach

The condo is one bedroom and one bathroom, but had a sleeper couch. It is very close to the beach, maybe 3 minute walk at the most. Location is perfect. The pool and Night Heron park are right there too. Condo is within walking distance from the Sanctuary hotel. We enjoyed our stay at the property and really appreciated screened porch. The owners have a guest book to sign. I thought it was a very sweet touch.

This vacation was for my two teenage age daughter’s and I to catch up. One daughter finished her first year at ASU and my other daughter going into her junior year. We had a wonderful time. We look forward to coming down each year to stay at this condo for our new traditional getaway. Sunset are gorgeous. Condo wonderful!
