Perfect for family holiday celebration
We rented this unit for a family gathering over the holidays as it was close to the unit our daughter and son in law own in the next building. They came and went throughout the visit with our 2 yr old granddaughter as did our other adult children who came in from Charleston. This unit was perfect thanks to its spacious layout, puzzles and games, and well-stocked kitchen. We enjoyed our stay!

We absolutely loved staying at 2263 Shipwatch! The place was beautiful and the location was exactly what we were looking forward too. We especially appreciated that the beach was never crowded and we took full advantage of the quiet for some good relaxation time.

Fun in Kiawah
Perfect location - right on the beach. It was the right size for our family of 4. Apartment was clean and well-stocked and recently renovated. The carpet in the master bedroom was a bit worn and could use an update. We will consider staying at this location again when we plan a trip to Kiawah.

Nice stay
We booked a day before we went due to great price. I never received a parking pass by email but the lady at the gate helped and got us one. Great location and convenient to beach! Only negative was no washer/ dryer in the unit and no pool access...but we felt it was priced accordingly.

Key box cover fell off. Got it replaced and came out to cover & key on floor. Dangerous!! .
View from porches was just to parking lot- that should be mentioned in info. Need trash can under sink area- had to open utility closet each time you had the least thing for trash can. Bath tub bottoms slick/ no nonslip Matt’s or tub bottomed and no grab bars. These are needed.

Dirty/ no response
Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were called at 4 pm (check-in time) that our room was not ready with no estimated time. We were very disappointed as we were arriving on the island. At 5:30, my husband went to the door and the hskpr said 30 more minutes ( with no mask). At 6pm, I called AkersEllis and notified them that the condo was dirty and I had taken 12 photos. She offered to have someone come out the next day. Well, I cleaned it at 6pm and emailed the pics to the rental company. I have received no response almost 6 days later.

The overall consensus of our party is that we loved the location close to the beach, the trails, and of course the golf facilities. Quiet, low-key, and plenty of beach to go around.
