On the Beach! Luxury Villa 2 BR/2 BA - Kid & Pet Friendly
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Windswept
The Conways became enchanted with Kiawah one spring break when we drove up the east coast from Florida looking for the perfect place for a second home. When we arrived on Kiawah, we knew our search was over. It wasn’t any one particular thing – it was everything. For the girls, it was the beach. For Peter, it was the golf, and the biking. For Mary, it was the fact that the island is a nature conservancy. Alligators, turtles, bobcats, oh my! And for all of us, it was the serenity of a Kiawah sunrise, and the dolphins playing on the strand at Captain Sam’s inlet.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Windswept was totally remodeled in early 2009. It has granite counter tops, custom cherry cabinets, and designer bathrooms. A large screen TV graces the living room, while each bedroom has its own TV/DVD system. Enjoy dining on the cool patio overlooking the sand and sea. But we don't think you'll spend much time indoors, as the beach is just steps from the door. We don’t operate a rental unit – we open our home to new friends. If you stay in our home we want you to feel right at home yourself. If we accomplish that, we have succeeded. We believe that you will find Windswept to be the perfect base for exploring Kiawah and having the vacation of a lifetime.
Owner's Map of Windswept
The Windswept villa is owned by the Conway family, of Cleveland Ohio. They fell in love with the south while living for some years in Asheville, North Carolina. Charleston was a favorite destination even then. Peter Conway is a partner in the local real estate firm of Akers, Ellis, and Truluck, and manages several Kiawah properties on behalf of his wife and two daughters.
Windswept is managed by family friend Dennis Garapic. Dennis and Peter came together to Kiawah to play golf, and to watch the 2007 PGA Senior tournament on the island. Kiawah has gotten into Dennis’ blood, and managing Windswept gives him an ironclad reason to be a frequent visitor.

We wanted you and the owner to know how much we have enjoyed the visit. This is a terrific condo -- great location, wonderfully equipped, and clean. We have stayed in many different rentals on Kiawah since 1986, and this is one of the nicest. We hope we have the opportunity to stay in it again. We will decide soon if we plan to come back to the Island in August for one week. We also enjoy coming here during Thanksgiving Week. Once we know our needs, I will check to see whether Windswept is available.

"The Lord gives rest to His blessed." We all thoroughly enjoyed your SC retreat! The beach and surf were outstanding. High Cotton and Rosebank Farms Cafe kept us going, between Sweet teas! We had lunch at the Ocean Course, and my black and blue salad was outstanding! Please let us know if you ever need house sitters...... God Bless your family.

Our family of two teenagers and two adults immensely enjoyed our action-packed, but also relaxing week: bike rides, beach runs, swims, tennis, golf...and reading books, hanging out and enjoying family time together. It was easy to make ourselves at home in your lovely, spacious villa. So nice to have laundry facilites too. Thanks for sharing your "home" with us!

What a great time we had here at your comfortable place here on Kiawah Island. We rested, read, talked, walked the beach and took a trip into Charleston. We even took your recommended info on a great place to have lunch - the Ocean Course Club. The day was magnificent, and the food above expectations. Probably most important, we enjoyed spending time in reading God's Word and praying together. Jesus was right when he encouraged the disciples to "Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest" (Mark 6:31) Your place here was a quiet place. And we got some rest. Thanks for providing the place for this to happen. Thank you so much for this four night break from the cold and snow of Northeast Ohio. What a refreshing time!

Your home is so lovely and peaceful with a beautiful view of the ocean. We felt very welcomed and able to relax and enjoy the island. What a blessing to spend three days renewing our friendship and spirits. We hope to return one day.
