Great stay at Kiawah
Excellent beach house. Plenty of room for the family to spread out. Very well appointed and comfortable. Would have given all 5 stars, but the ice maker didn't work and wasn't fixed while we stayed there. Otherwise, everything was terrific.
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Jul, 2023
We are sorry for the apparent miscommunication in regards to the ice maker. We did not receive any calls about a problem with the ice maker at this property and it was working before your arrival and after your departure. We are glad that you enjoyed the house and had a great time on the island. Thank you for your feedback and we hope you will stay with us again!
Our first impression was "wow"! The property was bigger than the pictures showed. Kitchen, main bedroom, living room and screened in porch on main floor were awesome.
Short walk/bike ride to beach.
Would definitely rent here again.

House is in a great location near the beach and West Beach neighborhoods. Easy to get off and on Island. Nice view over a lagoon. House has very nice floor plan. It was very clean and reasonably equipped. Advertised grill didn’t work and rental staff could not remedy the problem. Overall a positive experience.

Thank you for your feedback. It was a pleasure having your for your long term stay. It seems that the ignitor went out on this grill. Unfortunately, it is not an quick or easy fix for grills, but was still fully functional simply using a lighter. I am pleased that our team was able to bring a replacement out to be used during your stay. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the home and time on the island!
Everything was excellent- the only problem I had is that one family member left something there and I called the realtor managing the property and the said they would check asap and call me back. I never heard back from them. I expected them to tell me regardless of if they found it or not. But the property was in excellent condition.

This is our second stay on this home in past 4 years. Loved the upgrades. The interior was most open and very accommodating with great flow. Loved the deck. Great respite from our adult children and grandchildren for coffee in the mornings. Good access to beach. Will go back.

Perfect home for our family vacation. Lots of room for adults & kids. Very comfortable for all of us & in a great location (an easy walk to the beach). The only place that wasn’t spotless was under the couches & I only noticed that since I was on the floor with a crawling kid🙃

Excellent location. Close to the beach. We used the grill out back for several meals, and the large porch overlooking a pond was very nice. It could use some touch up work but overall it was very nice. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.

House is in great location on the island and has a very open floor plan on first floor. Great for big families. Also has very nice, large screen porch overlooking lagoon. Beach less than a five minute walk away.
The property is nicely renovated and well maintained. We were there the busiest week of the year and while there were a couple items that needed tending, the property manager was quick to resolve them. I appreciated the well stocked kitchen, ample storage and convenient location.
