In accordance with the Town of Kiawah Island Short Term Rental Ordinance, all guests understand that the approved number of bedrooms is 6, the maximum allowed occupancy is 14, and the maximum allowed number of vehicles is 5.
This Kiawah Island vacation rental, located in Vanderhorst Plantation, is positioned on the second row from the ocean and offers 6 bedrooms, scenic views, and a private pool.
The main living area on the first floor includes a couch, four chairs, a TV, and a surround sound system. Upstairs, there is also another living area with a large leather sectional, a 65” TV, sound system, and small kitchen area. The fully equipped, spacious kitchen is perfect for preparing meals. The kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a 6-burner gas cooktop, and a separate ice maker. There is plenty of seating either at the breakfast bar or around the kitchen table. The laundry room and a half bath are conveniently located off the kitchen towards the back of the home. Guests may enjoy the Sonos Sound System, which can be utilized in the living room, kitchen, and pool deck.
Near the kitchen, you will find the first-floor primary suite with a king-sized bed, a Tempurpedic mattress, and a spacious ensuite bathroom with two large sink areas, a bathtub, and shower with a rain head. Four additional bedrooms are located upstairs. A secondary suite features a king-sized bed, TV, deck access, and a private bathroom with a large rain shower and two sinks. The first queen bedroom also offers deck access, has a TV, and a private bathroom with a shower. The second queen bedroom has a TV and an ensuite bathroom with a shower/tub combo. The final upstairs bedroom has two twin beds, a TV, and private bathroom with a shower. Additional sleeping quarters are in the guesthouse.
The deck leads to a separate guest house complete with a large king bedroom suite which includes a small kitchen area with a sink, mini fridge, microwave, and dishes. There is a sitting area with a sleeper sofa, two chairs, a wall-mounted TV, and a full bathroom with a large shower.
The large pool deck features four lounge chairs and a covered area with a dining table. The dimensions of the pool are approximately 20ft x 13ft. The pool cannot be heated.
