About this property

2478 Shipwatch-Ocean Front 2-bedroom villa with Beach front access

Step into a custom, fully renovated, coastal-modern oasis in Shipwatch Villas, West Beach. You will feel like you are staying in a luxury hotel with all of the amenities of a villa. This fourth floor (top floor-elevator access) end unit provides total privacy steps away from the ocean. Enjoy, 3 balconies, one from each bedroom and a larger balcony off the living room. The exterior and interior of the unit were completely redone in 2023, including new concrete porch floors, railing and all new interior design elements. The open kitchen and living room allows for easy entertaining and enjoying the ocean breeze through the two sliding doors that open onto porches. Custom cabinetry and all Viking appliances grace the gourmet kitchen with a large island for eating with a custom built-in banquette. The master suite has a lovely private porch for enjoying morning coffee in your pajamas. The elegant, attached bathroom has a large walk-in shower, a soaking tub, and a private toilet room. The secondary bedroom has another private porch and a bathroom a few steps down the hallway with a beautiful tiled walk-in shower. Closets in both bedrooms are customized. The villa is in an oceanfront property that has a private boardwalk which is the gateway to the pristine beach in literally 150 steps. An easy stroll to get a cocktail or extra sunscreen. A truly remarkable and unique property to enjoy a stellar, beachside escape! An ideal property for four people!

This villa is located in West Beach and across the street from the Kiawah Island Conference Center and Cougar Point Golf Club. Guests have access to all dining on island, golf, and tennis. We do not have resort pool access. The unit doesn’t provide beach towels, beach chairs, or beach equipment. Beach equipment rental information is available.

Beautiful stay in Kiawah

Please do not miss out on this luxe property by the water! Every inch, every detail was carefully curated in this home as it had everything we needed and more. By day 3, we were discovering options we didn't know we had in the home! I won't spoil the fun and surprises but take your time here; this place is worth the stay!Take advantage of the balcony, the tub, the beach walkup seconds away from your rooms.... not sure it could've been better!

Beautiful Space and Beautiful Place!

Your renovated condo is top class!! We really enjoyed our three nights with our adult son and his girlfriend. The place is stocked with everything you can imagine, and it is all in superb condition! We loved how easy it was to get to the beach or ride on the trails to restaurants and shops! If you're staying in Kiawah- this is your place!!

This property is nothing short of perfection! The owner is wonderful! The communication was exceptional. From the moment you step into the condo, you can feel the attention and care given to every last detail.
