In accordance with the Town of Kiawah Island Short Term Rental Ordinance, all guests understand that the approved number of bedrooms is 4, the maximum allowed occupancy is 10, and the maximum allowed number of vehicles is 4. Children under the age of 2 are not included in calculating maximum occupancy.
This lovely Kiawah Island vacation rental in West Beach was fully renovated in 2020. This home is in an ideal location for traveling to Freshfields Village or Charleston, and it is close to the Cougar Point Clubhouse. It is a 5-minute easy bike ride to the beach via the bike path.
Welcome to paradise! Walk into the home and immediately notice the open floor plan and abundance of natural light. The living area, directly in front, hosts a comfortable couch, 4 swivel chairs, and a TV perfect for watching the big game or a movie. The living area is open to the dining and kitchen areas. The dining room table can sit 8 guests comfortably. The fully-equipped renovated kitchen features a center island with barstool seating for 3, white cabinetry, granite countertops, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, including a gas stove. The dining area offers easy access to the screened porch and back deck with gorgeous marsh views and comfortable furnishings. Guests are welcome to use the gas grill on the back deck. A half bathroom completes the first-floor common space.
All bedrooms received new furniture, new carpet, and TVs with Rokus as of 2020. The first-floor primary suite features a Sleep Number king-sized bed and private bathroom with shower and soaking tub. The second-floor suite features a king-sized bed and private bathroom. The third bedroom features one queen-sized bed and a private bathroom. The fourth bedroom has a unique bedding set-up with two twins over a king-sized bed (see photos). This bedroom has access to a brand new (2024) hall bathroom with a walk-in shower.
The home is equipped with washer, dryer, tankless water heater, and high-speed wireless internet. A pack-n-play is available but guests are responsible for bringing sheets. Kitchen spices and coffee filters are provided. As an alternative to cable, guests can enjoy 70+ channels, including local Charleston channels, via YouTube TV and the ability to use the ROKU-equipped TVs to access their own personal streaming accounts.
Guest reservations of 3 to 21 nights come with a valuable credit to use towards beach gear rentals during your stay! The credit amount for this property is $300. You may use your credit for bicycles, beach chairs and umbrellas, beach carts, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and more – the choice is yours!
During your stay on Kiawah Island, be sure to enjoy biking on the 30 miles of flat bike trails, golfing on one of five world-class courses, playing tennis, crabbing, fishing, swimming, and boating. Many families also enjoy the kids’ camp and nature programs at Night Heron Park.
Kiawah Island is about 40 minutes from historic Charleston, famous for incredible shopping, galleries, antique stores, museums, the South Carolina Aquarium, horse-drawn carriage rides, historic landmarks, and sumptuous dining.
