We loved the cottage it was the perfect size for two couples and an infant! Having the third full bath was a plus! Location was great, a short walk to the beach. We enjoyed some local golf (incredible courses!) and some sightseeing in Charleston. The cottage was clean and updated - the property manager was very accessible when needed, and we thoroughly enjoyed some quiet family time.

Great location, great condo

We just spent a very nice week on Kiawah Island. The condo was very nice and roomy, well equipped and ideally located: 3 mins walk from the beach, in a very quiet cul-de-sac. It is about 45mins from downton Charleston, via a very pretty road. A large convenience store is just minutes away for day to day grocery shopping. Great place to stay for family vacation!

Ideal location in Kiawah

Wonderful week long stay in this beautiful beach cottage. The kitchen was spacious and bright. The 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms gave the whole family privacy and plenty of room to get ready for dinner after a day at the beach. The location and easy walk to the beach and pool were perfect! Having a gas grill and large patio made dinners in easy and fun. Great updated communication and suggestions from the property manager.

This cottage was perfect for our family of 5. Everything was clean. Communication with the property manager was excellent. Just a short walk to pool and beach.

Everything we wanted

When we walked in the unit, it had a faint smell of bleach and we knew right away that the unit had been thoroughly cleaned. In other rentals that we’ve gotten through realtors we have had to clean it ourselves before settling in. The beds were comfortable, the layout was perfect. There was a short walk to the beach. BTW, it was one of the cleanest beaches I have ever been to. There were plenty of linens and the kitchen was well stocked. The community was quiet and we loved the deck and porch that was part of the unit. And lastly, the host was ready and available with answers to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful home close to the beach and pool

This is a lovely place -- clean, comfortable, spacious, and attractively furnished. The location is great. - a quick walk to the pool and beach. The kitchen was very well-stocked, and there were beach chairs, an awning, and a cart under the house. The guys loved the outdoor shower. It's up on the main floor just outside the front door. We all loved the screened porch. An added treat: all the showers (three inside!) had great water pressure! We rode our biles 1.5 miles down the beach and saw dolphins at the tip of the island. BTW, if you're a biker, be sure to go online to get the Kiawah bike map.

Great location

This cottage was great. We used to stay in a larger house on the East side of the island. There is no need for that anymore. This cottage was perfect for our family of five. Very roomy. Each bedroom had a bathroom. Clean. Well stocked. Susie, property manager, was amazing to work with. Ask her about seeing the dolphins! The location of the cottage is perfect in regards to walking to the beach and the pool. It is also at the end of the street so no through traffic. It was quiet all week. We would definitely stay here again.

Not bad…but…

3.5 stars: The location of this cottage is great- convenient to the pool and a short walk to the beach. The property manager was so nice and quick to respond. We did have a few issues- the master bed was extremely hard and SO uncomfortable. One of the showers was scalding hot and would not cool down, the kitchen table chairs (different than pictured) were broken and wobbly and the kitchen was missing a few standard amenities- pot holders, etc. We found multiple huge palmetto bugs crawling through the house as well. Overall, not bad- but would hope they look into some of the above.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Jun 2024
Thank you for your compliment on our service and I am so glad you liked the location and proximity to the community pool and the beach. I am, however, extremely sorry some aspects of the cottage were less than stellar, especially since every item you mentioned in your review, aside from mattress, could have been addressed and rectified immediately if only you had contacted us. In our welcome email, and in the cottage welcome book, we encourage guests to contact us in the event anything is amiss so that we can correct it. We do spray regularly for bugs but Kiawah being a tropical island, during summer, bugs tend to find their way to the cooler air when doors are opened, even for the shortest period. Even so, we would have done a light spray to take care of them while you were there. The dining chairs were just purchased this year, and my sincerest apologies, but we were not made aware before now that they had become "wobbly". We will definitely address this, as we never want "wobbly" or dangerous furniture in the cottage. Regarding the mattresses, they were chosen by the owners for their personal use, and no previous guests have commented on them. So while this is perhaps a matter of personal preference, I really do appreciate that you mentioned this for future guests who may not prefer an extra firm mattress. Thank you again for being our guest and I hope you will give us a chance to accommodate you again in the future.

About the host

Host profile image
We purchased our cottage on Kiawah Island in summer of 2005, and I began renting it on VRBO during the weeks we were not able to enjoy Kiawah ourselves. In 2007, a friend asked me if I would help her rent her villa also. Since I loved helping people plan their vacations in the area, I obtained my South Carolina Property Manager's License and began a business - Kiawah By Owner. I now help rent more than 25 other properties on Kiawah Island in addition to our cottage. I look forward to helping you plan your vacation - Susie Oringel

What makes this property unique
