Family vacation

This is a beautiful, well maintained and spotlessly clean house. The location is great as it is very near a boardwalk entrance to the beach. My husband and I, my two kids and four grandkids all thoroughly enjoyed our vacation.

Kiawah family vacation

We were a family of 15 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. The amenities and the layout of the home were perfect for our family. It was particularly nice to have the pool as an option as well as the close proximity of the beach. The property manager was readily available for any additional needs. We would definitely book this property again!

Great House

I highly recommend this house. We had a great stay and there was plenty of room for our group of 12. The house is very comfortable with many areas to hang out. The kitchen is well-stocked and the beds are comfortable. The home is very private. The owner is very responsive and took great care of us. The house was about a 1 minute walk to the beach path and that area of the beach had very few people.

Wonderful Week at Kiawah

The property was terrific, especially if you have a large family or want to share with multiple couples. Great amenities including smart tv's , keurig coffee maker, and 7-8 bikes. There's a large pantry area and plenty of sitting room. The pool is right off of the screened in patio that includes a gas grill which we used nightly,. A/C kept the house very comfortable. Very short walk to the beach and even shorter bike ride. If there was anything to improve, the house would benefit by a second refrigerator, even if in the garage. I've been visiting Kiawah for over 30 years. Overall, this was one of my favorite places

Loved Loved Loved Flyway on Kiawah!

This home was perfect for our large three generation family. It was probably the cleanest home in our 27 years of renting with VRBO! Caroline (manager) was helpful and addressed any needs or issues we had. The kitchen was very well stocked with spices and herbs. Thanks for the two slow cookers and Keurig. The flatware was plentiful and heavy (if you have rented other homes, you know how flimsy and sparse some homes’ supplies are). The bed linens and towels were luxurious. Numerous beach towels too!! The pool was perfect and the deck always partially in the shade, which is wonderful in the hot SC summer. The nearby beach was perfect, flat, sandy and not crowded. Bikes and beach chairs added to our comfort and carefree week. This was a Perfect week in Kiawah.

Kiawah luxury home A+

Nine of us (4 siblings and spouses with our 91 year-old mother) had a wonderful stay of 6 nights (we wished we'd booked 7!). The house fit us all beautifully and comfortably, and was in fact bigger than we really needed. It is outfitted exceptionally well, from the kitchen to bathrooms to outdoor gear. We appreciated "small touches" like the plastic containers for leftover food and the fact that many cooking basics were supplied, also the plentiful beach towels, beach chairs, cooler, bikes, and cart to haul everything to the beach. We wished weather had been a bit warmer for spending time on the pool deck, and that a strong storm on our second-to-last day had not caused so many oak leaves and emerging flowers to rain down on the property! But, that is a function of the time of year we chose to come, and it in no way negatively impacted our stay. The neighborhood is quiet, and the house felt very private. All in all, we had a fantastic 6 days and would recommend this home to anyone wanting to experience the wonders of Kiawah.

Amazing property with plenty of space!

This home fit our group perfectly. 6 friends and their significant others as well as myself shared this home recently for a wedding get away. The rooms were large and accurately listed allowing for private space and individual bathrooms allowed for plenty of room for a larger group. The outdoor space and pool were seemingly much bigger than we thought based on the pictures and the large basement with garage stored our groups golf clubs nicely. Caroline was very easy to reach and responded quickly to any “beginner” questions which was a relief since this was my first time using this site to rent. Having such an easy time reaching her allowed for my nerves to be calmed and a smooth process all around. The home was well kept, had all the amenities listed and even a few extra which were a bonus. I will be recommending this house to any friends and family looking to stay in the area and will keep it pinned in my profile for our next visit!

Hubby's 60th Birthday Family Celebration

The house is absolutely beautiful! The pictures are accurate and represent the property well. We had 8 adults in our group and we were all very comfortable. Compared to similar homes we have stayed at on Kiawah, it was the best stocked yet - pots, pans, plates, spices, etc. Very well organized. And the location is excellent - short walk to the beach. Maintenance was very responsive. It rained the day we arrived and the pool was full of leaves and debris when we checked in. They cleaned it early the next morning so we enjoyed the pool. I suggest three things: (1) upgrade the furniture in the main living area with the fireplace. The current furniture just does not do justice to such a magnificent room. (2) Clean the grill and grill area. We could not use the grill - even the grill brush needs to be replaced. (3) Place blinds over the master bathroom windows. Since it faces the front of the house and is visible from the street and front door, it was very uncomfortable to shower there. These items kept me from rating it 5 star across the board. We would definitely stay again even with these suggested enhancements..

We had an amazing week at this property with 14 family members all together. The house set up was perfect with ample space for everyone. The beach is a short walk down the street where we spent the majority of our time and the pool in the backyard was so nice to have. The owners were super helpful as minor questions popped up, we couldn’t recommend this property more. We hope to be back soon!

Kitchen was well equipped and the kitchen seating was great for family meals.A few little things throughout the house need attention.Everyone loved the pool, great to hangout!!It was shaded in the late afternoon which made it extra nice. We didn’t use the pool items or extras that the owners graciously left in the garage for renters use(chairs, wagon etc).The walk to the beach was easy but longer than expected. Enjoyed our stay.

Family Vacation

We did enjoy our time on Flyway Drive however we did have some issues. The pool heater was not working, we had a problem with no hot water on the 2nd floor and a bathroom pipe broke in the master bedroom. All areas were addressed but we had to take time out of our vacation to deal with these issues. Also, the pots and pans in the kitchen were in very poor shape. We had a large group and hoped to do more cooking but the lack of reasonable cook ware made this difficult. We did try to use the gas grill but that was a challenge. A less complicated outdoor grill would be helpful !

Excellent Home!

We stayed and Vanderhorst Plantation over the holidays and had a wonderful time! Extended family of 13 and we all had comfortable rooms, private bathrooms, and plenty of space to be together or to spread out. The kitchen is well-stocked, the furniture is comfortable, the home is clean and well-appointed. It feels more like you're visiting a friend's house than staying in a home that's been furnished as a rental. Caroline was always quick to respond and incredibly easy to work with on booking, check-in, and details along the way. The location is outstanding! The property is quiet and lush and just across the street from a beach access boardwalk! Can't recommend this property enough! Thank you for sharing it with us!
