This was such a lovely unit with a fabulous view! The kitchen was well appointed, the bedrooms were relaxing, and the living room furniture was comfy and cozy! The location was especially notable. We were able to bike and walk to The Nest every day where we had many meals, played in the art studio and nature center.

The location is just a few steps to the beach, so carrying items back and forth is easy. The sand dunes block some of the ocean view, being on the first floor, but if you have young children, the first floor is very convenient. The kitchen and Living room area is very large, which works great with a large family. You may want to check out the prices when booking. There is use of the Heron Park playground and Activity Center, but not the pool. There were beach chairs,sand toys, etc to use, which was great. There are no baby items at this house, so we left our two pack n plays for future renters to use. No guarantee they will still be there. A beautiful home to enjoy the quiet beaches. Highly recommend!

Annual Kiawah Trip

We have stayed here twice before. Great kitchen and living space. Love the bunk beds in one bedroom for friends of our kids. Wonderfully large kitchen table for puzzles. Love the view and proximity to beach. It’s bright and airy and beachy.

Perfect for our group of 6.,

This is our second stay at this same Mariners Watch Villa. We highly recommend this rental. Lovely updated decor that looked every bit as lovely as it did on our last stay 2 years ago. The villa is spacious and comfortable. The reservation and check in process went without a hitch.

Wonderful Cottage!

The cottage/villa was as promised and better. The ocean views from the main living space and outside porch were outstanding. The layout, furnishings and amenities of the property had no shortcomings. Access to the beach was quick. Being on the first floor meant you could walk out the rear of the unit and be on the boardwalk quickly. We look forward to another visit.

perfect location and very spacious

Stayed in this condo summer of 2014 and loved it. My favorite activity was to sit and eat on the deck. It was well maintained, clean, and a very private location. Very convenient to the beach access. We loved it so much we are coming back to stay there again this year in August. We love the added bunk beds in one of the guest rooms as well as the changes made to the master bathroom. The additional media/office room was a bonus with the twin pull out sofa which allowed our teenage son to have his own little area away from his other brothers- it was like having a fourth bedroom.

Thank you so much for your kind review, we love to see how our guests like the property and of course are excited to have families return each year! We are looking forward to your stay with us in August!

My 2018 summer vacation at 4202 Mariners Eatch

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great week, weather was perfect and the condo was very nicely appointed. Love the way they had expanded the family room by removing the screened in porch and including the area in the family room. We had a great ocean view and easy access to the boardwalk and ocean. The owners had also left some surf boards that the boys enjoyed and sand chairs that we used several times. Condo was very clean with plenty of room for all. Loved the ice machine and the water dispenser in the refrigerator. Really enjoyed the kitchen remodel, it gave plenty of room for cooking and we ate most of our meals at the extended counter with the bar stools while watching the ocean, which never gets old! We had a great week.

An Overall Awesome Spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It's hard to beat this view and convenience to the beach. Hop, skip, and a jump from the beach boardwalk entrance. Wonderful panoramic views from inside and out. They have made some smart upgrades that make the stay quite enjoyable, specifically the kitchen area. The folks at ESPM were very nice and responsive when we reached out with questions/concerns. The only knock would be the bathrooms are a bit outdated but I understand why the owner would hold off on that type of investment. I think VRBO should reevaluate their fees...cleaning and service fee was 22% of the rental cost, a bit egregious when coupled with 15% tax.
