Lovely rental. My wife and our dog stayed for 5 days last minute decision. Management was very responsive, helpful and available for any concerns or questions. House is in a great location. Very convenient to the pool and access to the ocean. Just a short walk to both. Definitely will stay there again.

I gave this rental 5-stars for value and close proximity to the beach. An easy 5-minute walk to one of the nicest beaches in South Carolina. The beach extents for 10-miles. The cottage is well maintained and very comfortable. The neighborhood consists of ponds and ample wooded areas. Making it not feel like your typical congested beach town. My only suggestion is to have a few more condiments like spices and olive and cooking oil. There was only salt and pepper. Other than that I would definitely considering returning next year.

About the host

Hosted by Kiawah By Owner - Susie Oringel

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 on nearby Seabrook Island 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 and Seabrook Island in addition to our cottage. I look forward to helping you plan your vacation - Susie Oringel
