Response from Akers to minor problems was quick, pool was the best I have seen on Kiawah. Kitchen well stocked, walk to beach was easy. We were VERY disappointed with upstairs beds and bath. The 2nd King bedroom has no dresser OR closet and has to share a bathroom with the bunk room. There are two sinks and two toilets upstairs for 8 people.

We are sorry to hear of any disappointment in the home. We do want to clarify that this configuration is shown in the pictures of the property, as well as written in the description of the home. If you feel there is a way to more clearly display this, please feel free to reach out and let us know.
Perfect house to get away! Nicely stocked kitchen, every appliance and dish you can think of. Beautiful decor and outdoor patio was stunning. Nestled among the tress, you don’t even know you have neighbors. Short walk to beach - which we did daily. Also rented bikes, which is a must on Kiawah. We had a couple issues with smoke alarm beeping and some bedding issues, but rental company was very responsive and addressed quickly. The only criticism we had was that the comforters on a couple beds were musty and stained on inside - i did advise rental company - so hopefully that gets resolved. But I would definitely rent here again. And highly recommend this property.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback of the property. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay! We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for your next trip to Kiawah.
This house was amazing. We have small kids (1-3) and have never been able to relax like we could at this home. The pool and short walk to the beach made it a dream come true. We will be back for many more trips at this home.

Lovely house shame about the pool
The house was fantastic, no complaints about that. We just have an issue that the pool was not heated at all despite being the main reason we chose the property. Despite numerous calls to the property management company they were unable to fix this issue and refunded Us only a tiny amount. If we had known the pool was to be unusable we would of chosen another property without a pool at a fraction of the price. With us having to fly later out in the day we had hoped there would be somewhere we could leave our bags but once again the property management team had zero flexibility with this- not even reserving one bedroom that we could use for a quick shower. Given the amount we had spent on the property we were pretty disappointed with some of the service aspects of the house. The house was amazing and we have no complaints about that!

We are sorry to hear of your continued disappointment. As advised throughout your stay and in conversations after, the pool cannot be heated. We also do not advertise the pool as being able to be heated. You did purchase spa heat for your stay, and the unit was unfortunately not able to be reset properly to be used during your three days. It was for this reason that we issued a refund for the amount of the spa heat. We certainly understand the disappointment in not being able to use the pool, however, regrettably cannot control the temperatures of the water when external temperatures are lower. Had this been inquired about prior to booking, our team certainly would have advised that April tends to be cooler and if use of a pool is required, you would want to book one that is able to be heated. Additionally, we do see that you requested a late departure during your stay. We are always happy to assist when we are able in this regard. As explained at the time of your inquiry, we did advise that we had another guest arriving on the same day and required the full amount of time to be able to appropriately clean the home prior to their arrival and thus would maintain our advised departure time of 10am. We are sorry that you feel you did not receive adequate service. We do feel that we explained all aspects consistently and thoroughly throughout the process and provided the products and services as advertised.
Great property and awesome location. The house was perfect for our needs. Communication with property mgmt group was quick and easy. Will use again.

Perfect location, fabulous home and amazing service by Ellis Ackers!
Great location on the island. House was clean. Checkout/Check in process was easy and seamless. Pool and spa were great! Only complaint is no garage access. I understand it. Just made it a little more difficult with kids bikes and gear to keep organized. Would stay again!
This is a wonderful comfy house with a nice large pool and lots of privacy. It is a short walk to the beach and no roads need to be crossed so it is great for small children. The screened porch is a lovely added feature . We will be back!

This property is beautiful and we fully enjoyed our experience. Some things that could have improved our stay-when I asked the rental company about having a car or not, they said not to get one because their was no parking on the island. We did get one, thankfully, because we would have been stranded otherwise. Also, at 2:00 pm on the Saturday of our stay, the pool boy show up unannounced. We had to get out of the pool to let him clean - during our paid vacation time. One of the bikes we rented showed up broken, and they refused to give us a refund.

Thank you for your feedback. First, please allow us to apologize for any misunderstanding or miscommunication regarding recommendations for having a car. Mostly, renting one is personal preference for what guests are wanting to do during their trip. Many of our guests find that it is not necessary if they are not planning on leaving or moving around the island, but many guests also enjoy the flexibility of having a vehicle. I can advise that all of our homes with a private pool have weekly cleaning. This is to ensure that all of our guests have a clean and safe pool during their stay. We are sorry if this interfered with your party utilizing the feature. I have passed your comments regarding the beach gear to our partners at VayKGear for them to handle as they feel necessary.

Overall very pleased with the house and especially the pool area. Proximity to the beach excellent. I do have some concerns. The cushions on the swings and kitchen furniture were dirty and stained (not very appetizing.) I think for the overall cost of the house these should be replaced annually. an upstairs bedroom had no closet or drawers in which to place clothing. Again, this seems very odd for this type of house. The upstair bathrooms also seemed very cheap.

This is our second stay at 97 Jackstay- and we enjoyed it even more this visit. The home’s interior has been updated a bit and the beds are super comfy. Our family enjoys the cute bunk room for the kids, the extra large pool with hot tub and that it is a quick walk to the beach. We also enjoy the peace and tranquillity of being in the Vanderhost portion of Kiawah. We have rented from Akers Ellis a dozen times and have always been impressed with their service and professionalism.

Great home. Excellent location. Extremely quiet atmosphere. Close to beach and golf. The house had everything you would need in the kitchen. The property was clean and well maintained.
Wonderful property, close to beach, secluded, with a beautiful deck, pool and hot tub. The weather was fantastic; but the house is so large that even if the weather was bad we would have had a great time. Great kitchen and outdoor dining table. Not a negative thought or suggestion for improvement.

House and location were great minus a few bumps, like the front door lock didn’t work, numerous light bulbs were out, black mold in upstairs bathroom and the freezer was dirty. These things did not stop us from enjoying the house and area! Super close to beach, great pool! Management came quickly to fix door lock. Wish the weather had been a little better but that’s summer in the south! We all loved the screen porch and swing too!

We really enjoyed every aspect of the property. The house was great, the kitchen was well equipped, and the pool was outstanding. Proximity to the beach was very good, and we made good use of the opportunity to get bikes and a cart for our use through the property manager. We had some issues with locks on two of the rear doors, but the manager responded promptly and corrected the issues as well as could be done in a short period of time.

Awesome Week on Kiawah Island
Our 27th multi generation Family Vacation was a great success. The house is beautiful, well appointed, great place for a large family to be together. Dining room was awesome, as the table was large enough for our party of 11. The pool provided lots of fun, large enough for everyone, without being crowded. Also just a short walk to the beach. There was a real quality grill on the deck, we make good use of. Lots of seating on the deck also, along with a very nice screened porch. All was good. Would definitely stay here again.
