About this property

Second-floor villa with great lagoon views - steps from the beach

Summary:
Mariner's Watch

The Space:
You'll be only 150 yards from a fantastic Kiawah beach in a second-floor Mariners Watch villa featuring a screened porch with views of a lagoon! Start your morning with a fresh cup of coffee and your favorite novel on the bench swing out on the patio. You'll love the tranquil nature sounds you hear from the lagoon mixed with the gentle rhythm of the ocean surf. The interior is open and homey, with lots of natural light and a welcoming atmosphere. Use the kitchen for cooking a romantic dinner for two or a hearty lunch for a full day of sun and sand. Snuggle up on the sofa with someone you love to enjoy your favorite shows on the cable TV, then head out for a moonlight walk along the shoreline.

Cougar Point and Turtle Point Golf Courses are less than three miles away if you need to get in some great golfing. If you're in town to visit the East Beach Conference Center, it is less than one mile away. Foodies can try out some local fare at favorites such as Hege's, less than five miles away, or Loggerhead Grill, just under one mile away. Night Heron Park Nature Center is only a mile away for animal lovers to enjoy. You can plan a boating adventure at Bohicket Marina, around five miles away, or go farther into historic downtown Charleston approximately 25 miles away, for a day of pirate tours, art exhibits, live music, restaurants, history tours, and lots of family fun.

This condo was the ideal spot for a relaxing getaway. The location couldn’t have been better—close to the beach, yet still peaceful and quiet. The space had everything I needed, from a well-stocked kitchen to comfortable furnishings. It was clean, cozy, and felt like a home away from home. I left feeling refreshed and would absolutely return!

Great Location

Overall, great stay in Kiawah and we had a pleasant stay for the weekend. The bathroom is tiny but we knew that going in. The check in and check out process was very easy. I would recommend replacing the bedroom carpet as I felt it was really dirty. The bathroom could use a little TLC as well. other than that, we had a great stay.

Located just steps from the beach with amazing biking trails and natural beauty around every turn. The value was great for the location although it's a little dated.

Good location

The location of the villa was wonderful. The villa itself is very dated and the cleaning company was in the villa for less than 30 minutes. There were dirty dishes in the cabinets when we went to use them.

Cozy Condo

This is beautiful, cozy condo that was perfect for a romantic weekend get away. The condo was just perfect for too. The screened in balcony was a wonderful place foe breakfast. Beach access was right across the street, and there are several adventures on the island. But it is also 30-45 minutes to downtown Charleston if you want to have a great day that turns into an evening put.

This unit is a little newer/nicer than many Kiawah rental units. Still somewhat old, but it was perfectly clean and everything worked correctly. Well stocked with dishes etc.

Peaceful retreat

The villa was a peaceful retreat located within walking distance to the beach and the porch was adjacent to the lagoon. There was a problem with the garbage disposal, and there weren't any sheets or blankets for the pull out sofa. All in all I would highly recommend this location.

Perfect weekend getaway

This condo was everything we needed for a long weekend. It was perfect for two people. It is small but I didn’t plan to cook on such a short trip. Super clean. A short walk to the gorgeous beach! The porch swing was awesome. I drank coffee on the swing and listened to the birds in the morning while watching the wildlife in the lagoon. Definitely will go again!

May Visit

Although a nice villa, the sofa is very old and uncomfortable. There is minimal living room lightning and the bathroom ceiling is peeling. It is close to the beach which is a plus. We have spent many vacations in this unit going back to 2005 but it is in need of updates.

Small condo great location

Loved the location. The condo had enough plates and silverware cups towels. However the baseboards fan and the bedroom could have used a good dusting. they clean the countertops but obviously don't do deep cleaning. we stayed here with two small children and it was almost too small this would be better suited for two people. Location was great close to the beach and the pool lots of places to walk and ride bikes.

Girls long weekend

Wonderful weather for an October getaway but the spectacular views on this property added SO much more to our long weekend on the beach. This was my 1st time ever looking for/getting a VACA and was surprised at the added $ for fees / taxes to the total cost. On entering the place it smelled musty ( maybe put those car vent air fresheners in the air conditioner vents...just a suggestion) Was beyond pleased with the space, location, and surroundings.

Kiawah

The place was very clean. It is nicely located and I would highly recommend it. The fan and light in the bedroom did not work. I text Vacasa to let them know. Nothing was done. I did not call however .It might have been fixed then. But I learned texting Vacasa is a waste.

A great place to stay!

We stayed three nights at this location. The condo was upstairs, had a balcony, a washer and dryer and everything you would need to have a pleasant stay. Plenty of blankets, pillows, bedding and a well appointed kitchen. We cooked all of our meals in and enjoyed the balcony for all dining! This place exceeded our expectations! We could walk to the beach within a few minutes. We had our five year old with us and set up the large closet as his bedroom since he was not sure about sleeping on the pullout couch. A clean, pleasantly decorated, well stocked place to stay and the property managers were gracious and had good information. There was a snag when we were checking in and it was taken care of promptly and efficiently. Not right on the beach but so close, who cares!

Roaches and issues with Vacasa

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Our only issue was with not getting the park pass sent to us and having to contact Vacasa regarding this issuw. Then there was the incorrect information in our welcome email regarding having two entry codes to be sent to us when there is actually only one code for this unit. Thos info should be updated for future guests. Also there were two dead roaches found in the unit.
