Peaceful view, attractive and comfortable, clean and completely stocked villa. Bit of a treck to cart rented beach equipment to beach for older couple, however, and unfortunately.

Thank you for your feedback. We're happy to hear that your stay was enjoyable. We apologize if there was any confusion regarding the beach gear being delivered to the property vs being on the beach already as the unit is about a 5 minute walk to the beach.

A great value for the money. We had a great week and the condo was so relaxing with a beautiful view. The condo was a 5 minute walk to the beach and just a short hop to any of the golf courses. I would definitely recommend staying here and will myself next trip to Charleston/Kiawah.

Property was in a great location. Quick bike ride over the bridge and you are at the beach. Kitchen is well stocked. Rooms were comfortable. My only suggestion would be that the condo needs a thorough cleaning. Floor is gritty from sand, patio doors need windex, and the furniture is musty smelling.Over all we enjoyed our stay.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was very nice. We enjoyed our time at the condo. The king size mattress was very uncomfortable. The mattress needs replaced. Also the sheets were stained and did not fit well on the mattress. I know that this is a bit critical but I am sure you want to know how to make the stay a more pleasant one.

Response from VrboOwner on 4 Jul, 2023
Thank you for your feedback! We are sorry to hear that you experienced issues during your stay. We will certainly advise our housekeeping partners of the issues with the sheets so they are aware for future guests. I do not see that this was reported during your stay. We are always happy to address any issues or concerns as they are reported to our team. In regards to the mattress, I do not see that this is an issue reported be other renters throughout this long as busy season. For this reason, we can only narrow it down to personal preference. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay despite these circumstances!

We spent 4 days in Kiawah in December and enjoyed every second. Our rental was beautiful and clean. The location is ideal. Minutes from beach on foot or by bicycle and steps away from Sanctuary Hotel. Akers Ellis was so responsive to all her needs and questions. I highly recommend this unit to rent through Akers Ellis.

Loved the location, but was disappointed with the condition of the property. The sheets on one of the twin beds had a large stain on it. Several light bulbs were out throughout the unit and there are spots on the wall that have been patched, but not painted. The deck was covered in webs and had clusters of spider sacs on the railings.

We booked the property just over a week before the trip. Everything was smooth for checking in and out. Due to the pandemic, we cooked most of our meals at the property. Unlike other properties we considered, this one had everything we needed in the kitchen and made for a very easy and safe trip.

This was our first experience with Kiawah Island. The condo was precisely as listed with beautiful views of the pond out your back door, tastefully and warmly decorated, easy access to bike trails and beach! Loved our stay!!
Kiawah is such a fabulous place to visit! Miles of bike trails and lovely flat beaches. The unit was great. Cute decorations, pretty view of the lagoon, well-stocked kitchen. This was the perfect space for our trip. The walk to the beach is about 8-10 minutes, but it’s a pretty and easy walk. If you have a lot of beach gear, renting a cart is probably a good idea. At low tide the beach is expansive, and there’s plenty of room to spread out. At high tide, the closet beach access might be a little crowded for Covid-19 days, but there are lots of places on the beach that are less populated than boardwalk 22 (the closest one to the unit). Also the rental agency was fantastic. We loved our time here and would happily come again!

Place was exactly as described if not better. All positive reviews are spot on. Great location, well-furnished, comfortable everything, great view, better than expected amenities (books, games, playing cards), communication about booking was seamless and prompt, what more can be said. Would stay there again.
In town for the Marathon. Great location in terms of being close to the town market and race start/finish.
Property manager very response to questions and requests. I would seek this location for my return trips to Kiawah.

This was our 2nd visit to this villa. It is very nicely decorated. We had breakfast on the porch every morning. The wildlife view around the lagoon was nice too! The deer visited every morning . You can’t beat the location either. Akers Ellis was great with all communication.
Villa was lovely and clean, beds comfortable, and screened porch delightful for early morning coffee and evening meals. Kitchen was wonderfully equipped.

Great stay
This rental looks just like the photos. There are plenty of towels, the quality was not great, but this isn't my personal home, so not unexpected. The upstairs neighbors were extremely loud, but only during awake hours, just annoying. That is condo living though. There was an alligator right at the water, that my boys named. Super cool having him chilling out right there. Don't be stupid people, leave him alone and he will leave you alone. Lol. Aside from dumb neighbors and not the softest towels, everything else was perfect. Bedding/sheets unlike the towels were super soft Plenty of kitchen ware. Everything was super clean. Parking was totally fine, and we drive an oversized vehicle. The actual area is awesome with lots to do. Definitely a 5. Thank you for a great stay.
