We stayed at this property in 2020 and it was immaculate and newly renovated/refreshed. It was beautifully furnished and the kitchen was wonderfully appointed. It’s an easy walk or bike to the beach and the small pool was a boon during that pandemic summer. We were so happy, we booked again for the same property this year. A year can make a big difference. The house had not been well-cleaned upon check in; Akers Ellis responded immediately and had cleaners come out the next day to clean the bathrooms, kitchens, etc.. The bedspreads, pillow shams, household rugs, and dining room chairs could all use a good cleaning. The washing machine was so filthy that we actually had to clean it by hand before using it. A number of things weren’t working - busted gas line on the grill, rickety door on the ice maker....To their credit, Akers Ellis was incredibly responsive each time we called...and we called a lot. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and will continue our annual summer pilgrimage to Kiawah, however, we definitely won’t rent this house again.
