Highly satisfied!

Amazing views and comfortable amenities. Reverse floor plan is awkward at first but serves to frame in the ocean setting during meal prep and outdoor dining.

Vacation View

This is a spectacular location in a less densely populated area of the island. The views from the second floor are amazing. Starting and ending the day there was my favorite. Bike riding on the beach as a family was incredible. And of course that doesn’t even touch on world class golf!

Beautiful views of Ocean Course and the water

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The views are unmatched! Spent lots of time on porch enjoying the gorgeous views. All 5 bedrooms have their own bath. For a house this size, the kitchen is just ok. We were cooking for 12 and it was tough. If yo don’t plan on poking it’ll be just fine. Nice big dining table for meals, cards and games.

Beautiful house and location perfection but maintenance issues

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is beautiful and in the perfect location but unfortunately has not been maintained properly. Our stay started with a refrigerator repairman and AC tech showing up on the first day. Issues that obviously existed before we checked in and should have been resolved. The main refrigerator did not cool properly our entire stay and the freezer also had issues including a broken ice drawer. We had to use a smaller old refrigerator downstairs and transfer all of our groceries up and down stairs, not to mention that the working fridge was old with a broken door that was difficult to shut. I let the rental company know about the refrigerator not cooling and nothing was done about it until 9:30am on checkout day when someone arrived unannounced and started disassembling the refrigerator while we were still cleaning the house and packing for checkout. In addition to not having a working refrigerator on the same floor as the kitchen our entire stay, the AC on the bedroom level was not working the first day, the top oven was broken, the fan over the range was broken, there was a curtain rod falling off the wall in the master, the railing outside were loose with some missing bolts, and all the doors were either broken, unlockable or extremely difficult to open. It’s too bad that this house has so many maintenance issues because it could be amazing.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at Kiawah ... house looks out over #12 green and #13 tee box of the Ocean Course with #15 fairway and ocean view in the distance ... simply a beautiful view ... home is dated ... no stereo system (at least for guests) pool tile is crumbling and elevator system not working (which is important when the main living area is on the second floor) ... we regularly visit Kiawah and while the home is wonderfully located within easy walk to the beach and excellent biking .. the house needs some love

Disabled visitors should reconsider

Views are stunning. Property is beautiful and very clean, but needs some love. Kitchen is well stocked. Beds are comfy and each has a private bath. HOWEVER, property states that it is wheelchair friendly with an elevator…a useless, broken elevator. My 65 yo husband had to carry our disabled 33yo quadriplegic daughter up the steep front stairs. She was only able to access the first level. No wheelchair accessible bath on that level either. We had to shower her OUTSIDE using the pool shower. She wasn’t able to access the main level for meals in the dining room with the rest of the family. ESPM did offer another house, but we were already settled into this one. The thought of moving was overwhelming. Because of the elevator issue, we only took her out once during the week. Spa was also broken. Spent the first three days texting and speaking with ESPM. Spa was finally fixed. For $18,000, things should have been operating properly. Won’t be returning or renting from this company again.

Best porch on kiawah

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have rented this home 4 times in late summer. The porch off the kitchen is the reason I keep coming back. Dinners on the large table looking over the ocean are our favorite tradition. Updates to some bathrooms, the pool and driveway are much appreciated and look great. However this year too many important things were not working. Elevator was not usable and in this house with kitchen 2 tall floors up, made lugging groceries very hard. Several chairs around the dining table outside were broken or missing. 2 burners were out on the range and the vent has not worked for 2 years. I hope this year will see some attention to appliances and some love to the outside living spaces. That said, this house is still my favorite. It has a large common space, great outdoor space, very comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms without the ridiculously large ostentatious bathrooms that Kiawah homes seem to love. We cook a lot and find the kitchen space convenient (when the appliances work). I love the small kitchen downstairs for overflow. And the spice cabinet is well stocked. The location is ideal if you enjoy quieter parts of Kiawah. Beach is 1/4 mile walk through the golf course and we regularly see alligators and deer.

Beautiful Kiawah home on Ocean course overlooking the Atlantic

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Four adult couples rented this beautiful home the last week of September to celebrate a couple of the girls 60th birthdays. Overall, we had a wonderful stay, and the home was in wonderful condition. The location is magnificent with the ocean course right side our back door and the Atlantic in the background. There is plenty of room for everyone to enjoy each other‘s company on both the first and second floors. The kitchen is well stocked and even has many spices for occasional indoor cooking. The outdoor decks and swimming pool are very beautiful. This home is perfectly suited for Adults where you don’t want or need to go to the beach every day. Beach access can be very cumbersome. If you plan to bring young children and go to the beach often I could see this as a major pain where you need to zigzag through the golf course to get to the beach. Not terribly far but it is certainly not a five minute ordeall. It is right on the main road which means the bike paths are right outside your front door. If your goal is to enjoy a large home that is well maintained and located right on the bike path with a magnificent rear/ocean view , where direct beach access is not important then this home is perfect for you. One last comment, we had to call management a couple of times for some small things and their response was immediate! Very good service from that perspective.

Beautiful View....Needs Attention

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is breathtakingly spectacular which translates to the rental price. That being said, there are many things on the inside and outside that need attention. The toilet in the master bathroom backed-up causing raw sewage to back-up into the neighboring bath tub and shower. Water from the toilet leaked into the downstairs bedroom...through the chandelier. An outdoor dining chair collapsed while someone was sitting on it. Requests had to be made to have the overflowing garbage removed. The pool desperately needed to be vacuumed. For such a beautiful home, much of the furniture and decor was old and tired.

If you’re looking for one of the best views on the island and one of the nicest outdoor areas, this house is for you. If you’re looking for an updated house with a great kitchen, this wouldn’t be the best choice. The weather was perfect our entire 9 day stay and it was one of our best vacations ever!
