Terrific home!

We visit Kiawah every year and always try to stay in Indigo Point (which is where this home is located). Proximity to sanctuary, beaches, parks is ideal with a short bike ride. Home was as advertised, and we would love to stay here again!

Dream Home Not A Dream

We were very disappointed in our stay at this home and the PM company’s care. The overall cleanliness of the home was not good-there was dust, bugs, and animal hair all throughout the floors of the home, including a bug in my son’s bed. The deck outside and furniture was covered in pine needles. The cookware at the home was absolutely not up to par - there was 1 non-stick frying pan, no kitchen tongs (only grilling), there was literally only one sharp knife and one oven mitt. Upon arrival to the home the shampoo, conditioner, body gel, and most important, hand soap dispensers were not full, and the hand soap dispensers were actually filled with water (for all but 1). The PM did bring at my request amenity soaps, etc. and dropped them at the front porch. I told them not to worry about coming to refill them as we did not want to be inconvenienced yet I got a text a day later from the PM saying that Layne would be coming by to refill them - we were about to go golfing and were inconvenienced by his visit. During the visit he realized there was no hand soap for refill; he left and there was no communication/follow-up on getting hand soap. The Viking stove oven was finicky and not working properly and we elected not to have it repaired as we did not want to be inconvenienced again. The day we were departing the home there was a small leak from the refrigerator through the freezer and onto the kitchen floor. For the price we paid and what we got we don’t recommend anyone stay here!

beautiful setting but could use some upkeep

This is a beautiful home with a great pool. However the gutters should be cleaned as the pine needles were overflowing into the pool. We could also tell pets live in the home as it could have been a little cleaner. Also disclosing that Information, specifically that cats have been in the house, would be helpful to those who have allergies.

Ehhh, dated and uncomfortable beds and furniture.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than 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: We left 9 days early. Too smelly, too uncomfortable. Dated, not up to Kiawah standards.
