Reviewer Comments:
I have rented many different houses on Kiawah over the years and I would call this house "decent." It would benefit from a good sweep of the place with an eye to organization and TLC. The gutters leak outside and some of the furnishings definitely appear to be hand-me-downs while others are higher end & in better shape. They need to add some additional bedding for winter guests as several of us were a bit cold at night under only a light coverlet. All pillows and mattresses should be in zippered cases for better hygiene. The kitchen has a poor layout and is extremely disorganized but we felt it had most everything you would need. We love the Preserve area but this house's view is nothing special. The use of the elevator was a plus--especialy for an elderly family member. Beach gear credit was nice and we enjoyed the rental bikes. We paid the extra to heat the hot tub and that was a definite plus. The pool is beautiful and big and would be a great feature in the summer. Parents need beware that the safety fence/rail does not extend along the back edge, below which is a 15-20 foot drop. There are many gorgeous homes on Kiawah to rent. This house is billed as a 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath home and it's technically true. However, what is not made clear and what is very poorly illustrated is the fact that one of the full baths is OUTSIDE in the pool house. This bath is not heated/cooled and is therefore pretty much unusable during cooler months. The upstairs has 3 bedrooms all sharing one very small hall bath. This was a bit of a challenge for our group of 4 adult couples and 3 children. Might work well for a different sort of group but definitely awkward for unrelated adults to share a bathroom. We feel that should be front and center in the description of the home--and likely it should be discounted in terms of rent, as well.
