It is very close to two different beach access areas and the pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The rental agency was amazing and very organized. The house comes with all the amenities you might need, which made it easy to cook dinner or even wash a load of clothes!

Wonderful Experience

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: The rental company provided all pertinent information up front regarding our stay. The home was well maintained, and very clean upon arrival. We were just a short walk to the beach, which made it great for little kids. I contacted guest services a few times for some general information on the area, in which they were very helpful. One third night I contacted maintenance after hours due to the thermostat in the home malfunctioning. Their response was very quick, and the issue was easily resolved. This was a care free vacation for us.

Wonderful Kiawah Island Property

This past weekend was the 38th staging of the Marathon Race at Kiawah Island, and my first half marathon at Kiawah. I wanted it to be a great experience, and the property we stayed at was ideal! Hillary Harling was my contact about the property thru ESPM Property Management and my dealings with her could not have been better; even last minute parking passes were provided within minutes of requesting them!!!! As for the property itself, it is a charming 3 bdrm villa with many updated features. There were 6 adults and we felt comfortable; not like we were on top of each other. I plan to participate in the marathon again next year and will certainly consider this property unless we need an even bigger space. However, even with that as a potential issue, I will contact Hillary Harling for any of our rental needs at Kiawah Island............definitely a 5 star experience. Bill Lampley

Great location, great layout, could be a bit cleaner

We overall had a pleasant week in this unit. Below are some comments which I hope you might find helpful. First, some pros: 1. The unit is unique in that it has four bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms. This was particularly nice for our family of now 4 adult couples. 2. The unit was well-equipped with kitchen amenities and adequately equipped with bedding items. 3. We were able to gain access into the unit well before the check-in time of 4:00 pm, which is a great plus for vacationers with a carload of cold groceries! Now for the cons: 1. The listed address of ”1021 Sparrow Pond” is inaccurate and misleading. It is not an address acknowledge by any GPS system. 2. Reviews of this unit on the internet claimed that it was “dirty”. We found the level of cleanliness to be fair, but I am attaching pictures of items as an example of people’s postings on the internet. The first is a literal pile of sand beneath a rug that has to be pulled back to enter the master bedroom. The second is a picture of the mold and mildew in the shower curtain in the master bath. Mold was also very obvious in the second shower as well. image1.jpeg image2.jpeg (Unable to insert photos on this platform) Overall, our visit was good. Hopefully these comments might helpful for them to improve this unit and the service.

Good, not great

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was clean, and in a good location. The pictures are wrong though, we were counting on 2 bedrooms with twin beds (as shown in the pics) but only had 1, the rest with queen or king. We specifically chose this house for the bedroom layout for the 4 kids, but ended up having to sleep an adult on the couch to make it work. Very disappointed! Also, the oven makes the house smell like gas everytime it’s in use, so there must be a leak somewhere. The grill needs to be replaced, it barley worked. There’s not enough seating for the number of people it can sleep, either. Overall ok, not great. I would only stay here again if I needed the 4th bedroom, as there are better Sparrow Pond cottages.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall we were pleased with our rental. However not pleased with ESPM. Upon checking into our cottage - 1 BR doorknob fell off when touched. This prompted me to check the rest of the property. Only other flaw was gas grill would not ignite + no matches/lighter stick provided. Contacted the phone # - which was answered on a Sun. afternoon. Fellow stated someone would come by between 10-Noon the next day. Non one came the entire week.

Lovely Kiawah 4 bedroom with great close beach location, great layout, delightful two porches, do recommended new mattresses for the twin beds, very soft.

After vacationing 30 years at Kiawah we found this property to be nice. We had 8 people so seating was tight, but ok. The property was clean and when I requested a broom to keep up with light cleaning it was dropped off for me to use. Will be back! Thanks

The condo was in great shape, well decorated with a wrap around deck.. It felt much larger than it was.. The island itself was stunning and our condo was very close to great beach entrances and a pool and tennis club(one of many on the island). We look forward to visiting again and would definitely stay here again and would recommend this place and ESPM to anyone.

Not exactly but it worked.

I called the property manager twice with no reply. Someone did come to the house but never came back. There was only 1 key in the lock box and there was supposed to be 2. They never resolved it and did not contact me again. The space was adequate but not as large as I expected. The kitchen was small - not big enough for multiple people to be cooking together. The pots and utensils need to be replaced. They are well used and although a rental still need to be usable. We made the best of it. The towels provided were literally one per person (wash cloth, hand towel and bath) with a few bath under the sink. Thank goodness for the washer. Listing said coffee pot not keurig but it has BOTH. And although listing says beach towels provided there are NO beach towels. What I did like is that the bedrooms are in the 4 corners of the house but with doors open everyone was still together. The house was cleanish. Everyone has a different standard. The owner should consider more than just a broom - maybe a swifter wet or hand vac for light cleanup for the renters. Walk to the beach less than 5 minutes. Very private. We did sit by the pool once to enjoy the sun without the wind. The cougar golf course is literally a 4 minute walk away. All the courses were great. Strong suggestion read the paperwork you get and order food for delivery. The food store is a disaster the day of checkin. We had a total of 5 people. If I had 6 or more I would pick another house. The main bedroom had a private bath. The other 3 rooms share a small bathroom with shower. There is a powder room that was helpful but more than 6 would be tough sharing the small shower.
