Property Description
Light and spacious with beach-inspired décor and the fresh scent of saltwater wafting through the open windows, the Penthouse is, quite simply, the ideal beachfront holiday retreat.
The Penthouse at Windswept offers 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a generous floor plan, and easy access to the beach and surrounding attractions.
Whether you choose to spend the majority of your time relaxing inside with a good book or sinking your toes into the sand just steps from your front door, you’ll find the best of both worlds on the property’s balcony, which offers incredible 180-degree sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean.
Custom, Designer Interiors Almost As Stunning as the View
Though the view speaks for itself, the Penthouse’s interior is also worthy of a look, with its custom drapery, chic color palette, original oil paintings, shiplap walls, designer furniture, granite countertops, and tile and hardwood flooring throughout.
Inside, you’ll likely spend most of your time in the Penthouse’s communal spaces. With floor-to-ceiling windows, the rooms are bathed in sunshine for many hours of the day. Settle into the high-tech living room, furnished with a 60-inch smart television and soundbar.
The dining room and kitchen are easily accessible and appointed with everything you might need to whip up a favorite family meal or use this opportunity to experiment with a recipe you’ve been meaning to try.
At night, settle down in one of the villa’s cozy and beautifully decorated bedrooms. On the top floor, enjoy the superb ocean views from a king-sized bed, which is outfitted with a pillow-top mattress and the finest linens. A 60-inch flat panel television and large bathroom with a double vanity and deluxe tile shower round out the master suite.
Down the hallway, guests in the second master bedroom are also treated to exceptional views, a 60-inch smart television, and an even larger bathroom with a double vanity, deluxe tile shower, and oversized garden tub. Downstairs, the third bedroom also features a super cozy king bed, a 50-inch smart television, and an adjacent bathroom.
About Kiawah's East Beach
When you finally tear yourself away from your cozy abode, the surf and sand are mere steps away. Also within a short walking distance, find the Night Heron Park, local shopping, and lots of restaurants. For a short day trip, head to historic downtown Charleston.
The Penthouse at Windswept is one of our most popular villas. If you need additional space, check out the Breeze at Seascape or Ocean Blue at Seascape, which we’re sure you will love. In addition, our 2-bedroom villa, the Mariah, is just one floor down in the same building.

About the host
Hosted by Jeanette Lawson
About Property Managers, Shawn and Jeanette Lawson (Kiawah Island Getaways):
Shawn's family discovered Kiawah in 1978 and returned year after year for two-week vacations. In 1985 we drove our VW Bug convertible to Kiawah and Shawn introduced me to Kiawah. I remember stepping over the dune boardwalk out in front of the Kiawah Island Inn and seeing Kiawah's wide, sandy beach for the first time - it was so brilliant it practically danced before my eyes. It was during this vacation that the two of us decided to set our sights on moving to this beautiful and fascinating place permanently.
In 1988 our dreams came true and our U-Haul rattled across the Kiawah Island bridge (at that time it was nothing more than a wood-planked bridge). For the next four years we rented a 1-bedroom villa, 4251 Mariner's Watch. Shawn was so thrilled to be living on the island that he applied for the personalized South Carolina license plate 'KIAWAH' (which we still have today).
In 1992, we built our first home on the island at 134 Conifer Lane. During construction, I gave birth to our first son Benjamin - he arrived 2 months early in an ambulance outside of the Kiawah Island Fire Station.
In 2001, we purchased our first villa, a 1-bedroom, beachside Seascape and Kiawah Island Getaways was born. Once we got our feet wet with the villa rental business, it was a like a fever for us. We both really enjoyed furnishing, decorating and maintaining the villas - not to mention the new found fun of meeting and talking to all sorts of people about Kiawah. Because we really enjoy what we do, other Kiawah property owners noticed and we started managing their properties as well.
Our whole family loves Kiawah and running Kiawah Island Getaways is a true family-run business. We personally prepare each villa prior to your arrival - because we want your stay to be perfect. We want you to fall in love with Kiawah too...and we know you will.
