Absolutely AMAZING!!!
This house is BEAUTIFUL and in the BEST location!! 3-5 minute walk to the beach down a gorgeous bike path! We biked a lot of kiawah and I really loved the scenery of their bike path the most. The house was spotlessly clean & beautiful! All of the bedrooms are super big and almost all of them have king beds, which is a huge plus! The house owner was kind and super responsive and helpful when we had any questions! We also LOVED the pool! It’s beautiful and I also loved that it was salt water so there wasn’t any chlorine smell. The kids and adults were both obsessed with the pool!
We had many toddlers and babies with us and it felt very safe for them all! They also had a high chair and pack n play we could use, which was a huge help!
Overall, the whole experience was fun and beautiful! Everyone loved the trip and I couldn’t say enough positive things about the house! Such a great time! We will be back :)

Perfect Beach House!
This was my fifth visit to Kiawah with a large group, and this house exceeded our expectations. The layout, pool, and location were ideal, and the included chairs and beach items were a fantastic perk. The kitchen was well-stocked, and the two dining areas made it easy for our group to enjoy home-cooked meals together. The beach is just a 5-minute walk or a 2-minute bike ride away via the nearby path. Communication with the owner was seamless, making our stay even more enjoyable.

Kiawah Elegance - A Little Slice of Heaven!
We have stayed in dozens of properties in Kiawah over the last 30 years and Kiawah Elegance is an extraordinary property. From the minute you walk through the front door you feel the care that the owners have taken to create a warm, thoughtful and inviting environment for their guests. The owners' attention to detail is exceptional and the house is equipped with everything a large family needs to gather together. We intend to return again and again! Congratulations to the owners on creating a truly memorable home.

Gorgeous New Mid-Island Home
This is a beautiful, new, 7 BR home at the east end of Glen Abbey in the Vanderhorst neighborhood. It is just a short stroll or bike ride down Boardwalk 32 to the beach. The floor plan and décor are well thought out with lots of room for guests to spread out. There is a refreshing pool and relaxing screened-in porch. The amenities include a well-appointed kitchen and butler’s pantry, dual washers and driers and a nice collection of “beach toys.” It was a memorable setting for this summer’s family gathering.

Outstanding property
Our family has been coming to Kiawah for over 10 years. We have stayed in a variety of different homes
(including beachfront) and this by far was the best home. The owner is very kind, responsive, and a great communicator. We loved all aspects of the house, especially the screened-in porch, the upgrades in the kitchen, and the comfortable beds. This house conveniently backs up to the bike path that takes you directly to the beach. We booked for next year quickly!

We have rented many Kiawah properties over the years, and Kiawah Elegance was the absolute best. Erin, the host, was Incredible, and the most gracious owner we’ve had; made sure we had everything we needed, was very helpful with me whenever I contacted her with questions, and responded immediately. She went above and beyond to make sure we had things necessary for our four month old grandson. Kitchen had the most extensive assortment of cooking, baking, etc. that we had seen. All appliances were top notch. The 2nd floor space really made the trip, and allowed the teenagers to have their separate space. Thank you Erin for a wonderful week!!

Wow!
We had a group of 13 stay at this house last week and I honestly can't say enough good things about the property. The house is beautiful and fantastic in so many ways. The interior of the house, furniture, appliances, etc are all immaculate and extremely well done. Bed linens are amazing and super comfortable, tv/sonos was easy to use, and we had more than enough space.
Close to the beach as advertised, pool was great since it was heated and we used it a lot
The bike set up was super easy (use Alligator Bikes) and fantastic to have access to. Grill was great and easy to use.
Kiawah is a phenomenal place that is great for families and we really enjoyed out time there. Having this property as our home base for the week was something we will never forget!
