The House was great, but I asked for the pool to be heated and was charged 499- apparently the heater fan needed to be replaced- I was not told ahead of time and requested a total refund- hasn't happened yet

This was a beautiful property in an excellent location. The house has recently been renovated which was a peasant surprise when we checked in. One negative was that there was no type of instructions left for the pool or how to handle garbage. The outside of the home could have been cleaner, lots of cobwebs and debris. Otherwise had a wonderful stay, I agree with other reviews that twin beds in 2 bedrooms was not ideal for adults. Look forward to maybe renting again next year as the property manager indicated that they plan on purchasing new furniture which will be a wonderful upgrade. Short walk to the beach and bike trails.

Nice visit and very responsive communication with management

We had an overall nice experience. Only 1 primary bedroom with King bed. Disappointed the other bedroom with Queen bed, with en suite bathroom was a metal frame bed that was squeaky. The other 3 bedrooms had to share a single bathroom-that's 4 twins, 1 full size which accommodated our 5 children to 1 small bathroom. Please upgrade the Queen bed to a king wood bed-framed bed, so 2 families can feel like the cost is worth the accommodations. House needs serious spider-web and bug cleaning. Top of sliders and recessed areas have bugs and webs. Windows need a good cleaning if you want to see out of the kitchen windows. It was a pleasant stay, but for 2 families it was a compromise to split up the rooms. Would be nice to have an ice machine added since the fridge produces very little in the door. Again, overall the house was nice, but needs some love. Management was responsive and wonderful!!! Thank you.

Fantastic Location, great layout, wear and tear.

This was a good property, great location and perfect layout for a big family or group. Close to the beach and not too far from anything really in Kiawah. The property had more wear and tear than expected. The stairs in the front need to be replaced and some of the interior needs to be upgraded/replaced in a couple of the bathrooms, bedrooms and living area. Kitchen in good shape and serviceable for large groups. Pool deck and screened in porch are pretty worn as well. All very functional, but need love.
