Ranches in Kiawah Island

"If you’ve ever wondered what the Motel 6 of Kiawah Island might look like, this place is probably the closest thing.Kiawah itself is incredible. This property, unfortunately, is not.During our stay, a 60-lb glass shower door came off the track and fell while I was in the shower. Thankfully no one was hurt, but that’s obviously a serious safety concern.The AC also went out twice, which made things especially challenging traveling with three young kids.The house has a strong musty smell, like a damp, old towel that never really dries out.The pots and pans are heavily used with the coating gone, and the utensils feel like they were pieced together from a few different junk drawers over the years. I’ve honestly had more functional setups using camping gear.Overall, the property feels tired, poorly maintained, and not well cared for.From a management standpoint, communication was inconsistent. While responses did come at times, the issues we experienced were not fully resolved during our stay, and we were told compensation would be provided, which did not end up happening.The important thing to know is that there are hundreds of homes on Kiawah that look very similar in photos.I would recommend choosing one of those instead.Kiawah is a great place to visit — I would just encourage others to carefully consider their options when booking."

"Apartment has a nice view but needs maintenance. Toe molding in kitchen is not nailed down, refrigerator does not dispense water, needs a filter. Blow dryer in the back bathroom is a fire hazard. Plug was melted. Ceiling in great room has cracks. That said, there is a great deal of construction and renovation going on so these small items would probably be addressed. Beautiful beach and gorgeous maritime forest atmosphere makes it so worth it. Monique very attentive and extra helpful with getting me pointed in the right direction to find the apartment. "

"Our family had a wonderful stay. The property was beautiful, well maintained, and very clean. Sitting on the deck overlooking the gorgeous beach was serene. Julie was very communicative and helpful. We hope to be back soon. Highly recommend. "

"It was perfect!"

"Host was excellent at communicating ! The villa is nicely decorated! Bed so comfy. Loved the porch , felt like I was in a tree house watching nature. Loved it! "

"Great experience "

"The condo was in a nice, quiet location with a beautiful view of the ocean. It was a good value, but the decor needs a refresh and the bed was not very comfortable. "

"Host always responsive, place is clea and comfortable. All appliances, heat plumbing work as they should. What could any want for more?"

"Room and staff was great!"
