This waterfront Shipwatch Villa is located in the West Beach Village at the front of Kiawah Island and features a fantastic ocean view right from a smartly decorated living area. Spread out over the comfortable couch to enjoy some good shows with the large flatscreen TV then take advantage of the full kitchen to whip up a little whimsey for your guests to enjoy over the outdoor deck dining table. While you're out there, be sure to take in the natural surroundings because the ocean, palm trees, and dunes are all within view.

What's nearby:
You'll be within steps of the fantastic Kiawah Island beach where you'll find over 10 miles of shoreline to walk or bike upon. If you're feeling like some local fare, you'll find great restaurants right on the beach such as The Ocean Room, Jasmine Porch At the Sanctuary, and Loggerhead Grill, all less than three miles away. Take the kids out to explore miles of paved bike and nature trails that wind about the island. Downtown Charleston is only 25 miles away, where the family can check out pirate tours, the Gibbes Museum of Art, landscaped gardens, and live concerts. And if you want something a little more local, take a short trip into Freshfields Village (about 2 miles) where you’ll be able to shop for local produce, explore cute boutiques, and lose yourself in the local culture.

Nice view of ocean - very clean
The deck looks out over the ocean and you can hear the waves when you sleep. Very clean and orderly. No beach accessories and the layout is a little strange in that the windows in the living room dont open and the deck is off the bedroom.

Beautiful views
You cannot beat the amazing views of the sunrise and sunset that this room has. The room was very clean. We loved the location and how quiet and peaceful it was each day. We saw deer each day while out on the patio and also a few dolphins. This was our third time in Kiawah and really loved this location!

Condo itself is lovely. Unfortunately it is across the parking lot from the new Kiawah conference center. A little noisy from time to time.

Beutiful Condo!
When we arrived the condo hadn't been cleaned from the previous tenants. This ruined our first day there. I had to call the property management complany Vacasa immediately and they sent someone over to clean everything promptly. We had to leave the property to allow them to clean everything. This essentially put a damper on the first day there. How a property isn't cleaned between tenants if beyond me. Other than this bad experience the rest of the week went good. The condo was great and so was the beach. I would recommend this condo if I knew the property would be clean upon arrival.

Fantastic villa!
The villa had breathtaking views, very nice furnishings, well-stocked kitchen for cooking and such. The villa was clean and smelled fresh. The only issue we encountered was with Vacasa. They are still working through some bumps with taking over properties on Kiawah. We had trouble relaying to customer service at the parent company you need a special pass for the gate. It took about an hour to finally get the point across. The local boots on the ground found out and immediately remedied the situation! Hopefully, that will smooth out. I think it's beneficial to have a phone number or email for the local manager on the agreement once you book the reservation. That would have saved me some time and frustration. We are planning to stay again later this year.

Great Condo! - one little issue
This condo was great. Great location, great view, close to the beach. Although the view is disappearing, those palm trees have gotten pretty bulky at the top. You can definitely still see the beach though. The only thing preventing me from giving it 5 stars is the mattress. For a condo to cost as much as this one does per night, that mattress is really bad. Aside from being old and uncomfortable, it creaks horribly. If one person moves slightly in the bed, just the creaking alone will wake up the other person. Once a new mattress is added, I would change to 5 stars., because it is a great condo. large kitchen, deck accessible from both living room and bedroom. One thing to note, and Im not sure if the HOA could vote to change this but it is important to know for some people. The boardwalk is NOT handicap accessible. There are 5 or 6 steep stairs. This also means bicycles cannot easily use it, there is even a no bicycles sign. And if you brought a cart or wheeled device to help tote your daily things down to the beach, that too may become complicated. Again, as far as the condo itself, 5 stars once it gets a new mattress.

ocean view
The ocean view from the balcony was beautiful. We went to sleep listening to the ocean and woke up, drank coffee, listening to the ocean. We had plenty of towels and all the amenities we needed. The condo was very quiet, we never heard our neighbors.

Great third floor views, very clean, enjoyed our time away. I’d certainly recommend to anyone heading that way. Only negative the king bed could have been a little more comfortable.

Beautiful Beach Getaway
The views are amazing and the apartment is quite cozy. The living room sofa needs to be replaced immediately as it’s squeaky, saggy, uncomfortable, and worn. Very well equipped and comfortable otherwise. The unit was very clean upon our arrival. No washer/dryer in the unit, but there was a laundry room on the floor. We would definitely return, especially if the address the sofa issue.
