    Bushes grown up, couldn’t see pond. Curtains were broken and could close or open as would be expected.

    A perfect stay at this small but excellent apartment. We loved the porch overlooking the pond, with the calming sound of the fountain and the views of birds, trees, and sometimes even an alligator. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. The short walk to the beach is another plus.

    The unit was clean and, while slightly dated, well-maintained, We enjoyed the screened-in porch overlooking the pond and fountain. Access to the beach was easy and it was nice being close to the mainland. Bike paths were accessible close by.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect time of year to vacation in one of our favorite areas of Kiawah Beach. First time we had rented this condo and it was all that we expected. My wife definitely wanted the screen porch view of the pond with fountain and it sealed the deal. The 2-3 minute walk to beach is very nice and every day, this time of year, was like have your own private beach. The rental itself had all the amenities that we needed. There were a couple minor issues or recommendations but absolutely nothing that would prevent us from giving this place at least 4.5 stars. We would definitely rent there again.
