About this house rental
Enjoy the quintessential Kiawah Island experience in this magnificent 6,000 square foot home with breathtaking views of the Kiawah River and tidal marshes from every room. Located at the easterly tip of exclusive Rhett’s Bluff, and surrounded by water on three sides, this 6 bedroom/6.5 bath retreat offers privacy, security and exclusivity unique even to Kiawah. Features that allow guests the optimum connection with the home’s natural surroundings include an outdoor swimming pool, deck and spa, a large screen porch with additional dining accommodations, and a dock.
The property, named “Moon River” by its owners for the spectacular moonlit evening views over the river and marshes, features an open and spacious floor plan with high ceilings, elevator access at every level, a family room, sitting room and library, and a beautifully appointed kitchen with granite countertops, built-in refrigeration, ice machine, two dishwashers, a six-burner professional stove and separate butler’s pantry. Every bedroom features a private bath and flat screen television. The large master bedroom on the second floor boasts an expansive balcony and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. Due to the complete privacy of the setting, the master bedroom windows remain untouched by a shade or curtain. The third floor king bedroom suite includes a separate sauna off the full bathroom.
This serene home is perfect for large families on vacation, adult get-togethers, or executive golf or strategic retreats, and offers close proximity to all Kiawah amenities, as well as ample parking in and out of the garage. Beach access is a short bicycle ride to the path adjacent to the Sanctuary Hotel. Entertain your family, friends and colleagues in a truly world class setting.
The home is equipped with washer, dryer, and high-speed wireless internet.
This pool has a gas heater, so the pool and spa may be heated in cooler months for $100/per day for the entire stay. It can take 24-48 hours for the pool water to reach the optimal temperature of 85-87 degrees. When the air temperature falls below 55 degrees, typically November-March, pool heaters have difficulty achieving the optimal temperature. In this case, pool heating will not be available.

You may use your credit for bicycles, beach chairs and umbrellas, beach carts, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and more – the choice is yours!

The house met all our needs. Had a total of 5 adults 3 of which were my customers. The set up of the back deck was great with the pool and spa. Played 3 days of golf and the spa was great for the 60 and older. Kitchen worked out great as we ate most of our meals there. Very nice accommodations.

This is a beautiful house with a stunning view of the river in a picturesque neighborhood! The house accommodated our family who range in age from 3 years old to 90. We were all incredibly comfortable during our stay and were all in absolute agreement that we would book this property with this great management team again in a heartbeat.

Reviewer Comments:
Overall wonderful location in a large house with lots of amenities. The only disappointments were the grill and oven were not good quality given the quality of the house. The spa did not work at all though we did not feel the need to pay for it to be heated. The other oddity was there were multiple entrance doors that could not be locked so there was a sense of insecurity with little kids in the house.

We loved our stay here and are so glad that we chose it! It's even better than the pictures! The beautiful, peaceful marsh views are incredible from almost every window -- but especially from the second-floor master bedroom. The rooms are large and comfortable, and the kitchen is very well-appointed. Plenty of great gathering spaces, too. (Our group especially enjoyed playing games at the extra large dining table and cocktail hour on the porch.) This is an excellent place to create great memories! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us!

We very much appreciated this quiet/peaceful/secluded home. Easy walk or short drive to the Sanctuary, where we accessed the beach. Pool was used by the kids and all, every night after dinner. We enjoyed the entire house and found all that's necessary to live comfortably. House is perfect for large family gathering.

Great time, as usual. Always book a house for my family on the beach. But I always wanted to stay on the marsh side one time. It was completely different and enjoyable.

Such a beautiful home in a perfect, private location! Between the pool, hot tub, dock, wonderful porches and decks....we never wanted to leave! We enjoyed fishing and crabbing from the dock...we even saw dolphins and sharks! The home was immaculately decorated in an elegant low country style. The kitchen had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this vacation home and hope we get a chance to go back!

Celebrated my birthday with my kids and grandkids. Weather was beautiful. The location of the house is unbelievable, with water on 2 sides. Loved the view from the 2nd floor master bedroom. My wife says that this was out best trip ever to Kiawah.

Beautiful house with wonderful views! We had 9 people and never felt crowded. Plenty of space for everyone to do their own thing. Crabbed off the dock and enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Great location on Kiawah.
