Wonderful! Easy to work with the Akers Ellis. I would do it again!

Property was easy and clean and very nice. Not many details about how to check out, what to do with dishes, laundry, etc... but we did the best we could. If you are trying to fish from the dock, the alligators will come close and try to steal your fish, FYI.

It was a great place to stay overall. Only complaints: the bedroom windows facing the water wouldn’t open, the washer was moldy and had a bad smell, the hot water only last for one person to shower.
Overall it was a great location, easy access to the beach and peaceful.

We loved the property & our stay! Here's some observations that need attention:
1. Garbage disposal not working
2. Refrigerator did not dispense ice or water
3. Mold in washer
4. Mold on inside shower curtain
These are easy fixes & we would rent the property in the future.

Great week at Kiawah. Unit was perfect, loved the screened in porch, so relaxing. Super quick walk/bike ride to the beach. Only suggestion- replace the master br mattress.

The East Beach condo was comfortable, lots of space and located right over water. This wonderful, older condo was close to golfing, fishing, restaurants and shopping and yet was quiet and relaxing. Great location

A few minus first:
1. We killed 4 roaches during our stay. More frequent exterminator visits could help.
2. The fridge icemaker does make ice "cubes" but the motor to deliver them was not working.
3. Stove, dishwasher and fridge work but they look old.
4. Some walls need a fresh paint coat
A few plus:
1. Nice and spacious townhome in a nice location/setting with easy beach access
2. Beds were comfortable
3. Good supply of towels, utensils, and cleaning products
4. Good internet access
5. The free water canister and coffee were a nice touch!

This was our second time staying at this unit and once again had a wonderful time. The central location is key, and the screened-in porch and views over the lagoon can't be beat. We will be back!

Very clean, wonderful location just a few minutes walk to the beach, and an amazing view over a lovely pond with lots of wildlife. Would definitely recommend!
4.8
Great location! A very short walk to the beach and The Market (excellent breakfast). Also not too far to bike into Freshfields. Loved the view of the lagoon and the light/brightness of the unit. Master bed was comfortable. Dislikes....it could use a very thorough cleaning, the toaster should be replaced (wouldn't stay down), the washing machine door, once opened, smelled horrible and moldy. Lastly, the walls must be thin as you could hear the folks on either side. That being said, we would stay here again.

The house has a great view and the outdoor patio is relaxing. The condo is beginning to show signs of wear and tear that might need to be addressed. But overall, for the money it was ok for two!

We had a fantastic stay — property was very clean, although a bit dated. Loved the screened in porch on the upper level! Quick 5 minute walk to the beach, easy access to bike/running paths. Everything we wanted in a vacation stay. The gear rental credit worked out well, too. Our bikes, chairs and umbrellas were all waiting for us and easy to use.

We have been coming to Kiawah for over 15 years and have always rented the same condo in Turtle Point. It was not available last year so we thought by the looks of this condo it would work. Akers was accommodating on transferring our payment to this year due to COVID but we were very disappointed with the unit. The appliances were old and their were rusted shelves in the freezer. All of the kitchen cabinets were full of items (too many to name) that we had to empty two out just to put our food. They need to get rid of some things! They also may want to look into cotton sheets. The poly blend sheets were so hot. We were grateful that we had good weather and did not need to spend that much time in the very dated unit. We did have trouble with the drainage in one of the tubs and a broken part on a washe. The repairmen were most accommodating.

There are many similar condos nearby, but this one has a terrific screened deck with nice outdoor furniture, and, overall, is in the best condition and is the most nicely furnished and equipped. The only things we would like to have changed: provide nicer bikes (those provided by the condo rental agency were uncomfortable), and replace the door seal on the washing machine (it is quite moldy).

We were so pleased. It was better than we expected. Screened in porch was perfect.

This Parkside unit's location with a dock overlooking a lagoon and close proximity to the beach is outstanding. We especially enjoyed relaxing on the screen porch. The unit was clean and inviting upon entering. That said, it could use a refresh - new carpet and interior paint would be a welcome upgrade. The kitchen was fairly well equipped, but had no available cabinet or closet storage so our groceries had to go on the counter - a minor inconvenience since there were only 2 of us. The beach equipment credit was a factor in choosing this unit. A great perk that sets AkersEllis apart from others. The bikes and beach gear were all in great working order. Akers Ellis provided excellent communication and we plan to rent through them again in the future.

Villa is clean, spacious and comfortable and very well supplied for baths, beds and kitchen needs. Fairly short walk or bike ride to the beach although it would be helpful to have a map of complex so you can find beach access easier. Morning views overlooking the lagoon are beautiful from large windows, deck and screened porch. Very convenient location to explore all Kiawah Island has to offer.

We’ve been coming to Kiawah every year for the last 30 years and sometimes more than once a year. Both sides of our family usually come down and we end up renting 6-7 condos not including those who have property on the island. We used to use some of the other companies who rent property on the islands but have had bad experiences over the last few years. We decided to give your company a chance and we made a great decision. Not only was the price of the rentals fair but they were in great shape and clean. We look forward to renting from you next year.

We loved this villa so much last year, we decided to come back again this year! It was the hottest week of the year so far, but we still enjoyed our time, going to the beach, watching the alligators by the dock and catching a beautiful sunset from the screened in porch.

Perfect for our family getaway. It was our first trip to kiawah and we loved the location and this villa over the lagoon. The unit is spacious and comfortable and clean. Our girls enjoyed their short bike rides to the beach as well as our morning visit by the alligator! We would love to return.
