Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
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.

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!

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.

Birthday getaway

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.

Nice place, great service
Nice property on Kiawah for a getaway. Good view from balcony of the beach. Note for future immediate future travelers. I was there the 2nd week of December 2021, and there's a big construction project on the other end of the building. Lots of noise and work that looks like it will take at least a month. Didn't really bother me but something to keep in mind if that thing concerns you. Great property manager responses.

Lovely Stay
My husband and I visited Kiawah for a conference. The West Beach Village conference center is conveniently located right across the street so I walked to my conference every morning. It is also just steps away from the beach. The condo itself was clean and modern. Great stay!

A favorite spot
We have stayed here the past 4 times we have visited Kiawah and love it. The proximity to the boardwalk, easy bike rides to Freshfields and the Nature Center, plus the ocean views make it perfect. The unit is well decorated and clean as well. Highly recommend.

Beautiful but stinky
As soon as we walked in it smelled like a hamster/rabbit cage. We tried to air it out but the smell never went away. It was so strong. The floor was dirty and some Lysol or room freshener by the door would have made the trip so much better.

Great views and private balcony
We really enjoyed staying at this location. The proximity to the beach, the views, lots of privacy but also lots of windows - was all great! It was fun being at the same height as the tops of the palm trees. Heartily recommend!

Too many fees and other charges doubling rental rate
We used VRBO to rent our vacation condo. We were charged service fees by Vrbo and several different types of fees by Vacasa. Ended up doubling our rental charges for the place.
