The living room, decorated in a contemporary chic style, boasts floor to ceiling windows allowing the natural sunlight to fill the gorgeous space. There are panoramic views of the infinity pool and Canvasback Pond from almost every room. The living room has a 65” mounted flat-screen TV with sound system. The plush seating, in cream and blue hues, includes a sectional sofa and several club chairs for watching a good show or indulging with a good book.
The dining room area is located just off the open living room and features elegant table seating for 10 guests. Modern luxury extends to the large, newly renovated, gourmet kitchen, which contains custom cabinetry with open faced shelves and tile backsplash as well as high-end stainless steel appliances (Sub-Zero, Wolf, Bosch) and a large island for extra counter-space to make cooking a breeze. The large kitchen island, including the large farmhouse sink, for perfect for hosting an area to socialize or prep a delicious meal. You can utilize the 4 high-top chairs at island or the two-person breakfast counter for additional dining seating. Don't forget about the outdoor grill, perfect for a backyard BBQ.
Finishing off the main floor is a spacious king bedroom and a French doors leading to the pool. This bedroom has a private bathroom which is fully-upgraded with granite countertops and a modern tiled standing shower.
Halfway up the stairs, you'll find the impressive master suite. It features a king size bed, reading nook, and two comfortable arm chairs. The private, spa-style bathroom has dual vanities, soaking tub and huge walk-in shower.
At the top of the stairs are the remaining three guest bedrooms with fully-renovated, en-suite bathrooms. Bedrooms three, four and five contain one king bed, three twin beds (third bed is a twin-trundle bed), and two queen beds, respectively. Each room is decorated in classic coastal decor, attractive furnishings, and have flat screened TVs.
There is also an inviting upstairs living room area, with a pull-out sleeper sofa and comfortable arm chairs, offering more space for watching TV, playing games, or relaxing. Additionally, there is a small loft area just up the charming circular staircase for a peak at the gorgeous island views. A nice addition to further make this place your own.
Additionally, the home has upgraded WiFi and smart TVs throughout the home to enhance the experience of working/schooling remotely and streaming your favorite shows and movies.
An access bridge just next to the home allows for a short 4-minute walk over to 10 miles of sandy beaches. Golf on five world class courses. Play tennis on premier courts. Bike on over 30 miles of trails. Kayak in the tidal creeks. Fish in lagoons or at sea. Sun by the ocean or pool side. All the pleasures of an island vacation are waiting.

Perfect size for our family. Perfect location for the beach and location for groceries and getting on and off the island. A few items to improve on drying pad for dishes, more towels for kitchen and floor in main master needs mildew removed
And we did have a pretty big water leaking from ceiling in stairwell….. was reported. Of course there was A LOT of rain a couple of nights
All in all we will probably consider staying next year
Thank you

This house was everything we hoped for: Newly renovated, with clean and modern amenities throughout. Short walk to the beach. Gorgeous infinity pool and hot tub. Large kitchen and a nice grilling patio to boot. Would highly recommend! Also a shout out to Sweetgrass Properties that manages the house—they did a fantastic job.

Entered the property to huge dead roaches and dirty dishes in the dishwasher. Appeared the property had not been properly cleaned prior to our arrival. Water shut off at 9 pm. Was resolved in a timely fashion but should have never happened. Pool was not cleaned out.

Our family had an amazing week at 181 Glen Abbey. We loved everything about your well appointed home. The adults especially all enjoyed the comfort of King size beds for the 3 couples. The children had a big time in the pool. Your location is excellent. So nice to take the short walk along the beautiful path to the beach. Perfect!

Beach Fun
We very much enjoyed our stay. 181 is a beautiful home. We all lives the walk to the beach over the bridge, cooked some great meals in the well equipped kitchen, and had lots of fun in the pool. The locks on the sliding glass doors in the back of the house are broken making it impossible to lock the house up and despite following the provided directions for the hot tub to the letter we were never able to get it going.

Outside patio area looks like it hasn't been power washed in quite sometime. Deck and windows covered in bugs. Stains on some inside furniture. Shower was mildewed.
Loft seemed very dirty. Needs to be cleaned.
Kitchen was pretty well stocked.
Great location.

June 20 - 27 Visit
The house is beautiful and was very clean and comfortable. The boys enjoyed the pool. The location is convenient to the beach and the neighborhood is lovely. Staff was responsive & we were brought a replacement coffee maker Sunday morning. We have one complaint, however. The house has plenty of room for three families (ourselves, two daughters, & their families),yet one of the two garages was locked & unavailable. We could park only one car and three bikes inside and the other two cars and bikes filled the driveway.

We had another wonderful week at Kaiwah for our annual family beach trip. We enjoy this house very much and have stayed in it several times. It is just the right size for our group of ten. We love the pool and closeness to the beach.

Incredible House on Kiawah
We greatly enjoyed our week long stay at this property. The floor plan is bright and open and the entire home is beautifully decorated and recently renovated. The bedrooms are spacious and the adjoining bathrooms are very nice. The amenities are fantastic. We loved the outdoor area with the pool and spa and the view of the lagoon from the deck is gorgeous. The house location is perfect with a very short walk (couple of minutes) to the beach. We highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again!
