The unattached bedroom was very damp and heavy mildew. The prop mgr brought us an air filter which helped a lot but not completely. IT appears the owners are trying to rectify the situation but it was not apparent at all that we would be having to deal with this. The main house had a humidity of over 70 even though we had the air conditioning on. Several of us had sinus issues byt the time we left due to the dampness. IT is not like any other house we have stayed out for the past 10 years on Kiawah. People should know that this is an issue for this amazing home. IT is so close to the beach and the property is very lovely. The pool was lovely. The kitchen was very well stocked with excellent pots and pans. The beds were very comfortable unlike many rentals.

We rented this property for our 30 year college reunion. We had 5 couples and the house was perfect. We enjoyed the pool, it is a short walk to the beach, the beach is beautiful, the house had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

Loved the home, great proximity to the beach. Had some trouble with hot water in the pool house and indoor upholstery/outdoor cushions could use an update due to general wear and tear but overall a great stay with friends!

This was our second year at this property and we will likely try to stay there next year. Great location. The house is spacious and comfortable. There are a few outstanding maintenance items that need repair but nothing that detracts from the property.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at 70 Forestay during the PGA Tournament. The house is excellent for guests as each bedroom has an en suite bathroom, and there is ample space for entertaining. We loved the close proximity to both the shuttle and the beach. Would highly recommend.

Great house for a big family. Grandparents on the first floor master bedroom with all grandchildren and their parents on the second level. The house is very close to the beach, and we had an easy time getting toddlers and babies to the ocean. The house is well-stocked - lots of supplies in the kitchen. Comfortable beds and lots of space. Wrap around porches were excellent and relaxing - nothing like reading a book, sipping a cocktail and listening to the waves crash onto Kiawah's shore!

Enjoyed the house, with a few exceptions, Very musty smell throughout on arrival and continued upstairs for the week. No real decor anywhere, assumed because of Covid, but expected more. Gas fireplace would have been nice as the temperature had cooled first few days. Walking on the beach was simple and is a treasure..
3.0 / 5.0
The location of the house is fantastic with its proximity to the beach. The layout of the house is great for families.
The maintenance and condition of the house and furnishings. were disappointing and certainly not up to the expectations of a house of that value in Kiawah.
The upholstery on the dining room chairs and upholstered chairs was dirty. We felt as if we should put a towel down on the dining chairs before we sat on them. The pads on the outdoor dining chairs were filthy as well. We just took them off when we sat in them. The washing machine was full of mildew. The kitchen sink was dirty and had mildew as well. The trash cabinet would not close (it completely broke and they came to fix it but it still would not go in) so we left it open throughout the stay. The kitchen was poorly furnished. We found one pot holder, no dish towels, limited sizes of pots and pans, no baking sheets and chipped coffee mugs.
The upstairs king mattress needed to be replaced (dented in the middle.)
There was only room for one car in the garage since the owners keep one there. There was a lot of junk in the garage that other renters must have left.
There were outdoor pots on the porches/decks but they were empty or the plants were neglected.
The house needs a good pressure washing.
We had a wonderful stay in Kiawah in spite of the shortcomings of the house.

this house was perfect. Each bedroom had an attached bath and TV which worked well for our "Tween" grandchildren. Lots of space. Location was so close to the beach--no crossing streets. We were very happy with our stay.

This is truly a fantastic location as it is almost on the beach - no car traffic as it's a dead end street - great for families. I would recommend cleaning the grill and replacing a few mattresses. Other than that it's a fabulous house. This was our second stay here and we plan to return

Reviewer Comments:
The house is GORGEOUS! Everything about 70 Forestay screams A1! But, the housekeeping needs special detail. The baseboards,corners of ceilings need to be cleaned and free of dirt, dust and cob webs. Some of the living area furniture could be cleaned or upholstered. Other than those few cosmetic touch ups the stay was well enjoyed by all. I will definitely use Akers Ellis again for my future vacation needs. Thanks to Amanda and Kenley for ALL of your help, you both are amazing!

We had two other families staying with us and used every bedroom. There was plenty of space and we loved having separate baths. House was clean and kitchen was stocked. There were pool and beach toys, boogie boards which was a bonus. Easy walk to beach and pool was a necessity since it was so hot. Cons: house is very warn. Lots of stains on couches, chairs, bedspreads, carpets. Mattresses need to be replaced.

Reviewer Comments:
Our group of 10 adult women who have been friends for 38 years greatly enjoyed our time in this lovely home close to Kiawah's beautiful beach. Notable features of the home which enhanced our stay: the beds and bedding were all very comfortable; the dining table was spacious enough for us to all gather around it with a few chairs we brought in from adjoining rooms; the sofas and chairs in the great room were comfortable for long group chats in the evenings; the kitchen was well equipped to allow us to cook and serve meals which we really enjoyed; all the separate bathrooms were spacious and clean; the house was well maintained and everything worked properly; the decor was nice and updated and thoughtful in the way it was arranged throughout the home; the management company was prompt in their response to one small issue we encountered; the location was excellent, right beside a path leading to a quick walk to the beach over a charming boardwalk.

One of our favorite rentals on Kiawah! Spacious, clean, well-equipped, pool, "guest" house, grill outside, gourmet kitchen, comfortable bedding and high quality furniture.... literally can't think of a complaint! Owners did a wonderful job transforming this house into a comfortable home.

Reviewer Comments:
We have rented large houses on Kiawah for the past several years and though this house was clean, comfortable and well situated, it didn't provide us with the amenities we are accustomed to when we rent a home for 10 people. With a large family, we cook a loot and the kitchen was lacking large pots, pants and various containers to make this work efficiently for so many people. The pots were WAY to small to cook for a large group! there was also only 2 dishtowels available to dry the dishes and that was largely insufficient. The chairs around the main dining room table were uncomfortable and the lack of a well situated outdoor shower/ rinsing area made it impossible not to bring sand back in the home and in the pool. Finally, the air conditioning units located on the side of the garage made for a very noisy sleep ( or should I say lack off) on the detached bedroom, above the garage Other than that, the house was fine & comfortable. I am sure the next large family of renters will appreciate you taking care of these issues. Best Regards
