So close to the beach! Beautifully renovated villa 3BD 3BA. Fairway Oaks W Beach

What drew us to this place was that we could hear the ocean calling us from our private deck and then be digging our toes in the sand after a 2 minute walk to the nearest boardwalk leading to the beach. We hope that you and your family will also be drawn to our recently renovated family friendly end-unit villa for these reasons and so much more. Relaxation and creating beautiful memories is our hope for you as you rest and take advantage of the fantastic location of this West Beach villa, just a short bike or car ride to Freshfields Market and a charming town center full of restaurants, premier shops and services.

Our bright, spacious open living and dining area are ideal for your family and friends to unwind on the comfy couch, play a board game, and/or convene at the dining table to share a meal. Our kitchen is well-stocked with cookware and bakeware and even a new dual function coffeemaker. You can enjoy your beverage on the back deck as the sun peaks through the tall trees or on a quiet evening. The three bedrooms all have attached bathrooms which have been updated with modern tiles, vanities and soothing large rainshower heads. Although our villa has beds for 6 people, there is a modular sofa to accommodate at least 1 more person. With 1500 sq ft, one bedroom on the first floor and two on the second, there is plenty of room to enjoy each others’ company but then seclude oneself for some “me” time!

Kiawah Island is unique in that it is a gated, safe and secluded sanctuary. Our villa is in a part of the island where there is the easiest access to the main entrance, Freshfields Village Market and you are just minutes away from The Sanctuary and Night Heron Park. The newly built Cougar Point clubhouse and the Conference center are a few minutes walk away. The proximity to the beach is the most attractive attribute of this villa, just a two minute walk to the boardwalk leading to 10-miles of sandy beach. Bike rental companies are available and the bike path before the Sandcastle takes you straight to the beach in a minute.

Lovely, comfortable home with everything you need. We loved that we could walk to the beach, we enjoyed nearby Freshwater Village, a deer passing through the backyard was a surprise treat and coming across the nesting turtle patrol on the beach was a real treat too! We’ll be back.

As promised, the villa had enough room and was well located, with quick access to the beach. The owner was responsive to initial emails and helpful with information. But overall, our experience was disappointing. When we arrived (well after check in time) a man answered the door and said he wasn't quite done with everything yet, but we should come in. We had groceries melting and did. We waited while he went to put sheets on the beds and finish drying the towels. he said he would bring more towels later; each bathroom got 2 and 1 washcloth. The towels never arrived. The ones we had were thin and had HOLES in them. He did come by the next day and dropped off toilet paper and paper towels - but until then we only had what little was left over from the previous guests. The kitchen appliances were dirty. Two bedrooms had lightbulbs missing. The downstairs bathroom had a urine stain on the toilet; also, the body wash was empty. Upstairs, switch plate covers in the children's room were loose. In the kitchen, so many random food items were left by previous guests that the pantry was basically unusable. This property would benefit from some monitoring as summer goes on. We will not stay here again.

It had everything we needed to feel comfortable and at home. The owner was also incredibly accommodating, going out of their way to help with special requests and ensure our stay was seamless. Highly recommend!

Great, aside from smoke detector issue

The first day of our trip was quite stressful because the two downstairs smoke detectors were extremely sensitive to humidity from the front door and first floor shower and went off repeatedly all evening which wouldn't let us or our kids sleep. (We tried to be mindful of not keeping the front door open too long as we brought our luggage in because the owner gave us a heads up about the issue. However I think our evening showers put them over the edge and caused them to go off) We had to take the batteries out. After that, our trip was enjoyable -it is a perfect location, very short walk to the beach, nicely decorated, and cozy family room to hang out to escape the heat of the day. Host's recommendations were great. Would just suggest you verify the smoke detectors have been moved/changed/somehow fixed before booking because aside from that issue, it was a great place!

Excellent Experience!

Our family and a few close friends of our teens came down to celebrate a long birthday weekend; it was our first time visiting Kiawah, and we were very much looking forward to the time away. The location and spaciousness of the villa for our group was perfect. We were so pleased to discover the layout was larger than expected and that each set of us had our own space - teen boys, teen girls, and us parents. True to its description, the beach is a very short walk away, which made coming and going so convenient. The beach never felt crowded, even during peak hours. Bike rentals made the property and surrounding areas even more accessible, and adventures were had by all exploring the trails. Prompt and thorough communication with Mauna before - and during the trip when needed - was very much appreciated. The teens all agreed this was one of their favorite trips, and that is high praise indeed. Book this villa with confidence. We will be back!

Nicely equipped kitchen.

The condo was nicely decorated with new, comfortable sofas and chairs. The beach is a quick walk down the path. The kitchen, especially, was nicely equipped with plenty of dish and glassware along with most any kitchen tool you would want. It was especially nice that there were plenty of paper towels, trash bags, food wraps, and even some basic pantry staples like sugar, salt and pepper, and coffee and filters. There were nice fluffy towels and soft bedding. We were disappointed that there were only 2 deck chairs for the table for a 3-bedroom rental unit.

This was our 5th stay on the island since 2018 and we have been looking for the perfect location, proximity to the beach specifically. This very nice property is "it." Perfectly situated, not only to the beach but also a short bike ride to Freshfields, the Nest, the Sanctuary et al. Quiet location off the main road but with easy access to the bike paths. The hostess was responsive and helpful. Overall we were very pleased and will try to rent again!
