This villa is wonderful! It is comfortably and beautifully outfitted with everything that you could need and I love the sliding door that opens to the living room to let in the sea air and soothing ocean noise! The owner was GREAT with communication as there was some outdoor updates going on during our stay and I just couldn't have been happier with the whole thing!

Lots of towels
Lovely patio view

Had to use vbro customer service to contact homeowner for access information ( they were wonderful )
Kiawah resort gate had no information. We had to go into gate office for lengthily verification process

We really enjoyed our stay at Shipwatch Villas. The property was just as described and what a lovely view of the ocean. The property is very well decorated, although starting to show it's age. We enjoyed our annual trip to Kiawah. The Shipwatch Villias as a whole are so very well maintained. Super clean and very well maintained. We will definitely stay in these Villas again.

My mom and I stayed here for our first trip to Kiawah and had a wonderful time. The villa was exactly as described with reviews and pictures. A great location with ocean views and such close proximity to the beach. We loved the complex in general and were so impressed with how clean and well kept all of the spaces were.
We had a small issue with the cable and Travis was quick to respond with great communication and help troubleshoot. Otherwise, our trip was without issue. The villa was well stocked with all of the kitchen items and linens we could need. Our favorite part was the balcony with views to enjoy each morning as well as the accessibility to the beach right down the hall. We appreciated these wonderful accommodations and will definitely be back to Kiawah!

I'll start by saying the kitchen remodel is really nice. Glass front lighted cabinets, stainless appliances & extra counter space. The bathroom was also really nice. But the problems we found were a deal breaker. I tried to contact the owner, no response, after 2 days I was able to talk the property manager. Really thought the issues would be addressed. The wooden patio furniture was falling apart with exposed nails, blood on the mattress, furniture in the living room was also very worn out, the springs were "very loud" after sitting in it. There was no interest in addressing these issues. We did not hear back from the owner or the property manager. All things considered, we would not recommend this unit & will not stay there again

Rented the property as a home base to enjoy the PGA Championship. Scorecard for the property follows:
Birdies:
- Very clean; tastefully decorated; shower water pressure fantastic; comfortable bed; easy beach access; ocean view from porch; coffee filters for the coffee maker; conveniently located near shopping and dining options
Pars:
- kitchen tight but workable; ample cooking supplies, dishes, silverware; bathroom serviceable; sheets and towels adequate; furnishings adequate and comfortable (less bar stools); ample parking; bedroom TV; beach chair/umbrella rentals
Bogies:
- Cable service out on living room TV, had to watch the Tournament recaps each night in the bedroom. Contacted the property manager, who referred me directly to the owner. Contacted the owner, described the issue. Issue was never resolved during our week's stay, and the owner never made contact to provide any sort of repair status update. Porch furniture is rickety and threadbare; Laundry detergent was promised in the property listing, there was none in the unit. Had we known we could have brought our own instead of making a somewhat inconvenient trip to the store to purchase it. Finally, toilet paper and paper towel usage seemed to be calculated to the sheet for our six-day stay. Maybe consider adding a roll or two

The location of this property was great for beach access as well as the shops for supplies. We missed having a table and chairs for games, but we made due. The updates to the property are nice. Could have used some hooks to hang towels in the bath. We enjoyed the space overall.

This was the first get away for me and my husband since before we had kids 26 years ago! We had never heard of Kiawah Island and just happened upon it while looking for a place to stay with Charleston as our destination. This condo was the perfect size for the two of us. Upon entering the condo for the first time, we noticed just a few cosmetic things....the electrical box cover was falling off and held by tape that had let go, caulking in the kitchen along the counter needs redone, the light on the wall in the bedroom did not work, and the shower probably needed scrubbed better as it appeared soap scum was on the walls. Other than those minor things, it was great! We loved the smart TV’s with so many options! The kitchen is beautiful with everything needed to cook. Our most favorite thing was the balcony with ocean view :) We sat out there every morning to drink our coffee. The door from living area going out to the balcony is awkward and tight lol We used the sliding door off the bedroom since it was much easier to work with. Being so close to the beach was awesome, and the boardwalk was really nice! We took our own bikes, so we rode on the beach and on the trails every day! So fun!

As advertised and reviewed
We absolutely loved this place. Perfect size for the two of us and was very clean. Most of the "little things" were already there and the only thing we really needed at the store (Harris Teeter) was food. Travis was a pleasure to deal with and we're hoping to return next year.
You will not be disappointed.

Fabulous Oceanfront Condo in Paradis
The condo lives up to all the previous 5-star reviews. The view is stunning - lovely foliage with waves crashing in the distance. The furnishings are stylish, and the furniture and bed are cosy and comfortable. The condo was equipped with everything needed for a relaxing, pandemic stay. We ate most of our meals in, and had all the equipment needed to prepare them. In the evening, we enjoyed eating on the deck. Travis stocked the house with the small things that make a big difference - appliances, starter products, and even a lightweight vacuum so the floors could stay clean and sand-free. The building is very well-run with an efficient elevator, stairs and trash room right across the hall from the unit, an excellent washer-dryer down the hall (always available when I needed it), and shower station on the boardwalk to clean off sand.
Travis is a super, super-host. He quickly responded to messages and inquiries, and allayed our concerns as Hurricane Isias was approaching the States. We had a special request due to the pandemic circumstances, and Travis went out of his way to assist.
We found our favorite place on Kiaiwah, and hope the condo is available for years to come.

Vacation 2020
We had a great time. The villa is really nice and the beach is beautiful! The landscaping from the deck is gorgeous and you have a nice view of the ocean. Look for the deer while you’re there. Twice one paid us a visit. It stood below the deck and we fed it carrots! We had a great breakfast at the Kiss Cafe. We also had a great meal at The Charleston Crab House near the Charleston City Market. (You have to visit Charleston during your stay. It’s only a short drive away.) The Wild Olive is another good place to eat off the island. If you want to rent bikes do it in advance. They were all booked up when we decided to rent some! Everyone is going for a bike ride!
