Oceanfront 3BR/3Bath Premier Penthouse in the heart of Kiawah

There is no better feeling than hearing, smelling and seeing the ocean while relaxing from your own oceanfront balcony, knowing that at any moment you're just steps away from taking a stroll on the beach below. The oceanfront villa at 4435 Sea Forest Drive is the ideal coastal getaway thanks to its panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and sweeping vista of Kiawah's 10-miles of pristine beaches.
Wake up to gorgeous sunsets and direct ocean views from nearly every room of this 3BR/3 Bath Premier Penthouse Windswept villa. Both upstairs master suites have windows overlooking the ocean, while the open concept main floor is bright and airy with ocean views from the kitchen, dining area, and living room.

While the stunning views will take your breath away, you will be equally pleased with the luxurious, fully renovated interior that has been professionally designed for your comfort and relaxation.

This spacious, townhouse-style villa accommodates up to 6 guests.
Gather with loved ones on the first floor which features an open concept living space with floor to ceiling windows to appreciate the ocean views and an updated kitchen that flows into the dining area and living room. The kitchen is fully stocked with all you need for cooking and enjoying meals in the villa.

Step from the living room onto the oceanfront balcony and enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine while listening to the sound of the ocean below.

On the first floor you will also find the guest bedroom suite with 2 twin beds and a fully renovated en suite bathroom with shower.

As you make your way upstairs, two master suites await, both with comfortable king beds and their own beautifully renovated en suite bathrooms.

The location of this villa is another one of its best features - located in East Beach Village, it is just steps from the beach and a short stroll or bike ride to the Sanctuary Hotel, Night Heron Park, golf, tennis, and many restaurants and shops. You are right in the heart of Kiawah to enjoy all that this magical island has to offer.

Great Spot and nice property

Had a very nice stay here. Property is very well located (walking distance to The Sanctuary) and in good condition. Our family of five felt very comfortable and while it’s not a huge condo, it is laid out well so the space didn’t feel cramped at all. Julie was a great host - very accessible. I’d definitely stay here again.

Wonderful stay on Kiawah Island

This Penthouse on Kiawah Island is lovely. We spent five days there as a family of 5 (three kids ages 13, 11, and 8), and the space worked perfectly. The home is well-appointed with everything you could need from coffee makers to beach gear to puzzles and games. Julie is a wonderful communicator and the check-in process was seamless. The views of the ocean are beautiful and the beach is steps away. We have stayed in many vacation rentals and this one was one of our favorites!

This Villa is beautiful. It’s clean, in a great location, and is well stocked. We had a great time with family and friends! The one minor issue was the AC didn’t work well. The upstairs bedrooms were hot. The beach view from the deck is awesome!

Thanksgiving Family Reunion

We loved meeting our grown children for Thanksgiving on beautiful Kiawah Island. We could not have asked for a more beautiful and well appointed waterfront condo. Everything we needed was right at our fingertips. Spotlessly clean. Lovely linens. The kitchen had everything you could need. Thank you Julie for sharing your beautiful home!

Time to de-compress

We loved our much needed stay at East Beach. After a summer we are calling two weddings and a funeral, we needed a place just to "be" and relax. Golfing for our husbands, long walks on the beach and needlepoint for us. PERFECT!

Kiawah Island Gem!

This is a beautiful home my wife, brother, and sister-in-law had the privilige to stay in for a mini vacation. Well laid out, solidly built, and amazing views! Close to the tennis center, Night Heron Park, and Freshfield Village. The nicest VRBO we’ve ever stayed at and have experienced many. Julie was great to work with - very responsive and hospitable!

Sisters Trip

We are a family of 9 kids and there are 6 girls...us sisters, take a milestone birthday trip every 3-4 years that included two of the sisters hitting big birthdays this time. This year we found this beautiful gem and cannot wait to find a reason to come back! This particular condo was perfect...the location, the views, the vibe...it hit a 10/10 on everything!! Julie was absolutely lovely to work with and very responsive. We did several activities including kayaking, going to The Sanctuary for dinner and shopping, into the town square for coffee and more shopping and otherwise enjoyed each others company on the beach and in the condo cooking and playing games! It truly was one of the best...according to ALL 6 of us!!
