We didn't want to leave
This house was so perfect. It was spacious with plenty of room for each person in our party of 4 to have their personal space and to hang out together without being crowded. Definitely accommodates more than 4. Roomy but cozy at the same time. Perfect access to the beach boardwalk and an easy stroll to the ocean. Want to live here! Seriously. Can we just stay here??

Excellent Stay
We couldn't have been more pleased with our stay. We found the check-in process to be very easy/simple. Communication with the host was very efficient. We were pleasantly surprised with how well the home was furnished with Cookware, in particular. Landscaping was immaculate. Everything was in great working order, especially no issues with internet or television. Beach access was hassle free. Very close shopping and groceries at Freshfields Village. We also took advantage of the Equestrian park at Seabrook, Magnolia Plantation, King Street, a carriage ride downtown, Local art at the Open Market Downtown, excellent dining options, and wonderful sunsets on the beach. Probably one of our best VRBO stays. So thankful to have been able to stay at this property. Great job to the hosts and owners.

Beautiful House
House was outstanding - lots of space, lots of amenities [stocked kitchen, bikes, etc], an excellent lot [beautiful landscaping w excellent porches]... however, we were not permitted to use the gas fireplace [on chilly mornings this would have been the best] and the [only] queen bed is getting old [folks tend to slide to the center]... no regrets

Family of 6 Vacation
We have vacationed in Kiawah before (been several years ago now) and our kids always loved it. Now they are grown with a husband and finance and we decided to return after celebrating our youngest's college graduation from Charleston. The home is beautiful! It is uniquely and well-built; a true custom with lots of custom features (beautiful millwork). It is decorated with love and attention. It was true to the listing in those regards, as was the well-stocked kitchen (everything you need and more, more, more). However, it was not clean! Not even close! I think the cleaning service may have changed sheets and brought in towels and that was probably it. The kitchen floor has not been mopped in a very long time. And, the kitchen stove was filthy-again, not been cleaned in a very long time. The kitchen has many many gorgeous sets of dishes, serving ware, trays, pots, pans, etc, etc, etc. but it's everywhere. It's almost too much or it should be in labeled cabinets and drawers so that renters can return items to their proper place. The main living room furniture, although very high-end and beautiful, is very worn. The carpets were in need of a good vacuum. Overall I think this house is amazing. It is just in need of a deep clean, a deep purge, and some serious organization. The house is in a great location with easy beach access. We enjoyed the quiet beach, and bike riding daily. Thanks for the beach credit with Vayk Gear. The bikes and beach cart were great. We were able to easily rent beach umbrellas and chairs from Beach Gear Rentals which drove by on the beach daily. I will add that the property management was not friendly nor responsive prior to or during our trip.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Absolutely amazing home with wonderful accommodations! We had never been to Kiawah and were not quite sure what to expect, however we are completely in love!!!! This particular home exceeded our expectations - the decor was fabulous, the house is quite large and stunning. Fantastic views of the channel with several sitings of alligators! Great outdoor seating areas as well as great indoor seating areas for multiple conversations. The kitchen is absolutely stunning and while we did enjoy several nearby restaurants we also enjoyed cooking in this professional kitchen. The bedrooms are very accommodating and in particular, the master suite is outstanding.
All in all, we were very pleased with our stay. We were able to hit the beach for half a day, visit Charleston twice, spent some time at Freshfields and enjoy some quality family time.
Thank you so much!

Lovely homey stay
Very nice home great for socialization with its open plan downstairs. Bit of a hike to beach though. Insufficient garbage/recycling recepticals for a weeks stay. Minimal garbage bags, detergent and dishwasher pods. I also expected clean windows to take in the great views of the lagoon and/or some cleaning supplies would have been nice but that was not the case. Our group returns annually and would consider this home or similar in the future.

Well stocked solid home
A couple of things to consider...no pool and no screened porch. And the boardwalk which is right across the street has been changed to a private boardwalk with a locked gate and no way to access. Still, it is a short walk (<7-8min) to the beach via boardwalk 35. We could not figure out how to turn the lights on in the basement to play ping pong but to be fair, we didn't ask the property manager about it. It just wasn't that big of a deal to us. In any other matter, the property manager was extremely responsive to all of our questions/concerns. I would highly recommend 18 Flyway for your next stay.

Spacious and private
The layout of this house is perfect. Great for one or two families and kid friendly. Kitchen has it all and more! Enjoying a coffee on the deck and watching for gators was something we looked forward to every morning. The bike path is a few blocks away. You do need to ride your bikes to the beach entrance so we rented bikes with a cart attachment in back to bring all the beach toys/towels. The beach on this end of the island is nice and quiet. Loved our stay!

Beautiful!
We had an amazing stay over the Christmas holiday. The home is nicely decorated, very warm and relaxing, with a well-stocked kitchen. This is a perfect home for a family holiday getaway. Short bike ride, or walk, to the beach made for perfect outings on a sunny December day!
Thank you for opening up your home. We really enjoyed everything about our stay and look forward to coming back!
