Have been here numerous times for summer vacation. We stayed in the same villa at Shipwatch and had a great experience. Loved having a private path right from the villa out to the beach - it was so great for getting in and out to the sand. We loved being on the island because you can run and ride bikes... More

I stayed at the Villas early in the month of October. The weather was great, landscaping was beautiful, golf courses were very nice, Villas wer DATED, SHABBY and WORN. I would stay at the Sanctuary hotel next time I go there. Transportation is very difficult if you do not have a car to drive - the transportation desk is kind... More

Their ammenities are excellent. We were very impressed. Some of the best golf courses in the country. The beach, shopping, pools and gym were excellent. This location's close proximity to the town of Charleston makes it excellent for when you want take a break from the beach and resort.

We stayed in 5101 Windswept for a weeklong family vacation. While Kiawah has much natural beauty and we enjoyed the bike trails and restaurants, I was highly disappointed about the cockroaches in our unit. We paid over $5000 for the week and at that price, I don't expect to be killing cockroaches every night, including in the utensil drawer and... More

I spent a long weekend here with friends in May 2011 - we are 4 single women (college friends) in our mid-30s on a mini-reunion, and we rented a beachfront condo for a long weekend. The condo was fabulous - amazing view, great amount of space, and the location was the best part. The island was amazing: close to Charleston... More

My wife and I stayed at an East Beach villa for a long weekend in early May. The stay was as great as we imagined. Great location close to Town Center and Sanctuary Hotel. Kiawah is always a treat with its close attention to preservation of the natural environment.

Our unit in the Villas was adequate, but certainly nothing special. The staff was fine - friendly, but not terribly helpful. In fact, the most accomodating person we met was the man who came to spray our unit after we came home to find that we had ben subject to a coackroach invasion while we were out at dinner! Gross....

We booked Windswept Villa 5132 thru The Sanctuary, placing false trust in the 5 star resort's presumed rigorous quaility control standard and "resort priviledges" which amounted to spa and fitness center and paying $33 per hr for tennis. No pool. Dirty dated details 5132: Sticky tile floor, smeary counter and tabletops, sand in drawers, a lot of sand in drawers,... More

Since the villas at Kiawah are individually owned and decorated, it is difficult to write a review that would be true for all of them. That said, our experience at this particular Turtle Cove Villa was outstanding. My husband and I traveled to Kiawah with two of our friends and had put in a reservation for a 2-bedroom villa. We...
