Great beach, nature and other benefits. Kiawah's 11 mile long private beach deserves its world class reputation. The water is actually warm and welcoming from June through September. The sand is perfect for sand castles, and kids love the tidal wading pools. Kiawah abounds with plants, birds and other animals. 30 miles of bike paths meander through various habitats. The nature center offers various types of sightseeing tours, and well as kayak and canoe adventures n the tidal marshes and Kiawah River.

Kiawah is only 24 miles from Charleston and its fine restaurants, horse drawn tours, and other sites. A 30 to 40 minute drive will take you to Magnolia, Middleton and other lovely plantations on the Ashley River, the Audubon Society swamp walk, and many other attractions.

Famous Golf and Tennis Facilities: Kiawah is famous for its golf courses, including the Ocean Course where the Ryder Cup and the PGA Championship were played. There is a wonderful golf learning facility, and excellent driving ranges. Kiawah's clay and hard court tennis facilities have been rated No. 1 in the World. The island's 5 Star Sanctuary Hotel and Spa, and its very fine restaurants, are definitely worth a visit.

Guests at our house do not have access to the Kiawah Island Resort pools, but do have access to the golf, tennis, restaurants, and other amenities on the Island.

Wonderful experience!

I vacationed with 3 dear friends at this lovely home on Kiawah Island. The place is beautiful, the beds comfy, and the deck is the best. The deck and deck chairs were the only things not perfectly clean (because they are outside!) but a simple wipe down with a wet paper towel and all was well. Our host Sam was so helpful with communications and we especially appreciated the recommendations when looking to spend a day at the beach. I would absolutely stay here again!

Girls Getaway!

We just spent 4 nights at this wonderful home on Kiawah. There was plenty of space for the 5 of us, with room to spare. This house has so many gathering places within it that we barely even left the property so we could experience all the space! The outdoor deck is perfect for afternoon cocktails and music, the large dining room table was great for brunch and card playing at night and the den was perfect for morning coffee and conversation. The owner, Sam, was so accommodating and helpful with all instructions and suggestions for things to do in the area. He was always pleasant and quick to reply. Would definitely stay here again!

Just Perfect!

The tendency when looking at places to stay at Kiawah is to gravitate towards the pretty pictures with the most modern décor styles, but I’ve found that there are things that matter and some that don’t. To start, you won’t find a more gracious host than Sam Hunt. You’ll find it in the little things like the numerous assortments of pillows to make sure you have a comfortable night’s sleep, or the best stocked kitchen on Kiawah. The architecture of this home has a way of making sure there is a nook for each of those special family moments to happen; whether it’s a vicious game of monopoly or the grandkids painting on the porch with their grandmother. I cannot wait to come back!

Perfect Family Getaway

We had the best experience at Sam's house... The tropical bike trails were our favorite. It is a quick ride to the beach from the property. There is plenty of room in the house to enjoy time together or sneak away to a reading nook. My favorite part was morning coffee on the back porch and the view is absolutely unbeatable. Sam was the best host... He was accessible and quick to respond to any needs or questions. He provided great detailed information prior to our stay and a complimentary guide to help us plan our trip! Sam truly went above and beyond to make our week special. Don't miss out on this one of a kind experience in Kiawah!

LOOK NO FURTHER! THIS IS IT!

We have made several trips to South Carolina but, thanks to our lovely host, Sam, this one was the absolute BEST!! Sam was extremely hospitable, extremely responsive and made sure we enjoyed every bit of our stay. He recommended restaurants, beaches, and shopping. He even apologized for the rain. LOL The house was extremely clean and supplied with everything you could ever need. The back porch was a welcoming extension of the house. We spent lots of time out there enjoying the lagoon and visiting wildlife. So, if you're looking for a nice peaceful vacation stay with lots of amenities, LOOK NO FURTHER, THIS IS IT! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay AND IT WAS WELL WORTH IT!! THANK YOU SAM! WE'LL BE BACK SOON!
