The rooms were exceptionally clean and felt very cozy. It was way better than a soulless hotel room, you could feel the history in every plank of wood. In the morning while my wife and I were having coffee Wrigley came up to us to say hello."

"The condo was very clean and smelled great upon our arrival. It was amazing being so close to the beach where we could wake up and walk on to the sand in less than 2 minutes. No issues with the appliances, and it was so nice and convenient to have a washer and dryer to keep our clothes clean. The location of the condo was excellent, minutes from the main gate. We really enjoyed our stay here and look forward to coming back and hopefully this condo is available at that time."

2478 Shipwatch-Ocean Front Building- 2-bedroom villa

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at West Beach Village in Kiawah was absolutely exceptional! We stayed in a beautiful two-bedroom, two-bath villa that was impeccably decorated, spotless, and thoughtfully appointed. Every detail had been considered, making it feel both luxurious and welcoming.Our host, Patricia, truly went above and beyond. She was incredibly responsive, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our stay. We especially appreciated the villa’s convenient location—it was ideal for attending a wedding at The Sanctuary with the reception at The Ocean Course.The beach service was also fantastic and made our time on the beach even more enjoyable.What really set this experience apart, though, was Patricia’s kindness after we accidentally left behind a rented tuxedo. She responded immediately, located it, and personally mailed it back to the tux company. Her thoughtfulness and willingness to help turned what could have been a very stressful situation into a seamless one, and we are so grateful.We can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience. If you’re looking for an outstanding place to stay in Kiawah with an exceptional host, I highly recommend West Beach Village. We would absolutely stay here again!"
