We’ve stayed on Kiawah many times, and many times also in this development, but this was by far our favorite condo in Windswept. The house is impeccably furnished, the views are unbeatable, and you’ll feel at home right away.

This was our 15th time staying in Kiawah...and our experience with staying at this property has resulted in it becoming one of favorites! The "front row" to the amazing beach views and access, the location within the Heron Park community and convenient access to the Nest Marketplace and activities, and the condition and amenities of this property make this a 10 out of 10! A friendly piece of advice, you get what you pay for...there are less expensive properties, but for all of the value that you receive for the price point, the Penthouse property is a rare find indeed! Very special play to stay!
This is the average morning view from the backyard of the Penthouse's location...literally a 75ft walk.

Spectacular Beachfront Stay

We were 2 couples with an additional friend who stayed for several days in April. The condo was in perfect shape and offered all of the amenities that one would look for on Kiawah. Everything was made easy and with luxury. In addition, any and all questions were answers promptly. Loved our stay and can’t wait to return!

Penthouse Perfection on Kiawah

From the moment I booked, Jeanette and Shawn welcomed us. Arrival was quick and simple with gate pass printed ahead of time. When we walked in, the first think we saw was the beautiful ocean view! Almost everywhere you look in this condo, there are ocean views. The main floor bedroom does not have them, but both upstairs bedrooms do. Our room had a window seat, which was perfect for ocean views for my husband who has mobility issues. The main floor balcony was perfect for watching sea birds, dolphins, and deer who forage in the dues below. We felt like we didn't even have to go down to the beach to enjoy it! Everything in the condo was sleek and aesthetically appealing. KIG does a great job of making it feel like a home, not a rental. Plenty of kitchen necessities. Truly everything you need or could want is at your fingertips. They send ideas for places to honor try and offer booking soft things like bikes and beach chairs. Very professional! We are now officially spoiled, and I know we will be back to the Penthouse again next year. After 20+ years of coming to Kiawah, this is officially our home away from home! ❤️

Gorgeous penthouse suite with ocean views

This place exceeded our expectations and was an amazing place for a get away. The details and decorating were beyond any rental we've ever stayed in. Plus, the views from the patio and upper bedrooms were phenomenal. It was wonderful to wake up to the sunrise every morning. The communication with the owner was a bit cold and unfriendly, but she responded quickly to any question. The check-out process was also a bit more complicated than any we've experience... needed to go through an online checklist to confirm we did everything we were supposed to do before leaving. Other than this it was a wonderful experience and we'd highly recommend it!

Perfection! No detail overlooked!

We had a wonderful time during our stay in this property. It is SO beautifully appointed; truly looks like it’s straight out of a magazine. The views of the beach are stunning. We enjoyed family bike rides on the island paths and the wide open beach. So much wonderful nature to take in on this magical island. The owners were fantastic and friendly and we will be staying at their properties every time we visit from now on!

If the location doesn’t stun you, the property will

First time in Kiawah and staying with Shawn and Jeanette but hopefully many more in the future. The inside was literally stunning and you can’t beat the proximity to the beach. The beds were also the most comfortable I’ve had at a rental property. They’ve thought of everything you need and are clear in the check in and check out procedures. Overall a fabulous experience.

Penthouse Perfection!

My three friends and I experienced five glorious days in this penthouse and it was so beautifully decorated and was like my home away from home. It was pure luxury with our hosts thinking of every single thing I could possibly need. Whenever I reached out with a question, I received an immediate response. I will definitely return and highly recommend it. I know they didn't order the beautiful weather and glorious sunrises, but ... did they?
