My husband and I had a wonderful 5 days at Shipwatch this past week. My favorite part was the view from our balcony of the beach and surf! My favorite sights and sounds!

Nice place w/ view. Deck faces east so an extra umbrella we employed in the provided table and chairs made it much nicer in the morning otherwise the heat was brutal

PROS

Location was perfect.
Easy to get to and from beach and to condo from parking lot.
Condo was very clean.
Perfect for a couple.
Loved having the balcony accessible from both the bedroom and the living room.
Bed was extremely comfortable.
View was perfect.
Some updates have been made but it would have been a perfect retreat if some remodeling was done in the way of furniture and floor updates to match throughout.

CONS

We needed more wash cloths for a five night stay.
It was difficult to get comfortable and cozy in the living room. Couch wasn’t really comfortable or inviting. Maybe because it is a sofa couch? It wasn’t awful but just not great for $$ of condo.
Patio furniture could have been more comfortable. But, I also totally get why they have what they do being a rental.
Needs a recycling container in the condo.

All in all, it was a good visit for us.

We loved sitting on the balcony, enjoying the ocean view. The unit was comfortable and clean with everything in good working order. This was our second year in this condo and we are looking forward to next year.

We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and the view of the ocean. The unit is well located, convenient to Freshfields Village and to Mingo Point for kayaking. The decor is somewhat dated but the furnishings were comfortable.

The picture on the listing is accurate, and exactly what my fiance and I were looking for. A beautiful beach view, sleeping with the sliding door open to hear the surf, and sunrise right outside our window. Beach access was easy, both on foot and on bike. Kiawah offers the things we wanted: golf, beach, good food and drinks. And the property was just right. We will be back, and will probably book the same address.
PHE makes it all easy. Pre arrival information was thorough and accurate, and made our stay almost effortless... we only had to unpack and pack! They checked in with us once to make sure everything was OK. Thank you PHE for a wonderful engagement experience.

Haven’t been to Kiawah since the 90’s. We had our honeymoon in Kiawah and it holds a special place in our hearts. The accommodations were wonderful. It was spotless and a perfect fit for my husband and me. The view...oh my goodness...beautiful!!

My wife and I were visiting Kiawah Island for the Marathon, and we really enjoyed our time there. The condo was clean and comfortable with a beautiful view of the ocean.

Lovely, very clean and well appointed apartment. The views from the large windows and terrace were truly breathtaking. Amazing sunrises! Just steps from the beach through the secured gate. We really loved our stay and look forward to coming back.

Great views and amazing sounds. Great place to get away to. Price is right too. Like your own hotel suite for a fraction of the price.

Perfect holiday getaway!

This one bedroom condo was great! It’s perfect for a couple and the location is fabulous. It is very nicely maintained and in very good condition. The kitchen is well equipped. We enjoyed morning coffee on the terrace overlooking the ocean. We also spent several evenings having wine and cheese on the terrace. It’s a quick run to the amenities of Freshfields. I will happily rent this vacation home again when my husband and I return to Kiawah.

We loved our stay. The balcony was warm and sunny even though it was breezy and chilly on the beach. We spent quite a bit of time there. Kiawah never disapoints.

It was great to be on the beach again, even though the temperatures were very cold for Kiawah! Our condo was cozy and warm, and we had great views of the ocean from both rooms. Made us forget how cold it was outside!

This villa is ideally located on the 4th floor to provide fantastic views of the icean and beach - sun rise and sun set! Very nicely decorated and outfitted. Perfect for a romantic get-away!❤️

Beyond beautiful ocean views of the sunset and sunrise. The space was perfect for my stay with my partner. We would definitely come back.

My wife and I have visited Kiawah every year for the last 27 years. We have stayed at various sites, and this unit was by far the nicest and cleanest we have rented. Plan on returning in October and reserving the same unit.
Fantastic!

We enjoyed a nice relaxing week-end at Kiawah. This is the second time we have stayed at this property. Very convenient to everything and the views are great!

Location was perfect and as described. I appreciated the height of the deck chairs - the ocean view was not obstructed by the rails. The bed was very comfy!

We travel frequently and this is one of our favorite destinations. In fact we have been coming back to this same villa for 10 years. The ocean is mild and there are many great bike trails filled with nature from painted buntings to alligators and dolphins. Culinary experiences are beyond description - something for everyone. A fantastic place to relax and enjoy.

The condo was the perfect location for a short stay at the beach. The view of the beach/ocean from both rooms was great. Plenty of room for two people. Might be tight for more. Kitchen had everything we needed. They even provided beach chairs! We will be coming back, for sure!

We had a wonderful time at Kiawah. Although the weather was very hot, at the beach the breeze was so nice you couldn't feel it! Sunny weather, saw a dolphin, found shells!!!

The location was gorgeous and the view was just what we wanted! Room was clean and perfect for a couple enjoying the weekend away from the kids. We cannot wait to go back!

Great venue for fresh air and the ocean. Cycling on the beach is so invigorating, and the bike paths are first rate. We took two kayak excursions in the salt marshes, and learned a bunch about that ecology.
Everyone got the memo on courtesy and friendliness from the front gate to the condo maintenance staff.

We have been coming to Kiawah for over ten years and this is our second stay at 2476 Shipwatch. We have returned to this unit because it is our favorite. We love the ocean views and especially the "pelican parade". It is very comfortable, very well maintained and exceptionally clean. We will be coming back for another stay!

My son and I had a wonderful time! I haven't been to Kiawah in about 7 years, and it has gotten better. I golfed, we rode bikes, went to the beach, ate lots of good seafood, shopped and just had a wonderful time. Love Freshfields shopping center. There were lots of good restaurants and it is so convenient.

My wife and I recently stayed at Shipwatch at Kiawah Island and would reccommed it to anyone who wants a relaxing stay in first class accommodations with a beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean. It doesn't get any better than this!

This unit was just right for my extended stay. Great view. You could see the ocean from everywhere. The pelicans were fun to watch,also the deer.

We really loved our stay at 2476 Shipwatch. The unit was very clean and its appearance was like new. We especially liked the beatiful views of the ocean and falling asleep at night to the sounds of the waves. The constant parade of peligans and seagulls gliding past the windows was really something special. We'll be back!!
