About this property

Renovated Pet-friendly Kiawah Island Villa. 5 Min Walk to Beach! Close to Cougar Point Clubhouse!

Looking for a charming & comfortable villa located close to the beach and near more activities than you can pack into one vacation on what readers of Conde Nast Traveler have voted as the "No. 1 Island to Visit in the U.S. Mainland"? Then SEA LA VIE is the villa for you! Sea La Vie, a beautifully renovated villa located on a lagoon within the Fairway Oak Villas on Kiawah Island, is a quick 5 minute walk from the crashing waves & luxurious sand on Kiawah's pristine West Beach.



Kiawah Island is a private access, park-like gated community with a very unique conservation approach. Surround yourself in the splendor of Kiawah Island's stunning natural beauty, which features rolling sand dunes, lush seaside forests, beautiful marshland and freshwater ponds. You'll feel your stress levels melt away as you bike or walk the 30+ miles of trails, kayak through the marsh waters, hunt for sharks' teeth & shells on the 10-mile long beach along the Atlantic Ocean, spend a soothing afternoon at the spa, play a round of golf, take tennis lessons with a pro or read a book in a lounge chair on the beach. Be sure to check out Kamp Kiawah & nature programs for your kids, take a drive to nearby Charleston, SC and visit the tea plantation on Wadmalaw Island! Sea La Vie's convenient location (near West Beach, Cougar Point Golf Club, the main gate to Kiawah Island, Freshfields Village & Bohicket Marina) gets you quick access to all those activities and more. Reserve this beautiful condo for your next Kiawah Island getaway today!

Perfect location! Perfect weekend getaway! Close to the beach and Kiawah golf course. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a sweet welcome gift of cookies and wine. The condo was spotless. The bathrooms were extremely clean and the shower water pressure was amazing.

My family and I booked this charming villa for a last-minute New Year’s Eve getaway and couldn’t have been happier. We had a wonderful stay - the location was perfect, close to both the beach and golf, and the villa had everything we needed to feel comfortable and relaxed. We especially appreciated that it’s pet-friendly, which made traveling with our dog so easy. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for a great experience!

Perfect Escape

Sea la vie was in a great location - close to the beach! You can chill on the patio with your coffee and watch the sun shine and the spiders make cool webs. The villa has all you need and is easy to access. A quiet area - nice to stay in.

Looking for a place to rest and relax?

Sea La Vie is a great place to catch your breath. In a world where the days can quickly become a blur, Sea La Vie is a great place to slow down. Allow yourself time to stop, relax and recharge. The entire resort is quiet, wecolming and serene. You can golf, shop, beach, eat out or dine in. You can bike the island or drive and park. A beautiful getaway that has become a favorite!

Great location, close walk to beach

We had a wonderful stay at Sea La Vie! It was the perfect size for our family and they allowed our pup to travel with us as well. We loved being close to a bike path. We frequently rode bikes to Night Heron park and walked (about 5 min) to the ocean! The kids can’t wait to come back. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay so much! We were within walking distance of the beach or very shot driving distance to the public beach area. It was a nice relaxing, no surprise, quiet stay. The no surprises part is important. All appliances, kitchen equipment, seating, beds, etc were in fine working order and easy to use. Enjoyed our stay and would book again

Excellent Choice in Beautiful Kiawah Island

Our family of 4 and frenchie had a wonderful stay here. The villa was very clean with nicely renovated kitchen and bathrooms. The pull out couch mattress was actually comfortable which is a huge plus when your kiddos do not like to share a bedroom. Kiawah is a delight for all ages with activities for kids at Night Heron Park, fishing, bike rentals, concerts, golfing, dining and of course the beautiful beach. Each time we visit we love it more and this villa was a great location for everything. The hosts were excellent at communicating and there were clear, helpful instructions well placed throughout the space. Check-out was also really simple with minimal requirements which we also appreciated.

Kiawah Island weekend getaway

I boom Sea La Vie for a weekend getaway for my daughter my granddaughter her friend and myself. The accommodations were perfect. There was only one problem. It’s called weather. It rained the whole time. Therefore we did not get to check out much of the island.

Beautiful Condo!

Our family stayed for Spring Break 2025 and had a wonderful time. The place was very nice and clean and had everything that we needed for a relaxing getaway. It was a short, 3 minute bike ride to the beach and a convenient 20 minute bike ride to the shops and 9 minute bike ride to Night Heron Park. We loved that the owners were so accommodating for our small dog.

Last Minute Weekend Getaway

We booked a last minute weekend getaway to the beach! This was a great villa at Kiawah Island. We really enjoyed the villa and the short walk to the beach! We also enjoyed the scenic view from the villa. We had a Great Blue Heron that stayed by the pond right out side the back of the villa. The furnishing and well-stocked kitchen were great! It was a short trip, but fun and enjoyable! We look forward to booking this villa again and hopefully planning on staying longer next time, but if not, we will return for another long weekend getaway!
