My family and I have been going to Kiawah for over a decade. This house isn't up to par with other Kiawah houses. I would recommend a lot of sprucing up, especially cleaning the vents!! I am not sure what was in the room with the twin beds (maybe someone had pets there at one time?), but my son couldn't sleep due to itching and sneezing every other minute. He took my spot in the master with my husband and I slept in the twin bed. I started itching after the first few days in that room as well. I had to wash the mats in the master bathroom, they were filthy, and washed the bedding upstairs and vacuumed the twin bed and the floor. The sneezing subsided, but still itchy which tells me that the room wasn't very well cleaned. I would recommend painting the walls for a cleaner look and changing out the carpets and getting rid of the back porch furniture (so dirty, couldn't use it). The trash wasn't picked up, so it was overflowing and couldn't fit more trash. Some animals got to the trash and made a mess which I had to pick up. I would recommend getting someone to at least empty some of the trash or get an extra bin until the city can come get the trash. Please let the tenants know if there's construction around so they can make the decision if they want to be woken up by bangings at 7:30am (a house was being worked on around the corner so every.single.morning.there was banging at 7:30am).Also, two knobs for the stovetop were missing, guess the left side of the stove wasn't working so the knobs were removed? Not sure, but we had half a stove to cook on. I did like that the kitchen was well stocked and we had all the cookware we needed. With some TLC, the house could be a great place to stay. It's a half mile to the beach, but we didn't mind the walk. The location is great, close to the grocery store, not too far to the beach and backing to the golf course. The checking in and out were easy and loved the keyless entry door.
