Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback of the property. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay! We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for your next trip to Kiawah.
This home is a gem inside Kiawah Island. Very convenient to the beach with Boardwalk 39 just across the street. The house is well cared for and has all the things you need for a great vacation. We loved the pool and hot tub, the very spacious layout, the kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, spices, etc and there are beach toys and carts in the garage. Our multi generational family from 8 to 80 all had such a great time. Thank you!!

My wife and I decided to bring our grown children back to Kiawah Island for a vacation after a 15 year absence. This time the family trip included our adult children’s significant others. The home we rented through Akers Ellis was a perfect fit for our group of 8. The home was spectacular, beautifully decorated with 5 bedrooms all with their own bathrooms and a pool. We were a 5 minute walk to the beach so those that preferred the beach to the pool were delighted. Akers Ellis were extremely responsive to any questions we had concerning the house. On our first day we had a small problem with the home’s elevator (!!!) and within 20 minutes an Akers Ellis representative was at our door to fix the problem. We also had paid extra to heat our pool but decided on the trip down to cancel the pool heat because it had been so hot outside. When we called from the car the Akers Ellis representative canceled the pool heat and within minutes had credited our credit card for the correct amount. Overall it was a great return trip to Kiawah, we will be back, and we will certainly contact Akers Ellis to rent our next home.
Kitchen had everything including spices which we left more because we bought ones we didn’t need ! The whole house is beautiful and only problem was spa that got fixed last day ! This is a beautiful home ! 5couples in sixties with plenty of space and privacy !! We also wish sight would of let us know they have beach chairs and 4bikes because we rented chairs and bikes !

We absolutely loved our stay at 161 Flyway Drive. The house is beautiful with a very accommodating layout for three families (3 king ensuite bedrooms ). Due to COVID-19, we cooked much more than usual when we are on vacation. Every time we looked for another kitchen gadget - we found it! This house is easily the best stocked kitchen we have ever had on our multiple trips to Kiawah. Location was perfect! We overlooked the fairway from the pool / deck area. We were directly across the street from Beach Access 39 which made our daily trips to the beach a breezy five minute walk. This is a beautiful home and should we return to Kiawah, this will be the first rental we check. Thank you Akers Ellis for making our check in and check out so easy!
