Our stay in this lovely property was wonderful.
Our stay in this lovely property was wonderful. The golf course view and proximity to the beach, availability of gear rental all made it so easy and effortless. The communication between Aker Ellis and the gear rental were so timely and thoughtful. As previously texted, we have a few minor suggestions and information. The upstairs king bed mattress squeaks terribly no matter where you sit on it...just the mattress design we presume but it made it hard to sleep. The bunk bed room was IDEAL for our grandsons and the downstairs bedroom was gorgeous and comfortable. So nice to have three bathrooms vs. sharing!!! The kitchen was we ll equipped. We would have liked to see some basics like salt and pepper, foil, cooking spray oil and maybe some zip lock bags. Perhaps that is out of the scope of VRBO...it's my first experience renting one. The non-stick frying pans are very worn and should be replaced. Also please note that the garden house out front is split badly and should be replaced. I hate to mention these minor issues but it's apparent to me that your company takes great pride in ensuring a top-notch experience. We will always remember this family vacation with amazing memories. South Carolina is a very special place.

Week Getaway to our Happy Place
Had a fantastic trip back to our Happy Place after two years of being cooped up! From the moment we walked in to our rental at 1304 Fairway Oaks till the unfortunate departure we had a fantastic time. The condo was in great shape and and very warm and welcoming. A few notes of positive criticism:

1.) beds could use a new mattress or mattress topper
2.) back patio could use a cleaning and new cushions - unfortunately was unable to take advantage due to overwhelming spider presence

With all this being said - We have already booked our stay for May and look forward to returning!

Beautiful, immaculate condo
The rental was perfect for our family of seven. It was equipped with all kitchen needs and nice linens. An easy walk to the beach. Cougar Point Clubhouse is a three minute walk and convenient for a meal and a beautiful sunset view. We could not have had a better experience.

Fantastic Family Vacation Spot
Our family visited this villa and really enjoyed our stay. The unit is very nice and comfortable, and the kitchen is well-equipped with everything you might need during your stay. Great upstairs set up for us - room for the kids plus a master bedroom. Another bedroom downstairs. Right on the golf course made for fun evening people watching - as golfers came through the 17th fairway at Cougar Point. Villa is about a 7-8 minute walk to the beach - very easy to get there; five minute drive to Freshfields, and only a 2 mile bike also. Highly recommend staying at this villa.

A bit pricey, but worth the money given location, amenities and everything that the Kiawah Resort has to offer. It would have been nice to have a pool pass. Rental bikes and beach chairs & umbrellas from VayK Gear could have been in better shape.

Great location and villa!
Beautiful villa in a great location in Kiawah! The walk to the beach is a bit long (esp if you have young kids), as boardwalk 5 is closed. House is very comfortable but could use some rugs and a thorough cleaning of the floors. (IF there were rugs you wouldn't notice how dirty the floors actually are...). Didn't realize there was a hose in the front to wash off with until the end of the trip so maybe that should be mentioned or made prominent somewhere. Otherwise it was a fantastic vacation - Kiawah never disappoints!!

We loved the place but it wasn’t as clean as it could have been. The floors were dirty, our feet were black after an hour. The bedding and bathroom rugs were dirty. We had to wash the bedding after driving 12 hours to get there.
There is no direction on how to get to the beach.

1304 Fairway Oaks Villa Review
We enjoyed our stay at 1304 Fairway Oaks Villa. Nicely decorated and equipped. It would have been nice to know about the nearby construction. The only recommendation we would make regarding the villa is to change or supplement the window treatments that are quite see-through in the evenings and allow in quite a bit of light in the mornings.

Great Vacation
We've been to Kiawah many times over the years. This rental is a bit further from the beach than we've usually stayed at but we didn't find that to be a negative. We enjoyed the beautiful golf course view. The property was in first class condition. This was our second time booking a rental through Akers Ellis and both times everything worked great.
