THANK YOU!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The condo was perfect for our family of four. It was so much better than staying at a hotel because we had two full bathrooms, a kitchen and more. It was the perfect amount of space for us not to feel on top of each other by the end of the trip. As the mom, I loved that I didn't have to do anything before checking out. That made a HUGE difference to not have a laundry list (pun intended) of things to handle before leaving. The balcony was great. Access into the unit was easy. The credit for beach gear was perfect. THANK YOU!!

Beautiful views!
We had a nice time, as always, during our long weekend in Kiawah. The condo was clean when we arrived. We didn't have any major issues with the condo. The few things we noticed were no tall glasses/plastic cups for drinks, the kitchen faucet was missing the button for changing the water stream, we did figure out how to change it, although it was awkward.

Very nice condo!
This condo met all our needs. Clean and updated. Slight issue with the dryer vent, but other than that it was great. My only complaint wasn’t with the condo but the building. It needs to be maintained better. Doors need painting and hallways and stairwells need cleaning. Other than that I would highly recommend 5135. Views are amazing!!

Thank you for your feedback! We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We will pass your comments regarding the building to the HOA for consideration.

Best condo in Windswept so far
We’ve stayed at three different condos in the big building, and this was the best yet. It’s updated, has good TV and streaming options, and a marvelous shower. Only complaint was the difficulty of using the sliding door onto the balcony.

Beautiful views, nice condo
The property is really nice. Who wouldn’t want to watch the sunrise from the balcony or bedroom? The views are beautiful, and the location is convenient to the Sanctuary Hotel. My only complaint is that the furniture doesn’t comfortably fit in the main bedroom. The footboard sticks out, and my husband and I got multiple bruises from running into it. If they adjusted the bed frame or removed the chest in front of it, you could comfortably walk around the bed. Also, it doesn’t look like it’s been cleaned under the beds. We noticed when we checked that nothing got under the beds upon leaving. Overall though, the condo was wonderful and we would stay there again. Thx!

Gorgeous Beach Villa
This is the second time we have rented this beautiful, comfortable, and clean condo in Windswept. The views of the beach are exceptional, and we enjoy the location in the middle of Kiawah, close to the Sanctuary hotel. Our whole family including teen children love biking the island in the morning, reading and lunch on the balcony, beach time in the afternoon, and walks in the evening. We cook most of our meals during our stay, and the kitchen makes this easy and a joy. We have visited Kiawah every summer for the past 6 years, and it always leaves us feeling refreshed and renewed!

We returned to Kiawah as empty nesters after many years of vacationing there with our children. This condo was perfect! It was clean, had comfortable beds & the kitchen well stocked. The views of both sunrise & sunset were breathtaking! The location right on the beach was perfect. We’d return again anytime & hope to do so soon.

Our family had a wonderful week in this condo. It had a well stocked kitchen and an amazing location. The beds were all comfortable and the master shower was really nice! The condo provided a really cozy and comfortable place away from the beach, but yet because of the view it still felt like you were at the beach! We plan to stay here again.

A perfect beach week
We had a wonderful beach experience. The rental unit was perfect for the two of us, with easy beach access. The master bedroom was a bit cramped because of the over-sized furniture. My only recommendation would be the addition of a table lamp in the living room area. Akers Ellis Rentals, LLC is a great company to deal with and we hope to rent from them again next year.

Kiawah condo - convenient and comfortable
AE Rentals made access to this condo very convenient - passes thru security printed at home before we left, and lock box code was emailed to us while we were already en route ( 2 day drive). It meant meant no need to stop anywhere to pick up keys. Might be a difficult procedure for someone without printer or email access. Condo was nicely remodeled. There is some wear and tear, staining, on bedroom carpets, otherwise spotlessly clean. Balcony is pretty small, especially with such bulky furniture, but it is still oceanfront. I would use this company again.

We had originally booked a cottage on Kiawah Island and when the condition was not what we expected, we contacted Akers Ellis and they immediately addressed the situation by offering the Windswept Villa.

R&R at Kiawah
Overall we were very happy with our condo. It was well furnished, very clean and had a beautiful view of the ocean from our balcony. The only improvement I would suggest is that it is time for some new mattresses. The current ones are quite worn. The living room couch was a bit "sqaushy" too but it was a sofa bed. But otherwise it was just perfect.

Low water pressure in the kitchen sink ( called but it was not resolved)
Waging machine did not work on the "normal" cycle.
Furniture is a bit formal for our taste.

Strong 5 from me
The team at Akers Ellis gets a strong 5 from me. They were a pleasure to work with. If/when I come to Kiawah in the future, I will be sure to connect with your company first for rental availability.

5 in every way!
It is our pleasure to rate Akers Ellis a 5 in every aspect. We appreciated the app that allowed us to access all the info we needed regarding our rental, Taylor West was extremely helpful with our questions and special request, and our Parkside Villa was extremely clean and perfect for a long weekend vacation. It was our first time visiting Kiawah during the month of September. We enjoyed it so much that my husband actually commented that we should plan a two week vacation to Kiawah next September. I am already making plansJ. Thank you for helping to make our Kiawah visit a relaxing, memorable experience.

It was a 5. If you could have turned the temp up on the beach, it would have been a 10. We definitely want to come back and visit longer. Who knows, perhaps a place to buy.

Beautifully furnished unit
We enjoyed our stay at 5135 Windswept. It was beautifully furnished and clean. Overall, it was very nice and we were very comfortable. We have stayed in that Windswept building for the past six years. The unit was lovely and we truly enjoyed it! Another plus was the information in the unit (notebook) about places to eat in Charleston and other various information (phone numbers).

Thank you again! We can't wait to come back!

Considering the destination Kiawah, the company's expertise in leasing operations, and finally the condo, I would give a 4+ rating overall. Some floors seemed a little dirty, but the balance of the condo was very clean!

We are definitely onboard for another visit next year. Thanks for everything.

Please thank everyone for us and we appreciate their thoughtfulness.

We enjoyed our vacation experience at 5135 Windswept. We do have one suggestion: seating for at least 4 on the porch. We'd suggest a bar table with 4 bar chairs, to enable easy viewing of the beach.

Awesome - Selfishly reluctant to share such a great place!
Truly a superior rental villa property. Ideal location to all island amenities. Commanding views of the beachfront. Wonderfully appointed kitchen with all conveniences. Fantastic master bath, and a great night's sleep. Keyed and coded entry system could not be easier, nor safer. Definitely on our return list. One week never enough at Kiawah !

A Great Vacation
A very nice condo. In great condition. Some things that should be looked at include the following:

The elevator temp. was well over 100 degrees. Use of energy saving bulbs wouls save money and reduce heat build up.

There are no serving plates in the condo.

A luggage cart to help on check in and check out days would be VERY helpful.

Have stayed on the island many times and the view from 5135 is among the best.

Fabulous!!!
We had an incredible week at Kiawah while staying in this wonderful Villa! As the description states, it has been fully remodeled top to bottom and beautifully done. We can't say enough about it. The location within Kiawah is perfect, and the views and the breeze on the 5th floor balcony were incredible. Selfishly I wish I could send you somewhere else so this beauty stays perfect for our next stay, but i can't do that. Additionally, the property management firm was very easy to deal with during the rental process and very responsive to minor requests we had during our stay. We hope you enjoy as much as we did!
