Kiawah Island is a great place for a family beach vacation, and this villa in Inlet Cove was perfect for my family of 5. My family has been visiting Kiawah for 27 years, and Inlet Cove is a great community, with the best community pool on the island, and walkable to the beach. The villa was clean, well maintained, and host communication was very good. We experienced a dishwasher failure during the stay, and it was fixed within hours of reporting it. If I had any dissatisfactions with the stay, it is with the ever-growing list of KICA rules that are ever-changing, and difficult for a short-term renter to keep up with.

Wonderful stay. Host was amazingly helpful and responsive. The house was perfect for our family trip for spring break. Clean and well stocked with amenities and supplies. My daughter loved the games that came in handy on rainy day! Perfectly located to walk to the beach, the kayak launch and bike trails.

Relaxing. Close to beach and pool access.

Visited for a week with 2 teens. Easy access to the beach and pool was a blessing to keep them entertained. The unit is very well maintained. Susie was very communicative and provided all the information we needed up front we did not need to contact her at all. Very pleasant stay.

Great home base for getaway weekend

My group of friends came for an event and this was exactly what we needed. It gave us all enough space and it was very quiet. We loved the neighborhood, walkability, and option to get a bike though we didn’t this time. We would happily stay here again.

We loved our stay! The neighborhood is so quiet and there are bike paths everywhere. The pool and beach are a quick walk or bike away. Bring your own beach towels and beach/pool toys. None are provided at the home and you will definitely need them. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect Kiawah Stay

Property manager was wonderful to work with from beginning to end. This is our second trip to Kiawah staying at Inlet Cove. The beach is a quick walk as well as the pool and inlet. Sunsets at the inlet should not be missed! We rented bikes for the week as well. No problems with Wi-Fi. Thanks for sharing your home!

Great cottage for families and with pool access!

We enjoyed our stay at this three bedroom cottage. It was nice to have access to the community pool and dock. It was never crowded during July 4th week. We highly recommend renting bikes from Alligator Bike Rentals. They were very nice bikes and we rode them everyday to the pool and on the very nice paved bike trails throughout the island. The beach is also just a short bike ride away.

Great little place in Inlet Cove

We've been coming to this end of Inlet Cove since the 1980's. It's still the same area, with the same types (though updated on the inside) of houses. We loved it! Easy to get to, tucked away at the entrance to the Island, a short shady walk to the beach and easy access to the General Store and Freshfields. What more could you ask for? We can't wait to get back already!

West Beach Hidden Gem

We’ve been coming to Kiawah for 30 years but have never stayed in Inlet Cove. This is a magical, peaceful area on the island with excellent access to the remote west beach and river. A quiet well maintained neighborhood with their own pool and a maginificent sunset dock and porch. Susie is a great owner - very responsive and easy to work with. We’ll be back.

78 Bellmeade Inlet Cove - Wonferful

If experiencing the quiet wonder of low tide strandfishing, wading through tidal pools to witness hermit crab antics, starfish and sand dollars is a must see and do on the point at Kiawah River - this location places you within the quickest reach. If you love pure, unadulterated, gorgeous sunsets over the marsh, this bungalow is prime. If you enjoy quick access to Freshfields, well, you get the point. Plenty of room. Very cozy and superb bike riding. We'll be back again. And again.

Stay at Kiawah Island Rental Home

We had a wonderful stay at Kiawah Island. We had a few issues with this rental. We had uninvited guests, 5-6 big beetles visited us over the week we were there. Not sure if this is normal for this area or not but was not what we were expecting. We did not receive extra trash bags and requested them twice but they never arrived. Another T.V. in the 2nd bedroom would have been nice. The pool is a little bit far away for my like. The beach was close and if you figure it out you can drive to it past the guard house and around. The shopping center after the roundabout is close and very nice.

Look No Further

First of all, what distinguishes this place is the property manager. We have been coming to Kiawah and Inlet Cove for many years, but this is the first time we stayed in one of Susie's places. She is superb. And best of all, she is a Kiawah homeowner and has first hand knowledge of the properties and the area. It was such a pleasure to deal with Susie rather than a firm with a distant customer-service rep. The house is just as advertised and in the pictures. It was spotless upon arrival and is in a perfect location. You can hear the ocean from the house, and the beach is a short walk away. We loved walking to the beach as well as the river every day. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the house is well-decorated with a clean, uncluttered design. We would definitely rent this place again, and will always begin out search at kiawahbyowner.com
