“The Sanderling” (3040 Southerly Way) Experience Waterfront Bliss, Adjacent to The Dunlin Hotel
Discover "The Sanderling," a captivating waterfront bungalow nestled along a quiet creek off the stunning Kiawah River. This isn't just a place to stay; it's a gateway to a refined Lowcountry experience, located just adjacent to The Dunlin Hotel, an Auberge Resorts Collection property. Indulge in pampering treatments at Aster Spa, savor exquisite meals at Linette's fine dining, and explore all the high-end offerings of The Dunlin, all within a few steps of your door.

Beyond Perfect!
This property was spectacular! Water views from every angle, too! I really could go on and on all day about how amazing this place is, so here are a few highlights: the neighborhood is super high end and quiet; pool and amenities are superb and the setting of the spring house near the water is just gorgeous; pool staff is top notch, and extremely attentive; the bathtub in the bungalow is pure luxury; bed was so comfy that I have not slept this well in so so long; the trails are paved and make for the most lovely bike ride; the farm and animals were beautiful to see along the way…this entire vacation was perfection! Wow! This vacation was a splurge for us after a very stressful year, and it delivered on all that we hoped it would be, and then some!
