Beautiful home and nice location close to beachwalker
Communication through the rental company was very clear and efficient. I got emails well in advance. When we checked in we were blown away with how clean and the ambient spa music playing on checkin. The cottage was beautiful. If I had any issues with the rental it was that there’s no ceiling fans in the entire house and it gets very warm when you have nothing circulating the air conditioner. The thermostat does not go below 68. Fortunately the first two nights it was cold in kiawah so we just cut it off and stayed cool. The house was fantastic other than that and had close walking access to beachwalker park and the ocean. We would def stay again but would bring fans to plug into bedside tables

Inlet Cove summer vacation
Loved Inlet Cove #80. We have stayed in many Inlet Cove houses and this one was one of the best. We did have an air conditioning issue at the end of our stay which was partially rectified. Called the after hours number to possibly get some fans, but we were continually cut off. So the last 2 nights and day were quite warm and uncomfortable. My husband was dripping wet from sweat the morning that we left. We were hoping for some compensation from the rental company but that has not happened.

Excellent, but a couple minor items need addressed
Positive:
- Absolutely loved this vacation. Location is fantastically placed right between the beach and the pool. A 3 minute bike ride to either. Also very close to the Freshfields marketplace (grocery, restaurants, shopping) on the west end of the island. House was clean (mostly - see below). Nice touch to have music getting us.
Negative:
- nearly every house on the street had operable lighting on the steps. This house didn’t. Very dangerous and hard to see when trying to walk down steps at night for the nightly dog walk. FIX THIS IMMEDIATELY!
- garbage can lid was broken. Super easy fix. Just buy a new garbage can or go the extra mile and build it into one of the cabinets (which would also keep the dogs out of it)
- shelves in closets were very dirty. Almost looked like rodent droppings. This was nasty.
- I asked owner prior to arrival if there were any beach items there we could use. They said no, and recommended a few rental companies. However, upon arrival we discovered 4 boogie boards, several beach chairs, and a beach cart and umbrella (these two were in rough shape). But the owner’s response prompted me to buy beach chairs and boogie boards and haul them 12 hours south. I would’ve appreciated an honest and accurate assessment of items available. I recognize this is a risk with a rental company as they cannot keep up on the detail of each property they manage.
Suggestions:
- provide a bike rack. Could easily be placed next to the drive where there is plenty of room (like the neighbors have done)
Overall:
- highly recommended! We will most certainly be interested in renting again!

This is our second time staying at this property and it is perfectly equipped for our needs. Inlet cove is unlike any other place on Kiawah Island. The home was clean, in a great location, and the property manager was very easy to communicate with.

Very pretty, but a problem with ants
We really enjoyed the decor and updated features in this unit. However, there was a problem with ants throughout the entire week, resulting in the unit not feeling well-maintained from a pest control perspective. I have emailed and texted with the property owners repeatedly, and they have been ignoring me. The most response I have received was that it is a busy time, and maybe someone will get back to me after the summer rental season. I am frustrated.

What a great place to enjoy Kiawah
There were four adults, one teenager and one older child that stayed at this house. Not only was the house fully equipped with everything that we needed for our stay for seven days, but it was clean, well appointed, and fantastically close to the beach. What a bonus to have a gated community where the kids can ride their bikes and not worry about constant traffic.
I’m so impressed with the way this house was managed, so much so that we immediately booked our house for next year with the same company.

Inlet Cove
We have stayed at Kiawah before, but not Inlet Cove. It was a nice little "side neighborhood," and we would stay there again. What is unique about it is the access to the Kiawah River. If you are into kayaking, this would be a great spot for you! And yet, the beach is still only a 5 minute walk. So it was nice to have that variety. Place was clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked, etc.

Kiawah cottage
I would say that this property needs a little tweaking. While the neighborhood was very nice and in a good location to the beach and the pool, the property itself needs some updating. When you first enter the unit, it is very dark. There is very little ceiling lighting and is mostly lit by lamps. The lamps are dull and make it difficult to play games, color with the kids, cook, etc. I think updating the lighting in the unit would make a huge difference. Next, the rugs in the unit were in desperate need of cleaning or replacing. There were several doggie doo doo stains, one that was very fresh. I did call the rental agency to let them know and they said they would have housekeeping take care of it, but nothing was ever done about it. There is little storage in the kitchen for groceries and no television in one of the two bedrooms. The listing noted that there was a grill available, but it was locked up during our stay. Finally there were cleaning products under the sinks in the kitchen and bathrooms that were not locked up. This is a potential safety hazard for anyone with young children. I would consider locking these up for future rentals. We having been coming to Kiawah and renting through the resort for over ten years. I would say this rental does not measure up to the premier units that we have stayed in. I will say the unit has potential but needs a little tlc. I really did enjoy the location and quiet neighborhood. It was really nice and safe for my young children to enjoy bike riding in.
