Atrocious Customer Service
We didn't even go. My mother passed away 3 days prior to our check-in and when I called to try to save a little something out of this tragedy, all I was told was I should have purchased travel insurance. SERIOUSLY!!!! You people are inhuman and deplorable. Nothing...not one consideration was given to me and my wife by you and your idiot proxies. No partial refund, no reschedule...nothing. I will make it my mission to ensure that Vrbo, Vacasa, and the rest of the people involved in this fiasco never get business from anyone I know ever again.

Beautiful beach location
Nice, clean, attractive and modern condo with great access to retail options and a wonderful secure walkway to the gorgeous beach. Parking pass process was awkward, and it would be nice to have beach chairs and umbrella for guest use.

Charming Studio
Great location for the price. Nice property with no disturbances from neighbors. The building has an elevator. Our room was a studio with a balcony. Kitchen and bath was well equipped. Hand soap provided, a few laundry pods (if needed) and a few dishwasher packs. A few beach chairs and umbrellas were noted at the property. We had our own. It is not newly updated, but the price is fair. Downside was the key fob to the beach access did not work and management took about 24 hours to tell us we needed to go to Freshfields for the key fob. No big deal b/c a public beach access is next door. Downside of not using the private access is no water to clean your chairs and feet when you exit the beach. Also the laundry is complementary (I believe one on each floor) but the dryers (there were two) on the 4th floor did not dry the clothes. We didn't try the other floors. Overall, a great stay. We love Kiawah and riding the bikes and the wildlife.

Overall Great!
Wonderful location with beach access and perfect size for 2 people for a weekend. Any group larger it would be very tight for a studio space with such a small kitchen area and sleeping arrangements. Easy check in, clean room and linens, and very comfortable bed made it great for what we needed

Great location and clean!
My wife and I go to Kiawah Island every summer for a golf tournament. This was our first time staying at Shipwatch and we both loved how close it was to the beach and to the front gate. We got to the Freshfields area every night so very convenient. The room itself was a great studio, very clean and cozy. Would highly recommend!

Small but nice.
We enjoyed this property. It could use a little updating but was nice overall and was clean. Fan & light on microwave would not work, broken drawer in kitchen, towel rank off the wall in the bathroom. Greatly appreciated the air worked great & always plenty of hot water.

Loved Kiawah, issues with property manager
The condo was nice and it's in a great location. Unfortunately, the property wasn't cleaned and ready for check-in until 5:30pm. In addition, the property manager forgot to tell us anything about the gate key for beach access, and we had to interrupt another portion of our day to retrieve it. Also, the patio and patio furniture were pretty dirty and unusable. I would stay at the property again but would like the property manager to tighten things up.
