The calls of migrating shorebirds, the crash of breakers, and even the occasional sighting of a bobcat captivate residents of beautiful Kiawah Island, a tranquil barrier island in the South Carolina Lowcountry and one of the top-ranked resorts in the United States. Kiawah Island is famous as a world-class golf destination—featuring six highly rated courses. The Kiawah Island Club also offers a full-service spa, a tennis and fitness center, and, for the finest in dining, three opulent clubhouses adorned with art and antiques.
Kiawah Island was developed with the philosophy that man should intrude upon nature only quietly and with respect. The carefully executed master plan—a marvel of both conservation and development—balances the social, recreational, and commercial needs of the island’s residents. The gentle approach to the land and the sensitivity to its furred and feathered inhabitants encourages wildlife to flourish, further enhancing the island’s appeal.
Kiawah Island is divided into many diverse neighborhoods offering unique homes and homesites with distinctive amenities. Each of these neighborhoods was carefully designed to showcase stunning views, allowing residents to enjoy the beauty of the island without leaving the comfort of their home. Whether preferring ocean, maritime forest, golf, marsh, lagoon, or river panoramas, there is a Kiawah Island neighborhood for every taste. Just as exceptional as the scenery they capture, the homes within these eclectic neighborhoods include different architectural styles ranging from English garden cottages and traditional hardiplank beach homes to shingle-style residences. Or if a neighborhood convenient to favorite amenities is preferred, Kiawah offers homes within walking distance to golf, fitness, and tennis facilities.
The quality of life on Kiawah Island is unparalleled, providing the best of luxury amenities while offering a tranquil natural setting and an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
