Description The Ocean Haven: Johns Island

Moments from the ocean and minutes from the golf course, this Kiawah Island home is a haven for golfers, beach lovers and anyone craving total R&R. Located within the private Vanderhorst Plantation and overlooking the fairways of Osprey Point, it’s surrounded by greenery, creating a breezy sense of seclusion. Outside, the poolside terrace invites lazy afternoons in the sun and drawn-out family dinners, while inside is thoughtfully equipped for group stays, from the spacious kitchen to the range of communal spaces. The beach is an easy bike ride away – if you can drag yourself away from the heated pool – and the historic streets of Charleston are close enough for a fuss-free trip, too.

Home truths:
*Guests at the villa don’t have access to the Kiawah Island Resort Pools of Fitness Centre.
*Guests aren’t permitted to use the fireplace.
*Basic cooking items such as oil and seasonings aren’t stocked, so you might want to bring your own.
*The swimming pool can be heated for a fee. It’s also not fenced, so little ones will need to be supervised at all times.
