Vanderhorst Plantation

5/5(1 area review)

While visiting Vanderhorst Plantation, you might make a stop by sights like Kiawah Island Beach and Ocean Course.

Vanderhorst Plantation
Watch the sunset from Kiawah Beachwalker Park, Kiawah Island, South Carolina. Kiawah is a golf-centered resort island with lots of palmettos, pine trees, and waterbirds. The dolphins practice "strand feeding" here, which is the act of herding the fish up on the beach along with a wave and wriggling up on the sand to retrieve them.

The 3-bedroom villa was in a great location and super comfortable and cozy. It's short one start because we couldn't make coffee. There were no filters for the regular coffee pot, and they didn't provide pods for the Keurig.

The staff was very courteous. The hot tub and heated swimming pool were great. We came the week after Thanksgiving and the hotel and town had about 10% of the normal traffic. It is a very slow season.

Had brunch at The Sanctuary Hotel. Just the drive there was amazing with golf courses, big oak trees, Spanish moss and palms. The Sanctuary Hotel was a stunning experience I'l never forget. The brunch at Jasmine Porch was unbelievable delicious.

Despite the continued growth on the island, it still maintains impeccable plantings, golf courses, and bike trails. It is South Carolina's finest vacation spot.
