Description

The Birdie is tucked away on a serene culdesac, a hidden gem in the highly coveted Vanderhost Plantation area of Kiawah Island, South Carolina. The 5-bedroom house features a large backyard pool and hot tub—guests have the ability to heat or chill the pool for year-round enjoyment. 

The home underwent an extensive renovation in 2023-2024, with high-end finishes chosen to create an airy and comfortable beach home. Designed with luxurious beach-style living in mind, The Birdie comfortably accommodates large groups with its open floor plan and two expansive dining tables. Yet, it still offers abundant privacy to guests in each of the five bedrooms, ensuring a relaxing stay for everyone.

This charming beach house is conveniently located just a half mile from the beach. Hop on one of the provided bikes and cruise down the shady bike path, Alle of the Oaks, to beach access No. 32; you may even spot one of the local alligators in a pond along the way!

Everyone will love the screened-in back porch, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or an evening cocktail while watching the sun dip behind the palm fronds. The back porch flows into the backyard, overlooking the expansive pool and patio, which is excellent for families to gather outdoors, BBQ on the grill, enjoy a game of ping-pong, and swim in the pool. After a day at the beach or hitting the links, end the day by jumping into the private pool or soothing your muscles in the hot tub spa.

The Birdie is equipped with numerous extra amenities, a rarity in other rental homes on the island. The homeowners thoughtfully provided everything you need for your beach adventures; you will find the house stocked—over a dozen beach chairs, six bikes, a beach wagon, boogie boards, beach towels, coolers, beach toys galore and more! The homeowners, who have been vacationing with their kids on the island for over a decade, have outfitted their homes with all the extras they wished they had found in other rentals, ensuring your vacation is a crowd-pleaser!

The large kitchen has new appliances and plenty of culinary utensils to make a simple breakfast or an elaborate family meal. The bonus is that there are two dishwashers because vacation is for relaxing, not extra dishes!

The home features 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms; all beds have high-quality foam mattresses and Sweetgrass's signature triple-sheet bedding for a truly restful night’s sleep. There is also a half bathroom and full laundry room on the main floor.

The primary suite on the main floor overlooks the maritime forest in the backyard. The primary bathroom features double vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower—a bonus amenity is the heated tile floors. The primary suite also has a large work desk for a quick conference call, and in case of a work emergency, a color printer is available for guests to use.  

The upstairs has a large second living area for kids to escape and play after a long day at the beach. The home was designed by a mom and is stocked with board games, puzzles, and plenty of books for kids of all ages. There is even a fun play tent for imaginary games—we even have rainy days covered!

Kiawah is a natural haven, unlike any other beach resort on the East Coast. Known for its golf courses and miles of pristine beaches, it is a place that offers so much more—where everyone can find their favorite outdoor adventure. Biking, tennis, pickleball, paddleboarding, kayaking, bird watching, and saltwater fishing are just some of the other activities families enjoy while visiting the island. What will you discover when you visit Kiawah?

Book your stay today for an unparalleled experience at The Birdie; you will unwind, create lasting family memories, and see why people return to this unique coastal retreat year after year.

Words can't express our love for the Birdie! It was our refuge and blessing after Hurricane Helene. It provided peace, comfort, fun and rest. Such a tasteful and lovely home - I could see glimpses of Natalie's impeccable good taste in every room. We especially love your artwork and tile/countertop choices. Thankful for this place at a hard time for us. So much love!

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home! It was the perfect place for our best friends to join us + enjoy beautiful Kiawah for our wedding weekend. We got married at Cassique on October 4th! Such a beautiful home to get ready for such a special day + we did our first look by the pool. Thank you again!

Your home is beautiful and so generously stocked with everything we could possibly need for the perfect stay on Kiawah Island. We so enjoyed our bike ride to the beach, and used your Shibumi when our cabana broke on a very gusty day! The pool was wonderful and once we figured out the hot tub, we loved it. We will definitely be return customers!

It has everything

We had a wonderful stay in your beautiful home. We've been coming to Kiawah for 27 years and just sold a family home. This was our first time renting. You really thought of everything. The house was vey well stocked with lots of extras making our stay easy and comfortable. We hope you enjoy your home for many years to come.

Just wow!! The Birdie was so welcoming, so comfortable yet refined and tasteful! We had a glorious week at Kiawah thanks to the Birdie! We loved the master suite, the upstairs oasis for our teens, the thoughtful touches like bikes with cup and phone holders, tons of dishes and cookware, beach towels, coolers and totebags, and labels on the light switches! These owners thought of everything. I would go back to the Birdie in a second!

Wonderful home.

Birdie was a wonderful place to spend our family vacation. The homeowners thought of every detail providing everting you need to enjoy a day at the beach fro Coolers to towels and umbrellas. The house had a well stocked kitchen with basic supplies. There were large size bottles of shampoo in the bathrooms as well as hairdryers and sound machines in the bedroom. It felt like home for a week! I would recommend it highly.

We enjoyed our stay at the Birdie! Owners have stocked the house with all you need for your stay, from beach towels, beach chairs, bikes, and beach toys for the kids. Short bike ride to beach and lovely pool in the back yard. Pack your clothes and enjoy! We would rent again in future-Kiawah is one of our favorite family vacation spots.

We had a wonderful time at your property! Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our group of 12. The new pool was so enjoyable and the walk to the beach wasn’t too far from the house. All the amenities and extras included such as bikes, beach towels and coolers made things so much easier!

Absolutely beautiful vacation home. We had 5 couples of various ages and there was plenty of room and privacy for everyone. The pool, backyard was a peaceful and enjoyable place to relax. The kitchen was very well equipped, no need to bring your own supplies. Beds were comfortable and there were plenty of beach towels. The bikes, chairs, beach supplies were plentiful also. I highly recommend staying here.

Loved it!

A house we would LOVE to come back to. So well stocked (kitchen has all the goods), well appointed (beach gear galore), and well decorated. Easy walk or ride to beach. We were visiting friends who are club members, so a little bit of a drive to most of those amenities but easy nonetheless.

Great house!

Great house! Everything was clean and well kept. The location was great for us with an easy walk to the beach, close to Kiawah amenities, and the house had everything we needed for our stay. We will definitely be going back in the future.
