How can you get into Kiawah if you aren’t staying there? It’s gated with security.

There's shops and restaurants outside the gate.

That’s called Fresh Fields.

Peace and quiet, limited amount of people allowed on the island. You must be a permanent resident or a renter or you are not allowed on – of course there are exceptions like golf reservations or dinner reservations, but those are at a minimum.

There are some excellent restaurants on IOP and quick access to Charleston.

It’s way easier to get into Kiawah than it is to get into Seabrook. All you have to do is tell them at the gate where you’re going.

I didn't think Kiawah was much of a resort. There was literally nothing to do, but beach. I like Hilton head more.

Huh? We’ve been going for over 10 years. In addition to the pools, spa, golf, tennis, bike trails, Pickleball, there’s a nature program where you can go on a bird or alligator hunt, paddle boarding, kayaking, surfing, sea turtle watching, and an entire kids program. What more do you want?

PP probably wants putt putt, go carts and strip mall seafood.

There really isn’t anything that great about it. Not saying it is bad by any means. Just isn’t over the top in any ways
