This beautifully crafted Charleston beach home just underwent a renovation in Summer 2019 expanding it to 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. It is located on gorgeous Kiawah Island, just a short drive from the gate of the exclusive Vanderhorst Plantation. It`s the perfect family getaway to experience all that Kiawah has to offer: tennis, golfing, biking, fishing, water sports, wildlife, and more. This popular home features modern furnishings, expansive bedrooms, and a private pool. It is the ideal combination of relaxation and fun for any group of travelers.
The first floor of the home was entirely redesigned to highlight the bright, spacious floor plan that makes entertaining and relaxing throughout the living, kitchen, and dining areas a breeze. The main living room sports contemporary, comfortable furniture, a large flat-screen TV, and an abundance of windows allowing for plenty of natural light. The open, fully-equipped kitchen consists of all needed cookware, an abundance of counter-top space and cabinets, and top-of-the-line appliances. The large dining area has a gorgeous wood table and seating for eight guests. There are also three bar stools for additional seating.
Three of the six bedrooms are located on the first level of the home. The grand master suite (Bedroom #1) is comprised of a king bed, flat-screen TV, and private master bathroom with his and her sinks, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. This room also has a private open sitting area that features a sofa-bed and access to the back patio and pool. The second bedroom (Bedroom #2) contains two twin beds, private bathroom, and direct access to the back patio and pool. The third bedroom on this level (Bedroom #3) has a king bed and private bathroom as well.
Heading up the newly installed staircase to the second floor of the home, you’ll discover that the home’s recent expansion and renovation offers three more bedrooms and two additional bathrooms. At the end of the hallway, the fourth bedroom (Bedroom #4) has a queen bed and a private bathroom. The fifth middle bedroom (Bedroom #5) has a queen bed and shares a Jack-n-Jill bathroom with the final bedroom (Bedroom #6), which has a full-size bed. All rooms are equipped with a TV. The laundry room area is also on the second floor of the home.
Step outside and you`ll find the home`s most exciting feature: the stunning back deck with private pool. Pool can be heated for an additional $175 per day, four day minimum.

Beautiful Kiawah Home
This is a beautiful home and was perfect for our family. We loved the pool and easy access to the beach by bike or car. The kitchen was great for cooking, with plenty of dishes, pots and pans, etc. The freezer was not working and was unable to be repaired during our stay, but the management company responded quickly and brought bags of ice that could be stored in the basement/garage freezer. We would love to return in the future.

Review for 195 Governors Drive on Kiawah Island
We would our overall experience with this rental house a 4. The pool was a tremendous hit for everyone of all ages. The kitchen was large and well supplied for cooking. Each couple took a night to cook, so we used all of the different cooking equipment, as well as the grill several times. The location to the boardwalk we used for the beach was a nice distance for a bike ride; plenty of parking spaces as well for anyone wanting to drive their car to the beach. The house was very clean when we arrived. The amount of seating areas for eating and watching TV for 13 people was great. The 2 main improvements I would suggest: add curtains to all of the bedroom windows and oil all of the doors. They were extremely squeaky which made trying to stay quiet in the mornings impossible. With no curtains in most of the bedrooms, it allowed the sun in for those trying to sleep past 7:00 and you could see in the twin bed bedroom from the pool area. The description of the house on the website was extremely accurate. We ate twice at the Player's Pub for dinner. We all enjoyed each meal that we ordered. We also ordered beach chairs and umbrellas from their website and that was a huge luxury to not to have to carry chairs to the beach each day. Overall, I would highly recommend renting this house to a family member or a friend. Our group was discussing renting this house again for next summer.

April Break
We had a wonderful stay at 195 Governor’s Drive. Beautiful, clean, and spacious home with gorgeous pool and outdoor area. This was our first vacation in over a year and ESPM did a wonderful job making sure our stay was perfect. We will definitely be returning and will only rent through ESPM.

Such a great trip with many wonderful memories made at 195 Governor Dr. The house was set up exactly what we needed for our own private space. The land around the house was beautiful. The bikes the pool, shopping and the food on the island did not disappoint. Already planning to come back!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.♥️
