If you are in a villa or home on the island through Airbnb/Vrbo and want transportation to the wedding, make sure LG has your address (803-312-4636). She'll text you a specific time the outside transportation company will be by to pick you up! If you are a guest of the resort (booked a house or villa through Kiawah Island Golf Resort) there's already on-island transportation provided whenever you want all weekend around the Island, but for the wedding we reserved extra KIGR transportation for y'alls villas to be sure there's not a backup - so ALSO text LG if you know that you would like to be picked up for the wedding (803-312-4636)!
Hotel
This luxury oceanfront hotel, and location of the ceremony and reception, delivers 5-Star service and unequaled accommodations. To book a room at The Sanctuary, please call (800) 654-2924 and ask for Sanctuary reservations. Please mention the Denny Blackwell Wedding to receive a 20% discount off nightly room rates.
House Or Rental
Use the link below to view available villas/homes for the weekend. Guests should call 1-800-654-2924 and ask for Villa Reservations. You will be connected to a reservations agent at that time. You should tell the agent that you need to book a villa/house/room for the Denny Blackwell Wedding or can use booking number 17268. This will extend the discount off nightly rates on villas, homes, and the Sanctuary. Note- we recommend the East Beach Villas as they are closest to the Sanctuary, but please reach out to LG if you have any questions regarding location! Complimentary transportation service around the island is provided for any Kiawah Island Resort guests.
Hotel
We do not have a room block reserved at the Andell Inn by Mariott in Freshfields Village (it will be less expensive for you to book as a AAA or Marriott Rewards member, than in the room block). For this reason, please book as early as possible if you'd like stay here! Please be aware that it is not on Kiawah Island Resort proper, but we will have transportation arranged to get you to the wedding.
House Or Rental
When using Airbnb or VRBO, double check that the property is actually on Kiawah Island as they sometimes pull homes in from other areas nearby but not on the island. Also look out for homes that may include resort amenities, this is an added bonus.
Flight
We really recommend booking travel early as Charleston and Kiawah are popular destinations. Kiawah Island is a 45 minute drive from Charleston International Airport. Kiawah is a gated island which requires guests to have car passes displayed in their windshields. We will have passes waiting at the gate for all who RSVP.
Rental Car
We suggest renting and/or sharing a car as Ubers, Lyfts, and taxis are hard to come by and quite expensive. Once on the island, rideshare service is unavailable. A car will be useful when traveling around Kiawah to restaurants, the beach, golf, and upon return to the airport. Transportation to and from planned wedding events will be provided. Please let us know if you have any questions!
