Kiawah Island, SC
If you’re a golfer, you don’t need to be told about Kiawah Island – it’s on every serious player’s bucket list. The resort offers five elite courses designed by the likes of Pete Dye, Tom Watson, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and Clyde Johnston and has hosted several championships, including the 1991 Ryder Cup and the 2012 PGA Championship. As an extended getaway or meeting destination, Kiawah Island is unsurpassed. The AAA Five-Diamond/Forbes Five-Star Sanctuary at Kiawah Island, a magnificent oceanfront hotel and spa, offers 255 rooms and suites, as well as more than 18,000 square feet of dedicated function space. Additional lodging in nearly 600 resort villas and private homes – plus meeting space in the separate, freestanding East Beach Conference Center and three golf course clubhouses – offers even more options and flexibility for events and accommodations.
