    Golf Outing at kiawah island resort - nov 12-17


    Trip Leader: Ruth D’Alessandro (703-795-3365) 

    TRIP IS NOW FILLED, WAITLIST IS OPEN

    Cost: Full Golf Package $1,960 An additional $60 will be added for non-ski club members. Full payment is due at time of registration.

    Join us for a 5-night stay with 4 days of golf vacation on Kiawah Island this November. Kiawah Island does not allow golfers to play their courses unless we stay at the resort; therefore, this is a unique opportunity to play golf and enjoy the amenities offered at Kiawah. Let me know as soon as possible if you would like to play 2 or 3 days of golf and the overall price will be adjusted accordingly. We will arrive Sunday afternoon. Check-in is at 4 pm.  We will be staying at the East Beach Villas. These Villas overlook golf courses, lagoons, a park and the ocean. They have full size kitchens, and washers and dryers. The 3-bedroom Villa per person price is based on one golfer per bedroom. However, most of the 3-bedroom Villas have two bathrooms rather than three.  In addition to golf, Kiawah Island offers more than 30 miles of bike trails. The Sanctuary Hotel offers spa treatments and facials, shopping, dining and is one mile from our Villas.

    We will be playing 4 golf courses while staying at Kiawah Island, Cougar Point, Oak Point, Osprey Point and Turtle Point.  We will not be playing the Ocean Course which requires having a caddy and is the most expensive course to play.  However, you may decide to play it on Sunday on your own dime.

    There are several restaurants on the Island including the Cherrywood BBQ and Ale House, Tomasso, The Ryder Cup Bar at the Ocean Course, the Players Pub and the Loggerhead Grill at the Sanctuary. I will probably shop before I arrive to buy snack, drinks, breakfast and lunch items.

    Transportation is not included in this package but there is a direct flight to Charleston Airport which is about 38 miles from the course. It would be helpful to have one car per condo to get to the golf courses and restaurants. There is plenty of parking at our Villas.

    The cost is $1,960.00 per golfer for those staying 5 days and playing 4 rounds of golf. Payment must be made in full at the time of registration. If you are interested in taking a day off golf, please contact me. I will only be able to hold these Villas until the beginning of July. After that, I will have to release them and the price may increase. Also, no changes to our reservation may be made without incurring a severe penalties.

    Cancellations - A $50 cancellation applies for any cancellations prior to July 6, 2023. No refunds after July 6, 2023 unless a replacement is found.

    All credit card registration cancellation refunds will incur a 3% credit card cancellation fee.

    If paying by check, send your check payable to SCWDC to:

    5309 Langston Blvd
    Arlington, VA 22207
