Kiawah is a beautiful island, but it seems like they’ve walled it off to the common folk. You can enjoy Kiawah only if you’re in the six-figure income bracket. The natural setting is unbelievable – wind-swept dunes, pristine marhses and all that – but the man-made part seems artificial and contrived to me. There’s a sameness to all the houses, villas, roads and signs. It was never allowed to evolve naturally with all the rules and codes; the place has that “developer” stamp all over it. Where’s a barbecue joint?
