Very good question, Adam. There are a few main things to consider:

First, how important to you is camaraderie on a golf vacation? When everyone stays under the same roof, this generally leads to maximum bonding and fun. Of course, this assumes that everyone gets along well and is easygoing.

If you have guys in your group (I'm assuming this is a buddies trip) who like having things "their own way," it might be best to divide them up into villas. Kiawah Island Resort has one- to four-bedroom villas available.

Second, with respect to Kiawah in particular, if you're looking for the ultimate in luxury and amenities, you may want to stay in a home. Kiawah Island Resort has four- to eight-bedroom homes available.

New and Notable Improvements to Kiawah Island Golf Resort Vacations

Golf is a game in which the better you get, the harder it is to get better. Well, Kiawah Island Golf Resort has been on top of its game for many years now, but important changes of late have helped it improve its golf vacation experience.

First, there's the resort's Sanctuary Hotel. We first previewed it in 2004 and recently returned to the Kiawah Island Golf Resort for a follow-up inspection. Guests who formerly had to endure the resort's dreary Kiawah Island Inn (which, for the time being, is no longer being used) are in for a treat. The Sanctuary, which creates a guest experience that's like staying at a grand Southern mansion, ranks among America's finest oceanfront hotels.
