Family vacation
Great location! We liked the layout a lot. We had to book last minute. The upstairs rooms stay hot even with air set at 68 and box fans running, lock to door looks like someone tried breaking in, and carpets were soiled significantly (we never took off our shoes) and bed comforters/quilts were dirty. Laundry was super convenient. Happy to have an elevator.

Nice location but dirty
It doesn’t get better than looking out at the harbor and the unit had everything we needed. Unfortunately it was not very clean. The shower had hair in it from the previous tenants, the floors were not swept well and on our last day after our son struggling with allergies all week we discovered a substantial amount of black mold in multiple areas. The door to the unit needs repairs and parts of the ceiling are peeling off. Just not what I expect when paying such a high rental fee. We have stayed in sea pines for 20+ years and this was our least favorite rental. Thought I was renting from a Vrbo owner and did not know I was renting from a rental management company until it was too late. For anyone looking at their company be aware you must mail a check or you are charged an additional service fee to charge the final amount to your card.

Wonderful headquarters for a Hilton Head vacation
Family of 5 had a great time at Hilton Head for Spring Break. Location was excellent, very nice to be a quick walk to the main harbor area with all the food, music, entertainment, and playground.
Everything for check-in was sent ahead of time, no waiting for gate passes or keys, absolutely could not have been smoother. Bikes were waiting when we got there, unit is lovely with great amenities, layout, kitchen, comfy beds, and great views of the lighthouse on both levels.
Our Spring Break is a little early so it was nice to have a pool open nearby with most others closed. Plenty of activity around the island. Kids already clamoring to come back next year.
Thanks to our host for a great experience.

beautiful New Year's stay
Excellent location, enjoyed walking around Harbortown each day, getting coffee at local shop, enjoying the friendly vibe. Very nice unit, view as good as shown in pix. Two minor observations. The drip coffee maker is old and basic. The newer Kuerig did not work. Next time I'd bring my own coffee maker. The other, the 4 glasses that are supposed to be wine glasses are very basic, you would not want to enjoy a nice wine in any of them. We bought 4 new glasses, and then took three of them home. Left one for the next guest.

Sisters weekend
My sisters and I stayed at this VRBO property during our annual visit to our mother who is a resident of Hilton Head. The location was lovely, situated around the harbor, it was a quick walk to the Harbortown shops, restaurants, and lighthouse, and was steps away from the golf course. Unfortunately, we cannot say that it lived up to our expectations. Renovations were taking place in the hallway right outside of our room. Between the loud electrical equipment as well as the workers loud voices, there was not only constant noise but a big mess in the hallway right outside of our room. The condo itself was comfortable with a nice view although, not as clean as one would hope. The windowsill behind the bed in one bedroom was layered with dust and cobwebs and there was chewed gum on the bathroom floor. The noise in the hallway outside of the condo, the mess caused by the workers and the unclean bedroom was a significant downside. To make matters worse, the workers seemed to have little regard for guests. They left ceiling scraps and dust at the entrance of the room which required us to dust off the dirty door handle and step over the scraps of plaster to enter. I understand that renovations and repairs are necessary, but there should be some effort made to minimize the disruption and inconvenience to paying guests. It would have been nice to have a choice whether to stay in this condo under these circumstances and it would have made a difference if the host had notified us.

Great location
The property had a great location. We enjoyed our stay and the management company was awesome. One thing we didn't realize is that you cannot park at the beach, you have to take a trolley that picks you up down the street across from the pool. The pool access was great. About a 3 minute walk.
Overall a nice place, some of the bathroom fixtures needed to be fixed (towel bars fell off the wall), and some plates and dishes were cracked but overall was a great location.

Perfect family getaway
Location in the heart of Harbour Town is great—easy walk to everything (lighthouse, pool, dining, playground, golf, shopping). Villa is perfect for families with two master bedrooms and a third bedroom with double beds and private bath; this room and second master on the second floor. Balcony railing a little low to allow for great view but need to watch small children. Booking was easy and express check-in and check-out gave more time for fun. View of the harbor can not be beat. Lots of activities for all ages. Definitely on the list for a return visit.

Great Location
We really enjoyed this property. Great location on the harbor. Lots of space. Managment is hard to reach over the weekend and holidays. Bring extra garbage bags, paper towels, tp, dish soap, etc. They only provide 1-2 days worth. That being said, I would definitely stay her again. Its just so nice and a great location.

Very nice
This is a lovely condo in an unbeatable location. It was clean and comfortable. There is an elevator in the building, but stairs or a very steep ramp to get into the lobby and elevator. We had someone in a wheelchair so it was a bit dicey getting him in and out. The listing doesn't say its handicap accessible, so it was my oversight, just wanted to mention it in case it helps someone else. The condo itself is lovely and I would stay again without hesitation, as long as I didn't need full accessibility.
