Other Things to Note: Bugs We get asked about Palmetto Bugs all the time. Yes, these are roaches and are found pretty much everywhere outside in South Carolina but we like to call them Palmetto Bugs as it makes them sound nicer! They can be pretty big, can fly and will scurry around the floor but they are largely harmless. They do occasionally come inside, especially at night and during or after any storms. Rest assured all of our homes are professionally treated monthly for pests. Any bugs that manage to get inside will die quickly.
According to Eric Benson, Ph.D. professor and extension entomologist at Clemson University “It has nothing to do with cleanliness or the economic conditions of the area,” said Benson. “They could be around the nicest home or the nicest hotel or resort.”
If you leave the doors or windows open, especially at night, you will likely see a few. This is perfectly normal. If you see 20 or 30 all in one place then please let us know. This might mean we have a nest somewhere in the home and we'll need to get pest control out to take care of it. This is extremely rare!
Please don't worry about bugs, enjoy your vacation. You'll likely not see any while you are here, we just include this note so you understand it's not unusual to see some and it doesn't mean the home isn't well looked after!

Loved it
The unit was just as advertised. The resort is older, but well-maintained. Lovely grounds. I was so happy to be right on the beach in a quiet part of the island. The unit is nicely upgraded and comfortable. The kitchen is reasonably well equipped. Excellent Wi-Fi and TV. It is 3rd floor with no elevator, so be prepared to lug your bags up one at a time if you're a senior like me. The AC unit is very noisy and could do to be looked at, but it worked fine. Overall, I had exactly the beach week I was looking for and would recommend it.

Furniture was horrible.
The couch was so uncomfortable and the white chair has gum between the cushions. The furniture needs replaced. Need to in invest 1000 into new living room furniture. Bed was fine. Air conditioner was loud and vibrated the floor. We had a fan that helped to drowned out the noise when we slept. I can't see more than 2 people staying here because it's small and we knew that. The staff at hate were super nice. Wouldn't recommend unless these issues are addressed.

Heaven on earth
We always stay at the spa on port royal sound. We usually get two bedroom. This time we rented a one bedroom on the end. The ocean view room. I bumped my elbow once doing laundry, but other than than all 4 of us fit. I’d stay in this room over and over again. It has everything you need for a beach visit with two kids.

We knew going in that the unit would be small but it was very comfortable with all the amenities we needed. This was our second time on the island and as a birdwatcher I had spent many days at Fish Haul Beach. I was thrilled to find this gem of a property right on the ocean st Fish Haul, surrounded by thousands of birds. The beach is quiet and lovely. The balcony was my favourite place to be whilst in the unit. Gorgeous light breezes and the view was spectacular. We loved it.

Lovely location for a short stay
We had a great time staying at this property as a jumping off point for exploring a potential family relocation to the area. The rental was a bit tight for our young family of four (one baby) but would probably have been perfect if both of our children were old enough to stay in the bunks. The Spa property is a bit dated and rundown but this specific rental was very well updated and clean. Would recommend for a couple or small family with older children that doesn't plan to spend a ton of time inside (and why would you in Hilton Head?) Location is amazing, truly steps to the beach on Port Royal Sound. Had lots of fun checking out the tide pools and walking the beach daily.

Just Right for One!
My son and daughter in law live in Hilton Head and I came down for the birth of their second baby. The Spa was a perfect location close to them (HH Plantation) and the hospital. Bonus: it was right on the beach with a beautiful view! I will definitely stay here again in the future. Much better than a hotel. The condo was tiny, but very comfortable for one (or two).

Hilton Head get away
Over all we had a good experience with our stay. The location is beautiful very nice pools and beach access. Lots of wildlife around deer and bald eagle were seem multiple times. Very peaceful area kind of away from the crowd. The common area needs updating the hallway carpets and flooring are in rough shape. Inside was pretty clean however the bed wasn’t very comfortable and the heat pump is so loud it made it tough to sleep. Also the fridge needs to be replaced as we had to mop water out of the floor the entire stay. The unit was as advertised and was over all a nice place other than the noted.issues.

Great
Condo was small but perfect for our family of three. Owner was quick to respond to questions, very friendly and helpful. Very close to beach with great view. Had beach chairs, wagon, tent, umbrella and towels. The beach itself isn’t your typical beach since it’s on the sound. Small waves. When tide is low there were tons of wildlife to be seen. We saw dolphins and even saw a bald eagle! The only thing I suggest is a curtain or shades on the sliding doors. This made the living room fairly warm on the hot days. The resort area has a cat sanctuary on property with lots of cats roaming around. We saw some sitting on cars so keep that in mind if that bothers you.

Wonderfully close to the ocean
We were looking for a relatively quiet place with a view of the ocean, and this was perfect. Being situated around the northern shore of the island gave us the calmer version of the ocean experience, with the water and the waves being so close during high tides, yet leaving us with a sense of safety and serenity that, combined with the enjoyable beach and the beautiful peak at the morning sunrise, made each day very relaxing and wonderful. This is lightly different from the eastern shore of the island, which brings the stronger waves into the beach more constantly and gives a longer stretch of sand in between an oceanfront place and the ocean's water, and which we have greatly enjoyed in the past. The condominium unit itself was very nicely set up and was perfect for us. We never needed to contact the property manager during our week-long stay, and the various amenities and nearby places were very enjoyable as well. If we could add a few items for a future visit, it would be a DVD player, preset access to 'on-demand' TV programs for the TV in the sitting room in the same way that it was preset for the main bedroom TV, and a soap dish for the bathroom. But these are merely suggestions in the direction of slight refinements. Our overall experience was super!
