We’ve stayed at Seaside Villas plenty of times and this was instantly my favorite unit on this property. It was well appointed, great location, with a nice view. Property Management was on top of their game. I plan on staying here again.

Great place for a weekend getaway but a little small for a longer stay. Location was great - walking distance to Coligny Plaza and all the restaurants, shops and entertainment there. Elevators and luggage carts a big plus!

We were visiting friends and loved being so close to shopping and great seafood restaurants. The place was perfect for the two of us and had everything we needed for cooking, plenty of pillows, towels. The condo complex was quiet and clean and a short walk to the beach. We were there in 2011 and the place hadn’t changed at all

This condo is nicely decorated and was very clean for our stay. It has very cozy bedding and pillows and nice amenities (beach chairs, toys, games). It's the perfect location right on the beach and walking distance to many restaurants and grocery store.

Thank you so much for that feedback! We hope to host your family again!
Very nice and clean, great location. It would be nice to have the parking pass in the room so we didnt have to go to another location first. The air conditioner worked nice, but did not keep the bedroom cool, even with the doors open. Would book this again.

The place is at a excellent location (near playground, shopping and dining area, oceanfront) and you can find all amenities you need for a short stay.
The apartment is small, pictures give you an impression of being bigger. But for a short period, it doesn't bother.

We are thrilled to hear that you have enjoyed your stay with us on the island. We hope to host your family again! Thank you for choosing Sunset Rentals for your island getaway.
It was a nice and clean place to stay in a great location. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is how the AC is set up for the unit. The AC is on the wall at the other end from the bedroom / sleeping area. You have to use fans to move the air around and it kind of works. We like it cold when we sleep. Other than that the unit was great!

Great time.
PROS: Great location. Chairs, toys and umbrellas for use on beach. Nice balcony seating.
CONS: No extra linens for pull out bed. Used linens from hallway bunks. Pull out mattress needs replacing. Had to find office for parking pass .... would be nice to just leave it in room.

We appreciate you taking the time to write a review! I have passed along the notes provided to the property care team! We hope to have you back again soon!!
The place was very dirty - should have taken pictures when we arrived. Something spilled down dishwasher and wall- stains still there.

Hi Jannifer,
We appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback for Seaside 253. I apologize for the cleanliness issues. Had we been made aware, we would have sent housekeeping back to re-clean the unit. Despite these issues, we hope that you were able to enjoy your stay on the island.
Nice place to stay...for those who want beach access it's 250 feet to the beach. Coligny Beach is an awesome beach....its a nice clean beach area. 2 blocks to the shopping Plaza. The property itself is somewhat dated but in good shape. 2 pools were clean and well kept. Quiet and peaceful...no bugs observed...no trash in the complex...well maintained for cleanliness. Condo was smaller at 500 sq ft but had everything we needed. I prefer larger condos with full sized kitchen area but theses units are well designed and space is adequate for their size. We recommend Seaside Villas to anyone coming to Hilton Head.

Thank you for this feedback! We hope that you visit with us again soon!
This condo complex is on the beach with great amenities. It’s an older building and the space is small, but it’s been spruced up. The entire complex and this specific condo have a musty smell, but it wasn’t too bad. It had anything you would need in the kitchen in terms of pans and dishes etc. The bunks are definitely for younger kids as they are very narrow. The pools are wonderful and everything was very clean at this property. It was a nice surprise to find a huge basket on the porch with tons of sand toys and buckets. Great extras included a beach cart, umbrellas, chairs, boogie boards etc. This rental also included $150 in gear rental that was delivered. I originally ordered chairs, an umbrella, and boogie board, but when we arrived I realized the condo offered all of these things. The rental company came back to pick the items I ordered up and brought bikes instead! Both the gear rental company and Sunset Realty were wonderful to work with. The communication was quick and easy and very much appreciated whenever I needed something. I was even granted a later checkout due to my evening flight. I can’t say enough good things about this rental company. We had a great trip and I’d go back tomorrow if I could.
