Great location and had everything we were looking for. Each car does need to purchase a resort gate pass for the week. The house had a beach cart and extra beach toys and chairs and umbrellas to use. We had a great time!

Wonderful family vacation home!

This home is incredibly comfortable for multiple families to enjoy. There’s plenty of indoor seating, beds and outdoor lounge chairs to enjoy. The pool overlooking the lagoon is perfect, as well. We spent many hours visiting and letting the kids play. The ocean is a short walk away, and the Palmento Dunes resort was picturesque, safe and had amenities onsite like a cute general store with food, necessities and treats. We would definitely return to this special place!

Had a great experience really conveniently located near the beach nicer than the pictures. Only negatives are that the pool has a lot of debris due to the surrounding trees and the pool isn’t heated which made it pretty chilly at times but those were just minor things. Had a great time!!!!

We are so glad you enjoyed your vacation. The pool can be heated at an additional cost. I wish you would have reached out. The cost is very reasonable. While the pool is cleaned twice a week, there is a skimmer there for pesky leaves. The tree cover is a very welcome respite from the hot HHI sun!

Great property that is showing its age in some places. Love the new kitchen and it was well supplied. The only real problem was the beds. Not really comfortable and SQUEAKED LIKE CRAZY even if you had the slightest movement or turn. Had the same mention by both other parties in our group. Replacing these would be a major improvement!!!

Great rental

The property was just as described. Plenty of room for our 6 adults and 2 small children. Very nice kitchen and appliances. The added ice maker is a real convenience for trips to the beach. Beautiful deck, pool, gas grill and dock on the canal. The walk to the beach is very reasonable. We would recommend this house for a nice stay at HIlton Head.

Our week in this home was our first time in Hilton Head and it was fantastic!!! The home was great. The location was perfect. Near everything. The house was comfortable and spacious for the eight of us. And the pool was perfection!!! It was very easy to get in touch with the property manager and there were no complications at all. Would very highly recommend this property and would definitely visit again!

Room to breath

The property is lovely! We enjoyed gathering in the large, well-equipped kitchen-keeping room area, as well as the living room area and outdoor pool area. The bedrooms are spacious as well. There’s a great game and reading cabinet too. Our family had plenty of room to spread out, and we had a great time. If you have children, you might want to make sure they wear shoes when going on the deck…the deck is a bit rough. Otherwise, the stay was perfect.

Second year visit

We enjoy this house. It is large enough to accommodate our two families of 4. Easy walk to the beach. Great area for kids to rise their bikes and get a little freedom. Pool is lovely. We like to paddle the lagoon as well. I was sad to see lots of dead fish floating this year. Part of living with us humans, I am afraid. This year we had a plumbing issue and it was cleared up right away. Thank you! The cleaning of the house was pretty bad this time around. Might want to follow up with your cleaning crew. Otherwise, great house!!

Desperate need of cleaning and basic maintenance

Interior paining needed especially on the ceilings where there has been water damage and around the air vents that have either black mold or dirt around them. Exterior needs cleaned. Just sweeping the decks & front porch prior to a new group arriving would be nice. Cleaning crew did a poor job prior to our stay. The wood floors had dirt under & around the beds & thick cobwebs in the corners . Bathroom shared by 2 bedrooms needs updated & cleaned. Master bath has been updated but needed cleaned. Master was the only bedroom with a tv. A vacation home should have a tv in each bedroom. A little basic maintenance & TLC would make this a great place to stay. Owner doesn’t seem to care about the property. We won’t stay there again.

As we all know a happy rental experience is frequently dependent on good communication. VRBO/Homeaway provides excellent tools to facilitate a good collaboration between guests and owners during there stay. Unfortunately, this guest decided to communicate their concerns AFTER the rental when we could not do anything to mitigate them. We would have sent the cleaning crew back right away and addressed all their concerns.

Great location, very convenient & fit for our family

We loved the location, quick walk to the beach over the bridge. Luckily, we threw in our kids scooters at the last minute so for the kids it was a fun experience getting to the beach. 8 minute walk to the tennis courts and you are pretty close to the gate so it is easy to get to the grocery stores across the street. Loved the dock, we went fishing every night. The backyard is very pretty in general, a lot of wild life. Before we arrived we were concerned about the bedding, it looked very shabby online - but in person it was a lot nicer. The furniture in the common areas could be improved but it didn’t bother us. The kitchen is STOCKED - it has every pan, blender, crockpot that you could need. The house also has a ton of games & puzzles which our kids appreciated. We didn’t use the grill outside, there were quite a few palmetto bugs that seemed to think this was their domaine. Things that could be improved: the towel holder in the bathroom is still broken, the beds in both spare bedrooms are very squeaky and not that comfortable, the toilet seat in the spare bathroom also needs to be replaced. Would we stay here again? Absolutely. We had a wonderful week, loved the pool, the view in the backyard and the convenience of the location.

Fantastic

The flexible floor plan, amenities in home, very convenient location on lagoon, steps to beach, short walk to tennis, boogie boards and cinnamon rolls at Country Store, bikes, kayaks, pool, dock, grill, and every basic need we wanted in the house was there for us, from linens to TVs. Our 4 teenage grandsons had their bunk room with bath-perfect. While the home was well appointed, it was comfortable enough so that we did not have to walk on pins and needles, we could relax. Our whole family takes their shoes off at the door at home or away, minimizing sand on the wood floors. We could feel at ease and enjoy being in the home. The management team answered us promptly whenever we had a question. One adult had to work some while there hooked up to the WIFI. All of us had a fantastic vacation and we are still talking about it. Grandma Jan

Our stay at this beautiful home was relaxing and fun. Everyone was taken aback with the beauty of the inside and outside. We spent a lot of time on the back porch area relaxing by the pool and watching all the wildlife. The pool and the house are much larger than we had expected.

Beautiful, spacious home on the lagoon

My family stayed at this beautiful, spacious home on the lagoon with our 3 kids and grandparents. The pool was clean and well maintained. The kids loved the pool and the wildlife around the lagoon. We saw many herons and an alligator lazily swimming in the lagoon. The beach was a short walk across a bridge in the neighborhood. The grandparents liked it since it was a one level home with spacious rooms. The kitchen was well equipped and all the appliances were updated and top of the line. The neighborhood is in a gated community and very well maintained. Neighbors were friendly and welcoming. The owners were wonderful. They were always available and easily reachable and kept us updated via texts and emails. Definitely recommend to families with kids and grandparents. Hope to come back again in the future.

Perfect House for our Family Vacation

A great place to stay! Our 3 adult children all live in different states so we try to meet up each Spring for some family time together. Unfortunately we have not been able to travel for the last 2 years so It was very important to find a great place for all of us and we were not disappointed. I booked the home in September and when I went to pay my second payment in January I looked at the reviews and was a little skeptical since there were a few recent bad reviews. I emailed Jim and he assured me the owner was working on the items in question so I went ahead and kept the place and I am so glad we did. The back yard/pool area was great, there was a refrigerator by the outside grill so the grandkids (and big kids) didn't need to run in the house to grab a drink. The pool had lots of room for everyone (we had 10) There was plenty of sun and shady options to sit or lay out in. There was a place to hook up a hammock we had two and they fit perfectly by the trees close to the lagoon. We saw many beautiful birds while there, we even got to watch an egret grab a fish from the lagoon and eat it in a nearby tree. The house set up with 2 bedrooms on each side of the house with the kitchen and living rooms between was great for our family. The living room furniture was recently replaced and very comfortable. The kitchen had everything I needed to cook with for our big family. I did bring a griddle and Keurig coffee pot to help with our breakfast meals. We had just a couple hiccups that were not the properties fault, the garbage man didn't stop at our house and the pool heater didn't work for a day or so, both were resolved quickly with a text message to Jim. We rented bikes and enjoyed the many trails in the community. We all had a great time. ~Merri
