Nice place. Great neighborhood.

The Shipyard community is great. Kingston Cove is a quiet, family friendly spot. We rented bikes, and it was quick ride to the beach. The kids loved it. There’s a lagoon behind the house, and we all enjoyed watching the wildlife come and go. And the pool is a huge bonus. We had a great stay.

Great house!

The house is set up well, master on one side of the living room, and bedrooms on the other. Modern kitchen, plenty of cookware and dishes. Air conditioning easily keeps it nice inside. Community pool right next door kept up well. Hot tub, grill, 15 minute walk to neighborhood beach. Shipyard golf course awesome and 3 min drive. 10 mins to Coligny beach, shopping, restaurants. I will stay here every summer I can!

Outstanding Beach House and Customer Service

From the moment we moved in until our checkout 2 weeks later, Steve and Tracy’s house was the perfect Hilton Head vacation spot. Walking distance to the beach and to the Shipyard golf clubhouse made it very easy to enjoy the area. The layout of the house was perfect for large families. Really enjoyed the hot tub and the screened in back porch. Highly recommend this place!

Wonderful Thanksgiving Weekend

This house was a total delight for six of us, all adult family, who stayed for five nights over the Thanksgiving holiday and weekend. The house is completely up to date, with a great kitchen, wonderful living and bedroom spaces, and a fantastic porch. We loved everything about this little vacation home. Minutes to the beach by bike, and beautiful surrounding lagoon is fun to watch birds. It is definitely a "happy place".

Very nice property

We had a great stay at this property. It was clean and very comfortable and spacious for our family of four. We really enjoyed the screened in porch for our morning breakfast and hanging out in the evening. There were a few small issues….2nd bath shower handle was very hard to turn, and there weren’t any laundry detergent or extra trash bags in the property. Would have been nice to have these little extras like we have had with other properties. Overall, it was a very nice house and we had a great time.

Hi Robert, We appreciate you taking the time to leave this review. We are delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay in our clean, spacious and comfortable home. Rest assured that we will have a vendor inspect the shower handle and make any repairs if necessary. Next time, remember our 24/7 guest hotline is always available to call with any issues that may come up. We want to make sure you’re as comfortable as you can be during your stay. Please know that we stock each home with what is called a "starter supply" of basic items. It is not designed to be an unlimited supply but, rather, to get a typical reservation through a weekend or get folks started so that they can enjoy their arrival days, take inventory, and pick up whatever else is needed to get them through their trip. Prior to each stay, we stock dish soap, laundry detergent, a roll of paper towels, toilet paper, a dish brush to wash dishes, a few trash bags, dishwasher detergent, bar soap, and the standard bathroom amenities you might find in a hotel. Thanks again for your feedback, we hope to see you again soon!

Beautiful Home!

This rental home was even more beautiful in person. The layout was ideal. The biggest attraction for us was the huge screened in porch that included both a dining area, and a sitting area with couch and chairs. The recent remodel lives up to the hype - bathrooms and kitchen were top notch. Small improvements include having a dish pan to wash pans in, and replace all the cheap plastic glassware with regular glass for drinking beverages and wine. The fire table was out of propane. Some of the ceiling fans/lights did not work. It is one of the most attractive places we have stayed at in Shipyard and we loved the location. Would definitely return!

Enjoyable experience!

Our two families that shared the home very much enjoyed our stay. The four kids shared the third bedroom and the two couples each had sufficient space in the other two rooms. The kitchen was fully equipped so that we could bring our k-cups for coffee, bread for toast (toaster), microwave leftovers, pan fry eggs, even bake a frozen pizza!! Everything and everywhere was clean and tidy. Loved the ability to use the washer and dryer as well as a dishwasher. Great location with the pool right next door. Never got to use the hot tub but there is always next time. Private beach access that we got a beach pass for. Only problem was that the shower handle in guest bathroom wasn’t working so we couldn’t have hot water on day 3 and 4 till we realized what the issue was. Management company was quick to respond. We would definitely come back!

HHI House Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a nice place. Well furnished, exactly as pictured. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you might need from pizza pans to can openers. I'm ridiculous about germs in settings like these, and the place was cleaned well. No stains or carpets or furniture. Just a few smudges on doors/walls/windows and a small spill in the fridge in a weird place that a cleaner couldn't reach, but those are places cleaners don't usually focus on. Had smart TVs for streaming, also. The deck was amazing, good for family meals and lots of friends. Close to a public beach, though we drove down to Sea Pines to meet friends each day. Close to grocery store and restaurants. Lots of walking/running/biking out the front door, also. We had a problem with the air and the property manager was in contact immediately and ready to do whatever we asked to follow up. Very kind and friendly.

Exactly as Advertised!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Everything in the home was exactly as described. This property is directly next to the swimming pool -- very convenient. We also enjoyed the hot tub. The home is modern, clean, and was actually more spacious than it appeared in photos. It is a short drive to the beach in Shipyard. (The beach is too far to walk.) The rental comes with a beach parking pass. We went to the beach each day we stayed and only had to park in the overflow parking once when arriving at 2 PM (peak time). When we arrived earlier in the day or later in the day, parking up close was no problem. There is a golf cart to bring you to the beach from overflow parking if you time it right. The beach itself is perfect. Couldn't ask for a better beach! We loved walking the paths around the ponds in Shipyard spotting alligators. We were safe and kept our distance, of course. Not being from this area, we found this a treat to view these beautiful creatures. Shipyard itself is very peaceful and quiet. Many families and bicycles. There is a gate with a staff member who will check your parking pass each time you enter the property. It did take some time to learn our way around as it all looked the same at first. By the third day, we had the streets figured out. This is a five star property for us. We would not hesitate to book it again. There are a few things I will mention just to state it so future guests can make the best choice for their family. *The sunroom is fantastic, and we loved it. We had all of our meals out there, and the kids would curl up on the couch at night and watch movies. However, do be aware that it is not air conditioned. *The third bedroom with the double bed and twin bed have very thin mattresses. You can feel the bed frame through the mattress. Kids sleep well anywhere, so it wasn't an issue for them. I wouldn't have wanted to sleep there as an adult. *You can hear pool noise from the home during the day. Again, we have kids and sometimes, it was our kids making the pool noise, so it wasn't an issue. Be aware of the close pool proximity if you are a daytime napper or don't want to hear kids. *The house is stocked only with starter supplies (as it does say in the description). If you are here for 3+ days, you'll need to pick up tp, shampoo, etc. The kitchen is stocked with basic supplies. Nothing beyond that. There are no beach toys or other beach supplies. *The dining room chairs are bar height.

Great place for a long weekend getaway!

Our family traveled to Hilton Head from the Charleston area for a long weekend getaway. We traveled with a five year old, three year old and a newborn and it could not have been better! The kids absolutely loved having the choice of pool or beach everyday and both were so convenient. We loved spending each night having drinks, snacks and watching tv on the patio while the kids watched movies in bed! Each room has a tv which is great when traveling with a group. We ate out every night but the kitchen was well equipped and perfectly set up for meals in, as well. We would all recommend this rental to any family looking for a relaxing, laid back stay in Hilton Head!

Great Vacation Home

This house was very nice and conveniently located near the community pool. An added plus was the onsite hot tub. We used the grill a couple of times and it was nice that they had a spare propane tank available. The interior was well appointed and they had all the necessary items to cook meals. They also had 2 coffee makers; one for coffee pods and the other for conventional coffee brewing. The screened-in patio was nice with a dining table and tv area for morning or evening meals and movie watching. I would definitely recommend this home to my friends and stay here again.

Best of everything

This home was clean, well-stocked, and very comfortable. There is plenty of porch seating, fans, and towels. The kitchen looked new, decorations were pretty. The pool is right beside the house so very convenient. We loved bike riding to the beach and plaza but if driving is your thing we never had trouble finding parking. We saw beautiful herons right outside the home every day. We would definitely visit again.

Great place!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was great for our family of 6. We really enjoyed it. As mentioned in previous reviews the beds/frames in the 3rd bedroom were not as comfortable as the other rooms or as good of quality, but we managed. It would be nice also to have more seating in the living area. The screened in porch was a big hit, especially the table with the fire pit since the weather was cooler. The hot tub was also a favorite. The street was quiet and the walk/ride to the beach was manageable since our kids are all older.
