Stayed here month of January 2012. Very comfortable, tastefully decorated town home in upscale, quiet location. Kitchen the best equipped of any rental we've used and we've rented condos, town homes and houses in many U.S. and international locations. Recommended restaurants: Plantation, Skillets, Hilton Head Diner and Stack's for breakfast; Crazy Crab for lunch; Alligator Grill, Marley's, Truffles, New York City Pizza, Patty's Pig 'n Pit and Old Oyster Factory for dinner (the latter open only for dinner). Not recommended: It's Greek to Me (bland food) and Reilly's Bar and Grill (uncomfortably noisy and so-so food). Publix supermarket just outside Sea Pines gate.

We have rented from top two companies over past 18 years but found this unit to be better maintained. It is furnished nicely and very spacious. Keyless entry is another plus. The location is great for tennis, harbor, beach, and riding bikes. We are already looking forward to our next trip to HHI.

Owner response:It is great to get this review from guests that live in Cincinnati, where we lived for 12 great years. We still miss many things about the area. This review also encourgages us to keep our property in the best possible condition. We have the best cleaning company on the Island and the best independent property inspector that makes sure every detail of the Villa is working and maintained.

My family and I stayed in your Villa and we loved it so much we will be calling you to book again next year. Your Villa was everything the VRBO listing said and much more, we loved the location, it is the absolute best place in the complex to be, very private and very quiet. The upgraded decor, size of the Villa, and the amenity package your offer made it very confortable for all of us. My dad loved the HD televisons, never seen this before in a rental Villa. We also liked the area in the front where you could easily store our 4 bikes out of sight. I would recommend this property to anyone that wants a great place to stay in Sea Pine.

Can't wait to return

This was our 7th stay in HHI/Sea Pines and our 3rd stay in a Heritage Villas property and this unit was the best by far. The location in the development was just perfect; an end unit which gets more light, and close to the pool, but as an interior unit, secluded from street & golf course noise. (Caution to those who want a unit that backs up the course - they start mowing really early in the morning - we learned that on a previous stay in a different unit.) The unit was very clean and everything was in great shape. The owners were very responsive during the entire process, extremely professional, but very helpful. The development is a short walk to Harbor Town & its restaurants & shops (don't miss the sunset) and Harbor Town Links. Sea Pines Beach Club is a 10 minute bike ride - bike rental is a must! We hated to come home and can't wait to return. Thanks for providing a super home away from home.

Owner response:We sincerely appreciate comments like this, we are always looking for ways to improve our property so our guests will feel like they are on a great vacation. Don, Marcia Gilbert

Great location

We were very happy with our stay. This is our second time to Hilton Head and we really enjoyed staying in Sea Pines. The condo is in a great location and we walked/biked to Harbour Town everyday. The pool is nice and just a short walk out the back door. The condo was clean and the property is very well-maintained. We also enjoyed the playground, the bakery, the beach and visiting the lighthouse. Thank you...no complaints!

I just stayed at this Villa with my best friend, we were on the Island for a wedding of one of our best friends. I have been to Hilton Head many times, but my friend had never been. I usually stay in a Heritage Villa because of the location. It is convenient to just about everything inside Sea Pines and is in a very quiet well maintained complex. In fact it looked like they had just been remodeled on the exterior. I usually don't review properties that I stay because I usually have some negative comments. This time there are none, the Villa is spotless, well equiped, very well furnished, quiet and in the best possible location in the complex. Very private and close to a wonderful pool. If you are looking for the perfect Heritage Villa inside Sea Pines, there is no need to look any further. I will be returning with my family later this year and will reserver again for next summer.

Owner response:It is very satisfying to get comments like this, we strive to make the property the best possible vacation experience.

Best in Class

Celebrated my parents 50th wedding anniversary on HHI. Several family members rented various condos at Heritage Villas (we were within 2 minutes walking distance). Many people commented that while all the condos were nice, I ended up with the one that was better equipped, much more comfortable and a true "home away from home". Everything was so easy - working with the owner who answered all my questions and who provided me with exactly what I needed to know and have to make my vacation the best! When we go back, I won't have to do lengthy research like I did the first time to find a high quality condo with all the necessary amenities - this condo exceeded every expectation I had.

Owner response:We really appreciate our guest, and do everything we can to make their visit to Hilton Head Island a great expeience. Even though we have owned this property for 20+ years, we are always looking for ways to make improvements and take suggestions. Thanks for the compliments. .

This was our third visit to this property and it just gets better each time. The owner is great to work with and sends us very informative information for each stay. The Villa has been upgraded each time we have been there, as of this last visit, I don't know much of anything that is left. The Villa is spotless, the best amenities I have seen anywhere, and the beds and linens are as good as a 5 star hotel. If you are lucky enough to get this Villa, you will be more than happy with it's overall condition, it's location, and the way it is equiped. I highly reccomend this property to anyone that wants to have a great Villa to stay in while on Hilton Head.

Owner response:It is always great to receive such complements on our property, we try very hard to make your Hilton Head experience to best it can be.

Ifyou are looking for the perfect plance to enjoy your Sea Pines vacation, this is it. It is in the perfect location, close to Harbour Town, Golf, Tennis, Restaurants, and just a short bike ride to the beach or you can take the trolley that stops nearby. We have stayed in many VRBO listings before, but this one is by far the best. It is clean, remodeled, quiet and is furnished with all new appliances and furniture. My son's and I watched a football game in HD, and that was a first for us in rental Villas. There are flat screen TV's in each bedroom also. You are within walking distance of Harbour Town with all it's activities and Sea Pines center with more shops and restaurants. The owner was so easy to work with and answered all of our questions end even sent us maps. The keyless entry is awesome, with two teenagers, there was no worry about keeping up with keys. I can't say enough about this Villa, except we will be back. Sue Flynn

We have rented property on HHI for many years, and have always used a rental company on Hilton Head in the past. This year we decided to try HomeAway and did we hit a home run. The Villa is better than the pictures. Don was so easy to work with, he made it painless. The keyless entry was great, we have 2 teenagers with us, and there was no worry about keeping up with keys. The Villa is beautiful, one of the most confortable beds I have every slept in. It was extemely clean, well equiped and the location is perfect for all that Sea Pines has to offer. Bike trails just outside your door, you can walk to golf or Harbour Town. The kitchen had everything we needed to fix several meals, and there is a gas and charcoal grill on the very private patio. The entrance to the swimming pool is a 30 second walk from the back doors. We have aleady booked this property for next year, and can't wait to go back. M. Fox

This is a wonderful villa! The location is perfect, the decor is fresh and relaxing and the extra attention to details makes you feel at home and comfortable. Everything is just as the Gilberts have said it is . . . even better than it looks on the website, which is not always true with VRBO rentals. Thanks so much for sharing your 'home' with us - we'll definitely be back!!

My husband and I and our 2 year old daughter spent a relaxing and enjoyable week at this Villa. It was fantastic. The Villa was beautifully decorated and super clean. Loved the washer and dryer in the unit for rinsing swim clothes. Well equiped kitchen was great for a few eat in meals. Confortable patio which was supprisingly private and very little sun, also on the path to the pool.. Location was AMAZING--walk to shops, the playground and restaurants. Short trolley ride to the beach. Would definetly rent this Villa again. Great Value. I have no complaints.

Just stayed one week in this villa. It is an end unit and is very private. It has been remodeled both outside and inside. Both look new. It was very clean and the owner was very helpful in the rental process. It is within 50 yards of a great pool, and almost on the Heritage Golf Links. I highly recommend this unit if you are planning a trip to HHI.
