Beautiful Villa by the Ocean!

It was a wonderful place, owner is sweet and wonderful to work with. Well kept place, people at resort were so kind. We travel alot and our daughter attends college here and will stay again!

We have been to Hilton Head before and stayed at the resort (different villa in building #2). This unit was the nicest we have been in so far. Plenty of space for 8 guests (4 were kids) and closest to the boardwalk of the buildings. That said, if you have never been to the resort before it is a little dated. The construction isn't as sturdy as newer buildings so footsteps are very loud both in your unit and those on top of you. Water pressure is also non-existant. That said, on off season you can't beat the price!

The condo is in a perfect location on Hilton Head Island, easy walk to the beach and close to shops and restaurants. The indoor pool came in very handy to keep the kids amused. The condo had everything we needed - although some coat hangers would have been useful!

Arrival went well. Condo is as advertised. Condo and facilities close to ocean. Close to Kroger, shopping. That's it for the good....

The not so good....

Facilities are older and need updating. During our stay the entire outside of all buildings were being repainted. Limited parking near the entrances due to cones being place in front of parking spaces, which we never figured out why. One elevator was out of service when we arrived so we had to carry up our luggage 4 flights of stairs. Good for the exercise, but could be an issue for others.

Stairwells are gross. Dirty, smelly. Not well maintained. Bike storage area is under the building and the area is just scary. Wild cats are living underneath and the ceiling is falling down in some areas in the bike storage. Nasty.

The pool was out of order for half of our stay. Luckily we don't mind being on the ocean, but if you have young kids, this may be an issue. Maintenance said the pump was out and to just use the other pool -- in building 4. They did not have an ETA on when it woudl be fixed.

As for the condo, the beds are NOT comfortable. Even our younger kids complained. Every time my husband or I rolled over the bed creaked and made noises. It was hard and was not a nice, higher end bed

In the master there was some kind of floor repair, but no molding was put back so it just looked like the owner did not care. Closet door handles were falling out in the MBR. Light bulbs were out, which we reported and they came and replaced except for the refrig light. A little hard to see without the light!!

The furniture needs a good cleaning. The leather couch has dirt marks that need to be scrubbed. Under the cushions were someone else's crumbs. Gross. Pans and mixing bowls were just thrown in the cabinets. I had to spend time organizing the first day just to figure out what we had and did not have.

Condo comes with a washer and dryer, but dryer vents INTO the condo so if you are drying something, the back bedroom turns into a sauna. We just kept the air going, but this cannot be good for the electric bill...??

During our stay, the condo above us had a family with a couple of younger kids. We don't mind, but our ceiling was so thin, we could hear them getting up at 6am, running all around all day long. One evening it was so loud, we could not even hear the TV.

We made the best of it, but will vote to NOT give this landlord any more of our well earned dollars!!

Everything was great! Our family found everything we needed and enjoyed the close location to the boardwalk to the beach. Our beach visits were comparable to being on a private beach. The owner was amazing to work with and access to the property was seamless. We were very impressed with this villa.
