Newly renovated for 2018!

My family very much enjoyed this villa. The location was excellent, and we were pleasantly surprised at just how close the beach was. The pool was also very clean and well maintained, and again, great proximity to villa. The villa itself met all our needs and was nice and clean. There were a few minor details that could use some attention (outside grill needed to be replaced, throw pillows on sofa were stained, nail sticking up from threshold going into bathroom upstairs). Overall it was nice, and we would definitely stay again. (The rental company caused us some delay when we arrived by not including 2 gate passes, and we had to wait for an hour to get one from security office which was a little frustrating.)

We just recently returned from our 3rd vacation at this villa. We love the villa, the location and the owner is very easy to work with. Each morning we would enjoy our morning coffee on the back deck looking over the lagoon watching the birds and other wildlife. The villa is just a short walk to the beach. The pool is close by, but not too close. The villa is very comfortable, bright and sunny, but also shaded by beautiful trees, and it is well appointed. We love coming back to this villa each summer!

We just returned from our second year at 2 Hickory Cove. We have been visiting the island for over 18 years with our family and we couldn't be happier with this villa. It is closer to the beach than the other places that we have stayed. The walk to the beach is very short and that is a real plus. The villa is nicely decorated and very comfortable. The kitchen allows you to make meals at home (we like to have that choice - even though there are great restaurants on the island). The washer and dryer is very handy, especially with the many beach trips we took. We had 7 of us this year and had plenty of room. The pool is very close by. The owner was VERY helpful to us and the rental process was very easy. Take a look at the pictures - the condo is very nicely decorated and has been updated. We would recommend this villa to family and friends and we will definitely be returning again.

The location of this villa (2 mins from the beach, and across the street from the pool) made the decision to stay here easy. The owner responds quickly to e-mail inquiries and facilitated each of our requests, making our stay a breeze. Certainly a tremendous value for the price charged.

This was our first visit to Hilton Head, and we found this rental to be even more comfortable and spacious than the pictures show. Bedrooms are very large, beds very comfy, rooms with plenty of light. Kitchen was well stocked, with a full laundry room. Every room was super clean and well maintained. The outdoor deck facing the lagoon was a great place to have coffee in the morning, watching the herons and other birds and wildlife. We found the walk to the beautiful beach to be a comfortable 5 minute walk ( 2 or 3 mins.on bikes!) on a nicely marked and paved trail. The pool is even closer, just across the street, but not too close or noisy to disrupt the wonderful, peaceful scenery that surrounds the property. Also minutes away are the general store, tennis courts, and bike rentals, all of which we used and found to be great. A short car ride away are grocery stores, pharmacy, and many wonderful restaurants. (But we really enjoyed just walking to the Dune House Grill to eat right out by the beach at sunset!) We would recommend renting bikes for the week, as there are many beautiful trails to enjoy in Palmetto Dunes. We had several questions and concerns ( it being our first visit) and found the owners to be extremely helpful and accomodating. Directions were excellent, and all descriptions accurate. Our family agreed this was one of our favorite rentals and one of the most restful, enjoyable vacations we've had!
