Jess and her family were wonderful guests and are great to communicate with. I'm very glad you enjoyed yourselves, our condo and Palmetto Dunes. We would definitely enjoy sharing it again if you come back in the future!
This was a GREAT spot! 10 minute beautiful walk to the beach, quiet location, responsive cordial owner, everything we needed for a great family vacation!
We loved our stay at Jim and Jenny’s place. It is a well-appointed condo with a comfortable set up. The walk to the beach was very doable with kids and the proximity to the pool within Water Oak made it easy to use. We love Palmetto Dunes and this quiet location was a great fit for us.

Great Location
Great location and owner was helpful. Cleaners need to pay more attention to detail.
We had a fabulous stay at the Water Oak condo. The condo was nicely maintained and had many upgrades. The kitchen was well stocked and we especially liked having a crockpot! Jim was a pleasure to deal with and was very responsive to my inquires. We loved our stay so much that we already booked for next year!
We had family staying at a larger house in Palmetto Dunes. This gave us a little more privacy and space but was still super close to joining up with the larger group. Rented bikes and it was even easier getting around.
Ideal location in Palmetto Dunes. Easy walk to the beach, tennis courts, golf course and General Store. Quiet community with nice pool. Owners are great to work with - excellent communication and very responsive. Very spacious and comfortable condo - perfect for our family of 4 (including two teenagers). Loft space was ideal. Back patio overlooks golf course. Everything you need for a comfortable stay on HHI.
This condo is absolutely perfect for a family getaway to Hilton Head Island! It is stocked with all the necessities to make this your home for your stay. With it situated on the golf course, there are peaceful views and many wildlife sightings. We enjoyed walking to the General Store each evening for ice cream and visiting The Dunes House for a meal overlooking the ocean. This place is a gem and we’ll definitely be back again!

Thanks so much Sara (and family)! Everything you wrote is exactly what we love about coming down here too. We love hosting you guys and really appreciate your return visit to our condo.
Thanks,
Jim
Great property and communication with host. Had everything we needed and more. Our only issue was the check in, the property was not cleaned on arrival for 4p check in but the host was quick to respond to our text and got cleaning staff there within a half hour. The property was thoroughly cleaned. We appreciated his promptness to the issue and his generous offer to buy us a round of drinks. We would definitely stay here again. Great location and we were very happy overall.
We had such a lovely time staying at this condo. This is a beautiful home in a gorgeous location right on the golf course in Palmetto Dunes. The hosts have thought of everything to make their guests feel at home. I was overcome by the feeling of quiet and calmness in this spot.
The resort is gorgeous and the condo is so roomy and comfortable. Jim and Jenny were thoughtful hosts who made the process seamless.
My family and I are so happy we found this home!
Overall experience at this villa was fine. We had some minor issues (wrong size sheets for pull out couch, central air/google nest issues, broken master toilet handle). The host was extremely accommodating in making sure every issue was rectified in a timely manner. Two suggestions would be to add at least 2 more chairs for the kitchen area and another loveseat or chair for living room area. This would accommodate the 8 person villa that is advertised.
Second year at Palmetto Dunes on Hilton Head. The perfect spot for a family vacation. We stayed the first week in May and the weather was perfect! Jim was great to work with and answered all our questions promptly. Check-in process was easy and the home was well stocked with everything we needed. There are 4 beach chairs, beach toys and 1 bike (which was great as we were able to rent 1 less bike for the week!).
If you have not been to Hilton Head Island before, you will not regret it! It is idyllic! A picture perfect vacation and the kids loved it! We'll be coming back for sure!
It’s okay for a very short stay like a week or less!
Outdoor was not at all cleaned and it iwas not useful for us. Electrical plugs are not updated. Dishwasher was a headache. Crockery was mixed and unmatched.
Main bathroom exhaust fan was not working.

After more than two years of renting our condo, this is the first time I’m writing a response to a review. My wife and I take our responsibility of providing a great experience to our guests very seriously and have maintained a rating above a 4.8 since we’ve begun. Obviously, everyone is entitled to their opinion and we are very open to feedback as we are continually use that feedback to make improvements or changes, but after having responded to all the Warty’s texts, emails and calls, I would like to provide our point of view.
Immediately after the Warty’s arrived they called me to tell me the TV was not working. I assured them that was not the case as we were the previous guests and talked them through how to switch inputs on the remote by pushing the input button. In the next call to me, they were upset because the thermostat was broken. After explaining that it is a Nest device and is controlled by touching the side of the thermostat, it worked fine. Next, I received a call telling me the dishwasher was broken. Again, I talked them through pushing the start button after closing the door and that fixed the “issue”. They did not mention the outside being unusable, the bathroom fan not working or the crockery not matching during their stay. I can attest that the crockery doesn’t completely match as we have both a matching set of dishes, glasses and silverware as well as extras of each. All the bathroom fans do work as confirmed by our next guests. As far as the outside being unusable, I am not sure what that means. We have a glass table and 4 chairs outside as well as a charcoal kettle grill, all of which are useable. The patio is surrounded by a large tree and on the other side is a golf course so it’s wooded (i.e. you routinely see deer early morning and early evening). The condo association routinely mows, blows leaves, etc outside our unit and in 2 years no one has ever mentioned it being unusable. When we are there, we typically sit outside at the table in the morning having a cup of coffee or breakfast.
Finally, I have confirmed there is a blown outlet that will be replaced in the next two weeks so prior to any future rentals. All other outlets, per the guest in the unit currently, are in working order.
Palmetto Dunes is our favorite place to stay on the Island. We loved this location! We could hop on our bikes and be standing on the beach in 5min. We could bike to the Robert Trent Jones Clubhouse in less than 10min. The deer are always around the back area as well. Communication with the owners on any issues we had were handled immediately.
This stay was perfect for us in that we had everything we needed in both the location and the condo, itself. The property was clean and the neighborhood was quiet, yet we got in great beach days, Pickleball, nice walks, and biking. A perfect combination of recreation and relaxation.
We have stayed in other Palmetto Dunes property, but really enjoyed this location better. We loved the easy access to the beach and the Dunes restaurant is also walking distance. Jim was great to work with and check in and check out was so easy. There is two large bedrooms and a loft with bunk beds. The house has a fully equipped kitchen, which was nice. The neighborhood is so quiet and the beaches are beautiful. We really enjoyed our vacation at HHI! Can't wait to come back. Thanks Jim and Jenny!
This is a nice condo very well stocked kitchen with a great location. Jim is very great to work with and is very timely in responding. The only reason I did not give a 5star rating is the fact I almost didn’t book because the reviews were all 5 star
We enjoyed our stay at this VRBO and, as always, our visit to Hilton Head! The location is privately tucked into a grove of Magnolia and Palm Trees along one of HHI’s beautiful golf courses within Palmetto Dunes. We enjoyed the proximity to the beach and walked to the General Store nightly for soft serve ice cream! The owners were helpful, quick to respond, and provided an excellent guide prior to our trip. We’d certainly stay here again in the future!
Great week away in HHI. Jim was excellent to work with and communication was superb. It was our first time in Hilton Head and certainly not our last. Thanks for your hospitality.
