Very nice!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of seven enjoyed our one-week stay at the Wright Way very much. The location was amazing, being centrally-located with beautiful trees and palmettos with a lagoon in back. Enjoyed watching the numerous herons, egrets, and small alligators near the property. The kitchen was well-equipped and the golf carts were the best we've experienced. Some minor maintenance is needed (to repair broken hardware on cabinet doors and drawers, fully close bathroom doors, etc.), but overall we were very pleased.

We have a wonderful house manager who helps us take care of our home, and we definitely view the house as our home, rather than a rental property. We have filled it with all the things that we enjoy, and cooking is one of them, so we have most things you'll need in the kitchen.

Terrific stay

We had a great week in this house! Super clean, bright and every amenity we could have asked for! Host was very responsive when my husband let him know about problem with golf cart which he dealt with immediately. My only concern would be to keep a watchful eye on small dogs and children as the property abuts a marsh way that we saw a quite large alligator hanging around! Definitely fun to see but please don’t feed!! Also a beautiful neighborhood deck area to watch the birds and wildlife! Highly recommend this house! Thanks for the opportunity to stay!

Family Vacation

Property was even better in person. We have been vacationing on BHI for over 20 years and have stayed all over the island. 6 Sable Palm was clean, and perfect for our family of 4. Able to access both clubs if you desire (make sure to apply early), two brand new golf carts and all within a the most reasonable price point for the island. Thank you for another relaxing and memorable year!

We are just back from our week at this home and it was an absolute delight. The furnishings are lovely and in great shape with everything you need for a great week.The house was absolutely spotless and the two golf carts gave us a ton of flexibility. It is definitely a special house in a very special place and Carrie made everything EASY- especially considering it was our first visit to the island. You will not be dissapointed.

Thank you for your review. Our 2 golf carts are new this month and we moved from one 6 seater to two 4 seaters for flexibility so we're glad you enjoyed that. I'm happy to help with any questions renters may have about the island or the house - you just have to ask!

Rented this property for our 10th year on the island and it could not have been more perfect for our family! Beautiful home with everything you need. Very clean and beautifully decorated and very comfortable! The kitchen Is fully stocked and great for cooking in at night. The location was perfect for getting to the market, golf course and beach.

Beautiful week in Bald Head

Our family of 5 (3 teens) stayed at 6 Sabal Palm cottage. We had a great stay with plenty of room to spread out. Beds were comfortable and the house is updated nicely. The house had everything we needed- including beach towels, beach chairs. We enjoyed playing games at night and sitting on the back porch. We saw a few alligators, turtles, and egrets. The property manager was very communicative and went out of his way to help us out with anything we needed. Thanks for. a great stay!

Our Happy Place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: We've been coming to the island for summer vacation with our 2 kids for 10 years, sometimes twice in a summer and once for Thanksgiving! We love Bald Head Island, it is our happy place! We've stayed in lots of different houses, some more than once and with a few different rental companies. This was our first time with Homes on BHI - it was a great experience! We loved the house, the communication was great, the house was well stocked and we love the forest area. We would definitely recommend the island, Homes on BHI and this house! If you come, be sure to go to Mike's Bites for Italian ice - it's the best cold treat, the best value and the best place on the island other than the beach!!

Nice and spacious home!

The home is spacious and comfortable. It is at the end of a very quiet cul-de-sac and is centrally located between the marina and market and close to the beach, golf course and Bald Head Island Club. The kitchen is very well equipped. There is a private screen porch with lots of rocking chairs. Both carts are in great shape and fast. We enjoyed temporary membership to both clubs. Trust that if you have any questions at all Carrie will be very responsive.

Great House in the Maritime Forest

House was great for two families. Spacious and lots of beds. Plenty of seating at dining table was a plus too. Kitchen was easy to work in with all the necessities. Location in the Maritime Forest is great...quiet but close to every part of the island. Community Gazebo overlooking the lagoon was the kids' favorite and they even saw the alligator. Two golf carts are great to have (an ammenity not to overlook!) Three bikes provided too! Carrie was exceedingly easy to work with and very responsive. I would definitely rent the house again.
Response from VrboOwner on 2 Apr 2020
Thank you for your feedback and it's great that you enjoyed the house and the island. We also love the location of the house and that it's so easy to get anywhere on the island. So glad you enjoyed the gazebo - we often spend time watching the turtles and alligator when we grill. We look forward to welcoming you back for another vacation.

Peaceful, beautiful vacation

This is our second stay at this house, which works wonderfully for our family that includes two young adults, but there is surely room for more guests. May is a great time on the island; the weather is cooler and there are fewer vacationers so nothing is crowded. The Jose house has everything that you would want. It is immaculately clean, the property is quiet, the carts and bikes get you everywhere, the market is nearby, and the kitchen has all the basics. Staying in the forest is different from being next to the beach. We really love the canopy and bicycling under the trees. The owner is very responsive and maintains a lovely rental property where you will feel at home.

New Years at 6 Sabal Palms

Exceptionally clean. Upholstered furniture like new. Convenient layout with open design. Great tv accessability (we were there during all of the New Years bowl games). Quiet location. Well furnished kitchen. Good WiFi. Like-new golf carts. Comfortable beds. Attractively decorated. Very easy to communicate with home owner. Very easy to work with property management on-site. Wonderful screened-in porch overlooking lagoon (with resident alligator). Great memories!!!
Response from VrboOwner on 2 Apr 2020
Our family room furniture was new in July 2015. With our growing family, we needed more seating so replaced the sofa and chair with a great new sectional. We've updated other pieces of furniture too to add to our light and airy feel. We have our golf carts maintained every month during the summer and every other month through the rest of the year to help them look good and run well. The on island golf cart company respond well to call outs at any time.

We love BHI!

Pros: Great Vacation! House fully stocked and very nice. Once on island : good communication. Cons: Advertised a grill but no grill. Also some of beach items broken when we got there. Communication 2-3 weeks out was not the best. Asked several times about club membership and finally was told to call them myself. Overall great location and amazing time just wish some of extras were in better condition and it was easier to get in touch with someone.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 Sept 2021
Mendi Thanks for your feedback. We take all concerns seriously and will do our best to address them. The grill advertised is a community grill that apparently was not working during your stay. This community does not allow grills on property. The BHI club does not allow us to get in middle of the temp memberships. They must be booked directly with the club and as we have no control over their rules and rates, it is always best to deal directly with them. After meeting you, I hope that your week was a great one and I do hope you will come and stay with us again.

This house has everything it promises

I've been vacationing at BHI for about 10 years. This was my first time to stay in the interior of the island, and we really enjoyed the forest canopy. The home was bright and clean and very comfortably furnished. Our family of four (two college-age children) had more than enough space and appreciated having 3 full baths. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to prepare and serve breakfast and some lunches and dinners. The carts were fully charged and in good working order, and we used the bicycles, as well. We opted for the BHI Club membership for the week, where we enjoyed the pool, restaurants, tennis, golf and fitness center. In my planning stages, Carrie was very responsive to my questions and needs. There was a property manager on the island, but we did not need anything. It felt like home to us. I would certainly return.

The forest canopy adds such a different dimension to the island, yet you're still so close to the ocean and beaches. We love listening to the tree frogs and cicadas at different times of the day when we're on the porch. Guests staying in our home can choose to purchase temporary memberships at either Bald Head Island Club or Shoals.

Wonderful Home

We spent our sixth consecutive summer on BHI and were treated to a great week of relaxing fun and fantastic weather. The week was made all that more enjoyable by this great home. The home is very spacious -- far more so than is apparent in the pictures. In addition, the home is stocked with numerous high-end appliances, kitchen products/utensils, and other modern amenities (which we greatly appreciated, especially since we are very busy kitchen folk). It's apparent the home owners care about and frequently use the home themselves and are careful and discriminating to stock it with items that they appreciate using themselves. Sabal Palms Cottages is a cozy little neighborhood with a great gazebo overlooking a lagoon busy with all sorts of entertaining wildlife; we enjoyed stopping by in the evenings to sightsee. In addition, many of the neighbors are very friendly and helpful. Finally, Carrie is very responsive and prompt in all her business dealings, which made every transaction and communication pleasant and easy.
Response from VrboOwner on 2 Apr 2020
Thank you for your review. We too love cooking and being busy in the kitchen and love that you have enjoyed our kitchen tools and appliances. We also enjoy hanging out on the gazebo over looking the lagoon and spotting the wildlife while we're cooking on the grill. We're so lucky to have wonderful neighbours that make the Sabal Palm community as enjoyable as it is.
