Girls weekend

We were 7 girlfriends on “adult spring break” - the unit was beautiful and very well-equipped, with plenty of room to spread out and ample seating. I hope we can make this an annual trip.

Disappointed

Deck furniture removed for painting purposes never available for our whole stay of a month. No partial refund offered or received. We requested repair of the lock on the patio door as the painters had access to the deck and free access into the condominium, so we felt very insecure. We had to arrange our own parking passes for the last two weeks. We felt we should have been informed about the deck furniture sooner and thus able to find another property to rent. We would not rent there again.

Very Disappointed

Property needed a deep cleaning. Many areas had not been looked after for some time and carpets had many stains. We don't mind dated decor but there is no excuse for not being maintained. There was no welcome package or parking passes on our arrival and only got them the next day after contacting property manager. 2 weeks later the same thing - we had to request parking passes and got them 2 days after we should have. garbage disposal broken, screen doors were broken and none were fixed after several requests. dining chairs had loose arms and we were told "not to worry about it." I had to ask four times to get an ironing board cover - not an unreasonable request considering we were staying a month. We have been renting for 14 years and have never had issues as we had with this rental. It's a shame because view is fabulous . Our holiday should not have to be spent chasing an indifferent property manager.

Location location location!!!

Our stay in this beautiful villa was only surpassed by the excellent location in Shelter Cove. Minutes to shops, and grocery store. Entertainment right below in a variety of different bars and restaurants although being in the villa you never hear a peep... it's so quiet and spacious. My family and I agreed this was our best vacation and we will return next year for sure. Loved every second ! Million dollar view!

Shelter cove harbour - number 1 on the island

The villa is located in Shelter Cove Marina on Hilton Head Island. The shelter cove harbor is THE place to be: great dining, live music every evening, beaches nearby (Palmetto Dunes) are easy accessible. Bike trails all around. The villa is located on the 4th floor with a stunning overview of the harbor. Fully equipped kitchen, clean facilities, jacuzzi. What more can you get?? We had a perfect stay!

Harbourside II Penthouse

We stayed at the Harbourside II Penthouse for three nights. The view is the saving grace for this property, probably one of the best in the area. Having said that, the unit is very dated (we knew this when we rented based on the pictures), and was also in need of a deep clean. I contacted the owners (Mary Beth) who was more than accommodating and tried to do everything she could to help our stay. It does need to be noted that she does not live in the area, and is relying on a property manager to oversee and fix any issues. A cleaning crew did get sent over on day 2 of our stay to touch up some problem areas, but I feel a deeper clean and basic maintenance issues (several burned out light bulbs...we ended up digging around and replaced the ones we needed) should be addressed and should have been fixed before we arrived. Mary Beth did contact the property manager and again, I felt as though she did everything she could to help from afar. I didn't want to waste my entire time worrying about the issues, so we didn't contact the owner again. Based on our conversations, I'm sure she would have fixed the problems, but we wanted to enjoy our time on the Island and not spend our days in the house.

The villa was very comfortable. Everything my family and I needed was provided. The area had alot shopping and activities. The only inconvenience was having to walk next door to our pool access for the kids but other than that everything was perfect. We will defiantly like to stay again.

Stunning property to stay at

This is a long overdue review of this wonderful property. We had the opportunity to stay at this property for 2 weeks in August of 2016 with our 2 adult children and their husbands. The pictures on VRBO do not do this villa justice in terms of it's size. The 2 bedrooms and oversized master bedroom each have attached full sized bathrooms. This was such a plus for us because it allowed each couple to have privacy and their own space. TV's in each room a plus. Drinks on the balcony each night while enjoying the amazing view was great. This condo is so convenient to shopping and restaurants. One day we rented a pontoon boat right out of Shelter Cove and enjoyed a top 10 day. We most certainly will be back next year. Loved everything about the condo.

December stay at Shelter Cove

The location was wonderful - walking distance to restaurants, shops and grocery stores. The condo is quite spacious and comfortable. However, as mentioned in previous reviews, it could use some updating. Carpet stains, peeling paint etc. make it feel a little run down. My husband seemed to be allergic to something on the first floor, which we never figured out - (possibly a cleaning fluid or something in the upholstery?) Nonetheless, we enjoyed our stay.

Very spacious and comfortable!

We were very pleased with the property. It's hard to find a condo with 3 bedrooms that has each his/her on bathroom, but this one does. It is very spacious and decorated lovely. It is a little dated but very comfortable. The balcony faces the harbor which is beautiful! It's close to restaurants, shopping and beach access is across the street. We would highly recommended this unit and would most likely rent it again if we decided to venture back to Hilton Head Island. If you decide to rent this condo, I would suggest taking your own washing machine detergent, as they request you start a load of towels before leaving.

Large, comfortable villa with exceptional views!

We stayed in this villa for New Year's Eve weekend and it worked really well for us. We are two "mature" couples who travel together pretty frequently and have rented extensively with VRBO. This villa lived up to expectations and in some cases exceeded. We loved the location in Shelter Cove and really enjoyed the beautiful views from the balcony. Sadly we experienced a good bit of rain during our stay so we weren't really able to get in as much "balcony time" as we would have liked, especially with the unseasonably warm weather! We particularly liked the bistro height table and chairs that allowed for great views of the harbor. There are a couple of things that the discription did not mention that we thought were great plusses! There is a Jennaire range on the balcony that worked perfectly! We cleaned it up and used it to cook some chicken wings in a pan! If we had had more time there, we likely would have used it to cook steaks or something else. We LOVE to grill and didn't think we would have a chance to do so. Another added bonus is that this villa has a BEAUTIFUL wet bar! We are always delighted to find a wet bar so that there is a place to put our liquor and wine and to mix drinks. I had asked the property owner if there was a martini shaker available, and she made sure there was (a brand new) one available. I greatly appreciated that nice touch! The only reason I am not giving this property five stars is because there are some maintenace and housekeeping issues. I shared these with the property owner and I feel like she will take care of them. This villa is older, so it has some wear, but it is a great value in a wonderful location. I would definitely rent this one again!

Gorgeous property with stunning view!

We enjoyed our stay during Thanksgiving at this beautiful condo. The common areas are spacious and the view is stunning. The bedrooms give plenty of room to have your own space. There is some minor wear and tear, but this did not detract from the overall beauty. It was great to be able to walk downstairs for dinner and drinks. The condo is advertised as wheelchair accessible but the threshold made it was difficult entering/exiting the condo. The downstairs bedroom has double doors which made it easy to enter in a wheelchair; however, it was difficult getting into the adjacent bathroom and there were no grip bars in the downstairs bathroom. It would also be nice to have a small ramp at one of the doors going out to the balcony. The rugs on top of the plus carpet also made movement in a wheelchair difficult. Overall it was a great stay and Mary Beth and Michael were easy to work with. Despite the wheelchair accessibility issue, we wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

We had the luxury of staying for two weeks this year! The first week included our children and grandchildren but the second week was for us and 2 other couples who are dear friends of ours...we had a wonderful time. We have stayed here many times in the past and have always had a wonderful time. It was a good location and setting for all!

Wonderful location and view

Can't say enough about location. It rained a lot during our stay and it was so convenient to just go downstairs without getting wet to eat or shop. Views were outstanding. Condo was clean, comfortable and the layout let everyone have their own space. Only negative was TVs in bedrooms were hard to operate. Would definatly stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Mark McCarthy

Welcome to our villa and thank-you for taking the time to read about us! We are the McCarthy's. As a family we have been vacationing on Hilton Head Island for the last 20 years and in 2002 we made the leap, we bought a villa!! To say that it was one of the best things we ever did is an understatement. This is our home away from home and you'll know that the moment you enter the front door. One of our most favorite things to do is to grab a cup of coffee first thing in the morning, relax on the balcony while we take in the comings and goings of the boaters and kayakers in the marina or out on Broad Creek. In the evening, the same holds true with a glass of wine and a spectacular sunset! The view is one in a million. Need we say any more?

Why they chose this property

When we first vacationed on HHI we rented on the beach..always! However, when we started looking for property our realtor suggested that we look at waterfront marina property. At first we were hesitant but the moment we walked into our villa we knew we were going to buy it. The view was/is a show stopper! What we didn't know was how convenient to everything it was. Walk out the door and you have a choice of wonderful restaurants and bars. The grocery store is easily accessable by bike if you wish to get in some exercise. Boat and kayak rentals are all located within the marina as well. The beach? We have access to 2 spectacular beaches, Dunes Beach House and Disney both of which are within biking distance or what we do is load up the car and drive there (roughly 2 minutes!). Never once have we regretted not buying on the beach!

What makes this property unique

If you have little ones and have vacationed on HHI before you've probably seen Shannon Tanner. He plays nightly during the summer months right below our villa. While you can't actually see the show from our balcony, you can see the top of the pavillion he plays in! So we are very close.
