Nice Unit and Great Communication
Small yet cozy, right on the bay. Fun to have the tide go out and walk out onto the sandbars. We visited the last week of March, and the weather was not cooperative; extremely gusty, windy and rainy, which is probably typical. The complex is a bit dated; the unit itself was tidy and clean but had a bit of a musty smell and could use new carpeting and adult-sized toilets. Feral cats are everywhere, but harmless. The owners were extremely communicative and offered any assistance if needed. Coming from Upstate New York, we were unimpressed with HHI, its surroundings, and the traffic, but not the rental property itself. We will stick to Myrtle Beach area.

Wonderful tidal beach, great condo, fabulous hosts!
The condo was wonderful and had everything we needed for our stay. The condo community garden/beach/pier were beautiful. We enjoyed a lot of time exploring the beach at different times of the tide. So much to do and explore around Hilton Head and close enough for a day trip to Savannah. Bob and Debbie were excellent hosts and gave us great recommendations on restaurants and activities in the area.

Five Weeks in Terribly Maintained Property
Walking through the door, the first thing I saw was FILTHY carpeting. As the next hour progressed, more and more problems became evident. The kitchen cabinets were packed with useless, as well as duplicate, items. There were 6 frying pans, all with no lids, but only two small saucepans. No place for food items that we needed to store. Broken blinds, scratchy towels, sheets too small for bed, filth in the laundry area. Communication with owner was a series of, "I'm so sorry." Surprise walk-in by Orkin man. He just walked in, having been giving the key code. We were not aware that this could happen, again, "I'm so sorry." We couldn't get TV to operate, "I don't really know anything about it."

Could have been better
Met our needs as far as a place to sleep, shower, and prepare meals. The pool was very nice. If you’re looking for a great beach experience, a property on the ocean would be better than this one which was on the sound. Our only complaint is that the condo was sorely in need of a deep cleaning/dusting.

Hilton Head Heaven
This was our first time to stay on this part of HH, and it was amazing! Labor Day weekend is usually a time for crowds, but the resort was quiet with lots of space at the pools and beach. It is an older resort near the airport, but the planes never bothered us at all. The condo was very adequate for four adults and two young children. The beds were so comfy! The kitchen had plenty of dishes, cookware, and dishwasher detergent. The bathrooms had cute decorations, and it was nice having two full baths. The little porch was so fun to sit on with a beach umbrella and lots of chairs to borrow. We visited all three pools and they were wonderful. The pier, the swing, the benches....all made it so relaxing. When the tide goes out there is so much beach to explore. Warning: wear sandals and be careful of plough mud! We never knew the tide went out that far! It was so cool! Bob was incredibly responsive to any questions and concerns we had. He sent us incredibly detailed check in and check out directions. Our family will definitely stay here again!

Great Place
The whole complex is nice and well kept. The unit was clean and located close to the beach. Just a few minute drive to get to other places near by. We would stay again if we went back to HHI. The only downfall was the beach and that is no part the unit owners fault. When the tide was in, there really wasn’t a place for the kids to play due to the sticks washed up on the beach. My kids only went out when the tide was low and you could walk out really far. Sunsets in the area was gorgeous!!! We seen many ocean wildlife such as horseshoe crabs, jellyfish, small crabs and a few big crabs.

Great location!
We loved the location of the condo within the complex as well as the beach on Port Royal Sound. It's not a swimming beach but the natural beauty is amazing. The condo itself was comfortable and well equipped. The kitchen is a bit small and dated, but fine for our needs. My only feedback would be that the baseboards and ceiling fans need a good scrub and the drains in both bathroom sinks and the guest tub were slow running. Overall we had a great week and hope to return again soon!

We had a fantastic time on HHI and the resort was absolutely amazing! Beautiful grounds and amenities. The private beach was gorgeous and seemed untouched by civilization. It was uncrowned and beaming with wildlife. Excellent family friendly place to visit. Our condo was adorable and just steps from sand. Very comfortable and laid back with all the amenities you could need. We wish we could have stayed longer. The hosts were absolutely amazing and gave us tips on the local attractions and best restaurants on the island. We can’t wait to visit again!

Serene area of Hilton Head
Our 1st time visit to Hilton Head was wonderful. From the beginning to the end, we had great communication with Bob, the owner. The condo, first floor, was well stocked with dishes, glassware, paper products, etc. Everything was in working order, i.e. appliances, showers TV, WIFI, etc. There was also a very informative binder we found very useful. We also had the opportunity to "break in" the new living room furniture. The dining room set also appeared to be fairly new. The outside had beautiful landscaping and it was well kept and clean outside. We had great water views of the sound and the ocean beyond. An added bonus was all the wonderful wildlife we got to see and hear. We would love to return, hopefully later in the spring when it's warmer.

The PERFECT Christmas location!!!
The condo was wonderful! Only a few steps from the beach and a wonderful view from the Carolina room. There are only 5 steps up to get to the condo. Bob and Debbie have thought of everything…extra blankets, beach chairs, games, pots and pans, even a first aid kit! The communication was great…they’re so kind and helpful. We love staying on the sound, rather than the more “wavy” beaches. SC had record cold temperatures but we still watched the sunrise over the ocean on Jesus’s birthday. We played games and watched Christmas movies every night. A wonderful trip indeed. We will definitely be back!

Beach Holiday
The unit is mere yards from the beach - wonderful. It was fine for our purposes. We had two small problems with A/C and plumbing in a four week stay. The owner reacted quickly and resolved the issues. I would recommend the unit to others. We had one disaster at the end which marred our visit. We were parking in the handicap slot because my wife has significant mobility issues and has a certificate in the car window. Some one dcided they were not pleased with us after over three weeks of our visit so they took action by scewing a scew into the sidewall of a brand new tire. It was ruined of course and codt three hundred dollars to replace, Theoffice said they were sorry and would have the security man come and take a report. He never appeared in the two days between the incident and our departure. We were not impressed with Port Royal Spas reaction.

Great time and great location.
The property is exactly as advertised. We didn't use the pools but they looked nice. The view was pretty and it is very close to the water. You can step outside and hear the waves. There are several beaches close by and lots of history. We recommend visiting the historical places nearby. The owner was very easy to communicate with and took care of any issues we had promptly. I would recommend staying here.

Great quiet location
We have stayed in many ...MANY different rentals on HHI, all were down near Coligny. For our needs, when we had younger children with us that fit the bill. Near other young people, a beach with waves, shops and restaurants. When we began visiting in our own we found that we migrated up towards Mitchellville Historic site for the birding and quiet. This prompted us to rent this location and we were VERY pleased. The condo was exactly what we needed (even more to be honest), very assessable to pool and beach as well. We had everything we needed to make ourselves breakfast in the mornings and sit out in a porch swing as the sun came up. So calm and beautiful watching the birds, walking in the pluff mud & observing the crabs. If you are looking for less hustle and bustle this is the right place for you. The owners were great, even suggesting their favorite restaurants (we always ask looking for new places but often do not get replies but we did from this owner). Thank you very much we will plan a trip back to the same place soon.
