Overall okay
Communication with the property rental company was excellent, and we appreciated the 250 credit for items such as beach chairs, bike rentals, etc. The property is just a ten minute walk to the beach via a paved sand path, which was easy even for our four-year-old.The property was as described, a good size for our family of five (children ages 11, 5, and 4). Hilton Head Prep is located 100 yards from the home, so you’ll hear children throughout the day, not wasn’t a problem for us. There is a pond between the home and the school, home to at least two alligators, but there’s no need for concern as the home and porch are elevated at least 10 feet off the ground.There were two downsides to this property. First, the cleanliness was not ideal. We spent at least 30 minutes on arrival wiping down surfaces and sweeping. While everything that didn’t need to be moved was clean enough, the areas under the beds, side tables, and in the closets were unacceptable. Additionally, we couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was causing it, but our five-year-old, who has sensitive skin, would break out in hives every time we were in the home. We stripped all the sheets, pillowcases, and blankets to wash them and placed a clean blanket over the couches and chairs. This seemed to help, though she went through almost a full bottle of Benadryl in five days.Secondly, the home seems to have poor or no insulation in the roof. The second floor would get very hot, making it uncomfortable at times.
