My daughter and I rented in this villa for one full month in January into early February of 2016, while we attended the nearby Hilton Head Health Institute. This villa is super clean, nicely renovated, lots of room, pretty views, nicely appointed kitchen (we did some cooking), new appliances including washer/dryer and stove/oven/microwave and dishwasher, living room is bright (when you open the shades) with new, comfortable furniture. Nice back deck, picnic table, views of the Shipyard golf course and the waterway, plenty of parking. The living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry, and half bath are on the first floor. The bedrooms are both on the second floor, with the master bedroom with king bed toward the back and the second bedroom with two twin beds toward the front, and each bedroom has its own very nice bathroom. A very nice layout.
The property manager (Hilton Head Properties) and our contact there Darcey did an excellent job of making sure that all our needs were fulfilled, answered questions quickly, provided all the amenities (towels, complimentary bag of Starbucks Breakfast Blend coffee, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, paper goods, full compliment of plates and glasses and silverware). We arranged with them for housekeeping service halfway through our stay, and the housekeepers did a beautiful and thorough job.
My only very minor issue is that the villas in this complex (The Cottages) were not originally designed for winter use, I think, so when January temperatures reached down to 30 degrees the first floor of the villa was a little drafty even though the heat was running full blast. But we just threw on sweatshirts and we were fine, and this would only affect someone on an especially cold day in the dead of winter (like us).
This villa is just a short drive from grocery stores, drugstores, miniature golf, movie theaters, and much much more, in addition to being just 2 blocks from Hilton Head Health. It's a beautiful area, with birds and lovely trees and biking trails.
I have stayed in three different villas here in The Cottages during the various years I've come to visit Hilton Head Health, and this one is the best I've been in. I would highly recommend this villa, and when I return to Hilton Head in the future, I will definitely try to book this same villa again. Thanks to the owners and property manager for a lovely stay!
