Getting Around:
Close to the Hilton Head Airport and easy drivability to all the island has to offer. Miles of bike trails can be found across the island from The Spa!

Other Things to Note:
Bugs
We get asked about Palmetto Bugs all the time. Yes, these are roaches and are found pretty much everywhere outside in South Carolina but we like to call them Palmetto Bugs as it makes them sound nicer! They can be pretty big, can fly and will scurry around the floor but they are largely harmless. They do occasionally come inside, especially at night and during or after any storms. Rest assured all of our homes are professionally treated monthly for pests. Any bugs that manage to get inside will die quickly.

According to Eric Benson, Ph.D. professor and extension entomologist at Clemson University “It has nothing to do with cleanliness or the economic conditions of the area,” said Benson. “They could be around the nicest home or the nicest hotel or resort.”

If you leave the doors or windows open, especially at night, you will likely see a few. This is perfectly normal. If you see 20 or 30 all in one place then please let us know. This might mean we have a nest somewhere in the home and we'll need to get pest control out to take care of it. This is extremely rare!

Please don't worry about bugs, enjoy your vacation. You'll likely not see any while you are here, we just include this note so you understand it's not unusual to see some and it doesn't mean the home isn't well looked after!

Gorgeous condo

The condo exceeded our expectations. Nicely decorated, everything we needed (minus some hot pads.) Did not find the beach equipment until the last day, Not snoopers, would be nice if there would have been a label on door or note on table. Steps to the beach was a little misleading. With the tide out it was almost 1/4 mile to the waters edge. I am disabled so never made it that far. ended going to another beach. But the condo was lovely.

Weekend Getaway

All in all this property is fine for what we were looking for. I condo with a pool and a kitchen to cook meals. It delivered and checked all those boxes. The one misleading description is “on the beach”. This community is in the sound, if your familiar HHI you know what that means. If your not familiar with HHI you should know that the sound is very different than true ocean front. There’s very little waves, water is a little more stagnant, low tide can be very mucky and yucky. Lucky for us we know about the public beach access about 2 miles down the road that’s a quick drive and walk to the actual ocean. It seems like a small issue and for the most part it is. But if your renting this condo thinking your going to walk down a quick 2 minutes to the “Beach” you’ll be disappointed. The condo itself is fine, had everything you need for a great vacation. Beds, baths, kitchen and family room are all as advertised. The condo has 2 outdoor pools and 1 indoor facility. All with in a quick 1-2 minute walk from the condo. It was clean for a beach condo and we didn’t have a single issue at all with our stay. Would I stay here again? Yes.

It was perfect! We were walking distance to the ocean which was never crowded. The waves were not big or powerful which gave me comfort for my little grandson. We had the opportunity in the evening to walk out during low tide (that was so interesting). Everything is within 20-25 min drive (Harbor Town, Coligny Beach, Burke Beach, as well as many excellent restaurants). The villa was cute and perfect size for us. They jad everything we needed from brach towels to beach chairs and a pack n play!! We are already talking about going back. Thank You

Clean, safe and close to the beach

Very pleased with our stay. Entire property was clean and well maintained. Felt very much at home and perfect place to relax. Villa was very well stocked with amenities and up to date. Short walk to beach which isn’t always the case in Hilton Head. Beach was a beachcomber’s paradise. Loved the entire experience. Already planning our return in June.

Great condo!

This condo was perfect for my 9 year old daughter and I. She was super excited to have her own room and to be able to see if there were people at the pool before leaving the condo! We loved the green space in the community with beautiful fountains and bench swings. We also really enjoyed the pools and jacuzzi. My only suggestion would be to install additional deadbolts on the outside doors. Housekeeping came right in on Saturday even though we weren’t leaving until Monday. If there was an additional lock so people couldn’t just walk in it would’ve made me a lot more comfortable. Same for the door in the second bedroom. It made me nervous to have my daughter in there with a door to the outside that didn’t have a strong deadbolt. Otherwise we loved this condo!!

Access to the beach is just to walk but no to swim. If you want to swim, you have to go to other places. The water is very shallow, full of sharp seashells!

Adequate Place

This villa was older than we expected but it was very comfortable for our needs. We appreciated the care and contact with management company of unit. Nice location to pool (not heated) and Port Royal Sound. Air conditioning worked well and was needed for our Mid-May stay. Nothing is provided in way of salt, pepper, coffee filters, etc. Ice maker did not work well and shower/tub drains were slow allowing water to accumulate while showering. Beds were adequate but not great as were the furnishings. We enjoyed our stay and would consider staying here again.

Good time but the place was just ok

We really enjoyed our stay on Hilton Head Island but the location of this property isn’t in walking or biking distance to shopping and restaurants. The place could use updating especially the unit needs new mattresses and the toilets are way to small (toddler size). It’s located by the airport and there was continuous planes flying over us while sitting by the pool. Luckily this place was inexpensive and now we know why.

Great Location

This location was perfect for my family. The windows face the pool that is the larger of the outdoor pools. From the pool you cannot look into the unit so privacy is not an issue. The unit was very clean and had plenty of towel for my four kids and my husband and I. I would recommend to bring your own beach towels. The beach was perfect for my children. They searched for shells and walked way out when the tide was out but also went swimming and body boarded. I enjoyed the pool so much! Beautiful Pools!!! This location was close to shopping and site seeing. We would come here again. It is close the airport and you can hear and see the planes when outside. We never heard them in the unit. Just a well maintained spot. If you plan to come to party all night and drink at the pools and beach, this is not your location. Family friendly.

Overall was a good, “beach” not so much of a beach

However, the port:beach was not so great. My husband and son got sweep by the current and we bad to call 911 to save them…after the 30 minute ordeal, they were able to cone back to shore without any assistance bc it took 20 minutes for help to arrive! And we did not get any follow up with the resort to make sure they were okay! No signs to warn us of the current! Just glad I got my boys back safe!

Quiet Location, Great Beach

This was our second trip to The Spa on Hilton Head Island. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet and calm of this end of the island. It's convenient to everything, about 20 minutes from anything you'd want to do, but somewhat secluded so you can enjoy the beach area without crowds. We love the calm ocean waves, too. The beach is massive, with lots of room to spread out. The condo itself was perfect. Everything was just as pictured, very clean, and being a first-floor unit, was very convenient. I loved being able to check out the pool crowd before we headed out to the bigger pool, which is just down the porch to the left and around the corner. We also enjoyed the indoor pool, hot tub, and sauna. We basicaly were the only ones in there each time we used it. The smaller, shady outdoor pool was also never crowded. The larger pool, however, was hit or miss. There were days toward the end of our trip that the pool was absolutely swamped with a huge crowd of people, people drinking alcohol, playing loud music, and sticking around the majority of the day. That was disappointing because we like things less crowded, but this was no fault of the owners of the condo. The king size bed was very comfy. I slept like a rock each night. The entire condo was nicely laid out. My one suggestion would be to reduce the number of knick-knacks on the counters and tables. We had to move them to make room for our things. Less is more and I would have liked more room to put my things without having to shuffle decorations around. In conclusion, I highly recommend this unit and complex. We enjoyed our vacation greatly!
