Our first trip to Hilton Head was a winner. This home was spectacular! The Management Company was so wonderful before and during our stay. The beach access is fabulous. We loved the pool facing the lagoon too! The area is fabulous too. The Management company even helped with restaurant recommendations!! We want to book our next visit now!!

This home is impeccable! What a treat to stay here and enjoy all the amenities this home and area had to stay. We enjoyed the location and proximity to the beach. It was nice to have bicycles provided and access to rent beach equipment. Every minor issue we had was addressed quickly and efficiently. It was hard to come home!

Very clean, very comfortable house and property. We didn't use the TVs or sound system so I can't speak to them but the kitchen had everything we needed cooking (and a little baking) for 9 people. It was our 3rd time in about 8 years and everyone really enjoyed it.

This home is wonderfully placed in a peaceful surrounding with great views of the tranquil lagoon. We enjoyed the pool and all the outdoor spaces. Our large family was able to gather in all the shared spaces but still be able to enjoy different activities in proximity. The property is well maintained and appointed.
The neighborhood for fabulous to walk and bike around in the shade of the majestic moss flocked oaks. Having the beach a 3 minute walk was perfect.
We had the best time while vacationing at this home in HH. There were 8 adults and 2 young children in the house and we had plenty of space. We were absolutely impressed with all of the features of the home. If you can think of needing something, this house had it. We are also considering doing a thanksgiving stay in this property as it has everything we need. The living space was perfect, the outside areas were amazing and all very convenient to the beach. We felt like we were right at home.
Check in was easy and informative. And the welcome package and pool towels were a plus.
Looking forward to booking our next stay at this amazing property!
The house was just as pictured. Furnishings were tastefully appointed. The view was beautiful and the home was easily accessible to the beach. Everyone had their own room and bath and was most comfortable. The younger members shared the bunk room which was so nice as each bunk had their own curtain for privacy and light for reading, etc.
11 of our family stayed here for a week. It was so beautiful. We loved the kids' room -- two sets of built-in bunk beds, complete with curtains closing each bed, and each wall had its own light. So all 4 kids could read in their own little nests. It was wonderful. Very well stocked and lovely! Nice pool too. The management was very helpful for any questions.
It is no exaggeration to say that our family's time at the home was a perfect 10. The home and its ammenities exceeded our expectations and made for a perfect week. The home's high end finishes and furnishings are so well done, the views of the lagoon are even prettier than pictured, and the outdoor space and landscaping added to our enjoyment. The pool is perfect for a family with young children with ample space for wading and playing in shallow water. We loved the huge fridge, two dishwashers, ice maker with its endless supply, and the ease of preparing meals in the kitchen. There is nothing this home is lacking and we definitely plan to return for future vacations!
We loved this house!! It was so easy to keep a wide range of ages happy and occupied. The pool, fishing area, biking and quick walk to the beach. We will definitely be coming back!
