First time visiting South Carolina. Loved the location of the house! Less than 10 min walk - mostly in the shade - to the beach. Very short driving distance to the beach park and other restaurants. House was clean, spacious, comfortable. More than enough essentials for the stay.Area was quiet and fairly private.. Although we definitely made some new friends - lizards, birds, deer!Would definitely stay again!

Spent 2 weeks and enjoyed the quiet setting and the layout of the condo. The kitchen was a nicely stocked room and a short walk to the beach. The bed was comfortable however the carpet should be replaced. We were surprise to even have bikes, chairs all included. It was a good value for us and would be plenty of room for a family.

Loved everything about this property. The home was impeccably clean and inviting. The location is just a couple of minutes away from the beach in a nice quiet neighborhood. The available pool, tennis court and pickleball courts make this a great place for the whole family.

Our place was good. The code didnt work. Someone did come and let us in. That was ok. But the rug was filthy. Someone had boots on that stayed there. Black. The beach towels were fabulous!!@
We loved this little villa, it was perfect for our family of four. There are lots of pathways to the beach, no more than five minutes from the beach. It’s close to lots of shopping and restaurants. Definitely would stay here again

Lindsey, thanks for the great review of 12 Ocean Gate. Let us know when you want to come back. We'd love to host your next stay!
This property was very well furnished, tasteful artwork and just minutes to the beach. We walked right off our deck to the pool. Kitchen was very well appointed. This was a relaxing, quiet area and we had a great time!

Connie, it sounds like 12 Ocean Gate was a perfect fit for your stay. This really is a great area and a lovely place to relax and enjoy your time on HHI. We would love to host you again. Just let us know when you want to return!
This condo is very nice except the carpet is very dated and dirty!
The rest of the condo has many new features and is in a perfect location.
If the carpet is replaced it would be great for four guests.

Was very clean. Close to beach and pool. Had a fully stocked kitchen of dishes, etc. Bed in Master very comfy. Lots of books for reading. Carpet badly needs cleaning or replacing and deck is in need of some repair.

Great spot near the ocean. Short walk but take a wagon if you have very much “stuff”. Very well stocked condo, managers thought of everything! Our new favorite place to stay.

Brian, thank you for the 5-star rating for 12 Ocean Gate. We're so glad you enjoyed the villa and have found your favorite vacation home away from home. We hope you will return often!
We have staying in Ocean Gate Villas several times. It’s close to the beach and the pool is not packed with people. The house has been kept up nicely and is one of the nicer units. It was great having supplies and real soaps, etc available. We could not get into our unit at first so we had to call them super late and they were very nice about it. Only drawback was paying way too much to add an extra night on the front of our stay. This might have contributed to our issue getting in. Thank you for sharing your property with us.

Not great
We spent a week at this property and they were very gracious getting us in early since we were already on the island. The rest however was less than. The property advertises a pool which was not opened and will remain closed until April 1. It also advertises shampoo and conditioner in the bathrooms which there was none. The carpet is atrocious and needs to be torn up and replaced. The staining and grime in it forced us to keep our shoes on the whole time. When I move the couch there was food, crumbs and loose change for the finding. The property appears to be a DIY fixer upper. If you're operating on a budget it works fine. Please do not come here if you're expecting a clean environment. Once we found our way to the beach we spent the majority of our time there.

Reviewer Comments:
the unit is ideally located and having a pool and tennis court just in the backyard was great. The location was quiet, very close (5 minute walk to a nearly private beach). In general the unit was good, size layout etc. Beds were very comfortable. A few specific comments; the carpets are in very bad shape and be better changed out to a tile/linoleum at least downstairs. Also the sofas and oversized chairs did not feel clean, there were some recepticale covers missing downstairs and outside, also some lights did not work. Handles on appliances, light switches and cabinets were sticky and needed wiped down. with a little better cleaning, a few minor repairs and a changed flooring the unit would be great.
A few quick notes to add to other recent reviews:
- Host2Coast were fantastic, providing a very clean home, pool towels (in addition to the linens and bath towels), and a welcome gift of a beach bag and 2 cold-koozies and cookies, as well as some cookies and popcorn
- Great home for 4 (we were mom & dad and 2 sons) - would have been a bit tight for more than 4 (as that would have required someone on a pullout couch)
- We timed the walk as between 6-7 minutes from the villa to the chairs at the end of the man made path; might be a bit longer if you are lugging beach chairs and any equipment
- The pool was nice, and incredibly close to the backyard deck, but we never made it in (although we washed the sand off at the faucet outside the pool each day)
- If you like to bring large/closed containers of cold beverages, bring your own holders or buy when there (otherwise, the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need, and a freezer that made ice)
- Really enjoyed the stay - the only thing in need of potential upkeep is the carpet (a bit worn), and the rug under the dining room table (which looked to be taped down, but did not stay put - likely just needs to be swapped out).
- Great stay, villa was convenient to all areas of Hilton Head, and very comfortable for our family!
