The Pearl was pretty much as pictured: clean, well appointed and in a great location. Close enough to activities but far enough away to be peaceful. Good choice for a couple wanting to be in Shelter Cove. Communication with host and check in were smooth. Two thumbs up!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The owner communicated in a very helpful way throughout the booking process and our stay there. The unit was clean and nicely furnished and we felt like there were so many extras provided in the unit. We loved the location! The view of the harbor was so nice. We sat outside every morning on the balcony. Palmetto Dunes is an amazing place to visit. We will definitely return!

Perfect get away!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at “The Pearl”. It was the most well equipped VRBO we have ever stayed at. The owner was available before and during our stay to answer any questions we had. We were able to walk to restaurants and hear live music. The pool and hot tub were adjacent to the building. Sitting on the balcony you can view the most amazing sunsets over the water. As we left, my husband said this was an “Epic” vacation….

Bike Accident Recovery & Birthday Week

The pearl has more comforts and extras than you’ll find anywhere! The decor is just the right balance of luxury, comfort and coastal charm. The balcony is the perfect spot to watch fireworks and dolphin in the bay. Live music is a short walk, along with the bike path and kayak/boat rentals. We loved the condo and location. It well stocked with anything we could possibly need and if we did need something, the owner made it happen! We will definitely stay again!

The condo was everything and more than what we expected. Beautifully decorated with every necessity needed for a week’s stay. Home away from home! The location in Hilton Head is excellent for seeing so much of the wildlife right from our balcony. There was so much to do down in the marina area and the restaurants were very good. Our host was exceptionally good in making our stay so easy. Detailed instructions on how to make the most of our stay. Several suggestions on how to navigate the area. We had the best of both worlds - access to a beautiful pool or easy location to get to the beach. We highly recommend this property.

Fantastic!

First time visiting HH and was not disappointed. Egan was just a fantastic host! Provided so many great details & tips. The condo exceeded our expectations. Very clean and just as nice as the pictures. Condo was perfect for 2 and was very well stocked with all the comforts of home. We enjoyed the fireworks from the balcony. We walked to dinner most nights and the shuttle to the beach was perfect. Loved watching all the boats and we even saw an alligator from the balcony. Such a great location with an amazing host!!

The Pearl is a true treasure

My husband and I recently enjoyed a relaxing week at The Pearl. We love Hilton Head and have vacationed there many times with our children. This was our first full week just us and The Pearl made it feel so special. Every detail has been thought of to make your stay easy and relaxing. The balcony was one of our favorite spots. We love seeing the changing tides and all the wildlife. The ability to walk to the Shelter Cove marina and the restaurants and shops is so nice. We enjoyed multiple dinners with music and yummy breakfasts at the bakery. The beach access is so easy and just beautiful. Don't forget to try out the hot tub, the view is amazing. We will be back!

Peaceful, calm and cozy getaway at HH

We had the most amazing week at the Shelter Cove and Marina in HH. We loved the Boardwalk and all it’s activities, shops and fine dining, all in view of the beautiful boats and marina. We especially loved the condo with our balcony overlooking it all. Our condo was so very nice, beautifully decorated and quiet. The manager was the best one we have ever had. No matter the need, or question or tips we had requested, she was super on top of everything! In all of our vacations never have we had this much attention to detail and such quick responses. May her tribe increase!

We had a great time!

This is a great property! We didn't realize how perfect of a location this is until our visit. We knew it was on the water but it's also in view of a beautiful upscale marina with top restaurants in walking distance. Also there are fireworks every Tuesday evening in the summer and The Pearl has front row seats right on the balcony! The condo is very nicely appointed with beautiful stone floors and stone counters throughout, very modern appliances, a comfortable bed, and very nice furniture. The pictures on the listing are not touched up, The Pearl is even better in person. We will book again when we come back to HH. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Property in a Fantastic Location!

We just got home from our stay in Shelter Cove on Hilton Head Island. The "Pearl" is in an awesome location, close to great restaurants and shopping. And the view from the balcony is fantastic. Perfect place to watch the fireworks on Tuesday night and a perfect place to relax, enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine and watch the dolphins. The Pearl itself is very comfortable and beautifully appointed with lovely furnishings. And the bed was super comfortable! I can see why Egan is rated a super host....she has spoiled me for all others! Communication was excellent, very timely with tons of helpful information and suggestions. I can't say enough good things about Egan and our stay at the Pearl. Highly recommend without any reservations!

a "PEARL" for sure!!

Egan certainly named this amazing condo perfectly. The Pearl is located in one of the best locations for so many reasons. You walk out on the balcony & relax the evening sunsets while watching the boats leaving Shelter Cove marina. Oh & fireworks without traffic & hassle; we called it our own private show! Enjoyed the beach everyday thanks to the free Palmetto Buggy with the nicest drivers! Egan was an amazing host from the time I inquired about renting. Pictures really do not show how beautifully high end decorated The Pearl is. Slept like a baby every night. Wish we could’ve stayed longer & cannot wait to visit again!!! Beyond 5 stars :)

Perfect and Pristine in every way!

If I could give this property 10 stars I would! Everything is perfect from the moment you walk through the door. The unit is decorated beautifully!! Kitchen is fully stocked from spices to koozies for out by the pool which is literally next door to the unit. Location, location , location! Within walking distance to restaurants , ice cream shop, bakery, all on a boardwalk overlooking a Marina with beautiful boats. You see all those beautiful boats cruising right by your balcony which is furnished with nice,comfy furniture. In the closet on the balcony you'll find beach chairs and pool toys. Plenty of parking and a bike rack. Bike rental and water activity rental next to the building also. The owner Egan is amazing, she will make 100% certain everything is perfect for your perfect vacation in her condo! You will not be disappointed, we plan to return often!!

Wonderful property!

When searching for properties in Hilton Head we didn't have any frame of reference on where to stay. We feel that we were so fortunate to find "The Pearl" in the Palmetto Dunes area. From the time that we booked Egan was in contact with us and helped us plan our week. The property was exactly as described and even better. It was very clean, no bugs and in a quiet peaceful area. We thought we wanted to stay beachfront but this was so much better. Egan had given notice that we would be by for our parking and entry pass and it was ready and waiting for us. That pass allowed us entry into the best private beach areas. We drove in a couple of times and rode bikes in another time. We loved riding our bikes on the beach! Wish we would have done more bike riding. Shopping was also very close by for anything we needed along with a couple of restaurants. Our favorite, Hudsons Seafood House was a little bit out of the area but was one of our favorites along with Pamodori Italian Restaurant. Great food. We took a Craig Cat tour with Bluewater Adventure which was right next door from the property. We loved everything about this place from start to finish. Egan is a great host and has thought of everything you might need for your stay. We hope to be able to come back and try some things we didn't have time for and would definitely would hope to stay here again. Thank you Egan for a great week in HHI!
