Thank you for your review so that we can address the issues you have mentioned in your review. Yes, this unit is not updated like others in the complex and that is why we price it they way we do. We hope that you still had a nice time on Hilton Head!
Check in was easy and the apartment was as advertised. Palmetto Dunes is a great place to stay and we will return.

Thank you for your review. The second bedroom has been updated and the owners are looking to do more this down season, we have set the rental rates accordingly as it is a little more dated than other villas in Captain's Walk.

Reviewer Comments:
4th time staying at Captains Walk, one of the better units we stayed in. Clean, easy to access beach, and quiet. The view was amazing, can see the sunrise from the balcony. Unit can use a couple updates/paint and there was issue with closet door in 2nd bedroom, but I consider these minor issues and did not effect the quality of our stay. I would definitely rent the unit again.
Wonderful location and property grounds. Very short walk to beach was perfect for our kids. Overall the condo was wonderful and we enjoyed our stay. The condo could use some revitalization. It is beginging to show it's age

Property was great. Room was just as advertised in pictures. Room needs a little updating which is why I just gave 4 stars but with new carpet and fridge Would definitely be a 5 star room. Checkin was very easy and contact from host was great. Would definitely stay here again

The property is well taken care of and offers wonderful viewing of the entire area. We have been in some of the other buildings and all have been excellent. The grounds are inviting to walk through and enjoy all the beautiful growth. The units we have rented have all been the same, clean, up to date, and offering extras for our use & nearby shopping.

Thanks Michael, we're glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again in the near future!
Great view, great location, and beautiful property.
We enjoyed this rental. We were able to book this very last minute and enjoyed the breath-taking ocean views, dolphins feeding, fishing boats, and deer on property.
The beds were very comfortable and the condo satisfactorily accommodated. The living room furniture was not very comfortable but we still very much enjoyed our stay and walking proximity to Palmetto Dunes Pickleball club. Very quiet place to stay. Hardly knew we had neighbors with the building’s design.

The place was shabby and dirty. The carpet was filthy. The outlets in the bathroom didn't work so we had to use the hair dryer in the bedroom. The shower was dangerous. Nothing to hold onto. We had to bring a chair from the deck to help us get in and out.

Thank you for your review. If you were unhappy with housekeeping, we wish you would have called for us to send them back to take care of anything you needed. The carpets are cleaned frequently, you are seeing wear and tear.. The bathroom outlets are on a GFCI, so it is possible that it tripped and just needed to be reset. We are always happy to help with anything you need, but we cannot help if we don't receive a call. We do not have the shower listed as handicap accessible because there are not any grab bars installed, we apologize for the inconvenience. We hope you enjoyed your stay otherwise.

We knew the property was very dated but chose to stay because of the ocean front view which is incredible. The Sea Turtles management team is consistently wonderful. We requested a cleaning of the porch which was done well and quickly. Receiving the arrival packet in advance is very efficient for arrival. The furniture, though dated, had comfortable beds.
