Spectacular panoramic views take your breath away. Ocean, pools, palm trees. Walk out onto the deck and breathe in the fresh sea air, hear the waves -- you are on vacation!
One of only 4 oceanfront CORNER 2 bedroom units on the island! The 2 wide extra side windows overlook a pool, swaying palms and the ocean -- making the villa brighter, offering breezes yet maintaining privacy. No tunnel feeling here! Boardwalk to the beach is conveniently just under our condo. Can't get much closer.
Completely renovated villa beautifully decorated in light, soothing colors. Modern kitchen, breakfast bar, formal dining table or al fresco dining on the deck. Free internet, Roku, cable and 3 large flat screen TVs. Master bedroom with King bed (new mattress 2025), updated Master bathroom with regular/rain shower and 2 vanities. Second bedroom with 2 twin beds and a bathroom with standard tub/shower. USB charging ports in major rooms. Condo sleeps 4 (no sleeper sofa). Full size washer & dryer.
WE ARE SERIOUS ABOUT THE 4 PERSON MAXIMUM!!! Have a camera overlooking the front door to check arrivals as we have been misled in past. NOT A SUITABLE UNIT FOR PEOPLE WITH MOBILITY ISSUES DUE TO STAIRS. 13 exterior steps, interior has bedrooms on second floor of unit.
Watch the sunrise while having coffee on the deck! Nap on your private deck or by one of 3 sparkling pools! Enjoy the sounds of birds chirping, gentle waves breaking, and cross breezes in the palms while reading a good book. Take a long sunset walk on 2.5 miles of private beach while ghost crabs skitter into their holes and shorebirds skim the waves or crowd the water’s edge foraging for food. View nesting egrets and herons with their chicks in the rookeries-with turtles and alligators sunning in the shallows below.
Children can build sand castles, learn all about turtles; play in the gentle surf or any of the 3 pools. Crab or cast for shrimp at the crabbing dock, surf-fishing at the beach. Witness huge loggerhead turtles nesting or their tiny hatchlings making their way down the beach on the beginning of a long journey to the Sargasso Sea.
Guests have free access to the Beach and Racquet Club (BRC) containing: fitness center, tennis and pickle ball courts, basketball court, baby pool, playground, badminton court. Rent bikes, kayaks etc nearby. The Turtle’s Nest store at the BRC rents bikes, has snacks, clothing, local arts and gifts.
Harbor Island is a very special place. Private gated community with 24/7 security, 2.5 miles of beach, 3 gorgeous pools, so peaceful. You will want to extend your vacation indefinitely.

We have stayed here several times and always enjoy our stay. The house is clean and welcoming. The kitchen well stocked. Communication will Candace is top notch and she was helpful and communicative when an issue (that was out of her hands) came up. Will definitely be back!
A lovely place to spend a week. The windows give multiple views of the beach and sky. A perfect spot for enjoying the sunrise over the ocean. The villa is so comfortable and well appointed and spotless. Candace was on point giving suggestions and pointing out activities for the week. All in all a great stay.

Thank you Betsy! Delighted to host you. I do love hearing from happy guests😁
We had a great time exploring the South Carolina sea Islands. This condo had a great view of the water. The island was nice and relaxing and not crowded. Candice was great to work with and her place had everything we needed for a week stay.

Thank you so much for your review! That’s what we like to hear :)
We really enjoyed our stay here. Super clean. Beautiful views. Owners were very kind and responsive. The condo had so much there. Games, so many kitchen items, and towels. We really loved the island and it has become our new favorite place. We will definitely be returning next year!

Thank you for your positive review and the flowers! We are glad our renovations had the desired impact and made for an enjoyable stay! Come again :)
This condo had the perfect location. You are steps away from the pool and a two minute walk to the beach. The ocean water is calm at the beach. The property was clean and communication with property owner was great. The only thing we didn’t care for was the ring camera on the deck. This seemed a bit invasive. Great place to stay.

Thank you for your kind review. The deck camera is only to check beach weather conditions. Guests are not within view.
We had a great time at Harbor Island. The house had great ocean views and the beach was quiet and perfect. We will likely stay again at the same location in 2024.

Amazing Views!
The villa was beautiful and had amazing views! We had a very relaxing vacation.
This condo is in the perfect location for a small family. We have been visiting the Lowcountry of South Carolina for 13 years and this condo is the ONLY place on Harbor Island I’ve been eager to return to. We’ve stayed for two weeks (in two different summers) now and I can’t wait to go back again! Gorgeous views of the ocean from inside and outside the unit. Super close and convenient access to both the beach and pools from the unit. Lovely comfy furnishings throughout, great beds, fully-operational kitchen with *everything* you need, and very clean and tidy. I truly can’t recommend this place enough. 10 stars!

Thank you so much for your awesome review! Wow, 10 stars! We’re blushing 😊
Listing exactly as shown. Very clean, master bed seems to be memory foam, very comfortable. The kitchen had all of the necessities and then some! The condo was remarkably quiet despite the always almost full parking lots. Multiple pools available for use, the deeper of the three was super clean. The view from the deck was picture perfect! Candace (host), was wonderful. Messages were answered promptly, she was an absolute pleasure.
Such a relaxing, perfect place to stay for our family of 3. Right on the beach, lots of amenities, and great communication with the owner. Would definitely stay again. This was our first time at the location and we were very pleased with everything!

Thank you! So happy when new families discover Harbor Island, our little slice of Heaven😊 Come back soon!
This was our second time staying here and we enjoyed just as much as the first. Tons of wildlife around, wide open beaches that never seem too crowded, and a beautiful condo with an equally beautiful view. The only thing we didn't like was leaving.
Lovely condo for 2-4 people. Beautiful view of the beach and everything we needed for a week vacation. Clean and comfortable.

This was a great spot for our little family
Vacation. Being right on the beach was wonderful. The waves were nonexistent the first few days, but increased while we were there. The condo is well outfitted and comfortable.

No explanation for the 4 stars other than the waves? I can control a lot - but not the ocean.
The location was wonderful, making movement between beach and pool so easy with the little ones and all the gear in tow. We really appreciated all the thoughtful amenities throughout the unit. It was so clean and comfortable. The check out process was also so lovely which allowed me the time to focus on packing up.

About the host
Hosted by Candace Hanau
Upon retirement we moved to South Carolina and fell in love with the area. We live close to town but love having a nearby beach retreat --we feel like we are on a mini vacation when we are out here! So quiet and close to nature--we know you will fall in love with Harbor Island!
Why they chose this property
Harbor Island is in a special protected nature area called the ACE Basin. There are many species of migratory birds, loggerhead turtles and other wildlife here! We just couldn't believe that we could actually found such an incredible place. We feel very privileged to be here and be able to share it. Corner oceanfront units are a scarce commodity - only four 2 BR on the island!
What makes this property unique
The condo is designed as a serene and light-filled place. One feels at peace and happy the moment you enter. Unique engineering made the condo larger and more comfortable then peers. Corner oceanfront units are a scarce commodity - only four 2 BR on the island! The views, soft furnishings and full electronics provide easy living and entertainment.
