We decided to take the family to Hilton Head Island. Our son and daughter joined us, so we rented the North Forest Beach - Castle by the Sea.
We have been property owners at Hilton Head for 16 years. After selling our condo we wanted to try the Castle by the Sea house due to the photos on the VRBO site and the fact is was in North Forest Beach.
We communicated with Melynda, the property owner prior to arriving, and she was always responsive and answered my questions. We arrived early to Hilton Head and stayed at a hotel and I reached out to Melynda to see if there was any chance for an early check-in. She talked to the on-island property management team, and we received a text message we could get in 4 hours earlier than normal. That was great.
The house is very comfortable, we got to try out reclining beds, and all the adults had master suites. The kids had their own rooms and everyone had a great time. The weather wasn't as good as we hoped, but we were able to get to the beach a couple of the days.
It was shocking how close the house is to beach. Our former condo was right on beach, and the walk from Castle-by-the-Sea house to the beach was about the same.
It was also nice to walk to Coligny for shopping, dinners, and refreshments.
This is a great property and I would strongly recommend it!
