âSea n Shadeâ is a wonderful place! Everything was just as listed. Conveniently located to everything and just a very short walk to the beach. Very quiet neighborhood and the neighbors were super friendly. Clean and very well appointed and stocked. Communication with the hosts Pam and Paul is very easy. We would definitely recommend to others and we would love to stay again in the future!
Very nice place, and accommodating. Short walk to the beach and everyone we met was so nice. Our dogs had a blast playing on the beach and going for longs walks on the trails.
I was incredibly disappointed with my stay. This rental isnât very guest friendly. First, we had to drive ten minutes to pick up the parking pass. And the biggest disappointment was that a few hours before we were due to check in, we received a note from the host informing that the pool had been closed earlier in the week due to equipment failure caused by rain. They had no idea when it would reopen. It ended up being closed the entire week.I had dozens of options, but chose this one because the listing said the property had a pool. I even relayed our desire to swim in my introduction email. Iâd read a previous guestâs entry saying the pool seemed old and itâs now clear that is true. None of the other pools in the area were closed. In a location where sharks are frequently seen, (everyone had to leave the water on our first day because the guard saw two sharks 10 yards from shore), temperatures routinely reach over 90, and high tide usually swallows the beach by midafternoonâa pool is essential.Ideally we would have been able to cancel or at least receive a partial refund, but neither option was extended. I feel like I was duped and wish weâd opted for a hotel instead.Additionally, as another guest observed, this property while nicely decorated, smells like urine. We tried to use the patios and ran into lots of mosquitoes. The beach equipment is a nice thought, but most of it is broken. On the plus side, the unit is only a seven minute walk to the beach.
Great location and calm neighborhood- good for families
Overall this is a great condo with a great location minutes away from the beach, in a quiet neighborhood so ideal for families. Close to restaurants, grocery stores etc. However, the air flow in the primary bedroom is really low especially at night which we didnât love. And the pool is a little outdated and may be in need of a clean/update, one of the bedroom closet doors is broken which gave us a little scare when our daughter tried to open it. Other than those issues, great stay.
The first impression I got was how immaculately clean this VRBO was. As a nurse, this is so important to me. From top to bottom, even the floors felt like home they were so clean. The beds were comfy to help us get a good nightâs sleep for all the fun we had at the beach. The set up for our dog was perfect, complete with a cage and dog food and water bowls and his own little space. All of the appliances were clean (and most seemed new!) and easy to use. We like to prepare most of our meals at home to eat healthier and we had everything we needed. We had a blast playing Hilton Head-opoly- one of the many games provided -for some family fun to wait out rain/storms. The beach cart really came in handy getting our things to and from the beach. We had plenty of towels and wash clothes provided and they even had little toiletry sachet bags with soap, lotion, etc. It was clean.It was comfy.It felt like home away from home. Lots of nice things were included - paper towels, dish washer pods, etc. You could tell the owners put a lot of care and attention into making it nice. The only picture I have is playing the board game but all of the advertised pictures accurately depict the VRBO. We really loved this place and hope to use it again in the future. 5-stars! Thank you to Pam and Paul!
Unit was very clean, well equipped and only a 5 minute walk to the beach. The neighborhood is dog friendly. Very easy check in and check out process. Pam and Paul were excellent hosts and answered all questions fast and efficiently. We are glad we chose this property.
Good location, a few minutes walk from the beach. The condo is clean, and it has all that you need. Pam is quick to respond and she was helpful when we needed her. We had a very nice time there and we would stay at this condo again. Thanks Pam, for the last minute request!
Everything was great, the property was clean and in great working order. You can't beat the location, just minutes from the beach. Would definitely stay again.
This was the perfect condo for our stay. We were so close to the beach and the walk there was on a tree covered sidewalk. The entrance to the beach was one of the best I have seen and less crowded than other areas. I loved having some outdoor spaces and everything in the condo was lovely!
We have stayed in the Stones Throw complex before. The location is great, close to the beach and dog friendly. This condo is very nice, well equipped and clean. Very enjoyable stay!
This condo is in a great location close to the beach. If youâre looking for a short trip with a dog friendly condo this is the place. Itâs a bit small for more than 2-4 people to stay comfortably, especially sharing the one shower, and the door to that bathroom doesnât latch.
We had a wonderful time.. The townhome was clean, very well stocked with anything that you could possibly need⊠Location is great⊠easy walk to beach and close to all shops and restaurants.. Loved that I was ableTo bring our little dog with us.. Definitely look forward to visiting again..
The unit is in a good location a short walk to the beach. Pet friendly which we needed for our two small dogs. We felt the unit could use some updates. The photos do not depict how dark it is inside either. Windows do not provide much light. The condo could have been better stocked as well. No ironing board and iron. An ancient wall mounted hair dryer. Haven't seen one of those in 30 years. Just tuck one in a drawer for guests to use--one that has a little power. Finally, the outdoor area could have been better maintained. Leaves and debris were on the patios.
We really enjoyed our stay. Property owners were very responsive when we had a brief internet outage due to their internet provider. Great communication preparing us for our stay. My wife and I enjoyed walking to and on the beach and we discovered a nice loop walk through Port Royal (about 2.8 miles) which we took every morning. Thanks so much!
We had a great stay! The condo was perfect and exactly as advertised. It was a very short walk to the beach and all of the bike paths were awesome!. We couldnât have picked a better place for a short get away.
The condo was just a described in the listing. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for meal prep. Furniture and beds were comfortable. Pam was extremely responsive to a couple of issues that were no fault of hers. Having a kennel already in the condo was extremely helpful. Walk to the beach was an easy 10 minute walk. Beach chairs, umbrellas and wagon could use replacing. We did not bring ours and ended up having to buy a couple of chairs. Overall nice condo and enjoyable stay.
Overall, enjoyed the stay w/ a few minor hiccups. Needed to contact the owner for the Welcome Packet since it was not sent when stated it would be. Packet was sent via email shortly after contacting them.
We were arriving 30 mins- 1 hour early. Asked if able to enter villa early, said "yes". However, upon arrival not able to get in. Once owner was contacted, was able to get in (10 mins prior to actual check-in time). Folly Field Beach area was a nice area to walk dog in the morning and evening. Needed to walk to other villa areas for dog to relieve herself, due to no grass near this villa. Not a big deal. Washing machine was on the brink and was not informed. (The machine could still be used, but needed to manually change cycles.) Only found out after trying to use the washing machine and needing to contact owner (said previous tenant overloaded it). Owner said not able to be fixed until after we left. No beach towels. Again owner had to be contacted. Beach towels were dropped off the day after we arrived. If you plan to do lots of cooking, just know there is minimal counter space. This did not bother us. If you like to read books while on the beach and have read all of your own, there were a few books in the living room cabinet with the games. Pool area was nice. During our stay, there were always pool chairs available when we went to the pool after spending time at the beach.
