Hilton Head Island Escape - Walk to Beach!

Trouble getting into the unit because check in code not quite right. We were able to speak w owner and face time and got correct codeClean comfortable but kitchen very bare bones-bring your own coffee podsEasy location for all things

Great layout and great location. Host was very helpful with correct situation

The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The unit was quite dark, and there was really nowhere to sit with natural light coming in. The living room furniture was very tired and could stand to be replaced. No ceiling fan in the bedroom. The bathroom shower curtains were filthy with mildew and mold on the bottom of the curtain. The kitchen was not set up for any type of cooking. There was one wine glass. The very old lounge chairs outside on the patio were broken. The soap that was supposed to be supplied was empty in both of the bathrooms. The extra blankets and linens were just thrown in a wrinkled mess in the closet. It made me question whether or not they were even clean. On a good note the location of the unit was fantastic. We were able to walk to almost everything we wanted to do and it did serve our purpose for the short time we were there. The price point was very reasonable however, the damage fee that was mandatory maybe they should use that money to replace shower curtains and buy a few glassware so that people can have a beverage in the unit.

I'm a frequent traveller, and I often stay in rental homes instead of hotels. The good things about this listing is that the location is good (walk to the beach) and it was clean. I learned a lot from this stay. Most of the homes I've visited offer some small (but meaningful) perks to make guests feel welcome. (For example, the place I stayed just after this had coffee, tea, creamer, sugar, olive oil, a set of every type of phone charger next to the bed, a little basket of toiletries in case you forget something.) I can't express how important these details are. Other places, including this one, offer what's listed. Now I know. I take responsibility for expecting too much. I expect to be able to make coffee on the first morning I'm there. But, there were no coffee filters. Even though I brought my own coffee, I had no way to make it. I asked, and was told that they are not provided. Again, they are not listed and I should not have expected them. OK, so then every guest who uses the coffee maker must buy a package. Those usually contain hundreds of filters. And then they must be removed from the unit every time? I'm so confused. Since we're near the beach, I assumed there would be beach chairs and maybe even an umbrella to borrow. Again, my mistake. I asked to leave after the first night, but there would have been zero refund, so I decided to stay. Overall, the place was depressing and seemed neglected. I would not stay there again.
