The property is located close to the beach, general store, and local shops. Our family is already planning on staying again at the same property! We had a wonderful time!
Property was perfect for our family. Location was great - enjoyed the short walk to beach and general store. Property was as advertised, host was communicative and friendly. Would stay here again.
My wife and our two dogs had a wonderful week in Hilton Head. Everything was very clean when we arrived and Gene the owner texted to make sure everything was as we expected which was a nice touch. The house was less than a 5 minute walk to the beach and was absolutely wonderful and we spent a lot of time out at the beach. The kitchen had everything you would need and the master bedroom was spacious and the bed was quite comfortable as were the couches in the living room.
Property was perfect for my husband, me, and our dog. Close walk to the beach and general store. Beautiful area and nice community with walking/biking paths. Great location on the Island, easy travel to restaurants and entertainment. Owner, Gene, was pleasant to work with, very accommodating. Would stay there again.
Great location in Palmetto Dunes within easy walking distance of the beach. Lots to do nearby. Condo was very clean and well appointed with good WiFi. Owner was very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend this Hilton Head condo!
Awesome location, close to tennis, pool and beach. Condo was clean and adequately supplied. Owner was very helpful and easy to work with, very accommodating and communication was great. He made sure we had everything we needed to
enjoy our first time on the island.
Location is perfect for dog owners. Beach is a few minutes away on foot. Dog park in Chaplin Park at Singleton Beach Road is a few minutes drive and is a good place to meet locals. Home is clean and bright. Ocean Cove is a lovely subdivision. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Property was as advertised. Our family of 4 and a pup had plenty of room and enjoyed the amenities of the condo. The location of this villa is a huge benefit as it’s a short walk to the beach, the pickleball center and the general store. Gene was a pleasure to communicate with, and you can tell he truly cares about providing his guests with the best experience while at his condo. I highly recommend staying at this villa.
We have been coming to Hilton Head for quite a few years. The first time we came we stayed in the ocean cove club. Over the years we have tried different locations inside Palmetto dunes and we believe that this is by far the best location. Close to the beach, bike rentals, tennis complex and general store. Away from the public beach access and the busy high rise area. The area is fantastic for bike rides and everyone is so friendly. We highly recommend the villa it was super clean and well stocked and will be returning over the next years to come. Thanks Gene for all the communication it made the process seamless.
Our host was great! The location to the beach, and the first floor entry attracted us to rent the villa. The furniture was very nice and comfortable and there is plenty of storage space for clothes, etc. We hope to return!
The villa is perfectly located near beach, pool, restaurant and plantation attractions. We had a great time exploring the island and spending the days and most nights at the beach.
Owner was amazingly accommodating. Property is very comfortable and newly renovated. Property is within walking distance, and easily accessible. Would definitely stay there again
Our vacation stayat Ocean Cove was excellent. After securing our reservation, our family was greeted by the owner and he made sure all of our questions were answered. The location was 3 minutes from the beach. The unit housed our four family members with extra room. The bathrooms, kitchen and floors have been updated and look really nice. We had a great stay and hope to reserve it again if it’s open.
We loved The Ocean Cove Villa. The 3 minutes walk to the beach is no exaggeration. If you bring a pet, there is plenty of room to take your little best friend on the best walks. The place was super clean/tidy when we arrived. We had no complaints. There is plenty of cooking utensils for those who do not prefer to eat out every night. The host was super respectful and assisted anytime with whatever we needed. There is plenty of room for people to have their own space. Overall an amazing trip. We will definitely be returning back next year.
This condo provides us with a great combination of good location and a nice setup for two couples or a family.
A short, pleasant walk to the beach, a general store and several restaurant. A perfect bicycling location and being in the middle of the island a convenient base for visiting various points of interest.
A clean and quiet location.
Many thanks for a wonderful stay at your home. We loved everything about your place. The décor, location and amenities were all great. The host was so helpful and communicative. We can’t recommend this location more highly and can’t wait to come back again.
this was a perfect place for my husband snd mom and I and our dogs. Absolutely perfect. Proximity to the beach, the coziness of the place, the quietness…everything. We’d definitely be back!
