Clean, GREAT LOCATION, well appointed vacation rental.
We were traveling as a family, twin 15 year olds... Space is a premium when traveling with teens. We had it in spades here. Very close to grocery stores, great location within the Palmetto Dunes community, no lie 400 yds to the beach.
The bikes they provided hit the spot. Can't say enough good things about our experience.

We loved this property! It fit our family’s needs perfectly. Very closer/easy walk to the beach, General Store and golf. We chose this because we needed to bring our “fur babies” and we would definitely choose it again. Very nicely equipped, updated and comfortable! The property manager was very accessible and helpful.

This condo checked all of our criteria for a great vacation house. From its close proximity to the beach club, pickleball center and pool, this location was great. We thoroughly enjoyed the lagoon dock and had frequent visits from snaggle toothed friends. We are already working on a return visit.

Four of us went to HHI for a friend's wedding and stayed at this condo in Ocean Cove. What a beautiful place in a great location, Palmetto Dunes, on the island. Really enjoyed the outside patio and deck; had most meals and evening drinks there. Inside the condo was roomy and nicely furnished. Would definitely stay there again!

Property was newly remodeled with modern bathrooms and kitchen. Very clean....I usually have to spend a day cleaning but I did not clean before we "moved in".
Lots of room and all baths are ensuite, which is great when hosting others.
only about 3 minute walk to beach. We have been coming to Palmetto Dunes for years and never stayed in Ocean Cove but location is excellent...very close to Dunes House.
Available bikes worked fine, which was a real bonus!
Dog friendly and includes a couple gates and dog bowls, though we brought our own.
We had a few minor issues (propane tank couldn't be turned on) and property manager was very responsive....even cleaned the grill while he was there.
Great property which we would recommend to others.

This villa was just what we needed to take care of our family of 7. It is such a beautiful setting in Palmetto Dunes, right on the lagoon. We saw water birds and an alligator! The beds were very comfortable, kitchen pretty well stocked, nice living and dining area. Only a couple of blocks (5 min walk) to the beach access. Wonderful paths for walking and biking! I would definitely rent this unit again!

We had an all too brief stay. The property was great and just as shown online. It was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The dock overlooking the lagoon was the selling point for us and didn’t disappoint!

House was awesome. Perfect for our two families of 4 to stay. The place was clean. There was a ton to do while staying in this area. The villa was just steps from the pool and it was nice and shaded for when we had too much sun from the beach. The beach toys, beach tent and bikes were an added bonus while there.

We had three couples stay here over a long weekend and we had a great time. Location and neighborhood are lovely and the beach was just a short walk away.

The condo was well equipped for family fun. Beach toys, chairs,sun cover and towels. The condo slept the eight of us comfortably. Nice sized BBQ Grill. However it was lacking basic condiments (salt, pepper, coffee and sugar). We thought there would be some other staples available such as oil, vinegar, other herbs and spices. A sponge and more kitchen towels would be great.

We all said that this villa was one of the best places we have stayed while visiting Hilton Head. We loved being right on the canal and seeing wildlife. We were a quick walk to the beach and to the general store. The villa was immaculate, beautifully decorated, the perfect size, and had everything we needed. We will definitely be back!

This house was a great stay, and super close to the beach! It could have been cleaned a little better, I feel like they took a lot of short cuts in cleaning. But overall it was a nice place to stay!

It was as if the whole unit had been remodeled and we were the first to stay in it, it was that nice! Also loved having a balcony for every bedroom. Close to the pool and walking distance to the beach and general store. Will stay here again!

We loved the condo and it’s location. It was quiet and the wildlife lagoon side was special. The proximity to the beach was great. Only criticism is the linens supplied. We only used one King bed and the sheets were very poor quality. I washed them each week and another set would have been helpful. The towels were flimsy and not very absorbent. Other than that we were delighted.

We loved everything! A short walk to an amazing beach. On a beautiful canal where we could sit and watch nature including, birds: egrets, herons, osprey , anhinga, cormorants . Plus deer and alligators. Three bed rooms and baths to accommodate everyone! My 90 year old mother stayed with us, the main floor bedroom was perfect for her and she walked to the beach everyday! We are looking forward to our return trip next year. It booked fast so we had to be flexible on our dates for next year but we found it perfect for our needs.

Property was ideal for our family; very clean and updated. Communication with Host, Tom, was easy; he was very responsive. Having high chair, pack and play, and baby gate provided was definitely a plus. Loved the balconies off each bedroom. Short bike ride or walk to beach, Alexander’s restaurant, and courts. Beautiful weather was A Bonus. We plan to go back.
