8.0 / 10.0
The resort was very nice, our view wonderful, and we had close access to Coligny Circle. Our only negative would be the landscapers blowing debri every day - some mornings at 7am. Sleep-ins, while on vacation, did not happen.

Four of stayed in this unit. It was very spacious, and the rooms/suites set up was very nice. The location was great located right across from Coligney shops and restaurants.
Will definitely stay here again.
10.0 / 10.0
Loved this unit, exceptionally clean. Some of the kitchen cabinets are badly worn. But access to beach bar, ocean and walkability to restaurants, two breakfast bakeries, and Piggly Wiggly can’t be beat. The heat pump to the pool broke down, unfortunately, because it was a bit cool in early March.
10.0 / 10.0
The location can't be beat - directly across from Coligny plaza and right on the beach. If you go in February or early March, there's some maintenance going on the property in the lagoon pools although there wasn't any bothersome noise. Check the status of the swimming pools as they were both marked closed while we were there (they looked clean and swimmable to me). Pool Bar Jims was open from 11-6 which was a nice surprise. The unit was VERY clean and although the kitchen cabinets showed their age, the kitchen was very well stocked with utensils, pots, pans, etc. The unit setup was awesome for having separated sleeping/bathroom areas. Would definitely stay there again.

This is a great condo! We had a wonderful time here! The view from the balcony is fantastic (other than the empty koi ponds - they must have been doing maintenance). Everything was clean and it met our needs very well. It could use some maintenance. Some minor things, like dings in the wall & chips in the floor tile. Others a little more urgent, like the sliding door to the balcony that was almost impossible to open (we finally gave up) and the finish on many of the kitchen cupboards & drawers is lifting away. I mentioned these to the management company, so hopefully those will be fixed soon. Some good and bad with the management company. They didn't return our phone call when we were having a difficult time in the dark when we arrived, but the next day when we had tv issues, they got right on it. Overall, it was a great stay and I would definitely stay there again.
10.0 / 10.0
Property was clean and close to everything, we were able to walk almost everywhere. Some of the TV remotes were not working even after we changed the batteries.
8.0 / 10.0
Great view in a great complex. Both the property and the room were very clean. Only things keeping it from a 5 star were minor details. The living room TV had a roku but it didn't work, the sliding door to the living room balcony was a little difficult to operate. All of the beds were soft enough but they were all misshapen. It really needs new mattresses throughout the condo. I would still recommend this to anyone and will attempt to stay here again, just hope the beds get fixed.

Had a great time. Only issue was that we had a minor issue with coffee maker. Nice place!
10.0 / 10.0
This location was arguably one of the best spots of any trip we’ve taken. The beach access, simple parking, pools, Jim’s pool bar, Coligny Plaza, all so close! I would absolutely stay here again. The only thing I’d say could be improved would be the master bed mattress is worn out and has a huge hump in the middle with indentations where it’s been worn. It’s comfortable and soft but lop sided. I’d definitely stay here again even with the lumpy bed!
8.0 / 10.0
Overall, the condo and facilities were good. However, some minor maintenance items are evident. We had an extremely hot week and the main area HVAC unit did all it could to maintain 76 degrees. Comfortable, but not cool. The master suite unit effectively maintained 70-72 degrees. Patio screen doors were both compromised, but because it was so hot we couldn’t leave the doors open, so it didn’t impact us. The unit is nicely appointed and you can cook if you want to with no trouble. The property itself is showing its age. Pool bar Jim’s is awesome and is a real valuable asset to have on the property. The location provides you with several serviceable restaurants in walking distance. If you want top notch cuisine, be prepared to drive. Overall, a good value for the money and we would stay again.

Perfect Vacation
Our family had an amazing time at Sea Crest. We are a family of four with two teenage boys and we all had a great vacation. The property is beautiful inside and out! We loved playing on the beach and riding our bikes all around Hilton Head Island. It really was a perfect get away for our family.
10.0 / 10.0
It was great
It's a great location near Coligny Beach shopping plaza, super close to the beach, has a couple nice pools on campus and the beds were super comfy. It was a really great experience.
8.0 / 10.0
Great location!
We love this area of Hilton Head! Everything is very convenient & easy to get to! Our condo unit was decent but smelled very musty when we came in- not sure if due to old previously wet carpet in the bedrooms or something else. The kitchen & amenities were very nice but the bedrooms could use some updating (esp new carpet).
8.0 / 10.0
Property just as described / no surprises
Our only reason for not giving a 5 star rating was the paper thin toilet paper!

Super stay at Seacrest
Great location for all things- beach, restaurants, shopping, biking. The unit was larger than many 2 bedroom condos on beach. It was so comfortable including the bed. Couldn’t have a more gorgeous view given the lagoon and ocean view. We went between Spring Break and summer busy seasons so the amount of people was just right for us. I’m not sure I could take the crowds if busy season. I would re-rent this exact place!

Sea Crest is a perfect location. It has a beautiful view, and everything from the pools, walkway to the beach, and shopping/restaurants just across the street! We love it here!

Lovely view of the ocean
The condo was very comfortable, nicely appointed and very conveniently located to food and shopping. Mattress was very comfortable. We had considerable miscommunication by e-mail trying to get the door code to get in, but once we got a phone number and called, we received very kind and helpful service. There was no indication on the web site that the in-door pool and fitness center were closed due to Covid, but they were very kind in sending someone to install a DVD unit to help with some entertainment during a week of rain.

Dirty and Needs Update
We always stay at North Forest Beach when we come to Hilton on our yearly visit. This year we booked late, due to COVID. We had a selection of about 4 condos to choose from and decided on this one because of the view. The view was wonderful, and we had everything we needed. That said, the property was not clean. The outlets all over the condo were grubby and grimy. The bathroom showers had soap scum that we could not scrub off. The showers were not clean either - we had to call housekeeping to come clean them again. There was food splattered behind the stove area. Updates are also needed. The bathrooms I would recommend updating completely. The floorboards were broken or missing under the sink, the carpet in the bedrooms was grubby and needs replacing. The entire condo needs a good coat of paint. We will not stay at this condo again. It was not the standard we are used to at Hilton. All three of my sisters and my Mom stayed in same building and had wonderful condos. This, by comparison, was a dud.

Needs some updating
Mattresses need updating - they were uncomfortable. TV in guest bedroom worked sporadically. If I return to SeaCrest, it will be to the unit I rented in 2018.

Great location, property as advertised
Great location - walking / biking distance to everything. We arrived after dark and it was hard to figure out where to enter the parking deck or which building was ours. Some instructions relative to this would be helpful for newcomers to these condos.

September get away
Great location right across the street from Coligny plaza. Shops, restaurants and a Piggly Wiggly. Sea Crest is a great place. Green space with fountains, 2 pools and the best pool bar. Great views of the ocean from both balconies. The condo has a great layout and great view.

Evacuation after 1 1/2 days
We didn’t even get to settled in and had to leave. We flew in with a 7 month old and 3 years old on Saturday and then on Sunday was told to evacuate. No help was offered. We couldn’t get flights. Tried to communicate 3 or 4 times and got no help. Feel like they only care about their money. Asked if we could have another week at a reduced rate for our trouble and no communication at all. Received 3 or 4 emails telling us to checkout; and we had been home for days. No contact from owners either. Hard to rate a property when you didn’t even get to use it...furniture did have stains and carpet was looking old. Could use some updates. Loud music on Saturday night too. Hot tub was shut down early on Saturday also. This could have been because of the storm. Whole experience kept going down hill.

Needs a refresh
Unfortunately, the mattresses, comforters and carpet were in poor Condition and quite old. Carpets were dirty. A nice condo that needs a refresh.

As Promised - but room for improvement
The unit was very nice, clean and matched the photos and description exactly. Too cold to swim in the ocean this time of year but the pool was pretty good - and the grounds are well-maintained. The twin beds could use an upgrade - they felt a little like sleeping on an air mattress. Also, the check-in/check-out could have been smoother. We never got a code to unlock the unit, but were fortunate to run into the facility manager (after business hours) who helped us gain access. Also, on our final day, our door code expired before 11am so I nearly got locked out as I was loading up the car.

Very nice property
Overall we had no issues with the property - we really enjoyed it there. When we arrived, there was a bag of dirty laundry, and no beach towels. I did call and the next day towels were delivered. The grounds are lovely and great beach. I think the fitness center could use an upgrade. The resistance pool didn't work, as well as one of the elliptical machines. Would definitely recommend this place. The view is great too!
