The location speaks for itself! Could not be any better!!! However, the air conditioning is still an issue. We did arrive in the middle of a July heat wave but the upstairs bedrooms were truly unbearable. We had multiple fans but they gave little reprieve. Iâd stay here again but not in the summer months.
This condo was perfect for our family. This was my 4th vacation to HHI and this was by far the best location. I had read reviews about it being a lot warmer upstairs than downstairs and did notice it only in the hallway in between bedroom. At night it felt great, even a little chilly at times. So the issue must have been resolved. The location is great if you love shopping and sightseeing. There are multiple restaurants within walking distance and cinnamon bear is nice when you want ice cream or a coffee. The beach behind the condo is great for looking for seashells and the beach is a short trolley ride away. The trolley picks you up right outside the shops. Just steps away from the front door. I will definitely be planning another trip in this location in a few years. It was beyond wonderful!
This is the first time we have stayed here and it is a great location with dedicated parking right next to very busy Harbour Town. You can watch dolphin while sitting on your couch or enjoy the private (to renters only) back yard and beach area. The only reason I didn't provide 5 stars is the air conditioner is not strong enough or big enough to cool upstairs to even close to bottom level. At least 10-15° variation. This was recorded in previous reviews that I had read and was told it was fixed, I can assure you, it has not as of this date. We would LOVE to stay here again for future years, but the A/C will be the deciding factor for me. Other than that, it was wonderful and we enjoyed our stay very much.
We have stayed here twice now. It has become a favorite of ours. The view out back is amazing and being walking distance to everything in harbortown is convenient. We will definitely be back!
Was close to everything - recommend ice cream directly across the home at The Cinnamon Bear shop - they also have awesome peach and blueberry preserves! Great with some croissants and coffee in the morning enjoying the view on the patio, which we did often!!
The representative was very nice and helpful when checking in. The villa was clean and view amazing. Convenient to Harbor Town⊠walking distance. Very relaxing. Everything I hoped it would be.
This property has an amazing view and the location is terrific. And that's were it ends. It needs to be updated, or a least thoroughly cleaned, new paint and updated amenities.
Walked through the front door and was amazed by the views out the sliding doors. We both said "WOW"! Looking at the availability calendar to schedule our return.
The location and view are great! Walk to Restaurants , marina and shops. Sit on the patio and watch all the activities in the Sound .But the unit itself needs updating. The last two years we have been there a total of 9 weeks, so we know, in our opinion what it needs.
Yes, the view is absolutely stunning. If I could have spent the entire trip on the patio this would be fine. But there were many things wrong inside, and after repeated calls to management, issues were ignored. TV in mAster bedroom was broken , somebody came by to try and fix it, but gave up and just left. Blinds in the master bedroom were broken, could not open at all, hence could not really use the balcony in the master, which was filthy anyway. Hard to appreciate a pretty view when you canât open the blinds. Literally no lighting in the 2nd bedroom. Living room sofa needs to be thrown outâŠtoo disgusting to even sit on.
Great location and view but house needs updating and the ac doesnât work.
Location and view are definitely awesome. House has so much potential but ac ruined a good week.
Good:
Location is awesome. Walk to harbourtown and bike to the beach if you want. Would like to be able to park at beach during high season but that is a sea pines issue.
The view and sunsets are awesome. Almost made up for the bad with location and view.
Layout is great and cozy. Patio outside was nice.
Parking is awesome. Have your own working right in front of unit. Definitely convenient.
Bad: ( and itâs major)
The AC doesnât cool the upstairs sleeping area. It had to be 78 degrees up there during our stay. It took Vacasa two days to respond and they brought a portable AC u it and duct taped the vent to the outside sliding door. Maintenance was great but not a great solution as only one room had the ac and it wasnât enough for the upstairs.
Thereâs mold and mildew on all the ac vents downstairs. You can smell the ac the mildew is so bad and it never actually gets to the desired temp. It runs all day
Unit needs some updates. Furniture is old and the walls are dirty and need to be painted.
For the updates please add a tv that has Netflix or some kind of technology. Couch could be updated and itâs dirty.
Overall, we had a nice stay but got almost no sleep. Really would have given this a much higher rating if the ac was working upstairs. We could barely stay at the house most of the time and at night we just wanted to veg out after the beach. Would say that Vacasa and owner could have been more proactive considering there were others that complained of the same issues. I would stay again if some updates were made and the ac was working.
We couldn't be happier with our stay. The location is supreme, the view is breath taking. We could've stayed at the property all day on our vacation and it would have been lovely. There were many discussions made that we will choose our vacation based on availability of this property because we had such a spectacular time looking out at the water.
Absolutely love the location and view, the place itself is less than expected. It does advertising amenities, but with a price you pay it should. The couch and beds need replaced not kid friendly or animals have to buy everything for the kitchen and coffee. Upstairs was hot.
The property location and view are amazing for this property. However, the condition of the condo was in bad need of upgrades and repairs. When we first walked in after check in the first thing we saw was the half bath with a clogged toilet and wet towels all over the floor. When taking a shower in the second bathroom upstairs, it began to rain from the ceiling below getting water all over the dining room and floor. The shower pan quickly filled up with water and took forever to drain. You could clearly see old water damage on that ceiling below so this has been a problem for a while. The dining room table if you sat anything on it and bumped the table, it would knock over glasses and spilled drinks because it was so wobbly and needed tightening. The couch in the living room was covered with old stains, and was extremely dirty to the touch. The walls need repainted throughout. Almost every single wall has scuffs and scrapes all over them which I understand itâs a rental but looks really bad. Very disappointed with the state of the condo but glad it at least had an amazing view for our trip.
This home has an excellent waterfront view of the Calibogue Bay and is in the Harbor Town area.
The blinds in the master bedroom need repair which we reported. It could also use some updating in parts. But the view and location are excellent.
