The condo is a quick 8 minute walk to the beach. Everything inside is very clean. The furniture, kitchen appliances, linens, etc. were in like new conditions. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, a few spices, oils, keruig and old school coffee pots with filters. The main bedroom mattress is comfortable. Beach towels and inflatables were available as well as games and books. We met the owners upstairs and next door; both were very friendly. Jo is responsive, friendly and communicates well. The only downside was you can hear every step upstairs and the condo does slope a bit. These are completely out of Jo's control and just something to be aware of. If you want a clean and well furnished unit to rent this place is it.
Wonderful condo. The best I have stayed at of all the years at Shipyard/Beachwalk. Wonderful host.
Wonderful condo. Best I have stayed at in Beachwalk. Host was wonderful also. I highly recommend this condo in Beachwalk.Will definitely book this property again in the future.
The property is clean and comfortable. I enjoyed coffee on the wonderful deck outside each morning. Comfortable beds and recliners. Conveniently close to the beach (their 8 minute walk estimate is accurate!). Being able to use their chairs and beach locker was a plus! We will definitely be coming back.
Condo was very clean, nicely decorated, and close to the beach. The only suggestion is that it would be nice to have designated parking spots - at least one per condo.
We enjoyed a relaxing month on Hilton Head in your wonderful villa. It was very clean, spacious and had everything we needed to feel at home. We enjoyed daily long walks on the beach as well as many bike rides throughout Shipyard and beyond. This was a perfect January getaway from the winter weather âup north.â
Jo was fabulous to work with and the unit was exactly as described/pictured. The beach was an easy walk, but even better because Jo was able to get us a beach stamp to park a bit closer - which our young child appreciated. Clean, convenient, and very spacious and comfortable space. We would definitely stay here again.
We had the grandkids, great grandkids, cousins, BFFs, daughters, sons in law, for Mom's 90th. The condo was spacious enough to accommodate us all for dinner every night. The kitchen was very well stocked to make those dinners. It was really wonderful.
This was our first trip to Hilton Head Island, and it was great! The location is really perfect. A short walk or bike ride to the beach or pool. Jo was wonderful to deal with, and very helpful via text! It was very clean and exactly as advertised. The outside area was roomy and comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans. Would definitely stay there again!!
Jo Welch the property manager is one of the best communicators I have dealt with in a long time. Property was more than anticipated, all the amenities you could want or need. The pool is excellent, (wish there was a hot tub), the unit is super clean and spacious. We had 4 adults and 2 young boys and had plenty of room.
This villa is exactly as described. While we are active during our stay, the villa is a perfect place to get a reprieve from the heat, and a comfortable place for family gathering in the evening.
The check-in process was a breeze and the villa was well-prepped for new visitors. Jo, the manager of the unit, is attentive and focused on a great experience for guests.
Some highlights of the villa: The kitchen is well-stocked for preparing meals ( if you want to eat in), the bedrooms are very comfortable, the bathrooms are large and spotless, and the beach locker ( located below the Shipyard beach house) is a huge convenience, and the short walk to the beach is a plus.
This property is very charming and in a quiet location. Jump at the chance to book this wonderful villa.
We could not be happier with our stay at this beautiful villa! Everything was perfect. The villa has everything you need and then some and feels like home. The walk to the beach was easy, especially with 2 young children, the pool was wonderful, and we loved biking around on the bike paths. The owner was very sweet and easy to talk to. We will be back for sure!
The location of the property was only a short walk to the beach. The locker near the beach was a plus so we did not have to carry things back and forth from the beach. Nice deck and beautiful trees. Also close to the private- like pool. Jo was always available for questions- very friendly!
This townhome is a nice place to stay. Plenty of room and has everything you need for your vacation. Owner communicated with us great and was very helpful. Instructions are very clear. The place is decorated beautifully. We didnât use them but beach chairs in a locker are provided. Bathrooms are a good size. Water pressure very good in showers. Nice deck and grill to use. Short walk to the pool. Area was quiet other than two kids above us. lol.
We loved the Shipyard Golf course plus close proximity to many restaurants and other places of interest. Great area to walk or bike. Glad to now know how nice this area is.
This is a really nice villa! It was exactly as pictured and super clean. There was plenty of room for four adults to enjoy their stay. Everything you could possibly need was there. Jo is a great host. She communicated quickly and checked to make sure everything was okay after we arrived. We were able to get in the villa a couple hours early and thatâs always nice. My grandkids were staying in a another villa in Beachwalk and were excited that my villa had toys (games and coloring books) when they came over. We highly recommend this villa to anyone looking to stay in Shipyard.
We had a wonderful ten day stay. We have been coming to HHI and Shipyard for almost thirty years and were looking for a new place to stay. Found it! Everything was thought of. The leaf blower was a bonus to keep the deck clean. Shipyard has moved the beach tag parking requirement up to mid April, but if parking wasn't available the walk is manageable. The beach locker is definitely an asset for that reason. Beds comfortable, linens and towels were nice. You could hear neighbors walking around above us, but that is expected with units above. The unit has been updated and decorated all beachy theme, loved it. Communication was amazing.
This property was absolutely wonderful and was exactly as stated in the listing. Everything you could possibly want or need for your stay in Hilton Head was included in this villa. The property was sparkling clean, was very well stocked with all the essentials (and more!) and was a short walk or bike ride to the beach.. Communications with Jo were second to none - she is a host extraordinaire! Seamless check in made for a very nice welcome. We liked this villa so much we booked for next year while we were there. This is a âwalk in and you are homeâ villa. Jo was so good at being a host she even ordered perfect weather during our entire stay!
My family and I just came back from HHI. We stayed in Beachwalk last year at a different villa and this villa was so much nicer and cleaner. From the moment I walked through the door I could tell it was clean just from the smell of it. My villa last year smelled of mildew. Jo has thought of everything. The villa was well stocked with everything you could want and then some. All of the rooms were very nicely decorated with comfortable furniture. The villa is in a great location. 2 minute walk to the pool and 8-10 minute walk to the beach. We will be booking here again for next year.
After spending a stupid amount of time reading reviews on VBRO I finally settled on this Shipyard Condo. Those hours paid off! Beautiful location, closest housing to the beach in Shipyard. Wildlife there is an added bonus.
Condo is clean, updated, has two large bathrooms, excellent kitchen loaded with whatever you need. Beach locker with chairs and boogie boards at Shipyard Beach House made it all the better without schlepping your chairs etc. all over the place.
Check in and check out flawless. If you have never been to Hilton Head the beach is clean, safe and family friendly.
First, I want to say the host is amazing. Jo was communicative and a pleasure to work with. That said, the villa did not disappoint. It was well kept, cozy, and just a fabulous home away from home. It has everything you'd expect and then some. Five stars for sure.
The only thing I'd say was a "hmm" not even a disappointment was - we thought the pool was within view of the villa (i.e. in the back yard) based on some of the pictures. It's right around the corner and not far but that was something we were like...did we remember the pictures wrong.
However, it's not a big deal at all and I'm only saying it because I probably wouldn't believe me if I read this review and all I had to say was glowing and warm recommendations. :)
We'll be back for certain! Thank you Jo!
We have stayed at many properties in 20 plus years visiting Hilton Head Island and Beachwalk #176 is one of the best managed and appointed places we've ever stayed. The follow-through on every detail from Jo was well above my expectations and that makes a difference. The unit itself is extremely clean and newly refinished. The carpet in the bedrooms was older, but very clean. I think everything else in the unit was re-done recently. The unit has everything you might want and more (ie. large coffee maker, small coffee maker and a single unit keurig). The furniture was all comfortable and the master bed was as well. The unit is on key code lock which is really nice because you don't have to keep track of a key. The internet worked great during our trip and we connected all our devices to it. I can't even remember all the other small touches (fans, games, kid's pack and play, bike helmets), but they make a difference as well. Beachwalk #176 is about 2000 steps from the beach according to my Fitbit and it's a nice paved path for walking or biking with no roads to cross. Tennis at Van Der Meer is even closer than the beach. The Sonesta resort has a nice bar with a happy hour if you want to walk there as well. Shipyard has a 27 hole golf course located close by and the bike trails in Shipyard are only 2nd to Sea Pines on the entire island. In short, it was a pleasure to stay with someone who really cares about your vacation, so we will return to Beachwalk #176. Hopefully, it will be soon.
The owner, Ruby, lives in a rural area of Ohio (Go Bucks!). She and her family own and operate a grain farm. Time away from the farm includes travel and Ruby has found the warmth of Hilton Head inviting. She's opening her home on the island so others can enjoy their time away. Ruby's daughter Marilyn "Jo "will be assisting you with your reservation. Jo will communicate and offer the best hospitality with a quick response time! Jo will do her best to help ensure you have a very comfortable stay in the villa. You will love our home away from home and the beautiful island!
We take pride in our family vacation home! We love Hilton Head Island and find Shipyard as the best spot on the island. It has wonderful bike trails and is close to everything on the island! You will not be disappointed, we welcome our guests and are happy to help assure we meet and go beyond your expectations!
We are in a quiet friendly gated community with just an 8 minute stroll to the Shipyard Beach and only a three minute walk to the Beachwalk pool. We provide 4 beach towels, beach toys, and a beach locker. How convenient, no need to lug chairs or toys to the beach! The villa is managed by the owner's daughter. You will receive the best hospitality with a quick response time. Our family takes great pride in making sure you will be as comfortable in our villa as your own home. It's just waiting for you and your family!
