It was awesome to be back on HHI after too many years away! We have family who owned villa in Shipyard in early 2000âs and became very familiar with Evian and the whole Coligny area. Now that our children are grown we appreciated hearing their memories of the pool, the beach at Sonesta and âCharlie the alligatorâ lurking in the pond on the golf course behind villa watching us fish there! It was great to be with family celebrating Americaâs 248th birthday with legendary Gregg Russell and all at Sea Pines
Overall, the condo was wonderful and comfortable and met our needs. There's 5 beach chairs in the front closet that can be used. Pool is 5 minute walking distance away. Shipyard is a nice resort and we have always enjoyed staying there with great walking trails and a safe environment.
However, the main bath ceiling has black mold on it and needs to be addressed. Also, the outside patio furniture is very weathered and looks dirty; It should be considered to be replaced. The inside furniture was fine and comfortable. Cooked breakfast and lunches in the condo and plenty of kitchen supplies. (utensils, cookware, plates, glasses, etc).
In using the wash machine, recommend using NORMAL setting as Permanent Press has issues in RINSE mode.
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The description of the condo is spot on. We liked that it was close to Caligney as well. The only thing I would change is the explanation where Shipyardâs beach was. We needed to ask security if there was a beach in the plantation & where it was located. The first day we were there we walked all the way down to the public beach.
This is a very nice little home located in the heart of the Island and very close to everything. The pictures don't do justice to the home, which we felt was much nicer and brighter. There are some older parts (dishwasher, kitchen appliances, etc) but functional. Safe and clean. We were very pleased with our stay.
The Villa is fabulous and I highlyrecommendit. It has all the amenities of home. Convenient location very centralized and close to the beach and the pool. Highly recommend this property. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Everything we needed but I thought the second bedroom was an actual room but it was a loft so not a lot of privacy when I had to get up and work each morning.
Overall we enjoyed our trip but surprised to find that this condo doesn't equipped with hair-dyers. Almost all hotels and vacation home rentals I've been to have at least one hair-dryer. So during the vacation, I had to run around to find a hair dryer which is ridiculous. Other things they could kindly provide to guests are: salt and pepper, dish detergents.
