We had a great stay at Gloucester for our spring break. The house was as described and very clean. We really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Having accessibility to the bikes was very convenient. We loved the development and the accessibility to the beach. Our only complaint was the communication with the rental company. They never mailed us our parking passes for our stay and the guard at the Shipyard was a bit frustrated with us when we arrived. He sent us to the rental company. Once arriving at the rental company the woman at the front desk seemed very confused as to why we were there. Other than that we had a wonderful stay and would stay again.
We absolutely lived this home. Great layout, lots of space, well stocked kitchen and wonderful neighborhood! We would definitely rent this home again in the future!
We loved the house, the location and particularly enjoyed the hot tub even in cold weather. The kitchen is great and the beds super comfortable. The back yard and pool deck are really pretty but could look so much nicer with some upgraded furniture!
52 Gloucester is a great home with ample room, and amenities. The private pool is a great feature during hot summer days. This home has everything for a couple or a large family. Will definitely want to return.
This is our second year at 52 Gloucester. The size, comfort, location, cleanliness of home, pool and ease of reservation and check in and out process will bring us back next year. Our three generation group gave it a unanimous thumbs- up. We are 32 year veterans of family vacations on Hilton Head and we have stayed at least once in most areas. 52 Gloucester is among the best.
We own a villa in another Shipyard complex but we needed more space for a family wedding. The house was spacious, clean, and everything that was advertised. The pool area was amazing and made it difficult to venture away from the property. This property surpassed all expectations!
The house and setting nestled in the beautiful Shipyard Oaks with Spanish Moss dangling down were the one of many highlights of this gated community. There are ample paved trails for biking or strolling. The house and pool area are just perfect for kicking back and relaxing. The kitchen has plenty of provisioning that makes cooking a breeze. Loved how clean the house and community was. The only downside was deciding if we wanted to go out for dinner or stay in!!
House was roomy enough for six of us. Kitchen was fairly well supplied. Seating in living room needs updating and more seating added. Only drawback is that it is managed by a company (I am a VRBO owner and manage my own property, I understand this is not always feasible), and the supplies provided (other than sheets and towels) for a two week stay are so minimal they might as well not provide anything!
In addition to all of the usual things (well-equipped kitchen with super modern appliances, great location, awesome pool, comfy beds, etc.), I'll mention a few of the other things that made this house so special:
- ONE tiny half-step at the front door. Easy to bring in groceries and luggage. And about 2 steps from the driveway.
- Speaking of the driveway, the entire driveway and walkways were brand new concrete. Not worn out uneven pavers or busted up asphalt.
- Plenty of space for parking cars.
- A pool that was all one depth that makes it super easy for all.
- excellent pressure for the showers (even the outside one with both hot and cold water).
- modern spa and very cool pool lights that could change colors or rotate colors.
- HVAC system that kept that house COLD with zero fluctuations.
- modern pool chaise lounge chairs, and a grill that was excellent and not worn out with burners that don't work like some places.
To summarize, just a great house that presses all of the right buttons!
We'll be back!
We LOVED our stay. The house was perfect and had absolutely everything we needed. The pool was fantastic, and the pool lights and landscape lighting were so pretty; made swimming in the evenings a fun part of the trip. We debated on heating the spa since it was going to be warm, but are glad we did. We really enjoyed it in the evenings. The screened porch was a delight to have, we spent late nights/early mornings playing games and working puzzles. The extra amenities were so well thought out. Having bikes to enjoy riding around the trails that take you everywhere was appreciated as well as having some extras to take to the beach. We did use the bikes to get to the beach. It is walkable, takes some time though, so we mostly drove or rode bikes to the beach. Parking at beach is limited so going earlier in the morning or just after lunch made parking easier. No trouble though when we couldnât find parking. We just drove and dropped off people/beach stuff and two of us took the car back to the house and then enjoyed a bike ride back to the beach. The beach thatâs accessed from Shipyard is very nice with a great walkway with showers and restrooms, and there was a lifeguard. The location of the house to access grocery stores, shopping, and restaurants was great, close to everything. Also enjoyed some visitors at the house including deer, red shoulder hawks and a few golfers that went a little right of the course. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for sharing it.
This is our second time renting this house for our annual Special Olympics North American tennis/pickleball tournaments.
The house generously accommodates all of our athletes that travel, is clean, allows us to be able to cook meals instead of eat out and is our favorite house we have stayed in. The check in process is easy, the company is quick to respond and is always helpful.
We look forward to more stays at this house.
We had a GREAT time staying at 52 Gloucester. It is nestled in a beautiful neighborhood, close in proximity to lots of different amenities', beautiful home and as is pictured, property management company is local, communicates well, and super helpful. The home is well kept, clean, fresh, and in working order. I would highly recommend this property.
The property was clean, nicer than anticipated, convenient location, quiet area, property management company went the extra mile when we thought we had left a stroller behind. Come and stay! It is wonderful.
This is a great house in a really beautiful area! We loved the pool and the kitchen is really nice. We like to cook on vacation, so that was a bonus : ) You do need to bring ALL of your supplies (even salt and pepper) for the kitchen. The kids loved the pool and the bedrooms were all nice. The bikes were a great extra. Would definitely stay here again!
This home was lovely. Enough space for my family of 6 adults, 2 toddlers and an infant. Close to everything. LOVED the pool, screened in porch and gas grill. I would suggest to drive to the beach early to get a space to park. We also rode bikes to the beach as well . we will definitely stay here again. If I had any negatives, the one bathroom was a little dated but the rest of the house high end everything. Very private as well.
We loved the house as a group. Nice and clean and roomy. We had a few issues during the week. The kitchen looks to have been remodeled and the cooktop was induction but only 1 or 2 pots/pans in kitchen would work with the cooktop. We ended up buying some at a local store. Not something we had planned on.
The swimming pool was nice but not a zero entry as listed. It has steps that arenât consistent. We had a couple injuries with people falling in because of no rails at steps and different steps at opposite sides.
We had 8 adults and a few kids and couple of babies. When we arrived in HHI on Saturday it was early in the day. Check in was scheduled for 4 but we were told in multiple emails that we might be able to check in early. I contacted the property management through text and email around 2pm to ask if it was possible to check in early since we had some young ones that needed naps. I was told it wouldnât be ready until 4 to check in. We ended up in the driveway at 215 and sat there until 4. No one was there and it looked as though the property was ready. Sure would have been nice to let the young ones take a nap.
PM was very responsive when I let them know that the kitchen sink was leaking under the sink. Man was there in 15 minutes.
Overall a decent eeek in HHI and the property was sufficient.
We rented this property to share with another couple, they have two kids under 7 as do we. The layout was perfect, very spacious, never felt like we were on top of each other. The pool/spa was amazing, we were in it every day, even on chilly days thanks to the heater! The house was clean and well equipped, we loved our time here and are already talking about coming back!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. From the moment we walked into the front door, we knew we made the right choice. Although this is a big property, it felt so homey and cozy. Everything you need is right at your fingertips. The bedrooms and bathrooms are roomy. The kitchen was equipped with pots, pans, utensils, again, everything you need. The attention paid to every detail was so much appreciated. Although the pictures here are nice they really don't do the home justice. We travel a lot, and we will add this property to a short list of homes that we will definitely book in the future. Hilton Head is a beautiful place to visit and staying at this property made our stay extra special. As I said, beautiful, peaceful, perfection!!!
The house is gorgeous! Pool was our favorite part! Everything was super clean and well taken care of. The pool glows for a fun night swim and the hot tub was very relaxing! We highly recommend this rental and will absolutely be back!
