Passing of my brother
It was a rushed decision because my brother was very sick. I wanted a location that was close to where he lived and of course I needed facility that had cooking aminities. This location was perfect and it provided everything I needed. Susan Schiavon did a fantastic job of taking care of us in a time of need. I can't thank her enough. The only complaint I have is the furniture and floors where not cleaned or dusted. It needed more dish clothes. Not to take away from location and condo because it was nice.

Fantastic condo, but steps to the beach was misleading. Ad states, “steps to the beach”! It was 450 yards or a quarter mile! Had to go to the state park to get to the beach!

Enjoyed the stay. Internet in location was slightly spotty likely due to the island location, but all other aspects were excellent. Nearby pool and walking distance to beach.

My daughter suggested the title of the review because the beach life was amazing! Pelican Place is the perfect place to visit! Terrific location with everything you need. Great beach at Harbor Island plus the fun of bigger waves at Hunting Island thanks to the included pass. This was our second year at this condo and won’t be the last!

close to state park, beaches, turtle nests lots for families!
great location! quick access to beach, I walked out there every morning with my coffee. We had family camping at Hunting island so wanted a place nearby. 5minutes! loved having a park pass included for a day at the state park. One day our family came to hang with us and take a beach break pool hopping. Susan was a great host! answered questions quickly, including letting property know about a broken step leading to beach. It was fixed by the next morning. This was our couldn't believe there were 105 turtle nests on the island! Missed watching any hatch though. first trip to this area but Will definitely be back!

Best friend stay-vacation
My best friend and I rented this condo for the weekend for a beach and pool get away. We enjoy ourselves and relaxed the whole time. The unit is very well decorated and is super clean. I was impressed with how new it seemed. The bed is very comfortable and good for those with back problems (in my opinion). The only problem that we found with the property is the unevenness that we felt in the floor. For an older person with equilibrium problems or walking problems, that floor could cause many walking problems. The floor seems very "hill" and "valley" in some places. My friend and I took turns sleeping on the bed and sleeper sofa. The sofa bed was not comfortable at all. You might want to look into that.

Unit was nice - Property Manager was awful
The booking process and communication leading up to the check-in was great. The unit was very nicely furnished and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. As we were unpacking and getting situated, we found multiple bugs that looked like roaches. When we contacted the property manager, she informed us that they were palmetto bugs and that they were very common in the Carolinas and there was nothing she could do about it. She proceeded to asked me in a very condescending tone, "have you ever stayed in South Carolina before because they are everywhere." I actually have stayed in South Carolina many times and this was the first time I had ever found palmettos in the houses and units I've rented. I have been renting with VRBO for many many years and I have never experienced such a condescending, rude, unhelpful interaction. It was awful. I felt like I was bothering her. We later had issues with the keyless door code -- needless to say I was reluctant to call her -- but I did. And she never called me back. She simply texted me saying code should work...but it didn't. She also said Evolve, the property management company, would be contacting me about the palmetto bug issue and the door code. I never heard from them. Given how I was treated, I will never stay at this unit again.

Great Condo in a Beautiful Place
We loved this condo. It had everything we needed without being cluttered. It was the perfect size for the two of us and was tastefully decorated. The community has 2 pools and one was very close to the condo. The beach was a short walk and we also loved the Hunting Island pass. Harbor Island isn’t a popular tourist destination so this was absolutely the perfect place for this gal who doesn’t like a crowd. The instructions were perfect and we never once needed to contact our host. I highly recommend staying here. It’s truly the perfect place for a quiet and relaxing vacation.

We had an amazing time on Harbor Island. The condo was in the prime location to visit the pool or beach. The condo was super clean and accommodating for our week full of adventure. The owner was super kind and very great at responding during our stay! We will be planning our trip for next year at Harbor and potentially this location or one of her others.

We will definitely be making future reservations here again. Property was clean, beautiful, and all the amenities provided was wonderful. The WI-FI password didn't work, but when you're staying on the beach with family, who needs it?! Will definitely recommend to anyone staying in the Hunting State park area

Stay in a quiet place
Is a nice complex for a relaxed stay. They have a full size bed, very well equipped kitchen. Nice dining and living room areas. Not far from the beach. The beach view is just a bit. Note: there is a second company after VRBO and of course de property manager, in the instructions they ask you practically to clean all dishes and to leave perfectly organized the apartment, I never understood why to do that if we pay a cleaning fee.

The property was very nice, clean and pictures were accurate. The only issue we had was the bed. It wasn't very comfortable. If one person moved, the other person was disturbed. I actually slept on the couch so my husband could get some sleep. The linens were very nice and plentiful. I would consider staying there again.

Harbor Island Review
The Condo was clean and lovely. Beach access was a bit farther than expected. We did not enjoy not being able to lower the thermostat below 73 for the night, which made for an uncomfortable night for us. This would have been fine if it had been made clear in the ad for the condo. Also, the terms of the internet service should be clarified. All the ad said was that we would not need a wifi password, it did not include that we had to pay for the wifi.. Which also would not have been a problem if it had been stated clearly in the ad for the condo
