This condo is very nice except the carpet is very dated and dirty! The rest of the condo has many new features and is in a perfect location. If the carpet is replaced it would be great for four guests.

Loved everything about this property. The home was impeccably clean and inviting. The location is just a couple of minutes away from the beach in a nice quiet neighborhood. The available pool, tennis court and pickleball courts make this a great place for the whole family.

Love Ocean Gate Villas
We have staying in Ocean Gate Villas several times. It’s close to the beach and the pool is not packed with people. The house has been kept up nicely and is one of the nicer units. It was great having supplies and real soaps, etc available. We could not get into our unit at first so we had to call them super late and they were very nice about it. Only drawback was paying way too much to add an extra night on the front of our stay. This might have contributed to our issue getting in. Thank you for sharing your property with us.

Great Stay at 12 Ocean Villas (July 2022)
A few quick notes to add to other recent reviews: - Host2Coast were fantastic, providing a very clean home, pool towels (in addition to the linens and bath towels), and a welcome gift of a beach bag and 2 cold-koozies and cookies, as well as some cookies and popcorn - Great home for 4 (we were mom & dad and 2 sons) - would have been a bit tight for more than 4 (as that would have required someone on a pullout couch) - We timed the walk as between 6-7 minutes from the villa to the chairs at the end of the man made path; might be a bit longer if you are lugging beach chairs and any equipment - The pool was nice, and incredibly close to the backyard deck, but we never made it in (although we washed the sand off at the faucet outside the pool each day) - If you like to bring large/closed containers of cold beverages, bring your own holders or buy when there (otherwise, the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need, and a freezer that made ice) - Really enjoyed the stay - the only thing in need of potential upkeep is the carpet (a bit worn), and the rug under the dining room table (which looked to be taped down, but did not stay put - likely just needs to be swapped out). - Great stay, villa was convenient to all areas of Hilton Head, and very comfortable for our family!

Great location
The location was fantastic for a place not tied to a beachfront resort or community. It’s just a short walk to a mostly private beach and the pool is nice for small kids when a break from the beach is needed. The home has most everything you need and the beds were comfortable. The rental company was great. Our only complaint is the carpet and couches badly need replaced.

Great location, comfortable accommodations, and very responsive
The Property - perfect for a family of four. Plenty of space. Fully stocked kitchen. Two good sized bathrooms upstairs with a convenient half-bath on the first floor. Fantastic Smart TV on 1st floor. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. Amenities/beach gear - this way my biggest question going into the visit, so hopefully this review helps other future renters: beach/pool towels (3 upon arrival but they promptly brought us 2 more), wagon (0), boogie boards (2), beach umbrella (1), bikes (0), helmets (2), beach chairs (0). There are a lot of games & puzzles in the closet and a wide variety of books by the main bedroom. Location - about 100 feet from the Sea Pines gate off Cordillo. Short drive to shopping (Harris Teeter, CVS) and an easy bike ride to Coligny. The beach is a 10-minute (sandy) walk thru a man made/cut-thru path. If you have a lot of things, I definitely recommend a beach-wagon that can easily be pulled along & over sand. I attempted to count the number of steps from “door to umbrella” but lost track around 400 steps. Don’t hesitate to ask for specific directions! Other/Various - there was a good sized pool a dozen steps or so from the back door with plenty of poolside space with chairs and a few tables. Please note - there are landscaping/pool caretakers who are there most mornings. The full-size washer & dryers (with detergent provided) were daily life-changers. We only had one vehicle, and we took full advantage of parking in both spaces out front. Recommendation - highly recommend this property to others! It was very convenient and met our needs and expectations as first time visitors to HHI. One thing I also wanted to note was the warm welcome package & note left for us prior to arrival. It’s a really nice touch and as someone who had just driven many hours, it was even more appreciated. The text messages were also a great example of the communication & responsiveness of the management team.

The townhouse was comfortable, clean and bright. Just footsteps from the pool, and a quick 5 minute walk to the beach. The walking/bike rising path was just outside the front door. The complex was quiet, and the people we met were very friendly. Looking forward to another stay next year.

Excellent Stay
This was a great stay for our family of four. The townhouse was very clean and extremely spacious. It was nice to be greeted with flowers in the house and a gift bag. There were so many nice extras, such as dish detergent pods and laundry detergent pods for us to use. The property manager, Rena, was extremely nice and helpful. The location was great to restaurants, shops and the beach.

We liked the location. We did have to rewash most of the dishes and utensils. The back deck really needs to be repaired and the carpet could be replaced or professionally cleaned. The condo was comfortable and we were pleased with the complex. We would like to return next year. We did get to check in a bit earlier which we really appreciated.

Hilton Head - late august beach vacation
Great value. We wanted to get a place close enough to the beach and at a decent price. It was our first time in Hilton Head so we did not really know the how far these places are and if they have access to the beach. This place is just few minute walk from the beach so even if you carry bunch of stuff with you its very convenient. Communication with the property manager was excelent - the best we had so far. She responded almost right away to any text we sent het
