R & R / Family Business
Overall, the Villa was nice, the 1st day the villa was quiet, and the owner / host provided everything needed to get off to a good start. Also, the necessity items- bedding, eating utensils and fire extinguishers were available. The communication was good when problems would arise. It is an older property, so things that go along with that are understood like mold and dust. There was an excess of Black Mold on the vents, especially in the Living room. Also, Mold was growing on the ceiling. However, my peace was disturbed by the daily, very loud fire alarm. The fire alarm went off 5 times during my stay. 2 times in the evening and 3 times early in the morning. Although, there was a hint of smoke, the firemen continued to come out and report it was a faulty alarm system. Because of the recent scare of an old Condo collapsing in FL, I checked out earlier than plan. Although, the villa / condos are old, safety items (alarm systems, mold, mildew) have to be checked and a thorough deep cleaning (Spring & Fall) must be done in addition to cleaning the floors, the couch, the couch pillows and vacuuming carpet, especially on the outer deck or the $120.00 cleaning charge should be refunded.

Great little spot
If u are looking for a budget friendly spot to relax close to the beach, this is it. If u are looking for a boujie 5 star resort experience this isn't it just know what u are looking for. That being said this place was more economical than most of the hotels and the hotels all had aweful reviews. This condo is a quick walk to the beach, easy drive to everywhere, hot showers with good pressure, comfy main bed and free wifi,. The bunk beds are kinda small so maybe not great if u have teens coming with u but i would book here again in a heart beat. Owner has excellent.communication. i have no complaints!

Relaxing holiday getaway
My wife and I spent a week here over the holidays to relax and play some golf. This was our second time staying at the Beach and Tennis Resort, but our first time in this particular condo. Pros: Resort is very nice, lots of amenities with the beach, pickleball/tennis, biking, and restaurant. Close to golf, restaurants, bike trails, and other attractions outside the resort. Owner was helpful and very responsive. Check-in and access to condo was simple and easy. Plenty of bath towels were provided. Cons: Unit was simply not clean. Bugs crawling on the floor and in cabinets. Floors were dirty and clearly hadn't been swept or mopped between stays. Balcony was dirty and seemed to be tilting uncomfortably away from the building. Pillows on the couch smelled awful of body odor. Headboard on bed was broken. Several towel bars/hangers in the bathroom were broken. Microwave was disgustingly dirty. Toaster burnt everything and set off smoke alarm every time. Kitchen utensils and cookware was very limited, some needed to be cleaned before use. Extra paper towel, toilet paper, hand soap, garbage bags were not provided. Beach items and cleaning supplies (vacuum and broom) were just thrown in a closet, dirty, and not effective to use. Unit looked nothing like pictures on listing, so if you are booking based on eye appeal, do not book here. Not really sure why we were charged a cleaning fee when it was pretty clear this unit gets very little cleaning attention.

Repeat Guests - already looking forward to next time!
My husband and I returned to this property in December 2022 after also staying here during a similar timeframe the previous year. We were delighted with how clean the villa was and appreciated the extra towels provided as well as updates such as a new patio door, coffee table, and refrigerator. The only bummer was that the stove/oven did not seem work. We love the third floor location and the resort overall. I rented a bike from the resort for the duration of our stay and throughly enjoyed daily bike rides as well as walks/runs on the beach. We can’t wait to return again next year!

Pleasant Fall Break
Very close to the beach which we loved. Even closer to the pool (which is very big). Having stayed at other resorts in HH, we know all too well how a long walk to the beach or pool can make or break the entire trip for us because of our children. We have an 8 year old, 7 year old, and a 1 year old. Long walks are brutal with the little one. Location (as far as HHI goes) was great. I personally like the north end better than the south end (Sea Pines). Nothing too far away and we were closer to some of our favorites like Skull Creek and Harold’s. Condo was adequate for a family like ours. Any more people and we would have to go with a larger one. Really enjoyed our stay! Will be back!

Wonderful Beach Condo!
This little condo was great! Super close to the pool and beach, clean, stocked with everything we needed (for the condo) - just perfect for my husband and I. And, the bed was quite comfortable too (and there were tons of extra linens and bath towels provided! :) We have stayed at this resort three times previously and this is by far our favorite condo so far. Perfect for a couple (or small family). The host was fantastic with communication as well - We will look for this condo to book going forward for sure!

Clean unit and great location!
Great location, a very clean unit. We had everything we needed. It was very nice to have a oscillating fan in the closet, since the bedroom got a little stuffy for me. Pool was too cold for us, but I did enjoy laying in the lounge chairs. I look forward to returning to this unit in the near future. I would recommend staying here!

Imagine staying in a cheap motel BUT located on a nice resort!
First time staying in HHI Beach and Tennis Resort and first time staying in Folly Beach area. I have always stayed between Coligny and toward Sea Pines. I really enjoyed Folly Field! I also like the Beach and Tennis Resort. It would be great fun for families with kids for sure. The security at the resort was there but not overbearing. The grounds crew were working diligently planting flowers for the spring. The pool looked awesome but it was a little cool in the air for swimming for me. The sports bar, Coconutz, is located just outside of the security check in and non-resort visitors can go there. The beach is WIDE and flat. Now the condo is exactly as explained in VRBO (if you also read the reviews). I wanted a bed, shower, fridge and working TV/Internet and the Sand Dollar gave me that. I sleep there and then I'm out and about the rest of the time. If you want to cook dinners in the room, this might be a challenge here. I wanted a low-priced condo and Sand Dollar was that. As for any issues in the room, I privately told the Owner/Manager. With that in mind, I'll make some general comments: the room was clean, everything worked (stove cookware is poor though), very safe and convenient electronic door lock, soft comfortable bed and nice balcony with ocean view.

Resort nice, Unit not so much
Pros: The resort grounds are well maintained, the staff friendly & helpful (except for security), & the view from the balcony is a plus. Cons: Bathroom was filthy (tub was not cleaned & still had hairs in drain & around, floors/corners dirty, light sconces filthy, medicine cabinet had hairs in it & had not been wiped out, door to hallway was filthy, AND the inner plastic shower curtain was absolutely filthy & therefore the shower was not used only tub after I'd bought disinfectant wipes to clean the tub), the broken coffee table propped up against the patio door was an eye sore & in the way, the kitchen appliances including fridge all need to be updated/replaced, there were no blankets on the twin bunk beds in the hall (did find one small thin comforter in bedroom closet) & the lower bunk had ONE sheet on it that didn't even cover the bed to the top & had to pull down the extra sheet from the top bunk to make it workable, the floors were dirty/sandy as if no vacuuming had been done to remove the sand & needed a thorough cleaning, the patio windows were dirty & especially not cleaned at top as you could see the wipe marks not reach, the couch cushions need to be steam cleaned & were stained, & there were no extras in kitchen like foil/salt & pepper/disinfectant wipes/etc. - & one of the soup/salad bowls was majorly cracked where if you used/put it in microwave it would have broken altogether. Was advised by property owner that the front desk is manned 24 hours so I could get my parking pass (since we'd be arriving late) - it is NOT as they close AT 10 p.m. & the personnel (2 women) were leaving/logged off when I arrived & told me to check with the security booth. I pulled up to the security booth & the guy working late was clueless & gave me a hard time until one of the women from the front desk pulled behind me to tell him to print me a pass. I was given a hard time AGAIN by security the next day when trying to re-enter in the early morning as the pass given was long expired he said so had to ask at front desk who had to try & contact property owner to verify I should have a pass as it was NOT called in. There was no direction by property owner on where to park to get/find apartment on the 3rd floor of Building C. I suggest taking pics to send to property owner. I bought foil/wipes/salt&pepper/paper plates/cooking spray & told the property owner to tell cleaning to NOT remove from the unit & leave for the NEXT guests who stayed as a courtesy.
