Hilton Head Beach Villa 3 - Sea La Vie

Loved the property and the location. We had an issue with the freezer door not closing all the way, but property management sent someone out right away. Some rooms could have been a little cleaner, but I understand cleaning company is probably short staffed and under time limits. We had light bulbs that were burned out, but we finally discovered extra ones in the laundry room. The main complaint was the toaster in the kitchen was not working, but we found other ways to toast bread. Loved the upstairs deck and the short walk to the beach. Would rent this property again.

The location was perfect. The property was nice, had everything needed for a great stay at the beach. The pictures and descriptions were accurate, and I plan to stay there again.

Great oceanfront location for relaxing week at Hilton Head Island. Very comfortable, easy walk to the beach. Had some wifi issues and there were a few items shown in photos that weren't actually at the rental - patio umbrella and espresso machine. Otherwise, kitchen was stocked well and condo was great for our family of 4. Beach area was large and property was well kept.

Great location right by the ocean and can also walk to Coligny. The blinds in the lower living area did not cover the sliding glass door, which would have been nice to know since we were counting on that as a sleeping area. Kitchen was well equipped and the outdoor balcony was perfect to hear the ocean at night. Pool was a little small but spent most of the time at the ocean.

This villa was super clean and neat. The new decor was comfy and functional. The outdoor space was great and the kitchen was well equipped!
It is the perfect short walk to the beach and steps away from the pool. The pool is not as big as expected but was never crowded. The view is pretty. All around a great place for a small family. I wouldn't recommend more than 4 or 5 adults in the space, mainly because the living space where most would gather just isn't super big. We would definitely return!

Wonderful time and location

- Margaret M. from Evans, Posted: 06/16/2020

Beach Villas is by far our favorite complex to stay in. This was our first time in an Oceanfront villa and BV3 was wonderful. We loved the layout and the decor. There was more than enough room for all 8 of us. I personally loved sitting on the deck in the morning enjoying the quiet. This is a lovely complex and we especially enjoy the fact that it’s a smaller complex - much quieter and very relaxing. Hopefully we can book BV3 again next summer.

We have stayed at Hilton Head Beach Villas many times over the past couple of decades and have stayed in several different villas. We have stayed in Villa 3 in most recent trips to Hilton Head. We love the property, the villa layout and the property's convenient location to other places of interest on the island. We particularly enjoy the ocean view and large deck of Villa 3 and appreciate the updates that we found this year!
Our only issue/concern this visit was a lengthy delay in getting into the villa at check in due to later than expected cleaning needs. While we don't think this was an issue with the cleaning crew at all, we would have appreciated better communication from the rental office staff in keeping us informed and updated about timing of readiness to get in to the villa. Subsequent communications with the rental office were handled in a timely and professional manner.

We have stayed at the Hilton Head Beach Villas many times over the years in various units. We love the property grounds, the layout of the villas and its convenient location to other island areas and activities. We particularly enjoy the oceanfront villa #3, especially because of its large oceanfront deck. Our family spends the majority of our beach vacation on the beach and have always found the beach area in front of this property to be enjoyable, easily accessed and not too crowded. The layout of this villa accommodates our extended family, allowing for privacy for all with the bedrooms and bathrooms.
As we have stayed at villa #3 several times, and hope to return in the future, our only comment/recommendation would be to update some items (especially the living room couch)which are beginning to show a little too much "age".

- Gary R. from Cincinnati, Posted: 07/18/2017

Thank you for your review. We're glad you enjoyed your stay!! We wanted to let you know that the owner has updated his villa with new living room furniture, appliances, a new HVAC and has had the entire villa re-painted!! We hope to have you stay with us again during your next vacation in Hilton Head!!

Great place for a relaxing vacation. Beautiful view of the ocean, nice space for kids to run around, and a short walk on a nice wooden boardwalk to the beach. Close to shopping and bike paths. Perfect for extended family vacation!

- Greg F. from Waterford, Posted: 04/10/2017

Perfect location for a winter break....we enjoyed this rental, especially the view and beach proximity. Convenience to Sea Pines and Coligny were also plusses for us. Would definitely return.

- Bill M. , Posted: 03/03/2017

Lots of space to spread out plus a large area on the main floor to gather together. Very large deck with an amazing view of the ocean.

- Andrea S. from Brunswick, Posted: 06/20/2016

We stayed at this villa in May 2016. The villa is wonderful, absolutely no complaints!! The location is perfect, beautiful beach and walking distance to Coligny Circle. The management staff are very accommodating and helpful. Can't wait to come back!

wonderful

- Anthony P. from New Rochelle, Posted: 08/11/2015

We've been coming to Hilton Head for 35 years. Best place we've ever stayed.

- Anonymous from Hopkinsville, Posted: 08/03/2015

We stayed 4th of July weekend and the following week. The accommodations were terrific. The house is a split level style so it affords areas of privacy but the shared kitchen / living room area is just the right size for gathering everyone for a meal. The outdoor decks are wonderful for morning or evening coffee, meals, or just relaxing. The views from the upper deck are absolutely gorgeous! The beach area associated with this complex is relatively uncrowded. The folks at the management company are very nice and attended quickly and efficiently to all of our needs. We enjoyed our stay so much that I have already booked the same unit for next summer.

- Alleta M. from Rich Creek, Posted: 07/13/2015

Sea La Vie was a great place to stay! Just a few steps from the beach. Great ocean view with large area for children to play. The patios - upper and lower deck- provided ample room for relaxing and grilling!

- Krista L. from Thomson , Posted: 06/15/2015

This was the perfect villa for our family plus it has the most fantastic view of the ocean. The full moon shining on the water at night was spectacular and listening to the waves was so relaxing. The villa was spacious, clean, well layed out and well equipped. There were 6 adults in our group and at no time did we feel cramped. It is located in a great area close to bike trails, stores and most important the beach. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone.

- Brenda V. from Barrie, Posted: 05/13/2015

We had such a great time at our stay at this beach villa. All the amenities we needed, and lovely accommodations! wonderful!

- Kathleen M. from Richmond, Posted: 05/01/2015

Beautiful sunrises, biking on the beach, enjoying nature. Wonderful experience in Hilton Head Island. A nature lovers Utopia. Beach Villas is located in a great section of the island. We biked to coffee, biked to and on the beach, biked to lunch, market, nails etc in a safe, lovely environment. We were treated to alligators, shore birds, and turtles regularly.

- Carol and Armand M. from Lake George, Posted: 04/14/2015

A great place! It has Everything you need. Nice sea view! We had a great time!

- Anonymous from Winnetka, Posted: 04/06/2015

The staff at vacation time are the best. We've been dealing with them for 20 years and the excellent customer service keeps us coming back. Yes the property is beautiful but the folks bend over backwards to make you feel at home!!

- Erwin M. from Flanders, Posted: 12/01/2014

This is a wonderful condo in a great location. This was the second year we were able to stay for 4 weeks and hope to be able to do it again next year. We are hopeful that the green growth between the beachfront condos and the beach will not be allowed to grow so high as to obstruct the view of he ocean.

- Bonnie T. from Pittsburgh, Posted: 10/20/2014

The property is a terrific location on HHI with a beautiful view of the dunes and the relaxing sound of the Atlantic Ocean. The unit has easy access to the beach and pool. BV3 is a wonderful spacious property with cozy comfortable furnishings and is well suited for an active family.

- Linda D. from Marlton, Posted: 08/28/2014

it was wonderful . the place we stayed at was so nice , this was our sixth time there .the people that take care of the everything from reservations to care for the grounds do such a wonderful job. we are going back next year.

- Anthony P. from New Rochelle, Posted: 08/01/2014

The layout of this condo made our vacation stay perfect for our family six! We definitely enjoyed the deck and the beautiful ocean views. The short bike ride to Coligny Plaza was perfect for dining, ice cream, or picking up a few groceries. We loved the pool and the wonderful childrens pool! The convenience to the beach was a plus with two little ones! We will definitely return for another wonderful stay in your condo!

- Anonymous from New Philadelphia, Posted: 07/25/2014

This was a second stay at this beach villa. We love the 's ocean front so you have a beautiful view of the ocean and can hear the waves off the deck. It's also a short walk to Coligny Plaza. It's far enough away from Coligny that there aren't a lot of people on the beach in front of the private beach access. My only complaint is the mattress in the upstairs master bedroom is harder than the one downstairs. It could use a soft mattress pad. We loved our stay and will be back next year.

- Denise R. from Aurora, Posted: 06/23/2014

We're glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to you vacationing with us again!! In regards to the upstairs mattress in the master bedroom being too hard; I did want to let you know that the owner has purchased a nice cushioned pad for that bed.

Despite the nasty, cold weather, we had a fabulous time in Hilton Head. Wonderful views from our villa and spacious accommodations.

we have been coming to Hilton Head for over ten years and we enjoyed this location more than any other location we have stayed at.
can you please have someone get in touch with us so we can book this unit and one other one for a month next year

- Don and Mary S. from Huntsville, Posted: 11/18/2013

We have been vacationing in Hilton Head for 34 years, usually staying somewhere on South Forest Beach. This was our first time at HH Beach Villa and we absolutely loved it. Our villa was in a great location and very comfortable. It was perfect for our needs. The only reason I gave it four stars for cleanliness was because the 2 large air vents next to the stairs were very dirty and dusty when we arrived. But it was promptly taken care of by the management company with cleaning and new filters. The management company was great, especially Stephanie. They took care of any needs promptly. Very professional, efficient and friendly. We loved the villa and the location and hope to return again next year. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone.

- Bonnie T. from Pittsburgh, Posted: 10/14/2013

Beautiful area, friendly, professional staff. We have been coming to Hilton Head and renting from Vacation Time for over 20 years and have always been happy

- Nancy M. from Boston, Posted: 08/26/2013

The Villa is in a fantastic location with beautiful views of the ocean. Walking/biking distance to Coligny Circle, beautiful beach and grounds. Can't wait to return. VTHHI was easy to work with and very accomodating.

- Anonymous from Schaumburg, Posted: 08/07/2013

WE HAVE BEEN THERE MANY TIMES ,AND WE LOVE IT .WE HOPE TO BE COMING BACK NEXT YEAR .

- Anthony P. from New Rochelle, Posted: 07/31/2013

We have been coming to Hilton Head since around 1993 and have rented from Vacation Time (Formally Adventure Inn) for YEARS and stayed in at least 3 different properties. We think it is a good value and good location.

- Paul H. from Kings Mountain, Posted: 07/10/2013

A good stay. Minor problems with 1 toilet but not a big deal.

- Bernadette S. from Greenville, Posted: 07/02/2013

I LOVED the location of the rental. It has a great view of the ocean and is just a short walk away from the beach. The beach was wasn't crowded at all where our beach access was. The villa was also a short walk to Coligny Plaza. We look forward to returning next year!

- Denise R. from Aurora, Posted: 06/24/2013

We enjoyed our stay in Hilton Head Island a great deal. The location of our beach villa was fantastic. We rented bikes for the month and enjoyed biking on the beach or on the bike paths on a daily basis. We barely used our car because our condo was within safe biking distance to everywhere. The condo was spacious and well laid out. There were ample dishes and cookware. There were a few items that were broken and the management company attempted to fix them promptly. The Management staff was extremely helpful, pleasant, and courteous. We enjoyed our stay a great deal.

- Carol and Armand M. from Lake George, Posted: 04/10/2013

As always - excellent

- Walter C. from Knoxville, Posted: 01/30/2013

I will rent here again.

- Erwin M. from Flanders, Posted: 12/10/2012

EVERY ONE WAS SO NICE AND HELPFUL . FROM THE FIRST PHONE CALL I NEW WE WERE IN GOOD HANDS. IT WAS A GREAT VACATION .

- Anthony P. from New Rochelle, Posted: 10/09/2012

Have rented here for many years and have always enjoyed it. The villas are comfortable and well-located, and the management company is friendly and very helpful.

- Nancy M. from Boston, Posted: 08/27/2012

Everything about this villa and it's location is wonderful. We couldn't have been happier with VTHHI or the villa. The location, the beach and the views are spectacular. Can't wait to come back next year!

- Anonymous from Schaumburg, Posted: 08/07/2012

We have stayed at the Hilton Head Beach Villas 7 or 8 times over the past 20 years. Though set on a public beach, the area near the Beach Villas is much less crowded than along neighboring, larger developments. We, especially, enjoyed our beach-facing deck, making both morning and evening periods very relaxing. We won't hesitate to return

- Gary R. from Cincinnati, Posted: 07/23/2012

Over all everything was great. One of the ceiling lights in master bath was covered with black plastic.
The blind was missing on one of the windoows in the living area

- Anonymous from Gahanna, Posted: 07/18/2012

There is no better way to start your day than coming down the stairs with a view of the ocean. Beautiful villa, clean, fantastic location ~ thus the reason we continue returning year after year!

Hilton head beach villas are a great location. Loved being right on the ocean side. It's quiet and private.

- Elaine S. from Augusta, Posted: 09/20/2011

Have been staying here for years and it is always wonderful

- Nancy M. from Boston, Posted: 08/15/2011

Beautiful place, and we loved the ocean view off the main balcony. Everything was clean,well furnished, the condo was well laid out, and the kitchen very well equipped. Three bedrooms and bathrooms were great for our crowd of 6 adults (and one baby)- no waiting in line for a bathroom! The beach was very nice, and while this general area of Hilton Head seems quite busy, inside this condo complex it is very quiet. We enjoyed our stay!

- Philip and Jane H. from Charlotte, Posted: 08/09/2011

Beautiful villa and perfect location! We could not have asked for more!

- Anonymous from Spartanburg, Posted: 01/06/2011

Have used your service several times and before when it was Adventure Inn and have been very happy. When I got there this time to pay the balance due with a seldom used Credit Union Visa, it was declined. No one to talk to about it on saturday and your staff allowed me to wait till monday. When I talked to the Credit Union found out there was a $1K limit that I had been unaware of and they lifted that and the bill was taken care of. With weary travelers including 3 children, that was really appreciated.

- Dean B. from Lilburn, Posted: 08/16/2010

The sheets especially on the kingsize bed need to be replaced with thicker new sheets. The ones we had were thin, almost like cheesecloth. On the plus side all the bedding including the mattress pad looked clean and freshly washed. I did not complain because this seemed minor, but it would be an easy improvement for you. I would recommend this property to a friend, but very few could afford it.
You could not find a better property manager.

Such a beautiful beach villa! We loved the spaciousness and all the extras. We were extremely comfortable - felt like home away from home. The management was friendly and helpful as always. We've always had wonderful vacations with the Vacation Time properties. Nothing but highest accolades from our family.

- Stephen A. from Chester, Posted: 07/06/2010

This our third trip to Hilton Head Island and we always stay at the Hilton Head Beach Vills. The villa is very spacious and the oceanfront location is the best. We spent alot of time at the beach, relaxing around the pool and biking on the new bike paths. What a great getaway.
