Beautiful Island - Only Sleeps 4

What a beautiful island, but there were a couple of issues with the unit: 1. This Unit ONLY Sleeps 4, NOT 5, as it states on VRBO - and also populates in the VRBO search. When I emailed the Owner to ask where the 5th person sleeps, she said, “The listing states two master suites. It states maximum occupancy at five persons...not sleeps five.” 2. We did not know we needed a Code to enter the activities areas in the island (Community Center, pool, etc). When we emailed Mary to ask for the code, she stated, “I cannot give out my member number to guests renting my villa. The member ID is exclusive to the use of the member only, and is NEVER given out to anyone else.” It would have been good to know this prior to arriving. 3. Very Limited TV Channels 4. Top floor bathroom needs a new shower-head Positives included: 1. The House was Clean. 2. 2 Adult Bicycles included - lots of fun and great way to see the beautiful island. 3. Main Gate is very helpful and kind.

So much opportunity, but poor communication caused us not to come

I ended up paying for this location which looks like a beautiful place. However, I had to move our dates because someone in my house got Covid. I contacted the seller and after several communications and me sending a policy vrbo posts about Covid the owner agreed to move the date. The next part is when items went sour. I was told my partner and I would need to provide negative Covid test and our proof of vaccine. Now neither of us ever had Covid,but I understood the request and did not find it unreasonable. Then I ask for an email to send her the info and she said no I would need to take it to security on-site. This felt uncomfortable. But I was ok with it until she mentioned I would need a negative test within 24 hours or we would not be able to use any of the amenities including the restaurant on site, so we would now have to pay for two rapid test as we both tested negative had no symptoms and were vaccinated and this date was three weeks later than our original booking. No where in the posting did it advise this would be protocol. I refused and said this was unfair, I now felt stressed and if my whole trip was going to be ruined. I did not feel I could trust the communication from the host. I called VTBO, the gentI spoke with agreed with me and said he would dispute the charge, which I did. So the charge back was refused because of the host cancpolicy, but the fact was I never wanted to cancel, but I did not want to get there and be turned away or harassed. I contacted VRBO after the charge back was refused and they stated they recommended the host give me a 60% refund or a future stay. She did not offer either. Customer service is as important as the location and amenities to me. Most people will not have issues, but if you do it is important to know if someone is willing to work with you.

Property and location wonderful, our only complaint was lack of television channels. We go to SC for 1-2 months. This year we could only do about 4-5 weeks due to unexpected health issues which, of course, affected our stay, and which meant a huge loss of our payment. The condo's channel line-up is restricted to about five total offerings, which wasn't enough for our extended stay. Otherwise, the unit was well-furnished and comfortable.

2012 Bluff Villa Review

Listed as 3 bedrooms. Only 2 bedrooms and owner had no reply other than "sincerely apologize" for incorrect listing. Both bikes flat tires, no golf cart, no use of pool, had to change lightbulbs, only basic TV channels. Accommodations disappointing but island is fabulous.

Wonderful host and beautiful location

I can't say enough about how wonderful this Villa is on Dataw Island! The view is beautiful and the villa is very relaxing and cozy like being at home. Mary is a wonderful host. We were there for 9 days and a few small issues came up that she handled immediately and around our schedule. I would highly recommend this place and will stay there again if and when we are ever in the area.
