Well stocked kitchen, short walk to beach
The condo was clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Our bed was extremely broken down and we asked them to replace it. They did so the very next day. We are pleased with the customer service and would stay again. The couch and recliner could use replaced too, but we were comfortable.

Vacation 2024
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been vacationing at Hilton Head for almost 20 years and this was our first stay at Xanadu Villas. Check in staff were very pleasant, the unit was clean upon arrival and the kitchen was stocked with lots of useful items. We were very pleased with the unit and all of the amneties offered - The beach chairs, beach wagon and toys were all an added plus that made our stay that much better. The walk to the ocean was very doable, even with small children. I liked having two balconies where we could drink our morning coffee or just hang out in the evenings. I highly recommend Xanadu Villas and will more than likely choose staying there in the future.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Although we don't control the weather, our stay in Villa B5 of Xanadu Villas was enjoyable as the villa description and its location were exactly as described. The villa was comfortable will all of the amenities mentioned in its description. The Kitchen was very well equipped with many hand appliances. It is well situated in the building with only one flight of stairs required to access it. [ or take the elevator if required] A Laundry room was available on the same floor which was handy since we were 8 persons. Beds were comfortable. Having the two exposures [east facing for the morning sun and west facing for the evening sun] was great. All elements of the villa were operational and we had no issues during our stay.

Property description accurately matches the site conditions. Building and the Villa interior are dated but clean and functional. Area is generally very quiet. The kitchen is very well equipped for those who want to eat in and prepare their own meals. Proximity to beach and Coligny Plaza are just short walks. Beach was generally far enough away from Coligny Beach to not be inundated with people or beach traffic during our stay.

Reviewer Comments: I was very pleased with the rental company and would go with them again!! Very helpful and friendly!! The condo on the other hand was very dusty , floors had not been mopped and there was debris under the beds. Outside the building needed pressure washed to get the green mold off and the pool area was small. Location was good

Back home surprise!
When we checked in there were dirty towels on the balcony floor, a precursor of what was to come. Our daughter found a cockroach on our last night. Then on our drive back to Chicago we found one on my wife’s clothing. Haven’t found any since we got back home but am leary. Filthy drapes and small stains on pillowcase and sheets. Pans are terrible, cannot flip an egg, it will stick. Knives struggled to cut a tomato. I may have missed it in the description but you have to pay for laundry and we didn’t bring a supply of quarters. Wi-fi does not reach the master bedroom or bath. The good? Location, 5 minute walk to beach and they have a pretty nice pool in the complex. The unit itself is good size but it needs a very deep cleaning.

Nice Enough, but not THAT nice
The property was nice enough, but left a bit to be desired based on price and what the pictures made it seem. It appeared like some cheap renovations had been made to flip this property into a short-term rental (STR). Probably the worst shower heads I’ve ever seen in a STR - the owner investing $50-100 per shower for a nice head with a wand would be nice because the pressure and temperature were just fine otherwise. The vacuum didn’t really work and when it did run, it smelled the entire apartment like burnt rubber. The master shower leaked and dripped about once per second. I reported to property manager; plumber showed up and sent repair quote to owner for approval, but owner must not have approved of minimal cost because plumber never came back to complete repair. Owner should have a base level of pre-approval for repairs with the management company, and/or it needs to be increased based on hyper-inflation we’re experiencing. The other bath shower was spraying water all over the bathroom and soaking the floor and the hallway light was out and property management sent someone out on Father’s Day to fix that immediately, though. Our 2 year old daughter had a serious incident at the pool where she was walking and stepped on the filter cover lid and it caved in our her. Her leg became wedged from her heel to her knee laterally. It took 3 adults to free her! Thankfully one was an EMT and she avoided serious injury! I reported that ill-fitting pool cover lid as a safety hazard to the management company and it was never addressed the entire week. The master bed frame is super cheap and squeaky. The pros were the location, the pool (other than the aforementioned safety hazard), the proximity to the beach and Coligny Beach shops/restaurants, the safety of the unit, and the closet full of beach/pool toys available (you really don’t have to bring ANYTHING with you other than a cooler!) Again, it was a fine visit, but I don’t think it was worth anywhere near what we paid. A few hundred dollars investment from the owner on the above items could’ve improved the stay drastically.

Wonderful stay
The condo is beautiful. Plenty of space with the exception of a rather small kitchen but we made it work. The pool is deep, which was fun for all of our ages. Across the street from the beach which is a slight walk and you have to cross the street, we didn't mind it but I did anticipate that the beach was closer. Overall it was great, quaint, clean, and very secure.

Awesome property a block from the beach. We took advantage of the beach cart which made bringing our stuff to the beach very easy. We golfed, went to the Coastal Discovery Museum, Sea Pines Nature Resort and saw gators, Harbor Town and did a day trip to Savannah. Wish we had another week!!!

unfortunate choice
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was tired, from the uncomfortable, sagging furniture to the fishy smell that assaulted our noses immediately upon entering the unit. Because of so few windows and heavy curtains that could not be fully opened it remained gloomy even on sunny days. In the bedrooms neither the wifi nor Tvs worked. The Tv in the main living area had sound issues. The air conditioner worked either at full blast in the 'on' mode or not at all on the 'auto' mode so we alternately froze or fried during the night. The adjoining unit was under renovation and a loud drilling noise persisted for a full day. Nobody slept in that day. The master bathroom was so small that we had to close the door to sit on the toilet. The dishwater did not clean the dishes well. They left only 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom for two weeks. We had to buy more as well as paper towels and garbage bags.The frying pans were all chipped The only bright spot was the pool area(unheated) and the tennis court.

Loved our stay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental unit was very spacious, clean and in a good location on South Forest Beach. The main lanai has a pretty view of palm trees and water in a private wooded area. Kitchen was upgraded and fully equipped with functional newer appliances. There is a very large screen TV in the living room, and appropriately sized TVs in each bedroom. Lots of clean towels and starter supplies included. It has central AC/heat that works very well. One feature we especially liked was the numerous coat/bathing suit hooks on one wall, which made it easy to hang up these items - this feature is rare in our experience. Areas needing attention: the nonstick frying pans are all worn out (we bought a new one and left it); the master shower e very happy with our interactions with Vacation Time staff - very friendly and helpful people!needs more light; the main bathtub is super slippery (we bought a bath mat). These were all minor things that were not detrimental to our stay. We’re very thankful to the owners for opening up their property to us. Thank you!

The place was a little tired although being updated. Mattresses were spongy, master bath tub faucet was dripping and the unit was dusty and not well cleaned. Also, the 1/2 bath door adjacent to the living room did not have a locking knob on it. Never seen that. Beyond those flaws, it was a decent place to stay. Management company should tighten up on the cleaning and maintenance, it was definitely lacking.
