Perfect Place
This was our first time to Harbor Island and it won't be the last! It's a beautiful quiet place to vacation. The condo was clean, beautiful and had everything we needed. The beach was a short walk away. We had a wonderful anniversary trip and plan to be bring our family back soon!

My daughter suggested the title of the review because the beach life was amazing! Pelican Place is the perfect place to visit! Terrific location with everything you need. Great beach at Harbor Island plus the fun of bigger waves at Hunting Island thanks to the included pass. This was our second year at this condo and won’t be the last!

Very Clean Place
It’s rare to find a vacation property that’s very clean and well taken care of! This one is! As soon as you walk in the doors, the bright and open interior is so welcoming. The kitchen is stocked just right with all the essentials you need. Everything is so tidy and thoroughly cleaned. The fridge was squeaky clean and spacious. We enjoyed our 3 night stay!

Great family trip!
My family and I had a wonderful time at the condo. It had everything we needed and was perfect for our needs. It’s just a short walk to the beach on the island, and just a short drive to Hunting Island. We will be back!

Amazing vacation
My wife and three young kids stayed at St. Helena Island. We had a wonderful week. The condo was clean, spacious, and every bit as advertised! The adjacent state park (park pass included at rental) was gorgeous and had a “normal” beach with waves and water at low tide. Highly recommend renting this place if you are looking at this location!!

Heaven on St Helena Island
We spent a long holiday weekend on St Helena Island for the perfect getaway. The condo was fresh, clean, beautifully appointed and delightful to stay in. Far enough from the. Roads yet close enough to Beaufort for dining out or shopping. The best part was steps away from the beach!! The security team made us feel safe and secure and we’re very pleasant.

The Perfect Condo
This is one of the cleanest rentals we have ever stayed in! It was well stocked, had comfortable beds and was very convenient to the beach, pool and amenities. We stayed with two small children and I highly recommend! Susan is very responsive and great to work with! Evolve was quick resolve a log in issue to the site and was great to work with! Thank for another great Harbor Island experience!

Great Condo in a Beautiful Place
We loved this condo. It had everything we needed without being cluttered. It was the perfect size for the two of us and was tastefully decorated. The community has 2 pools and one was very close to the condo. The beach was a short walk and we also loved the Hunting Island pass. Harbor Island isn’t a popular tourist destination so this was absolutely the perfect place for this gal who doesn’t like a crowd. The instructions were perfect and we never once needed to contact our host. I highly recommend staying here. It’s truly the perfect place for a quiet and relaxing vacation.

close to state park, beaches, turtle nests lots for families!
great location! quick access to beach, I walked out there every morning with my coffee. We had family camping at Hunting island so wanted a place nearby. 5minutes! loved having a park pass included for a day at the state park. One day our family came to hang with us and take a beach break pool hopping. Susan was a great host! answered questions quickly, including letting property know about a broken step leading to beach. It was fixed by the next morning. This was our couldn't believe there were 105 turtle nests on the island! Missed watching any hatch though. first trip to this area but Will definitely be back!

Best friend stay-vacation
My best friend and I rented this condo for the weekend for a beach and pool get away. We enjoy ourselves and relaxed the whole time. The unit is very well decorated and is super clean. I was impressed with how new it seemed. The bed is very comfortable and good for those with back problems (in my opinion). The only problem that we found with the property is the unevenness that we felt in the floor. For an older person with equilibrium problems or walking problems, that floor could cause many walking problems. The floor seems very "hill" and "valley" in some places. My friend and I took turns sleeping on the bed and sleeper sofa. The sofa bed was not comfortable at all. You might want to look into that.

Unit was nice - Property Manager was awful
The booking process and communication leading up to the check-in was great. The unit was very nicely furnished and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. As we were unpacking and getting situated, we found multiple bugs that looked like roaches. When we contacted the property manager, she informed us that they were palmetto bugs and that they were very common in the Carolinas and there was nothing she could do about it. She proceeded to asked me in a very condescending tone, "have you ever stayed in South Carolina before because they are everywhere." I actually have stayed in South Carolina many times and this was the first time I had ever found palmettos in the houses and units I've rented. I have been renting with VRBO for many many years and I have never experienced such a condescending, rude, unhelpful interaction. It was awful. I felt like I was bothering her. We later had issues with the keyless door code -- needless to say I was reluctant to call her -- but I did. And she never called me back. She simply texted me saying code should work...but it didn't. She also said Evolve, the property management company, would be contacting me about the palmetto bug issue and the door code. I never heard from them. Given how I was treated, I will never stay at this unit again.

Passing of my brother
It was a rushed decision because my brother was very sick. I wanted a location that was close to where he lived and of course I needed facility that had cooking aminities. This location was perfect and it provided everything I needed. Susan Schiavon did a fantastic job of taking care of us in a time of need. I can't thank her enough. The only complaint I have is the furniture and floors where not cleaned or dusted. It needed more dish clothes. Not to take away from location and condo because it was nice.
