Romantic Accommodation in Saint Helena Island

This property was everything that I expected it to be. We utilized it during Christmas and the stay was great. My mom has mobility issues and most of bedrooms were on the first floor, which was a big plus for us. The overall experience was a good one! I will definitely seek out to rent again!

Blended family time at xmas. The house was perfect for everyone! great location to beach and walking. We are a blended family and the house offered enough comfort for all our different personalities! The dogs loved it too!

All of us said, "WOW" when we walked into the home. To me, it looks more beautiful in-person than it does in the on-line photos. Very lovely place! The only negative is the beach bikes look better in the online photos than in-person. Some of them need maintenance. The golf cart was perfect and ran flawlessly.

The house was beautiful and it was just a short walk across the boardwalk to the beach. We took full advantage of this and visited the beach several times. There was a cute little “fireplace” under the tv that we enjoyed one night. It was a little extra gem to the property.

Great location, super cute property. The amenities were excellent for kids. I wasn't sure if firewood was provided for the firepit but there was a huge stack of wood to use and the firepit was a highlight. My husband cooked steaks on the grill and that was also a big hit. The kitchen is very tiny, as other reviewers have said, but I'd rather have the space in the seating area—the kitchen table comfortably seats 10 and could do 12. We rented this home for a Christmas staycation and would happily stay in this house again.

We stayed at the Harbor Hideaway in December and thoroughly enjoyed it! The house is decorated beautifully in a coastal boho style, but not “over-decorated” … it is very comfortable. We loved the open plan with kitchen, relaxing couches and smart tv, and cozy electric fireplace, which we used every night! Luxurious king bed and beautiful bathroom. The screen porch was wonderful for watching the ever-changing marsh views … no horses, but still serene and beautiful.Harbor Hideaway was a perfect home base for local day trips. We did Port Royal (great Farmers Market on Sundays) downtown Beaufort (nice shops and historic homes) and Hunting Island State Park, which was just fantastic. (Thank you, Austin, for free pass.) The South Beach by lighthouse was great for walking for miles (our dog LOVED it!) but don’t miss the Boneyard Beach down by the Nature Center. The driftwood sculptures are simply amazing and there are plenty of small pieces, too. It’s well worth the .7 miles walk on trail from Nature Center. Get a brochure with map when you enter the park.Food wise, we recommend Madison’s in Port Royal for southern classics like fried green tomatoes, pimento cheese, and fried oysters, and Sea Eagle Seafood Market for fresh shrimp, crab, and oysters to eat at home.Lastly, kudos to Austin, a very friendly, flexible, and responsive host. We appreciate you and your wonderful home, and hope to return!
