More Than Anticipated

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 18, 2008
  • Stayed: Jun 2008
Before renting this property, we contacted the owner, who in turn sent us a DVD of the property and the surrounding area attractions as well as mailed us a map of the island and where the villa was. We were unsure of staying in a condominium thinking the beach would be would be very crowded. Upon arrival, the grounds of the island were beautiful and very well kept. The guards were friendly and helpful in giving directions to the exact location. The villa was extremely nice. The living room blinds could be opened at all times to take in the breathtaking view of the beach with the shrimp boats and the dolphins in the ocean.
Might I add that the master bedroom which was on the second floor had the same view. The beach was nice and probably had 20-30 people on it at any given time if that many. As far as area attractions, we went to Hunting Island State Park which was about a 5-7 min. drive and fished off the pier. We caught sharks, tarpons and whiting. We drove through the park to see the light house and visit the gift shop. Before going to Hunting Island, you must visit Barefoot Bubba's. This is a very fun gift shop where you can buy souvenir's and rent bicycles. Harbor Island Shop is next door and it has all the fishing supplies you will need with very helpful service. Next door to this is Johnson Creek Tavern where the locals go to eat. The food was great with a relaxed atmosphere. We visited Paris Island, Beaufort, Port Royal and Hilton Head. I would recommend Harbor Island to any one that wanted to get away to the beach for the beach because as far as small, quaint shops, there wasn't very many close by. We found live sand dollars on the ocean shore and the neighbors found star fish. There isn't a wide variety of shells but we didn't go for shells. I would go again and again if given a chance for a very peaceful and relaxing vacation.

Great Harbor Island View and Very Comfortable

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: May 23, 2013
  • Stayed: May 2013
In the past 2 years we have stayed in 5 different Cedar Reef condos on Harbor Island in buildings B, C, D and K – both one and two bedroom units. This condo was by far the most comfortable. The owner and rental agency were both attentive and receptive to questions and requests. After my first two experiences I started to bring my own kitchen items, but I didn’t even unpack them in this unit as it had everything I needed.
This unit has a true ocean view and the morning sun shines on the deck and in the master window making for a spectacular start to your day. As the sun goes down you can sit on the deck and look at the start or take your binoculars or telescope and watch the shrimpers out for the evening catch. Even though the ocean is over the dunes, you can still fall asleep to the sound of the waves.
We go to Harbor Island primarily for the shore birds, ocean critters and walking along the shoreline for miles and miles at low tide with nary a soul in sight. It is also a great place to take the kids as the “ocean” is friendlier than some other beaches.
All-and-all if you are looking to rent a condo on Harbor Island this one is a great full ocean facing location, a good value, comfortable, and hassle free.

Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your kind words! We truly try to keep "Almost Heaven" as comfortable and well-equipped as possible so that both we and our guests see it as their "home away from home"! Whether it's a short or long term stay, repeat guest (which we have several who keep coming back) or first timer, we want you to enjoy our "little slice of paradise" as much as we enjoy it and enjoying sharing it with you!

The condo was exactly as we expected. Very clean, quiet, relaxing and RIGHT on the beach. The pool was wonderful as it was still hot out this week. We visited Hunting Island, Savannah, Charleston, Beaufort and the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge. Although there were plenty of places to visit, it was so nice to just relax on the waterfront deck and read.

Everyone was helpful, getting there was easy and there were many restaurant choices within a short drive.
