St Helena Island Condo w/ Beach Views & Porch!

Reviews

• Harbor Island Condo

  5/5

  As usual we had a great vacation at Harbor Island. This was our first time in this unit and we loved it. It is listed as a one bedroom, but also has bunk beds in another room, so it is really a two bedroom. Great use of space. It was decorated very nice and clean. Being an end unit right beside the boardwalk to the beach was also a plus. We hope to stay there again.

• Beautiful place

  We booked this condo late and weren’t sure what to expect as we had never been to Harbor Island. We were pleasantly surprised. My family and I have been going to low country beaches for 10 years and this was the best stay we have had. The condo was clean and comfortable. The entire place is updated beautifully. The bunk beds in the bonus room were great for our boys. The host had everything in order and was very responsive. It is truly steps to the beach which is beautiful and perfect for kids. Wildlife is abundant too. I can not recommend this place enough and we will definantly be back.

• Abrupt Eviction & Misleading Amenities

  1/5

  I booked this condo believing my psychiatric service dog was welcome, since both Evolve and VRBO assured me when I called to confirm. I depended on renting a golf cart for my 78-year-old mother so she could have some independence, yet I discovered the owner forbids rentals when the golf cart company called to say the owner wouldn’t allow it—a policy not disclosed in the listing. After I raised this concern the owner responded with "the beach is close enough" shortly after I received a call from Evolve, suddenly given one hour to address a “dog problem,” despite legal protections and prior assurances from Evolve and VRBO, which felt retaliatory for suggesting she disclose her golf cart restriction for future guests. Security arrived within that hour to evict us at night. I reiterated that my dog was a service animal but was told the owner didn’t care, forcing me, my children, and my mother to pack hurriedly and leave our groceries behind. Although we received a partial refund for unused nights, it didn’t offset the stress or cost of relocating on short notice. Compounding the discomfort, the owner appeared to be monitoring us through a Ring doorbell and in person, I recognized her from a photo displayed in the condo’s materials.Moreover, the listing claimed there was a grill “on the porch,” it was not, another issue for anyone with mobility challenges. My suggestions to clarify these misleading details were dismissed. Location is beautiful, the experience not so much.

  Hi A M., we appreciate you sharing your feedback. The homeowner would like to clarify the following points regarding your stay:
  - We were unaware of any service dog prior to your arrival, as neither Evolve nor Vrbo informed us. Security was notified by a neighbor about a pet on the property, and when they inquired, you confirmed there was a dog and that you were planning to leave that night.
  - Our listing does not advertise a rental golf cart or a grill on the porch. Due to liability concerns, we do not permit golf cart rentals, and grills are not allowed on the building per local regulations. However, a charcoal grill is located nearby for guest use.
  - We did not monitor your stay. The Ring doorbell is a non-functional remnant from the previous owner, and while we own multiple condos in the area, any sightings of us were purely coincidental.
  We appreciate your feedback and will review the listing to ensure policies are as clear as possible for future guests.
