Great Place to Vacation

Absolutely a wonderful place to vacation. Marc and Paul, the owners/manager were wonderful. The view of the ocean and beach is fantastic. The pool was oversized and the kids were always wanting to swim.

Awesome!

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay at 8 Wanderer. The layout of the home, amenities, and location were outstanding and made for a wonderful family vacation. Marc, Paul, and staff made sure we had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our time at the beach. We would not hesitate to rent from them again.

Perfect Family Getaway!

This is an awesome house and you cannot beat the pool deck! The owner and the manager were very responsive and have thought of everything that a typical family would need, including bikes and beach towels! The kitchen is well stocked with supplies and everything else you can imagine! All you need to provide is the food. Highly recommend!

Fun Property

This was a fantastic rental for our needs. The wide lot is unique to the area which allows for a much larger pool than all of our neighbors! The provided toys, bikes, and kitchenware was a fantastic perk. The hosts were accommodating and very attentive. Would highly recommend and is nice for two family's looking to stay together.

Great location

House was great for multiple families and range of ages (5 to 73). Shortest walk to beach we have had in rental house on HHI. Mark/Dave were great about making sure we had everything we needed (had beach towels on day of arrival so we could use pool/beach while cleaning finished - this was an awesome perk). Also had a firepit and provided firewood. Heated the pool and was well worth it as all enjoyed it the entire week.

Hesitant Husband !

My husband had pretrip doubts about a beach front home in Hilton Head for our family of nine. In his words… “Too expensive and I don’t play golf”. WOW, one step onto the back deck and he changed his mind. The view alone is fabulous and our entire group spent a full week Swimming (pool and ocean), biking, exploring and reconnecting. We can’t wait to return !!

BEDBUGS - beware

The master bedroom had bedbugs. MANY bedbugs. They had been there some time to build up that size colony. We discovered the bites AFTER having slept there. My daughter has scars on her body from bedbug bites. Her hands were so swollen she missed work after we got back. 4 families had monetary, physical, mental and emotional consequences of exposure to a problem in this home. Homeowner was asked to refund our money based on everything we went through after this happened, but felt he did enough in having the fumigator take all the furniture out of the room in question and return it the next day after they debugged it. He gave us a small amount of money while we were there to buy clothes to wear (since they had to confiscate all the ones in that room), dog supplies and personal belongings to replace what they could not spray and to use while all our stuff was at exterminator and felt that was enough to make up for it. He refuses our requests for a refund even though VBRO has suggested he give us a refund. I sent him pictures of the bites that more than one person in our family were suffering from even long after we returned home. I explained we could not treat certain things and had to pay more money to replace them after coming home. He doesn't care one bit, his wallet is his decision maker and he doesn't want to lose money on the week no matter what we went through. BUYER BEWARE.

Amazing Vacation House

This property was perfect for our group of 4 adults, 3 teens, and 2 kids. The large pool was very nice. The balconies provided amazing views and great gathering spots. Added touches like the water dispenser, lots of beach towels and chairs, and 2 washer/dryers were much appreciated. The property manager and owner were great.

Family vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at 8 Wanderer and have booked to come back again! The weather was not perfect, but this spacious home, with its comfortable beds, and ocean views made up for this! As a large family with young adults and teenagers, there was plenty of space for everyone. We enjoyed the pool table, hot tub, fire pit, bikes, as well as the large family room and screened in porch. The property was extremely well stocked with all the necessities - many pots and pans/coffee makers/spices/garbage bags/cleaning wipes/paper towels/paper plates etc. etc. Marc and Paul made sure we knew they were available for anything, and popped by to check in person that we were settled. It was comforting to know that they were just a call/text away when we had any questions. The only possible thing that could be improved would be replacing a couple of well used items that are beginning to show their age. We had a wonderful, relaxing family vacation at this property and are looking forward to returning soon!

Great experience

We had a great weeklong stay at 8 Wanderer. The hosts were very responsive and have thought of all the things! Inside, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well-stocked with utensils, cookware, and spices. The pool is spacious and very nice and there are plenty of chairs and toys/games for the beach. Overall, we had an excellent stay and would definitely come back in the future.

Family Vacation

We had a great family vacation in this home. Almost everything you could need is provided. It was a great place for everyone to have their own space. The older kids enjoyed the pool table and everyone enjoyed the extra large pool. There were lots of pool toys and plenty of beach towels were provided. We would highly recommend this vacation home!

Another Spectacular Stay

We were repeat visitors to this home and I must say the second time was even better than the first. Marc and Paul treat their guests like family and everything gets taken care of immediately. A new toaster was requested and we had it within hours. The Low Country Boil was one of the highlights of the trip with my family. My new favorite perch in the house is off the upstairs master where I spent hours observing the dolphin and the birds. Hilton Head has so much to offer and 8 Wanderer Lane is the perfect home base. Thank you again for being such fabulous hosts.

Awesome Amenities right on the beach!

The house was well equipped for babies and toddlers items needed! (2Pack-N-Plays, baby bathtub and 2 high chairs) There were several baby gates, but a few were broken. Lots of baby gates needed due to a lot of stairs in the house. The manager and the owner checked in on us and took great care for us to have a great week. Lots of bikes available and other useful amenities! It’s a great find!!

This home is perfect for either a large family or several couples

We had 8 Adults and 6 children(under4) for the week. The home’s bedrooms are separated so each room has privacy from the other bedrooms. The living area is large easily accommodating a large group. The kitchen is nice and having to full size refrigerators was perfect. The home has windows galore all with a view of the ocean and outdoor pool. There is a screened porch. a wrap around the rear outdoor deck allows for the kids to play safely as it is 1 floor up from the pool deck. There is an upper deck off one of the master bedrooms which provides a great view above the dunes and the ocean. The beach is less than 50yds and just an easy walk over the dunes. The beach is not crowded as the house is not close to Coligny or the Shipyard beach access. Dave Bauman The owner and his manager are wonderful to work with and we’re available for any questions. The house is 1.2 miles from Coligny’s shops and restaurants and 1.5 miles from the “Sandbox” children’s center and a great play park. It is a perfect setting for a great week.

Wow- absolutely awesome!

Plenty of room for all 9 (our five adult children, son-in-law and granddaughter) of us! Beautiful view of the ocean from nearly every room- two refrigerator/freezers and washer/dryers just made it all run smoothly - loved the option of pool and beach- having bikes, beach chairs, beach towels provided was an added ease to moving into vacation mode. Truly everything I could have hoped our family vacation could be! Paul was just a phone call away if we had any questions or concerns- awesome hospitality- quickly became our home away from home☀️

Amazing Vacation

This was our family’s first time visiting Hilton Head and we had an absolutely amazing stay at this property. The location can not be beat! Staying right on the beach was a dream. The views were gorgeous and spending hours relaxing on the screened in porch with views of the ocean was perfect. We definitely utilized all the house had to offer from the large living area to the pool table to the bikes. Paul went above and beyond, providing us with information about fishing spots and great restaurants as well as securing passes to fish in certain areas. If you have the opportunity we definitely recommend taking him up on his offer to prepare a low-country boil! It was such a fun and delicious experience. Marc, the owner of the property, checked in on us at the beginning of our stay to make sure we were comfortable and followed up on our last day as well. This trip was planned last minute since our normal vacation spot was not available and we were NOT disappointed. The trip was so successful that we are already considering our return visit next year!

Perfect!

This is our second annual girl's trip at this property and can't say enough great things about the hosts Marc and Paul and the house. Location is perfect, has something for everyone whether it's going to the beach (chairs provided btw....), lounging by or in the pool or just finding a quiet spot to read a book, this has it. We heated the pool this time around and it was worth every penny - was perfect temperature! Long list of amenities provided so you really don't have to worry about anything at all. Marc and Paul were fabulous hosts and were available for any and all things if needed. We are looking forward to returning for our next trip! ~Carrie E

Great beach vacation

After decades of vacationing on Florida's gulf coast, we chose Hilton Head Island for this year's family beach trip.So glad we did! Arriving at the house which is located in a quiet residential area made us feel instantly relaxed. This beach front home is perfectly located to nearby shopping, restaurants and other amenities. The owner,Marc,has thought of everything to make one's stay more relaxing and enjoyable. He has carefully stocked necessities for the kitchen, baths and provided beach towels and beach set ups.We especially enjoyed the large adjustable pool side umbrella. The house is spacious and comfortably accommodated our group of 6 adults and 5 young children. A screen porch and upper level balcony got a lot of use. But what truly made this a great experience was the friendliness and attentiveness of Marc and his property manager, Paul.We arrived to find a bottle of wine, fresh baked goods and chocolates. Paul personally greeted us to help orient us to the property and answer any questions. Best of all we had Paul prepare us a low country boil that was both delicious and great fun. Our family agreed hands down that this was our best beach vacation ever and all want to return to this same house-which we have booked for 2023 and 2024. Thanks again Marc for sharing your beautiful home and being so welcoming. (Uncle!) Paul you were the best and we hope you'll do another cook out for us next year. Joe and Toni C.

Amazing property!

Our family had the most amazing stay this past week!! The house was absolutely gorgeous and had all the little things that made our stay so much more convenient. The backyard was easily the best part, giant pool, great jacuzzi, hammock and seating everywhere. The shortest walk to the beach which was so clean and very private! Everything we needed was there, we barely left the property all week. This place exceeded our expectations and we can’t wait to come back!!

Perfect week!

Mark and Paul are the most attentive property owner/managers! Everything was absolutely wonderful, and they checked in periodically to make sure we were doing alright. The proximity to the beach was awesome, and the amenities/supplies were so helpful! We enjoyed everything this property had to offer, and had the best week with family. The views inside and out were incredible, we had a low-country boil at the house and it was fabulous, we swam in the pool and sat in the hot tub almost everyday, and we rode the bikes on the beach. Most importantly, we were able to bring our dogs which is key for us. We can’t wait to book again for 2024, since 2023 is fully booked already!
