We had a great stay on Bald Head Island! The location was excellent, the home was clean and nicely decorated, and the beds were very comfortable. There was plenty of room for the four of us and our dog, making it a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We’d definitely recommend it and would happily stay here again!

We’ve stayed in other villas and Villa 30 is definitely an upgraded property. Two specific aspects really added to our positive experience, first the loft has a shower added making it a real 3rd bedroom. Second, the outside space below the deck is lovely, with an expanded deck, large sofa swing and Adirondack chairs. We spent a lot of time here and on other properties this space was an afterthought and not enjoyable to use. Especially with the upper deck getting so much sun, it was a positive to have pleasant outdoor space that was shaded. I agree with other comments that the hosts were very communicative and easy to get in touch with. This is a great option if you are considering the Villas!

Beautiful property, with an amazing view all around. From the booking process, to check-in, during the stay, through check-out, the host was very helpful and informative. They made the process so easy to navigate. The home was very clean and all amenities you would need were provided. The 2 golf carts were an added plus and worked out well. We will be returning!

There were 4 of us for 4 days. The weather didn’t cooperate as expected, however the island did not disappoint. The golf carts were great for exploring the island. Lots of walking & hiking was done instead of beach time. Your home had all necessities, was bright & cheery & excellent contact with host. All questions answered in timely manner. We were appreciative of the cart for check out as well. Definitely a place for a repeat! Thank you Edie & Katie!
