GBDewees Island is beautiful and… Dewees Island is beautiful and peaceful, love the place but the home we stayed at needs some serious maintenance. There were many issues such as the a/c going out Friday night and we had to deal with the heat and humidity for 2 days. We were offered to move to a new location but there were 8 women and lots of groceries to relocate. Icemaker did not work, ceiling fans did not work, lighting issues, serious problem with fire flaming up on grill, sewer gas odors, internet was not good........Disappointed in trip this time.

GBUnit 324 in COV Our unit #324 in COV was not clean or well kept. Several lights burnt out, dryer didn't work, freezer door was open when we arrived, sliding door in master bedroom had a broken lock, no lock on sliding door in living room, toilet dirty in one bathroom and toilet paper holders in 2 bathrooms were loose and falling off the wall. This was the 4th year we rented a unit at COV and it was one of the worst units we have used. Paid a premium price for a mediocre unit. The location is great.

GBDoesn’t compare well The condo was okay, but definitely not as nice as others we have rented in the same building. The kitchen was not well stocked. We were amazed at how much deep cleaning was needed: ceiling fans were very dirty, cabinets dusty inside, bathroom drawers gritty, etc. The main windows in the living room had no curtains. Every other condo we have rented in the same building has had these. We would not consider renting this unit again!

GBMy mother and I rented this home for… My mother and I rented this home for Spring Break. Although the home was beautiful, the cleanliness not so much. The day we checked in and went to go to bed that night, we discovered a raised brown stain (looked like feces) on the master bedroom sheets as well has hair all over pillow area of sheets. I did call the after hours # and they did suggest I look for spares in the closets, which I did find ones for the 2 other bedrooms but not the master. There was only a spread in master closet. She did offer to drive from 15 mins away but I decided to sleep in one of the twin beds because it was late and we had driven the whole day, until the following day. I did ask them to please replace all bedding on that bed the next day, but they only replaced the sheets and the put the spread that was on top of the feces looking sheets back on top of the clean sheets. Not one time did the rental office call to see if we needed anything or if everyone was taken care of. Their reply (Becca) was, we figured you would call us if something was not satisfactory. When I am paying $2400 for a 4 night stay, first of all I don't plan to see feces on the sheets and the head part of bed covered in hair......so at check out we brought this up again only to be told we would have to wait till the manager was back in the office and they would contact us......5 days have passed without so much of a call. They said they are very doubtful that what we saw on the sheets were feces and that there were plenty of sheets in unit for me to have put clean ones on myself. Finally, after reaching out again today, they are offering our cleaning fee back. I wanted to laugh, not only were they calling us a liar that what we seen on sheets was not feces.....regardless of what it was......I should not be changing stained sheets or waiting for someone to come and do, for a home that averaged to $600 a night with all fees. The customer service is laughable we found with Charleston Coasts Vacations/Dune Properties. We have rented several units from them over the years but after the unprofessionalism they showed this was out last!!! If you have never rented from them before they want you to strip the beds and put linens at the door when you check out as well as empty all garbage and take to road and run dishwasher.....what is the cleaning fee we paid at reservation for?.....the maids to leave the sheets on bed from the previous renter?.....never again. My profile pic is not feces according to Charleston Coast Vacations.

GBDissatisfied My family stayed in COB unit 322 the week of 10/6/18. Four of the eight patio chairs were not useable. The toilets in both master bedrooms were filthy. The metal bed in the master bedroom was not secured. Someone had attempted to repair with super glue! Fortunately, my son-in-law had tools and repaired it. Otherwise, it would have collapsed and could have caused serious injury. Lastly, the glass-top table on the patio was not secured and it almost fell on my 11 year old granddaughter. It is a very heavy top and could have resulted in a serious injury or death had we not caught it. We have stayed at COB for the last 15 years and never had such terrible conditions. We will not consider this unit again, nor recommend it to others. Also, as property managers, there is an expectation that you ensure that the rental units are in safe condition. This certainly had a negative impact on our family vacation.
