Hiller Villa

We loved this home, it’s proximity to the beach, the beautiful community and the rental company with quick responses when we had a question, made our vacation an amazingly relaxing week away from home. The home was clean and tidy, super spacious and well stocked kitchen helped when cooking meals at the home. We will DEFINITELY be staying again.

Location was great, not crowded at all at the beach. House is a little dated but comfortable enough for our group of 12.

This is our 5th year to stay at Hiller Villa and we have enjoyed each year here. Pawleys is a special place for our family and this rental property is perfect for our needs. A very comfortable home, beautiful but not too fancy-in my opinion a beach house should not be so fancy that a person can’t relax- but has all the amenities we are looking for. Thank you for adding more rocking chairs this year. Rocking is an important part of our vacation! We hope to stay here for the indefinite future. The upstairs is great for children and they like having their own space. So do their parents and grandparents!

Tidelife was so easy to deal with in terms of communication & quick response. They want the rental experience to be extremely positive & always appreciate feedback from guests. I left a list w/ management of items that needed to be addressed & feel confident that they will handle them.

Manager's Response

There was no grill, and the oven did not work properly it took forever to bake or broil. The house was not in great shape it needed attention but the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the view and location but it needs work for the price we paid.

Manager's Response

Hiller Villa is a wonderful house. It is large and comfy with plenty of room for the whole family. This house is nothing fancy, but definitely feels like home. We come back year after year. It has a reasonably well stocked kitchen, as well as televisions in every room. Beds are very comfy. You just can't beat the sound and view of the ocean at this house. Tidelife Vacation Rentals is absolutely the best place to work with on any rental. They actually care about their customers and if there is an issue, they are quick to respond and help. We highly recommend Hiller Villa and Tidelife.

We enjoy coming to Hiller Villa- the view is beautiful nd we love the house!

Manager's Response

We so enjoyed our family get-away at Hiller Villa! The house is in the perfect location, with creek and ocean views! The family room is suited for plenty of people, and the couch is the best! The back screened in porch is a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffee and afternoon drinks! The kitchen is well equipped. The bedrooms are comfortable and have plenty of closet space. Enjoyed all the family pictures and the framed history of the house. Loved our stay and will definitely be back!

Manager's Response

Love the place. Our group has rented it numerous times. House is lovely and in great shape.Super convenient to the mainland/stores. Lagoon is right across the street to accommodate those who like to kayak, etc.

Manager's Response

This was our 4th year to rent Hiller Villa and we have loved staying here each year. The house is spacious and comfortable, perfect for families to relax. Our grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed the upstairs this summer! Our family has been coming to Pawleys for over 65 years and the island is a part of our souls. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Was a great house for family vacation. Plenty of room to separate yet good space to gather.

Manager's Response

The house was a good beach house, older and spacious. We enjoyed the fewer people on the beach as a result of the creek on the back side of the house. When we booked the house, a grill was listed as an amenity, however, there was not one, and we had to purchase one since we love to cook out when our family is together. We were also told we had creek access for fishing and boating but there is no creek access at this house, which was a huge disappointment. The only other negative was that there was pet hair everywhere in the house, although it is listed as a “no pet” rental. Perhaps the owners have pets and had been there previously. But pet hair was in one of the beds and on the floors. Two of our family members are allergic to pet hair. The house just needs to be cleaned more carefully if pet hair is noticed.
Our family enjoyed our week very much. We will likely be there next year, if available, if we can be assured of the lack of pet hair. We got over our disappointment of no creek access, although we would love to have a dock.

House was very comfortable for the 12 of us. We have stayed in this house for several years now & would highly recommend it.

Manager's Response

We have chosen Hiller Villa again for our winter stay in Pawleys Island because it feels like home. There is nothing luxurious here, but the location is perfect and the house is roomy, yet cozy. Beds are comfy, as is most everything. Tidelife Vacation Rentals is the best to work with. Whatever it is, whatever you need, they are on top of it. Highly recommend.

Manager's Response

Fantastic time at Hiller Villa! Was pleasantly surprised with the amount of space at the house. Can't beat the back deck and being steps from the beach. Thank you for the awesome house!

Manager's Response

This is our 12 year staying at Hiller Viller ll, we feel like its our home away from home. Last year we went though a Hurricane in this house. After Covid it was so nice to see our families.

Manager's Response

Hiller Villa was a wonderful spot for our family vacation -- three couples and a three-year-old. We loved the layout of the house and the proximity to the beach. The few repairs that were needed were taken care of very promptly and easily. It's clear the house is well-loved and we all felt right at home!

Manager's Response

We are snow birds and loved staying in this beach front home from Jan thru March 2020. Comfy and the location is amazing. Tidelife is by far the best company to work with to find just what you need. We travel with our dogs so it's not always easy to find a great place that will allow them. Tidelife always comes through for us. This is our 3rd year renting with them.

We are snow birds so we stayed at Hiller Villa for 3 months over the winter. It is amazing to wake up to the sound and sight of the ocean. This house is perfect for us. Each bedroom has its own bathroom making it easy for our family to come and visit. The house is a typical beach house, dated but very comfortable. Being here has made us fall in love with Pawleys Island. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

This is our 3rd time to Pawleys Island and this is by far our favorite house. It is well laid out, clean and comfortable. Beds are comfy. We are snow birds here for the winter months so the beach is quiet. Tidelife is wonderful as well. No matter what, they are there to help.

Everything was perfect. Rented for a long weekend in Oct 2020. Nice size kitchen and living room. Nice porch Oceanside. TideLife was very attentative and accommodating of our needs.

Manager's Response

Hiller Villa is a very comfortable spacious house to stay in. We had 12 family members and not once did it feel crowded. The screen porch is the gem of the house.

Manager's Response

We went though a Hurricane which was very interesting. So many things went on that week. The family really enjoy our stay. Our family has been coming down to Pawleys Island for over 41 years. The last plus 10 @ Hiller Viller II

Manager's Response

This was our first time with Hurricane winds!!! We had the BEST WEEK... we had 40 plus family at the beach this year. Our house is just perfect for our family of 10, this is our 41 year at Pawleys Island. The last 11 years at Hiller Villa II, It's a wonderful family home. We have really enjoyed our time here with family, we have come from 4 difference states. Its a great way to have a family reunion. The beach was so different this year, but wonderful. Because of COVID-19, we didn't eat out but cooked all of our meals in the house with everyone taking turns to help...Can't wait to come back next year.....

Our vacation rental experience was great!! We love the house and location. The house was comfortable and well kept up. We will rent there for as long as the owner allows. BTW I am Kathryn Zicarelli from Birmingham, Ala, not Kathryn Z from Winfield, WV

this home was perfect for our large family

This is going to be a weird review because we were unable to make our trip because of Hurricane Dorian. But, I just had to tell you how pleasant my experience with Tidelife was! Once we knew the hurricane was maybe coming our way, Derek and Suzanne were great to work with. The hurricane was coming so slowly, they put up with all my panicked calls and emails and made the fact that we eventually had to cancel our vacation as easy as it can be. Yes, the location and house is very important. And, we stayed in that house last year so we already knew it was the perfect house for us. But, just as important - you want to work with a rental company that is a pleasure to deal with, even in stressful times. And, that is what we got with Tidelife!

Manager's Response

The Hiller Villa was just what we needed and we couldn't have been more comfortable with the room set up and layout of common areas. We planned a Pawley's vacation for our friend's 50th birthday at our favorite beach destination, rented through another company, and then came the hurricane that washed 4 feet of sand over the south end. We tried repeatedly, without success, to get information about the house we'd reserved, and in the end we decided to forge ahead to the island to check things out. Two of our group met Max from Tide Life, hard at work clearing properties for owners and vacationers. He let us know about available houses and where to find the Tide Life office where we met Suzanne. She was amazing! She found us a great beach house (the Hiller Villa), gave us a significant discount (rather than have the house sit empty), and got the property ready for us the minute they started allowing people onto the south end. The staff at Tide Life were professional, responsive, accommodating, and understanding every step of the way!

We visited in August of this year and enjoyed our stay, location is fantastic.

For the last 10 years we have rented "Hiller Villa II" We love this house, they have made some great improvements. We feel right at home, the kids think that this is our home away from home. We have been coming to Pawleys Island for over 40 years now. This is by far the best property we have rented. Our Whole family makes plans around coming down, we have over 40 people that meet here each year. This house just right for our 12!!! We have been very happy here with lots of great memories. Thanks. We really enjoy this house...Everyone can't wait to come back next year..

Manager's Response

We had a wonderful time and the house was great. It is set up for families with comfortablebedrooms downstairs and lots of twin and day beds upstairs for the kids. It’s right on the beach with s great view. The porches are fabulous. We will definitely be back next year!! Love the enormous sectional sofa in the den! The only Sheraton I would make is to add lots of rocking chairs for the screened porch. Maybe even get rid of the screen porch furniture and just have rockin chairs☺️. Just s suggestion though. I love rocking on the porch. Thanks for a wonderful week.

Uncomfortable beds, kitchen utensils in need of cleaning , overall maintenance needed throughout the house

We had a blast here over a long weekend. Perfect beach access, clean and fun!

Manager's Response

Our family had the most enjoyable time staying at the Hiller Villa. The house had the perfect layout for our adult children and our grandchildren. Being able to walk out the door and be on the beach was wonderful. The management was very helpful and friendly. We would definitely like to stay here again one day.

Our Tidelife vacation at Pawley’s Island was simply amazing. The Tidelife staff did so very many things to ensure that our family had the most special Christmas ever. From our first e-mail inquiry through checkout Tidelife took care of us like family. The house was amazing with beautiful views and the family living and dining spaces were wonderful. You could see and hear the ocean all over the house. The home was decorated with coastal artwork and beautiful photos providing true coastal charm. Everything was cheerful, warm and comfortable. Tidelife had a beautiful Christmas tree in the house for our family and tons of fantastic presents under the tree for our children. This very thoughtful surprise truly overwhelmed us. Tidelife took care of every detail possible to give us the ultimate family holiday vacation. Tidelife’s dedication to customer service is rare and above anything I have ever experienced. We will enjoy memories of our stay at Hiller Villa forever. Thank you, Tidelife. Each member of our family looks forward to us calling you soon to set up another fantastic vacation. Keep up the incredible work!

Beautiful home with amazing views. Spacious. We enjoyed the screened in porch while watching the sunrise and sunset. Highly recommend this home. The only negative thing I would say it that most of the beds are extremely soft & our group didn’t find them to be comfortable.

House in good location, good floor plan layout. Only criticism is in maintenance. House in desperate need of small repairs, a little bit of time and money would go a long way making this a desirable beach location. Overall liked house however next year we will stay at another location. We don’t want to take a chance that the house will be even more run down than it is now.

This is a great location with beautiful views. Direct access to the beach with very little foot traffic on the beach. The home itself is in need of some minor repairs but overall a beautiful place!! Thank you for an amazing weekend!

We have really enjoyed this home. They make us feel like it's our home away from home!!! We have celebrated 50th wedding anniversary , 95th Birthday party, and so many more things . 2 houses down we have more of our family staying here as well!!Beautiful place for our family reunion. Thank you so much for opening up your home for all of us.

The house was in need of a lot of maintenance - screen door closers, flaking paint on banisters, upholstery fabric stained, etc. But it was well-located and worked out OK for us.

Tidelife Realty was very easy to work with and responded immediately to all concerns that I had regarding this property.

Susanne with Tidelife Rentals was fantastic. The most accommodating agent Ive ever had! The Hiller Villa did not disappoint either. It had beautiful & updated decor. It exceeded our expectations & was perfect for our trip. Loved the screened porch with its view. Comfy beds, very clean, spacious & inviting! We plan on returning in December!
