About this property

Charming and Bright Updated Villa, 2 minutes to the beach w/pool view Top Floor

This charming villa has been updated recently: new paint, furniture, master bathroom with large walk-in travertine shower, and a 55" Smart 4K UHD TV with Netflix subscription and still a 2 minute walk to the beach!

See complete list of updates below.

When you arrive at the villa you immediately feel like you are in a charming beach cottage with the new beadboard ceilings, crown molding and shaker style kitchen. This very bright villa is located in the popular complex within Palmetto Dunes called The Moorings. You can't get closer to the best beach in Hilton Head without paying ocean front prices. Within The Moorings Unit #31/32 you will be located in a quiet section on the end with a nice view of the landscape, directly adjacent to the amenities you will find at The Hilton. It is a simple walk to the beach and you will not need to cross or walk down any busy streets. A few steps through the oceanfront Beach Villa complex and your feet are in the sand! This comes in handy when you want to come back home during the day for a snack or break from the sun.

The layout of the villa offers a lot of privacy having the guest bedroom located off the entry way and the 2nd bedroom adjacent to the living room. Each bedroom has it own en suite bathroom. There is a bonus 3rd full bath located in the foyer which also contains the washer and dryer. This is convenient for guests who use the pullout sofa because they can have their own full bathroom as well.

The living room and bedrooms all have HDTV flat screen TVs and there is a DVR in the living room with access to Netflix. You can record your favorite shows to watch while relaxing after a fun day in the sun!

There are 2 decks located off the living room which can be accessed from each bedroom as well. One of the decks offers a view of the pool so you can check up on your kids swimming while you make dinner in the well-equipped kitchen. The other deck is very private, if you prefer to just relax with a good book and a glass of wine. Because this is a second floor unit the decks are not covered, which bring a lot of natural light into the unit. New patio furniture has been purchased with a table and chairs with cushions and an umbrella. The perfect place for a nice breakfast or dinner al fresco!

The villa is located within the gated community of Palmetto Dunes which is home to 3 world-class golf courses (Robert Trent Jones, Arthur Hills and George Fazio) and the award-winning Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center. You can walk over to the Outfitters to rent your bikes, kayaks, fishing gear or canoes to use through the 11 mile lagoon.

Biking is very popular in Hilton Head because of the numerous miles of biking paths and wide beaches with packed sand. You can also walk to the General Store to get your daily newspaper and a delicious breakfast sandwich. They offer some grocery selections and convenience foods as well as beer, wine, spirits, etc. Shelter Cove Marina is only a mile away and an easy bike ride. Fireworks are shown every Tuesday night during the summer months where you will also find live entertainment. The Dunes Buggy free shuttle is also available to take you to the shopping or entertainment in Shelter Cove during the busier season.

With this villa being centrally located on the island you can quickly access all of the local attractions. Stopping by the Dunes House restaurant on your way home from the beach for a cold beer, burger or fish tacos will be the perfect end to your day. The convenience of everything will make your vacation that much more relaxing.

Very nice condo. Fully equipped clean and comfortable. Very close to the beach and beach bar. Awesome beach. Close to amenities and restaurants. Nice neighbours, good parking and Palmetto Dunes is a very nice and well maintained resort. This is our 4 th stay in this resort, second at the Moorings and would be very happy to come back. Minor inconvenience with sliding shower doors in main bathroom. Otherwise excellent accommodation. Thank you so much for a wonderful beach vacation.

Readers, I’m not sure what you look for in a villa when you want to get away from it all. I look for these things: -location -dog friendly -outdoor space with comfy furniture -well stocked kitchen -comfortable beds and pillows -cleanliness This villa had it all!

This is the second time we have stayed at this property. It continues to be clean, well maintained and extremely convenient to everything in Palmetto Dunes. The owners were very responsive to questions, and check in/out processes were seamless. Although this is a dog friendly unit (we did not have a pup with us this time), the unit was free of any evidence of dog hair, etc. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

About the host

Hosted by David and Laura Bumby

Host profile image
Laura was born on Hilton Head and raised on the sandy beaches and salty air. As career and life guided her away from the Lowcountry, her family remained on the Island and she kept her ties to this special place.

As luck would have it on the other side of the Atlantic was David, who was also raised on sand and salty air, though on the coast of England.

The "stars aligned" as they say, and we were married on the beach not far from our villa. After starting a family of our own, we realized that Hilton Head was a very special place for both of us, and that we wanted to have a place of our own, close to our family on the island, and for our small family to begin to make memories.

Why they chose this property

The Moorings is a special location, steps from the ocean, close to everything that Palmetto Dunes has to offer, yet this top floor unit is private and makes you feel at home.

This truly is a beach villa. You can brew a cup of coffee and take a stroll on the beach before breakfast, or spend the day at the beach and come back to the villa to grab snacks or make a quick lunch. On the days where you want to explore, walk across the street to the General Store, or the tennis courts, play a round of golf, or book a kayak tour in the Shelter Cove Marina!

For us Palmetto Dunes has a great lifestyle, that allows you to walk and bike to so many places. It is also centrally located so that you can easily explore the rest of the island without much of a drive at all!

What makes this property unique

This villa has such a great layout - top floor, pool view, yet very private. The floor plan is great for families as the bedrooms are separated, yet everyone can come together easily in the living room.

The location is also hard to beat! Palmetto Dunes (the community where the villa is located) has so many wonderful amenities. For starters, the Dunes House is only steps away and is a great place to grab a bite to eat, all while sitting on the beach and looking out at the ocean! You can play golf, tennis, ride your bikes around the many bike paths, kayak the 11 mile lagoon system, fish, paddle board, and more all from within Palmetto Dunes.
