About this property

End Unit#15/ Wi-Fi, Walk to Beach/Pool/Tennis/Pball/BikePath/ 2 B/2.5 Ba + Loft,

We invite you to stay awhile in our villa for six, at the Ocean Gate Villas complex of South Forest Beach.
“Beauty and the Beach” (Unit 15) is a true, private, end unit, with a side yard, large deck and on the edge of the bicycle path. We are a five-minute walk to the most beautiful beach by way of a wooded, beach path. This expansive and uncrowded beach area is nestled on the edge of Sea Pines with private homes, not hotels. From our villa, by foot or by pedal, we are near beach-side grilles and sixty restaurants within a three-mile radius. Coligny Plaza, the downtown area, is less than two miles away.
Additionally, our villa is just steps to the pickleball and tennis court, a basketball hoop and the swimming pool. It is such a convenience enjoying these amenities in YOUR own backyard. Plus, this small, friendly establishment is uncrowded, rarely busy, and is not a noisy one.
As our name implies, this is a beautiful place and beach. Our villa is bright, light and uncluttered. You’ll appreciate the breathtaking Live Oak trees dripping in Spanish Moss as well as the (official state tree) Palmetto Palms. The living room furniture is comfortable with a Smart HD TV perched upon the marble-top console. You’ll find DVD’s for both TV's on the main level and upstairs. Internet and cable TV are provided free of charge. The bar chairs and the high-top table are fun for gaming, socializing, and dining. Inside the teal cabinet, you’ll discover glass (and plasticware) for beer, wine and margaritas. A “Ninja” blender and a “Bullet” mixer for making smoothies or cocktails, and glass pitchers or a large thermos are provided to contain your creations. The kitchen is fully stocked with glassware, dishware, plastic containers, baking accessories, quality pots and pans and we’ve included a spice carousel. Enjoy brewed coffee (Keurig) or tea at the kitchen table with a view of greenery.
Additionally, on the main level, there’s a half bathroom with a vanity cabinet and a new, full size, washer and dryer in the laundry room. There you’ll find a basket of beach towels for your use. Feel free to make use of the beach chairs, and the boogie board for the young (or young at heart).
Upstairs, enter the Loft with a single, pull-out, sofa bed and an extra-large, uncovered, picture window. Beautiful sun rays provide light to both the upstairs and the main level. This area has two, swivel chairs, a contemporary, multi-height desk and a DVD player.
In the Primary bedroom relax on the comfy Queen-sized bed and enjoy the Smart HD TV. This bedroom has plenty of storage space and has its’ own 3-piece bathroom (tub and shower, sink, commode) with vanity. Right next door is the Guest Bedroom accommodating four: a bunk bed with a single (twin) on top and a double (full sized) bed on bottom. Plus, there is a stand alone single (twin) bed in the room and plenty of storage. This room also has its’ own 3-piece bathroom and vanity.
At dusk, perhaps while you are grilling shrimp on the “barbe”, you may encounter a deer or two, if you’re very still. While relaxing on the deck, you are likely to hear the Atlantic waves when the breeze is in your direction.
A haven to Chill, or be as Adventurous as you like. HHI, is the ticket offering a vast array of activities. Come, stay awhile at “Beauty and the Beach”.
Two private designated, parking spaces directly in front of the unit.

Great Stay

We had not thought of HHI (fires in Myrtle Beach sent us further south) but we’re happy to find this unit several days before arrival. Enjoyed the area and place. Clean and great details left by owner. Walk to beach; washed up jellyfish were not a fav; good thing it was too cold to dive in ocean; would avoid due to these creatures . Cool how ppl rode bikes on beach Golf at Old South Golf Links in Bluffton. Would rent again if visiting area.

Great place, close to the beach

Great experience. Clean place. Very comfortable beds! Small T.V.:(! Will definitely revisit. That said, the pool does need attention--this is our third year here and it always needs to be vacuumed and the skimmers don't work. The tennis court is old and worn.

Relaxing Vacation

My family had a great time at this property. It was conveniently located between sea pines and Coligny plaza. There was very little car traffic in the area leaving the short walk to the beach a breeze, even with small kids. Both the walk to the beach and the property were nice and shaded. The community pool was great. The unit was exactly as advertised, fitting our family of 4 very comfortably.

Family Vacation

Clean property. Comfortable beds. Pool was on the small side but never overly crowded. Walk to the beach is more pleasant that other locations at which I’ve stayed as it wasn’t in direct sun until in sight of the beach. Owner responsive to a couple questions that came up during the stay. We visit HHI every summer, and this is a convenient location. It’s nice to be able to park your car right at the entrance to the condo. The only negative is that lighting in the bathrooms isn’t the greatest for makeup application. However, that would not affect my desire to stay here again.

Lived up to the name!

Beauty and the Beach lived up to its name. It was a very nice stay. Our family had everything we needed and enjoyed our time in the villa and the close access to areas on the island that we were interested in. When we needed a break from the beach, we really enjoyed the amenities right outside the door (pool, tennis/pickle ball, bball, and relaxing on deck). All in all, it was enjoyable and comfortable. Lastly, great instructional detail that made it easy.

What a wonderful stay

The home was lovely. All the essentials needed were provided. The home was comfortable, cozy, and well decorated. There was plenty of space for two parents and two older kids to have their own space. The hosts were kind and accommodating, and when we had a bit of trouble with the electronic door lock, the hosts were right there, remotely, to assist. Beach is a 7 min walk on a perfect bike path away. So grateful to our hosts for offering their home, and would stay again anytime.

Spring Break

Enjoyed our stay in Hilton Head. The condo had everything we needed and was located in a quiet area of the island. We walked to the beach and it was very relaxing and very few people. Loved listening to the ocean and people/animal watching.The people in the complex were very friendly. There are a lot of great shop’s nearby and yummy restaurants too. I would recommend going to Sea Pines and Bluffton which are very close. We took a day trip to Savannah which was less than an hour away. We would enjoy staying here again.

We had a terrific stay at this well-equipped, clean, wonderfully located condo. the complex is beautiful, quiet, and a five-minute walk along a beautiful path through the trees to the beach. The hosts were uber communicative throughout our visit, although, to be honest, with such a nicely prepared place, there wasn't much need to communicate beyond thanking them for a wonderful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Kim and Kevin

Host profile image
We are world travelers but, have returned to the most beautifully-natural island and beach for the past 30 years. We adore time with our family on the nearly private beach relaxing, walking, playing in the waves, and bike riding on this 12-mile, hard packed, white sand beach. We love the outdoors especially here where we can play at so many activities.

Why they chose this property

For the third year in a row, HHI, SC was voted the best island in the continental US by Travel and Leisure readers in the World's Best Awards (July 10, 2018).
For us the island is unique in: the 7 foot tides twice a day, dolphins, low country seafood and restaurants, southern hospitality, gorgeous Live Oak trees and Spanish moss, 200 miles of bicycle paths, bird watching, golf (galore), tennis, boating, kayaking, kiting, kite surfing, great shopping, outlet shops, sand volleyball, fishing, deep-sea fishing, fine-dining, nature reserve hiking, equestrian, art, you name it, it's here (except the snow sports)!
Accessibility to shops/eateries by bike. To historic Savannah and Beaufort they're just a short car ride away. Boat excursions to Savannah and Daufuskie Island are available, as well as dinner cruises, dolphin watching, deep sea fishing, and/or sail on the Stars & Stripes.

What makes this property unique

We love our 2-storey, "Beauty and the Beach" villa which is so close to the beach by foot and so near the amenities by bicycle. Sea Pines on a private beach is our neighbor as well as the public Coligny area considered the "downtown". "Beauty" is a true end unit, with a three-sided, green view including the usually available, tennis and pickle ball court. We are a "semi-detached" (duplex) house, ground floor so, no need to wait in a lobby for an elevator when you return from the beach, pool or grocery shopping. The pool is steps away and as this complex is small, it's not crowded. "Beauty" has large windows enabling the sun to shine on through, creating a bright and cheery ambiance. Do sit outside on the deck at night, gaze at the multitude of stars and the moon while listening to the Atlantic waves. If you're feeling fatigued from a day at the beach, toss steak and potatoes, mushrooms and onions on the grill while enjoying a beverage, enjoy your family meal inside, draw the drapes, relax and put your feet up in style and comfort, watch a good movie or play a game. We've decorated with Sea and Life in mind and, also with "beachy" colors. You'll find all creature comforts from sofas to hot baths or cool showers, to comfy beds. We've also provided a mobile, cooling, upright fan and a mobile, heat fan for extra comfort in addition to ceiling fans, central heat and air conditioning.
