About this property

Casually Elegant Villa: Patio for Relaxing; Short Walk to Beach; on Golf Course

The perfect vacation home for golfers, beach enthusiasts, tennis players, cyclists, and bird watchers, our Fairway Lane Villa, which we call 'Sea Whisper,' is located in the 8th row, only a 5 minute walk to a spectacular beach stretching over six miles. BEACH ACCESS: Sea Whisper provides beach access without the need to hunt for parking or to take a trolley! New parking regulations preclude guests from parking at the Beach Club; rather, they must park in designated lots and take a trolley (no parking allowed on the streets). From Sea Whisper, guests can stroll past lovely homes on a dedicated beach path to the ocean without the need to drive.

Inside Sea Whisper, a wall of glass across the back affords views of wildlife and golfers (who hit away from the Villa) with only distant glimpses of other homes--a very private and tranquil setting. Our one story Villa features an open concept living room (with new furniture) and dining area, two master bedrooms (one with a new king bed and the other with a queen bed -- both have an en suite bathroom) and a Carolina room. The Carolina room with its three sides of glass provides a comfortable seating area for reading, watching golfers tee off on the 4th hole of the "Atlantic Dunes Course by Davis Love III" (formerly the "Ocean Course") and observing the herons that frequent the lagoon. Breakfast or evening snacks can be enjoyed on the dining table in this room.

Relaxing on the patio, guests can barbecue on the gas grill and dine outside on the outdoor table with its umbrella or enjoy a drink while sitting in the 3 rocking chairs. We expanded the patio for a more spacious area. For those who prefer cooking inside, the open kitchen features stainless steel appliances, new Bosch dishwasher and granite counters. The new adjacent dining table seats six persons comfortably.

Sea Whisper has beautiful tile and hardwood floors throughout (no wall-to-wall carpet). A 65 inch flat screen HD smart TV is located in the living room with additional flat screen TVs in each bedroom. Guests will enjoy cable and complimentary wi-fi internet access (for their laptops or iPads). Additionally, a large capacity washer and a large capacity dryer are located in the Villa.

The Fairway Lane private putting green, an on site tennis court for Fairway Lane owners and their guests, and Sea Pines bike and walking trails are just steps from the door. While the complex has no swimming pool, guests can purchase pool passes by the week or by the day at the South Beach pool (approximately 3 1/2 miles from Sea Whisper and within Sea Pines) 9pool is closed for 2025).

With an ideal location nearly adjacent to the Sea Pines Forest Preserve (a 600 acre protected wildlife area with four pristine stocked lakes, wildflower garden and hiking trails), our Villa is close to Harbour Town, the lovely Sea Pines Beach Club ( a nice walk along the beach or bike path), South Beach (home of the "Salty Dog" and the South Beach Racquet/Pickleball Club), miles of bike trails and Lawton Stables (featuring trail rides and a petting zoo) as well as to restaurants and shopping. Breakfast on the porch of the elegant Atlantic Dunes/Heron Point Golf Club, dinner in its "Fraser's Tavern" restaurant or a meal at the Harbour Town Club House is always a treat. Boasting 26 golf courses, Hilton Head is also a renowned tennis destination.

WHAT IS NEW: New Tommy Bahama king bed with matching nightstands, quiet Bosch dishwasher, dining table, chairs & buffet and 2 additional rocking chairs for the patio. We are continually adding decorating touches to Sea Whisper, because we want our guests to have a wonderful and comfortable experience while staying at our Villa and enjoying Hilton Head Island.

Sea Whisper Perfection!

We love coming to Sea Whisper! The owners are so easy to work with and so very accommodating! I love the decor, the kitchen is very well equipped and I so enjoyed the patio and putting green! We were fortunate to dodge a hurricane but we felt very safe and secure in Sea Whisper.

We Love Sea Whisper!

Second time staying at this fabulous property. It’s set up perfectly; doesn’t lack for much of anything. Location in Sea Pines is so perfect— easy walk across the street and down the beach path to a quiet section of beach; not even half a mile to the beach club if that’s your preference; and easy in/out access to Sea Pines via back gate.

The perfect getaway

Everything was as expected, according to the description. In person, the villa was even better than the pictures. It was very clean and comfortable and peaceful. We enjoyed watching the golfers tee off and listening to the birds while we had our coffee. Everything in the villa was in working condition and they made every effort to ensure you knew exactly how to control the TV, etc. It was hassle-free so you could truly enjoy the vacation without frustration. The owners were quick to respond when we had one question. The location was great for the beach and biking and everything else. They even provided suggestions for activities and dining, which we really appreciated since it was our first time visiting Hilton Head. Totally worth the very reasonable price! Hope to go back again :-)

Fabulous spot!

We have been coming to Sea Pines for 25 years and have had a few favorite places to stay. We decided to change it up this year and were pleasantly surprised. The location was really special. Great for watching golf. Private. Quiet. And 4.5 minute walk (we timed it) to the beach. The villa was nicely appointed and even had beach chairs and towels. We will stay here again in the future!

Lovely Villa with Golf Course View

We enjoyed our weeklong stay at Sea Whisper, a beautifully furnished and decorated villa, which was comfortable and well equipped. The back yard patio had a golf course view, and view of the lagoon in back. Lots of birds and wildlife sounds - it was peaceful and relaxing. The location was perfect, short walk to beach and to Trolley stop for the Heritage golf classic! Easy access to bike paths, tennis and putting green. We had a wonderful stay!!

Beautiful Villa with Short Walk to Ocean

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 92 Fairway Lane. It was clean, well-stocked with everything you need and beautifully decorated. It was about a 5 minute walk to the beach, and had an amazing view of the golf course from the patio. We highly recommend this villa and would definitely stay there again in the future.

Babymoon Stay

My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves at this beautiful condo! The putting green right out behind the condo, the short walk to the beach and provided amenities such as beach chairs, furnished patio, washer and dryer and full kitchen were all such nice additions to our stay. We really loved our stay and would absolutely stay again! The only thing that could have been better was the overall cleanliness of the space. It felt like it really needed a good deep clean, but other than that we appreciated the comfort of the furniture and overall stay!

Charming condo in golf community

This condo was everything we wanted. It was spotless, comfortable, well stocked and in a beautiful location. We enjoyed sitting out on the back porch every morning and night. We could watch golf and use the putting green that was for owners and guests in the community. The owners answered all of our questions and gave great recommendations. We would love to return!

Vacation in Sea Pines

I have only returned 3 days ago , so please allow me time to take care of important matters here at home ! ---------The villa is very inviting with its upscale furnishings and decorator touches which contribute much to an enjoyable and relaxing stay ; I was impressed by the high quality of china, glasses, bedding and bathroom towels ; the kitchen had everything from coffee makers to a wine bottle stopper; -( the scissors need sharpening ) ; with the help from my wonderful neighbor I was finally able to work the tv in the living room ;-- the set of Golf Clubs is a special thoughtful touch which many guests will appreciate; the villa surpassed my expectation compared to quite a few others I have vacationed in in Hilton Head ; however I shall not return for another visit as I can not bring my little dog; Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving

August vacation

My family has been going to Hilton Head since 2012 and we all agreed this was our favorite place that we’ve stayed yet. Well appointed furniture and setup, great layout, and fantastic location. We used to stay on another end of the island and while it had more things around it, it was very crowded. This location is a few minutes drive if you want to go to restaurants, etc but so nice and peaceful with a beautiful view of the golf course and lots of wildlife. The owners were quick to respond and very accommodating to a request I had. We all loved that we were a 5 minute walk to the beach, had tennis courts right behind the unit, and a putting green out the back door. We are planning to come back next year.

About the host

Hosted by Eileen & Ron Epstein

Host profile image
We are retired lawyers from Falmouth, Maine, who love Hilton Head Island and the Low Country. We enjoy pickleball, tennis, bike riding, dining etc. During the winter, we stay at our villa ("Sea Whisper"); the remainder of the year we open it to guests who value a wonderful location and high-end furnishings.

Why they chose this property

We first visited Hilton Head in 1988 with a three year old in tow. At that time we decided that the Island with its tennis, golf, biking, bicycling, dining and magnificent beaches would be our choice for a vacation home someday. Just over 13 years ago, we returned and immediately fell in love with this Fairway Lane Villa because of its beautiful interior, great view of the Ocean Course (now redone and renamed "Atlantic Dunes") and short walk to the beach. Our adult sons and daughter-in-law look forward to joining us in the many sports activities (golf, tennis, horseback trail riding, running, pickle ball etc.) as we make new memories. The trip from Maine to this retreat is worth the journey!

What makes this property unique

Few villas in Sea Pines offer walking access to the beach yet a shady yard to avoid the sun at the end of the day. The all glass Carolina room seems to us a perfect place for reading if one can avoid being distracted by the ever changing view of birds flying over the lagoon to perch on the rail of a footbridge or golfers swinging for the perfect shot off the tee.
