About this property

Sunny, Resort Like Back Yard, Huge New Pool-FREE HEAT, Close To Beach

Stay in the best Hilton Head Resort! Palmetto Dunes Resort Named 2023 #14 Best Resort in the South by Condé Nast Traveler. And Hilton Head Island was ranked the No 1 resort island in the continental US the last five years by Travel and Leisure Magazine!

This newer design, custom built home in Palmetto Dunes has been completely renovated and is only a 10 minute walk to the beach. The home is meticulously maintained and has a layout and size that provides a great gathering place for large families and friends.

The setting: Located in a quiet yet convenient area of Palmetto Dunes, this home has a short 10 min, beautiful, walk to the beach. It also has a similar length walk to the new Kroger grocery store in the opposite direction. Hop on a bike and cut the travel time down to a few minutes! The front of the home looks out to a beautifully landscaped front yard with a perfect, stately live oak surrounded by graceful azaleas. Additionally, across the street is a small undeveloped area providing more tranquil views of this peaceful setting. Functionally, a circular driveway serving a two car garage provides ample parking. The back area of the home is south facing and open providing tons of sun, (a rarity in Hilton Head), It also features perfect open views of the pool, professional landscaping, and a 15-acre spring fed lake that provides fishing and abundant wildlife watching, especially all the incredible birds! The back yard setting alone will make you want to come back!

The pool: The pool is a modern design and is much larger than the average pool found in the area. It features an 8 foot deep end and an 8 inch deep sun shelf or kiddie area. It is graced on the back side by a 4ft wide shear flow fountain. Other highlights include a soft water/salt chlorination system,(no chlorine smell, red eyes, or irritation), colored LED lights for night time fun, and a large tile dolphin in 3D! Additionally, FREE heating,(when temp is above 50-55F), is provided, as needed, by a heat pump. Complimenting the pool is a large lawn area, a large paver pool deck with plenty of pool furniture, and an upgraded/renovated 12x30ft deck with built in seating, table and chairs for 8 with an umbrella, a separate retractable umbrella, and a gas grill.

Living areas: An abundance of large living areas provides ample space for multiple activities. Entering inside, you’ll find a bright open floor plan starting with a large tiled entry with 14ft ceilings. Flanking the entry is a large formal living room providing a great place to visit or escape the activities of the great room. An adjacent formal dining room provides seating for 10.

The huge, fun, great room is perfect for watching sports or movies and features 14ft high ceilings, a large built-in entertainment center with a 65 inch smart TV, and a triple french door opening to the deck.

Overlooking the great room is an expanded gourmet kitchen featuring stainless appliances including a large double wall oven, and a five burner cooktop, as well as new cabinets and granite. The sizeable adjacent breakfast room seats 10 and is a great place to view the lake and watch the egrets, osprey, and herons in the morning.

Sleeping: Three separate bedroom areas make this layout ideal for multiple groups and privacy. There is a master/family suite that features double doors opening to a sitting area. Off this room is the master bedroom, the master bath, and a small bedroom with two twin beds. The master BR is beautifully furnished, has a 50in TV and a triple french door opening to the deck to enjoy the views. On the opposite side of the house are two more bedrooms. The first has a queen bed and full bath and the other bedroom has two sets of bunks beds, (switching to a queen and one bunk bed set in 2024), and a full bath. The second master bedroom is on the front side of the home and is the only room on an elevated level providing quiet privacy. It has tropical Tommy Bahama furniture, (king bed), huge windows with great views out the front and a full bath with a beautiful tile shower. Lastly, a new queen sleep sofa is provided in the living room.

The beach: There are several ways to enjoy the beach. You can walk or ride a bike to one of the regularly spaced beach access paths. We have provided approximately twelve adult bikes and two children's bikes at our home for your complimentary use*. You can also drive to the the complimentary Palmetto Dunes Beach Club which provides parking, bathrooms, outside showers and snack shop/restaurant. It is located near the south gate and is free for guests. Additionally, there is a complimentary Palmetto Dunes shuttle bus that will take you to the beach and back! All you have to do is give them a call to arrange a ride.

We are confident you will love this home and will want to come back again!

*While we do our best to maintain our bikes, operability is not guaranteed.

Amazing experience
We stayed at this house with a group of friends at the beginning of April 2025. Plenty of space and kitchen supplies for our group. The heated pool was perfect this time of year and used morning, day and night by our group! It was great!

Fabulous!
As previous reviews have stated, Wade’s place is extremely spacious, comfortable & very well equipped. Our family of 8 had a great holiday & really appreciated all the extras, such as use of the bikes, pool toys & beach gear. The location is great & very quiet, & only a short cycle ride from Kroger’s supermarket, shops & also the beach. We would definitely stay again.

Wonderful family vacation house....
8 adults, 7 kids, had a wonderful time at beach, pool and fishing in the lake directly behind the yard. House has an easy, smooth flow and a spacious working kitchen which is the heart of the home. It was unanimous, everyone wants to return to this house next year! Pool is great for kids of all ages.

Excellent Vacation
First time staying at this property and it was excellent. The owner was terrific to work with and made sure our stay was perfect. It is a beautiful home and provided us with plenty of space to where all of us (5 adults) had our own private area while still enjoying time together. The entire home was well stocked with plenty of extras. We spent countless hours in the pool which was a perfect size and heated to our preference by the owner. The location was great in that it is centrally located on the island. Perfect place to stay on vacation! Much appreciation to the owner for an excellent stay!

This was year two of staying in this beautiful home. It is so comfortable and feels like our second home. Our son and his family stayed here last fall and just loved it. Our daughter and her family are staying here in late April. So as you can see our family thinks an awful lot of this home. Wade is a pleasure to deal with!!

We loved the house , it was great for our large family The kids loved the pool and the house being close to the beach!

3rd time’s a charm!
This was our family’s third time staying at this lovely vacation home. There is room for each family to have their own “quarters”, a fully equipped kitchen including crockpots & an air fryer, bikes for all ages, & an awesome heated pool. The owner is easy to communicate with & has quickly responded to & addressed any minor issues that have come up. We plan to return AGAIN!!
