Nestled right on the Atlantic in the Sea Pines Plantation, 22 Black Skimmer Rd is frequently praised as a dreamy, family-friendly escape — the kind of place where you make lifelong memories. Guests consistently highlight its fantastic location, with private beach access via the owner’s own pathway, so you’re just steps away from the sand yet still tucked away in a peaceful, private setting. And Sea Pines itself is a world-class community, with PGA golf, dining, extensive bike trails, racquet sports facilities and some of the world's most beautiful beach at your fingertips.

This spacious home masterfully blends beach cottage charm with modern comforts. With six bedrooms and 6.5 baths, it can comfortably sleep large families or multiple generations. The layout is well-designed: there’s an open-plan living and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen with adjacent BBQ grill, a formal dining room, and a dedicated work space/office — plus an elevator, making it accessible for guests who prefer not to use the stairs.

Outside, the property really shines. The private pool (16’ × 34’) is a favorite among guests — beautifully maintained, often heated on request, and surrounded by a lush backyard garden. The upstairs deck overlooking the ocean provides a relaxing spot to unwind, dine, or just take in the sea breeze.

Inside, guests say the home is very well stocked — top-notch kitchen gear, plenty of towels, and smart-sized common areas make it easy to cook, entertain, and hang out comfortably. Multiple flat-panel TVs and a reliable internet connection (10 MB broadband) also make it a great mix of getaway and functional home base.

A few recurring themes from reviews:
•Responsiveness: The owner (Ted) gets high marks for communication — guests say he’s very quick to respond and fix any minor issues.
•Cleanliness: Reviewers repeatedly mention how clean and well-maintained the house is.
•Privacy + Tranquility: Despite being oceanfront, the home feels secluded. Many note how peaceful it is, especially given how close you are to the beach without being directly exposed.
•Family-friendly: With its large size, multiple bathrooms, and flexible sleeping arrangements, it’s very well-suited to family groups.
Ideal For
•Multi-generational families or groups of friends looking for a spacious, luxury beachfront home.
•Guests who value direct beach access without compromising on privacy.
•Relaxation-focused vacations, with both pool and ocean options for downtime.
•Travelers who appreciate both comfort and thoughtful amenities, from a fully stocked kitchen to multiple entertaining areas.

    This was a wonderful place for a week-long family get-together. The house is spacious, with plenty of bathrooms and sitting space. The kitchen appliances, air conditioning, and wifi all worked great. There is a spacious covered porch overlooking the shore and dunes. You're surrounded by quiet woods and greenery, but it's not that far a drive to the local Publix and Starbucks. There are many good restaurants nearby. We loved it!!

    Commutation with owner was helpful. We were hopeful that debris from tropical storm early in the week would have been taken care of but it was not a significant issue.

    My family had a great vacation. Very relaxing and the pool was used every day. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate everyone comfortably. The owner was very attentive. We had a few small issues and someone came right away. Recommend

    We had a wonderful time staying here. There were only 4 of us so we had plenty of room. The location is perfect! We have been coming to HHI for many years and we liked this location the best. We visited in Oct this year and had the beach almost to ourselves. It was beautiful weather which helped. The kitchen in this house is very well stocked and Ted is great at getting back to any questions we had ASAP. We will be back!

    The house, pool area and yard exceeded our expectations- even better than the photos! We had teens through grandparents and all loved our stay. Fully equipped kitchen with literally everything you need. Quiet part of the beach but only a short bike ride to the Salty Dog for a meal out, music and great ice cream. We love HHI and this was one of our best rentals yet. Ted was hands-down the best homeowner we have rented from - really helpful, great tips on things to do, and very responsive. Can’t wait to stay here again!

    This was our second trip to this house, and it was as wonderful as we remembered! Lots of space for the family and a beautiful outdoor area by the beach.

    My family stayed for Thanksgiving week and this house was perfect. The communication with Ted was amazing. The pool was wonderful and the beach is steps from the pool.

    We have stayed at many properties over the years with our family and this house and location was my favorite. The house was beautiful and spacious. The back yard with the pool and ocean view made our trip so nice. We loved the location and biked to breakfast, dinner, the park or for ice cream each day. The host was very good and always responded quickly. I would definitely like to stay here again.
