You won't believe the size of our Two-Story, Large 1 bedroom Villa! What a great vacation you're bound to have. We have a very nicely decorated and very comfortable 1 bedroom townhouse right in the heart of the Shelter Cove Marina, which is a part of the well known Palmetto Dunes Plantation. Shelter Cove is Hilton Head's largest marina. The villa is well-suited for a couple and for overnight guests using the sleeper couch.

OUR TOWNHOUSE IS A CORNER UNIT WITH AWESOME FULL HARBOR VIEWS.The living area has a dining room with a greenhouse window wall and a glass top table with seating for 6. You'll also be amazed when you see the 2 walls of glass in the living room...giving our place a terrific bright and open feeling.

Not just 1 but 2 balconies to enjoy...one that has some morning sun and a great view of Shelter Cove's courtyard and the 14' bronze statue of Neptune...and a nice view of some of the harbor too. The other balcony has fabulous full views of the marina and, in season, great afternoon sun and beautiful evening sunsets. Also during the high season, you also get a weekly fireworks display over the harbor...and you have a front row seat from your balcony.

Our kitchen has been nicely renovated & updated. New cognac colored cabinets, granite tops and all stainless appliances.

Shelter Cove is a very popular place for vacationers. Waters sports (fishing, kayaking, sightseeing, etc), lots of stores for shopping and a ton of restaurants all around the harbor, most with al fresco dining...even a restaurant that offers a 'doggie menu' for your pooch to eat along side of you! Also there are MANY other restaurants and stores to shop, especially at the nearby Shelter Cove Town Centre which is just a short walk away from the marina.

Most of the harbor front restaurants offer al fresco dining with live entertainment. There's even an amphitheater/pavilion maybe 100' away from our balcony that has live entertainment for you during the high season...it's very popular and gathers a nice crowd...and it's great fun for the kids too.

In season, there is a free shuttle 'buggy' that will pick you up right next to our building. It takes you around the Palmetto Dunes Plantation including our private beach house and the country store. And just a few blocks away from the marina is the new Shelter Cove Town Centre. An outdoor mall of stores, restaurants, park, entertainment pavilion and a huge Kroger's to do your grocery shopping.

And if you like theater, there's a playhouse only 1 block away. You can also rent a bike right from the marina...go all around the marina and Shelter Cove...even bike from Shelter Cove through the tunnel and under highway 278 and see the rest of the Palmetto Dunes Plantation!

Our townhouse is large. It has almost 1,300sf of living space. The villa is nicely decorated and very comfortable...more like a year 'round place to live than a rental unit. As you enter, there's a powder room, then the kitchen. The dining room is ahead with a greenhouse window wall. Then as you pass by the open kitchen with counter and stools, you see the expansive living area with 2 walls of glass and the 2 balconies. And there's a queen sleeper sofa in the living room for the kids or your guests to use. If you let us know in advance, we can provide an air mattress...some of our guests have enjoyed using it on the balcony when the weather is comfortable to sleep out there.

To get upstairs to the master bedroom suite, go up the spiral staircase. Once you're upstairs, you'll find a huge master bedroom with a sitting nook and a large platform whirlpool tub that's open to the bedroom. There's also a vanity with double sink and a separate area with the shower and toilet.

We offer rentals throughout the year. Also, at the end of your stay there is a cleaning charge. Guests can park on-site for an extra fee, which is paid to the parking attendant upon arrival. We also offer discounts on multiple week stays and deeper discounts on monthly stays, especially during the winter months for all of you 'snow birds'.

Credit card payments are through VRBO/Homeaway and are subject to their service charges.

By the way, for all of you TV buffs we now have we have a 55' big screen LED-HDTV with DVD in the living room and a 40' big screen LCD-HDTV in the bedroom. Both have the preferred channel lineup.

And for all of you that can't leave your computer at home, we have internet in the villa.

    My dogs and I had a great stay! The Villa is extremely nice and in a perfect location. The balconies overlook the harbor and marina. There are kayaks, stand up paddle boarding, bike paths, and easy access to beautiful beaches. The area is super dog friendly. The shops and restaurants are a plus. The stay was so much fun, I plan on returning!

    To begin, My husband and I have visited Hilton Head numerous times over the years as it is a favorite vacation location for us. I was quite disappointed in the lack of communication with the host as this was a highlight in most of the reviews. I contacted him numerous times re: arrival/checkout details and never heard back. I finally contacted VRBO support and was told they would reach out to the host as well. I attempted to call the host throughout the drive to Hilton Head and was finally able to reach him about an hour out. He shared that he was experiencing health issues and would resolve in an hour. I never heard from him again during our entire stay. We had to purchase a parking pass as the host did not leave at the pass office. This was never communicated prior to our visit. The images posted on VRBO displayed a lovely tub. The water pressure in the tub was terrible as the water only trickled out. It took over an hour to fill enough for a bath without using the jets. The TV in the bedroom would power on, but there was no sound. My husband who is quite tech savvy, worked tirelessly to resolve the issue without success. The owners should consider adding additional lighting near the entrance of the villa as it is extremely dark and difficult to see the doorknob for key use at night. We used our phones for lighting. My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and my birthday during our vacation and did all we could to make the best of our stay. Disappointing!

    This was our second year staying here and we are already hopeful to start planning our 3rd year. This unit has everything you need for a perfect HHI vacation and is located in the best spot on the island for fireworks as well as water activities and food. We can’t wait to book our next stay here!

    Great location if you love Shelter Cove. Two balconies one that overlooks the marina and a second that overlooks Neptune. You can find live music in the cove seven nights a week at least one of the many restaurants. All of which that we tried were excellent. The condo was just as described and pictures show. There is some hassle with booking the condo. Which could and should be easier. I was required to print an independent condo contract sign and send it back via photos after signed. In the past I have never been asked to do that if renting through VRBO. Many times have I signed one electronically through VRBO. If this is required it needs to be made available electronically. Other than that we had a great time in Shelter Cove!

    We needed a place in a pinch and this fit the need. The owners were easy to work with. The place is in dire need of updating and HEAVY cleaning. (very much an 80's time capsule). The mattress needs replacing as it's an old spring mattress and you feel every spring. The location is AWESOME.

    Due to an unforeseen medical emergency, my family was unable to utilize the unit for vacation. However, we are familiar with the location and know it’s a lovely area. One of the owners, Mike, was incredibly understanding when we had to notify of our last-minute change of plans. In the booking process, he was very accommodating to our request to include a small dog in our rental agreement also. We hope to have the pleasure of staying in this unit in the future and wish the owners nothing but the best!

    Wonderful location! We have stayed at various locations on the island and by far have loved this one the most! It’s exactly as pictured and we are hopefully going to be booking again next year!
