EXCEPTIONAL Large and Private Villa in Palmetto Dunes Resort!! 5-Star Reviews!!!
About this villa rental
Welcome to our spacious, remodeled and designer decorated 2nd floor, 2-bedroom Villa in the award winning, prestigious and gated Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort on Hilton Head Island. Palmetto Dunes was named one of the Top 25 Family Resorts in the World by Travel and Leisure Magazine. Our villa is located right on the golf course in the extreme southern corner of St. Andrews Common which is furthest from roads, and other units. It has the absolute best views and it's in the quietest, most private corner of St. Andrews Common. The commercial vacation rental companies all wanted our villa, but we decided to list on VRBO and give you a MUCH better price. NOTE: This is NOT the much smaller 2 bedroom unit with the small deck and the 2nd bedroom in a loft with a spiral staircase. Ours is the largest and most luxurious 2-bedroom villa in St. Andrews Common. For 2023 we have a total kitchen remodel with new cabinets, new quartz counter tops new luxury vinyl flooring, etc. Also new for 2023 is all new living room furniture. You'll need to visit to appreciate this exceptional, spacious and truly unique 1,400 sq. ft., 2-bedroom, one-level villa with its cathedral ceilings and stylish decor. You'll be in your own, private tropical paradise with spectacular views in every direction. A huge Magnolia tree, various Palms, Palmettos, Live Oaks with Spanish Moss, other tropical plants and a small lagoon frame beautiful views of the George Fazio Golf Course. There are no other villas, parking lots, walls or other obstructions to spoil your privacy and the tropical scenery. This is exactly why we were willing to pay a premium price for this premium St. Andrews Common property. If you need a place to STAY, get a hotel room. If you want a place to really LIVE on the Island, this is your villa! You'll be impressed with the open floor plan and atrium windows that fill the living spaces with light. The afternoon sun is filtered by the large beautiful trees, just off the deck, which provide a totally tropical feel. You'll prepare a glass of wine or a cold drink at the eight-foot long quartz wet bar which separates the living space from the dining space two steps above. The large Panasonic, high definition flat screen television is perfect for viewing the extended high-def channel selection; watching a DVD on the Panasonic Blue Ray player; or reviewing your day's beach photos using the TV's built-in photo viewing features. The furnishings throughout are high quality. The queen sleeper sofa will accommodate a 6th person or a couple of children. Morning coffee or the sunset with a cold drink are absolutely perfect while sitting in one of the bar-height, bistro chairs on the spacious, private wrap-around deck. The deck has room for everyone in the party with six chairs (four bar height) and three tables. There is also a Weber BBQ grill on the deck for preparing a perfect steak or fresh fish. You'll find a private retreat in the master suite with high ceilings, golf course views and separate French door access to the villa's large, wrap-around deck. Everything is updated from the tile, granite, vanities and fixtures in the bath to the furniture and large flat screen hi-def TV. Woven woods provide privacy for the windows and deck doors. Our designer advised that we should give special attention to the bedding as a good night's sleep is very important for us and our guests to fully enjoy our time on the Island. You'll sleep on the best, most supportive and most comfortable king mattress and foundation that we could find. The roomy second bedroom also has beautiful, high quality furnishings and shades to provide privacy for the windows that face the front, entry-side of the villa. This bedroom has a queen bed for couples: an extended-length twin bed for another golfer or family member and a flat screen TV/DVD combo. The hall bath, just outside the second bedroom, has also been completely renovated with new tile, vanity and granite. On days when you choose to eat in, food preparation will be a joy in the totally remodeled and well equipped kitchen with all new stainless steel appliances. The refrigerator has an ice maker and the range is a state of the art INDUCTION cook top and CONVECTION oven. For 2023 there is a new luxury vinyl plank flooring, new cabinets and new quartz counter tops. You may wash and dry your clothes and beach towels in the new full size washer and dryer just off the kitchen. Behind the kitchen and near the villa entrance is a study with desk, chair and artwork. This is a perfect place to open your laptop, access the villa's private 500 mbps wireless network and work remotely or make that reservation at your favorite Hilton Head Island restaurant. There is a printer on the desk for your use. There is also a small covered deck off the kitchen / study with two chairs and a small table where you will find a private space to read a book or have a private conversation. St. Andrews Common is part of the exclusive Palmetto Dunes / Shelter Cove Resort, one of the world's best resorts. The Resort offers exciting amenities and you will receive a Resort Pass which will give you driving and parking access to all areas of the Resort and all that this exceptional destination has to offer.

The property was easy to find, parking was plentiful and the villa is gorgeous inside. Very spacious, quiet and peaceful. The home is well appointed and we had everything we needed for a relaxing get away. We loved the deck, the updated kitchen and the cozy family room. We also enjoyed riding the bikes on the trails through Palmetto Dunes and taking walks down to the beach. Stan was very responsive and helpful - offering great suggestions and guidance for a very easy check-in process. No stress - just healing peace and quiet which was just what we both needed. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Stan for opening your home to us!

This is our fourth stay in this beautiful condo. The only time we haven’t stayed here is once when it sadly was already booked for our dates :). We have already rebooked our next trip. As always, it’s the best place to stay in Palmetto Dunes. The kitchen remodel is a nice extra that we thoroughly enjoyed! We loved the previous furniture, but actually really warmed up to the new decor and living room refresh; the main rooms are so bright and airy with the lighter colors and the natural light adds to this. We love this place and we know you will, too! Thanks again for the perfect stay.

We were spoiled by this lovely place for our first stay ever in Hilton Head and Palmetto Dunes. It was a great location for navigating to the beach, community pool, the Palmetto Dunes general store where we stopped for ice cream at least once a day, and super convenient to Kroger and all the restaurants and on-island activities available! Our hosts were super kind and helpful with any questions we had. Being a nature geek, I loved sitting up on the wrap-around porch in the mornings and admiring the trees and birds. On a very superficial level, we also enjoyed the space for the stay- all updated feeling and clean. We played Candyland and other games in the cabinets and were able to just enjoy family time together. We rented bikes to go along with the ones available in the unit and our older kids were able to make trips to the general store as a pair independently and loved that. Very thankful for our refreshing stay at this special place and we hope to come back again!

The Villa is large, comfortable, tastefully decorated with a newly remodeled kitchen and new living room furnishings.
Our favorite spot, however, is the outside wrap around deck. Situated on a golf course, by a small pond, so relaxing to watch the turtles, the birds, and the constant flow of golf balls going into the pond.
The location is perfect - 1 mile to the beach one direction and a mile or two the other direction to shopping.
The host is kind, generous, and responds quickly.
We hope to stay here again and it will be our 3rd time.

We really enjoyed a relaxing time here. The bikes were a great amenity and plenty of bike paths to ride on to enjoy the scenery all over the island. Excellent communication with the host and the property was a great location looking out over the golf course with a wrap around porch and a screened lanai.

Perfect Vacation
This property is in the perfect location. All the amenities that you would need for a great vacation. I think the best part was the communication with the property owner Stan. The beach is 10 minute bike ride from the Villa and restaurants are within walking distance. It was a relaxed environment.

Perfectly relaxing and peaceful
What a wonderful villa! Loved the private, shaded wrap around porch overlooking the golf course. The villa overall was comfortable and relaxing. A fully stocked "beach closet" with bikes, sand toys, boogie boards & beach chairs was a huge bonus. Excellent communication from the owners from the initial booking all the way through to departure. Definitely recommend!!!

This Villa has everything you need and more. Extremely well maintained and furnished. Beautiful, convenient location in the trees with a small turtle pond near the large deck. The owner has 2 beach bikes that took us everywhere we wanted or needed to go. Check in and check out is seemless thanks to owner provided instructions. Lovely Villa for a short or long stay. We'd love to return again next year.
