CLOSEST OCEAN COVE VILLA TO THE BEACH - 3 MINUTES WALK PET FRIENDLY.

The villa is located on the 4th row from the ocean. Literally 180 yards from the beach. Everything in our villa (the paint, the furniture, the accessories, the blankets, etc.) was designed and being updated to make sure our guests are relaxed and happy with their choice of the vacation.

Briefly about the resort:

Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort is a world renown resort with a Southern charm. It is one of the most central and convenient locations. Our Spacious Townhouse is only 180 yards to the ocean, on the 4th row from the ocean, inside the resort, just past the North gate guarded 24 /7. This villa provides large rooms for maximum comfort when you are not on the beach, playing golf or tennis, or riding your bike along the many bike trails.


The club pool and children's pool are steps from your villa, just a short walk out the back door. Within walking distance to Tennis and Pickle Ball Center, Trent Jones and Fazio Golf Courses, Dunes House Restaurant, Hilton (Marriott in the recent past) Hotel and Spa, Alexander's Restaurant, Hilton Head Outfitters, Kayak, Bicycle and beach accessories rentals.

Fishing off our private dock on the 11-mile lagoon is just another adventure the children and adults love. This villa is facing Mooring Buoy thus one of the very few villas closest to the beach.

Upstairs (15 steps) has another Large Bedroom with two full beds , 60 inch smart TV , full bathroom and a separate Loft is great for extra sleeping space with a daybed. Internet can be accessed from any part of the house. All bedrooms and living room have Smart TVs.

Contemporary kitchen with laundry facilities and convenient eating area help make this a relaxing vacation. Slide doors from the living room, master bedroom and upstairs bedroom bring lots of light. Patio doors off living room to outdoor seating with Weber Charcoal grill.

Great experience

Property was as advertised. Our family of 4 and a pup had plenty of room and enjoyed the amenities of the condo. The location of this villa is a huge benefit as it’s a short walk to the beach, the pickleball center and the general store. Gene was a pleasure to communicate with, and you can tell he truly cares about providing his guests with the best experience while at his condo. I highly recommend staying at this villa.

Fantastic location

We have been coming to Hilton Head for quite a few years. The first time we came we stayed in the ocean cove club. Over the years we have tried different locations inside Palmetto dunes and we believe that this is by far the best location. Close to the beach, bike rentals, tennis complex and general store. Away from the public beach access and the busy high rise area. The area is fantastic for bike rides and everyone is so friendly. We highly recommend the villa it was super clean and well stocked and will be returning over the next years to come. Thanks Gene for all the communication it made the process seamless.

Great dog friendly location

Location is perfect for dog owners. Beach is a few minutes away on foot. Dog park in Chaplin Park at Singleton Beach Road is a few minutes drive and is a good place to meet locals. Home is clean and bright. Ocean Cove is a lovely subdivision. Wish we could have stayed longer.

A perfect first visit to Hilton Head Island!

This condo provides us with a great combination of good location and a nice setup for two couples or a family. A short, pleasant walk to the beach, a general store and several restaurant. A perfect bicycling location and being in the middle of the island a convenient base for visiting various points of interest. A clean and quiet location.

Excellent condo and location

We just stayed here. In my opinion the condo was even nicer in person than in the pictures. The location was perfect. Very short walk to the beach and close to the pool and general store. The kitchen was well stocked and the unit included plenty of towels. Our kids loved it and didn’t want to come home. I would definitely book here again. Be aware the pool doesn’t open until April 1st and you are not allowed to use the other nearby pools in Palmetto Dunes. You have a great beach to go to so we didn’t miss the pool but this wasn’t clear to us when we booked. Also, you might need to proactively reach out to the property management company for check-in information such as parking pass and the key code. They didn’t give me any info up front so I had to call when we got there. The property owner was very nice and extremely responsive to all my questions when we arrived. He called in our parking pass so we could use the beach access prior to check in.

Ocean Cove Vacation

Our vacation stayat Ocean Cove was excellent. After securing our reservation, our family was greeted by the owner and he made sure all of our questions were answered. The location was 3 minutes from the beach. The unit housed our four family members with extra room. The bathrooms, kitchen and floors have been updated and look really nice. We had a great stay and hope to reserve it again if it’s open.
