Renovated Night Heron | Walk to Beach | King Bed | Screened Deck | Pet-Friendly

This extensively renovated Night Heron bungalow offers the perfect blend of structural upgrades, modern comfort, and classic Sea Pines charm.

A newly covered front porch welcomes you inside, where new windows and doors enhance both light and efficiency. The open living room features updated flooring, coastal tones, and ample seating centered around a large flat-screen TV. A private office off the family room provides dedicated workspace, and the washer/dryer has been thoughtfully relocated for convenience.

The kitchen has been enhanced with a new coffee bar and pantry area, along with an island for additional prep space. It is fully equipped for family meals and opens to a dining area that seats four comfortably.

Great House in a great location!

This house was the perfect size for two adults and two dogs. The location is fantastic and minutes from the beach on foot and in a quiet location. The home is tastefully decorated and well stocked with quality home goods (dishes, utensils, pots etc) in just the right amounts. We would definitely stay there again of we got back to Hilton Head.

Great location!

My husband, pup Daisy and I enjoyed our stay at the property. It has all the household items needed to prepare meals and was a short walk to the beach. I enjoyed biking the trails to the forest preserve to see the shell ring! The location was easy to find from the entrance to Sea Pines and was a great base to visit Coligny plaza, Salty Dog and Harbor Town. We enjoyed our visit to this pet friendly location. Location was quiet and easy parking as well.

Sea pines SC.

The bungalow was adorable and equipped with everything you could possibly need, plenty of places to sit in the living room. The beds were comfortable I would definitely stay again. The only thing I didn’t care for was the sink and mirror being in the actual bedroom right outside the bathroom . Wildlife was abundant and the beach was close by. Plenty or restaurants tour to take and nice shops everywhere.

Just what we needed

The living spaces were bigger than I expected. Everything was nice and updated, including the kitchen tools. The location was fantastic. Just a short walk down to the beach path. And it was great having a pool close by as well. The deck outside was very spacious. Perfect for setting out everything to dry off that we needed to.

This bungalow was the perfect size and set-up for our family. We're 2 adults and 2 teens so everyone had some space. Loved that it was a 5 min walk to the beach. The home was stocked with essentials and then we were close to the grocery store to grab anything else we needed. I might have missed it in the listing but the bungalow does have a Keurig too. The only thing I'd point out is that the showers are small and there's no tub. It still worked for us but I know that would be a dealbreaker for some travelers. My husband was talking about staying here again within 24 hours of our arrival so it was a hit.

Great time

This property was such fun! Nicely decorated beach themed! Lots of dishes and kitchen utensils. The bathrooms are small but nothing we couldn’t deal with. There were lots of bees on the back deck but the property manager dealt with it right away. It was about an 8 minute walk to the uncrowded beach. Our dog was welcomed and we had a great time. Would recommend it to anyone!

Cozy Cottage

Comfortable little bungalow in Sea Pines. Spacious kitchen & living room area. Bedrooms are good size. Showers are a bit compact but it was ok. Heads up that Sea Pines is a gated community. You will get 1 car pass. All others pay $9 a day or $25 for the week if someone else has the pass and they plan on coming/going. Great area central to shopping and restaurants. Check out the Salty Dog in Sea Pines and the Park Cinema is a real treat. Leather reclining chairs, bar, food and only 10 minutes from the house.

Wonderful accommodations and location/close proximity to beach

We have been to HH for years and this was our first stay at 16 Night Heron and we will return to this property. Everything was clean, online pictures were accurate depictions of the home and the property manager was very responsive. The pros of this property include: close proximity to beach (short walk/bike ride on a concrete, tree-shaded beach path); a "single-family" home so you aren't hearing guests above and below you; location is near Ocean Gate entrance to Sea Pines which is a short bike ride to Coligny Plaza, restaurants/shops even outside of Sea Pines; they even provided dog bowls; home was well-stocked with necessities and we loved having our own deck

Wonderful place

Check in: We arrived around 5pm and quickly checked in (the only annoying thing was we had to pay $9 to actually get our parking pass for the whole week...unsure why the owner couldn’t simply leave the pass for us at the gate). Location: The villa/home is located a few minutes from the beach and by many amazing walking paths. (Watch out for alligators and keep your pets close to you ON A LEASH!) Depending on how much you like to walk, Cologne Plaza is just about a 20 min walk. The home: Fabulous. Obviously newly renovated and kept in great shape. Had no issues with anything in terms of appliances or the AC. Recommendation: Perhaps a larger coffee or dinning table that can accommodate a large puzzle. We managed on the kitchen counter but it was rough.

Well appointed with room for improvement

The property is in a great location, very well appointed, has every kitchen item you could dream of, and has a Keurig which I don’t think is mentioned in the listing. Upon arrival everything looked great. When everything was unpacked from the car and we went to sit down, all of the furniture was covered in long dog hair. We then checked the beds. The comforters had some hair, the back of the bed pillows had some dog hair, sheets were fine. My husband was running out for groceries so he picked up a sticky roller. I was able to pick up a lot of the hair, but not all. I brought it up 2x to the owner and got one half hearted reply, apologizing on behalf of the cleaning crew. There was hair and grit under the furniture and a large dog “stain” on the living room rug. I didn’t complain about this, but clearly the cleaners need to spend more time in the living room. If it weren’t for these items I would’ve given 5 stars, we didn’t let it dampen our vacation, but I did expect more.

Everything setup at this spot worked well for us. Communication with the host was fine. Property was well-stocked with everything we needed for the week. The walk to the beach is .35 miles. Definitely bring a cart to haul chairs and coolers. There were only a few of things that were not perfect. We found a few small bugs in the bed. There were also some hairs in the comforter and dryer. We cleaned them but it wasn’t perfect.

Thank you for your review—we’re glad to hear the home was well-stocked, communication was smooth, and that the property worked well for your stay. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience with a few bugs and the hairs you mentioned. Being in a warm, coastal environment like Hilton Head, bugs can occasionally find their way indoors despite regular pest control, but we certainly understand how that can be frustrating. We also take cleanliness very seriously and will share your feedback with our cleaning team to ensure every detail is carefully checked moving forward. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope we have the opportunity to host you again for an even better experience next time.
