1981 St Andrews: Pet Friendly 2 Beds, 2 Baths, Palmetto Dunes villa
Proudly hosted by Island Rentals of Hilton Head, this is truly one of the most special St. Andrews Villas available—an exceptional end-unit retreat offering a custom elevated “treehouse” perspective overlooking lush natural landscape and the golf course beyond. Tucked into a quiet, private section of the complex with no one above you and friendly neighbors beside you, this villa delivers peaceful Lowcountry serenity while placing you right in the heart of everything.
Inside, the completely reconstructed kitchen is impressively spacious and outfitted with new appliances, perfect for everything from casual breakfasts to evening entertaining. The open-concept great room showcases a stunning shiplap vaulted ceiling, abundant natural light, coastal-inspired colors, and a stylish wet/wine bar—creating an inviting space to gather and unwind. Step outside to the covered, full wraparound deck and take in tranquil views of the golf course and surrounding natural habitat, where multiple species of birds and wildlife create a peaceful Lowcountry backdrop.
This two-bedroom, two-bath villa comfortably accommodates guests with a King bed in the primary suite and a Queen plus Twin in the guest bedroom. The primary suite offers private exterior access, and both bathrooms have been luxuriously updated with spa-like finishes, walk-in showers, and generous storage. An in-unit washer and dryer add convenience, and the villa truly lives like a private home.
Your stay includes thoughtful extras to make your vacation effortless—4 adult bikes for exploring the resort, 4 backpack beach chairs for relaxing oceanside.
As a guest of Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort, you’ll enjoy access to three championship golf courses—Robert Trent Jones, George Fazio, and Arthur Hills—along with miles of private beaches and a sheltered 11-mile lagoon system offering kayak and canoe rentals. You can even stroll to the Palmetto Dunes General Store for fresh breakfast and morning coffee before heading out for the day. With access to a community pool, pickleball, tennis, private beach access, gated security, and PET-FRIENDLY accommodations, this exceptional villa offers the very best of Hilton Head Island resort living.

The condo was very nice - very quiet setting. Perfect for our dogs as there was little noise to disrupt them while we were out of the condo. Kitchen very nice - with all that was needed for the week. Bedrooms and bathrooms were nice

Reviewer Comments:
it was a very nice place except 1. They need to replace the toilet seat in the 2nd bathroom. 2. Maybe rethink those blinds at the front bedroom windows. They do not close completely and since they face the landing and front door, security is a concern even those it's on the 2nd floor. May be able the light switches since there're so many!

We loved our stay at 1981 St Andrews Common! The property was so beautiful and peaceful. The condo itself had everything we needed. 2 minute walk to the pool and a 5 minute drive to the beach. There's even a driver that will pick your whole family (and your beach gear) up from your condo and take you there! The only thing that would've made it better would have been to have the correct size fitted sheet, and blanket on the king bed 😂Overall it was great! We even rode bikes (I haven't don't that in 30 years lol)! We will absolutely be back... I almost didn't leave lol

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so happy to hear you loved your stay at 1981 St. Andrews Common and enjoyed the peaceful setting and beautiful surroundings.
It's great to know the condo had everything you needed and that you were able to take advantage of the nearby pool, convenient beach access, and the seasonal Dunes Buggy shuttle. We're especially glad you got back on a bike after 30 years—that's what Hilton Head vacations are all about!
Thank you for letting us know about the fitted sheet and blanket on the king bed. We appreciate you bringing that to our attention and will have our housekeeping team verify that the correct bedding is in place.
Thank you for choosing Island Rentals of Hilton Head. We truly appreciate your kind words and are thrilled to hear you'll be back. We'll be ready whenever you decide it's time for your next island getaway!
