About this property
Large Penthouse Villa 2-Story Shelter Cove Marina Harbour Walk Full Harbor Views
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 husband and I enjoyed our stay at this property. While the outdoor temperatures were brutal while we were there, we were thankful for the air conditioning that worked perfectly to keep us cool when we were relaxing indoors. To beat the extreme heat, we went bike riding on the many bike paths early in the morning before it got too hot. We also made use of the pool and made a couple trips to the beach. It was so nice having restaurants and shops just steps away. Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish. This rental provided us a comfortable and stress free vacation.

We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay! It was a pleasure having you as our guests, and we hope to welcome you back again soon!
This place was great for a weekend getaway in Hilton Head. the location is awesome right in the Shelter Cove marina. We saw manatees from the room! The place was homey, with funky decor, and had everything we needed for a weekend getaway. We had no issues, except there was some confusion from the Palmetto Dunes Security Office when we were picking up our parking pass, but that got sorted and it seems that the security office won't be having that confusion in the future. Kara allowed us to come for a very last-minute stay which was really nice for us, so we got to enjoy the long weekend. Thank you!

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!

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!
We have stayed here several times. It’s very comfortable, well maintained and close to several restaurants and shopping. We always try to stay here when visiting the island.
This was our home for 11 days and we loved it. The owners are very communicative and the location is spectacular.
Hope to stay again!

The accommodations were great and with a million dollar view! The owner was very detailed and a pleasure to work with. Looking forward to staying again.
We enjoyed the stunning sunsets from our balcony. We were close to many outstanding restaurants & French bakery. The pool & beach were both easy to access.
We had the most relaxing stay here with our dogs! Will definitely be back. Great views and fun things to walk to. Townhouse is very comfortable and decor is really nice.

About the host
Your host
Hi, thank you for visiting our villa. We'd like to share our beautiful villa with you! We're sure you will completely enjoy your stay, whether for a long weekend, a full week, a month or longer. The large size of the villa makes it comfortable for long term stays.
Why they chose this property
Shelter Cove is a fun place to stay. Every conceivable sort of water sport, fantastic atmosphere. Seems like something is going on all the time, whether on the harbor or in Shelter Cove. Never boring. You can easily stay at Shelter Cove for a week's vacation. Between all the things to do and see, restaurants to go to and plenty of live entertainment, you don't have to leave the harbor. except of course to spend some time at our beach. But of course you will, Hilton Head has too much to offer to ignore.
What makes this property unique
Views, sunrises, sunsets and our magnificent harbor. Plus activities and events happening often on the marina. When you want to go inside, there's the big screen TV.
