Welcome to 10 Iron Clad, a beautiful multi-level, ocean front home in the award-winning Palmetto Dunes Resort.

We have been renting beach houses on the ocean for a few years, and this was hands down the best ever. The owner was fabulous to work with. Any questions we had, she got back to us immediately while being very accommodating and kind. The house layout, decorating, and accommodations were top notch. Beautiful views of the ocean from the kitchen, dining, from several of the bedrooms. We had 8 children ranging in age from 11 mo to 9 years old and they were thrilled with this house, pool, and location to the beach. The parents were thrilled because even if they had little ones that they had to watch inside, they could easily watch all activity on the beach and participate while everyone in the pool. As grandparents we were thrilled because we could be part of all the action. The pool was a good size and heated nicely so that we could enjoy morning, noon, and night which was a game changer for the kids. They loved, loved the pool. We went in late March / early April so they ocean water was too cold to swim in; however, the kids enjoyed anyways running back and forth into it. The beach was beautiful and not very crowded allowing lots of games without bothering anyone. Overall, beautiful house, wonderful pool, fabulous accommodations, and exceptional nice owner to work with. Would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a place to stay.

Beautiful
We had an amazing week in this beautiful home. It was the perfect spot for a family beach vacation
The upper level deck has one of the best ocean views in HHI - we had 11 adults and 4 kids (we brought a air mattress) - plenty of rooms and every one was comfortable - we'll stay here again
My husband and myself and our three children’s family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, well furnished and the beds were comfortable. It was a lovely family vacation with wonderful memories!!
This was a perfect house, perfect location, celebrating a family members 90th bday. It accommodated a family ranging in age from 1 year to 90! Being on the beach made our stay in HH even better than all the other times we've been here. Photos on line defined the house perfectly.
We have been vacationing at Hilton Head for many years and would say this was one of our favorite houses. The layout was great and the views were spectacular! Kitchen was well equipped. The only thing that would have made our stay better would be the use of the elevator to take luggage, groceries, etc. up three flights of stairs. We did not have access to the elevator even though one was there.
A wonderful house with an incredible ocean view . House is beautifully and comfortably furnished. The kitchen is well equipped. Great for an extended family gathering .

Unforgettable Family Trip
The moment you walk in the door you realize that you never want to leave. The location of the home and the step out to the beach is amazing. Had a great time 4 adults and 4 kids. It would be nice to have 2 suites and blinds to close at night during the Turtle nesting season so you don’t feel like you will disturb the turtles. Definitely a unforgettable family trip🏝️
We were lucky to have stayed at this beautiful beachside home for a few days. The house was great, and clean, and had a well outfitted kitchen for all our cooking and enjoying needs. The fabulous views of the ocean are seen from many of the bedrooms and exceptional from the living spaces. The area had so many activities we didn't nearly have enough time to try all we wanted to. We'll hopefully be back!
We have taken several family vacations with our kids and grandkids and have been blessed to have been able to stay in some fabulous houses and at some wonderful locations. I think my sons text to me says it all - "Best family vacation ever for us".
This house is not only first class, but the layout is perfect for a multi-family vacation. Cannot say enough good things.
Just left 10 Iron Clad after a week with family. Weather was not good but we had a fun week being together. I recommend a new dishwasher and all new pots and pans. One of the downstairs king beds was very uncomfortable. Pool needed a major cleaning. The walk from the house to the beach was so easy and we loved that! Rocking chairs on back porch were great too! Views were awesome and dolphins greeted us each morning.

Thank you for your review! I am glad that you enjoyed the house and sorry the weather did not cooperate. I apologize for the pots and pans. The last time we were there in the spring we had purchased extra pots and pans but clearly some have not made it through the rental season. Also, the dishwasher is also not our favorite, but since it is custom fit for our cabinets, we are having a hard time finding a dishwasher that is not on back order. Thanks again for staying at our home!
The house was lovely and an excellent location. Much to our surprise the garage fridge was broken therefore we lost lots of food such as fresh shrimp, chicken and ground meat. Although it was not advertised the house had an elevator which would have been perfect for my mother who suffers from COPD but it was also inoperable.

Thank you for taking the time to review our home. I am sorry to hear the garage fridge was not working for you. We have had several guests stay after your stay and no one has informed us the garage fridge is not working. I am surprised the two additional full-sized refrigerators inside the house were not able to accommodate your food. We do not advertise the elevator on VRBO. We no longer allow guests to utilize the elevator as prior guests have misused the elevator creating dangerous situations.
The views from this property were sweeping and stunning. Interior was tastefully decorated. There was plenty of space for a large family, comfortable seating and good flow, and sound-proofing between floors was good (we had an infant and 3 yo with us). Location was excellent, on an uncrowded stretch of beach, but also very close to grocery stores and other necessities. We were simultaneously "away from it all" but close to essentials. Internet and TV service worked well. Wish we could have connected to Sonos system (perhaps we needed more information?), and we've learned to bring some of our own kitchen essentials (coffee grinder, rubber scraper/spatula, lettuce spinner), but it was definitely an excellent home for a family gathering and we will select it again.
I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for hosting us at your beautiful home at 10 Iron Clad. The location on the beach was stunning, and the amenities provided made our stay incredibly comfortable and enjoyable.
Your home was the perfect setting for our family gathering of 16, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you for your generosity and for creating such a wonderful environment for our family to make lasting memories.
From the moment we walked into your home, until the moment we left, we were mesmerized, taking in the views from the floor to ceiling wall of windows, allowing us to capture the beauty of every moment of each day.
If was a vacation filled with wonder, of new discoveries, of love and laughter, your home couldn’t have been more perfect.
Thank you for the memories,
The Gaul family (all 16) of us
This was our first visit to HHI and although we were unsure of what to expect with the location and beach, this home ended up being by far the most wonderful we’ve ever stayed and for a multitude of reasons. Firstly, I have to say we have been traveling with VRBO for many years and this was the first time we didn’t feel like we just booked a house, but were being hosted warmly in a HOME by it’s thoughtful owner. Kimberly was immediately available from the moment of our arrival through our last day and not only was her communication phenomenal— but we all felt how deeply she cared about our experience in the home as a whole. I have never had a stay experience quite like it. The home itself was perfection: the beds were comfortable, the lay out was incredible, the house was immaculately cleaned, rocking chairs on the upper balcony were an awesome touch, the view from upstairs living room is unparalleled, oversized chair napping area: wow, the location ended up being a gem— far enough away from the busier/more crowded parts of the beach so each day we basically had it to ourselves— it was simply was amazing. The only thing I would note, as we were unaware of the layout, was that the bunk room (with the queen bottom) is only accessible by passing through another bed room— there is no private way in/out. For a family with younger children—those two rooms would’ve been perfect! Thank you Kim from the bottom of our hearts for such a beautiful and memorable stay in your lovely home!
We worked with Kimberly and she was excellent. The house was beautiful but a few things that would have been nice is different. The main problem was the elevator. My husband has cancer and would have been great if we could have used it and we had suitcase’s that would have be helpful . I didn’t realize till we checked in it wasn’t an option to use at least without permission. We have rented houses before with elevators ( and have one in our home)
Also by the pool one of the clean out baskets had a dangerous hole above it. There was a 3-4 inch lip above the basket and if you weren’t watching you would step inside and could have broken your ankle. The last thing was and I know out of your control was the house next door was being built and was noisy and dirty. If you wanted to sleep in on your vacation that was not easy. The pool and backyard was one of the best we have stayed at and very private. We did pay for heat which was nice but probably wasn’t needed for the whole week. Very well stocked kitchen, beds were comfortable and house very nicely decorated. The hot water tank was irritating because you had to wait3-4 minutes for it to heat up each time including showers. All in all was a very nice house. The amount to rent was a little high.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and positive feedback. Your comments are valued and appreciated.
Our elevator can be a bit tricky for those not used to using this style of elevator. We had a guest lock themselves in the elevator and therefore do not offer this as a standard option any more.
Our new pool deck and patio were installed 2 weeks prior to your stay and it looks wonderful! Unfortunately due to a supply issue, the contractors were unable to fit that last piece before your stay. It has already been corrected!
The house next door has been under construction for nearly 2 years and is almost complete. It is way past their projected complete date! PD enforces strict work hours. We are so sorry it disrupted your stay!
With a house that sleeps so many, we decided last year to install the tankless hot water heaters. We decided that the 3 minutes that it takes to warm up is worth it so nobody will ever run out of hot water!
We look forward to hosting you and your family again soon!
We spent a week at 10 Ironclad with my family to celebrate my 70th birthday. We were a group of 8 adults 6 children( ages 5-12). There were enough beds for all and each bedroom had an attached bathroom. The house was beautifully decorated and had an amazing kitchen! The kitchen was very well equipped.
The best part of the house was that it had two living rooms, one upstairs near the kitchen and the other downstairs opening to the pool. We found this very convenient for our large group and never felt crowded. The downstairs living area had a large refrigerator. There was a Foosball game which was a great hit!
The owner was very responsive to my questions. We arrived one day early and stayed at the Omni so we were able to beat the crowds on check-in day. The gate passes are $25 cash and only 4 are allowed. They can be picked up early but entry to the house is only at 4:30 pm. The house has two large garages.
We got take out most days and I would recommend the following restaurants as they were great-
CASA BLANCA-delicious Mediterranean
BULLIES BBQ- the best beef brisket and sides!
GENERAL STORE- Fried chicken, go early, they run out by noon! YUM!
GIUSEPPI’S PIZZA- very good!
Trash pick up is on Wednesday and Saturday
There were a few floats also in the garage.
The house has a lot of steps, the master bedroom and kitchen are on the upper level, the rest of the 5 bedrooms are downstairs, and front entry is also with steps.
Beautiful view from the upstairs balcony .
MY FAMILY HAS BEEN TO HILTON HEAD SEVERAL TIMES THIS WAS DEFINETLY OBE OF THE CLEANESS AND NICEST HOUSES WE HAVE STAY IN HOPE TO STAY THERE AGAIN OUR NEXT TRIP
Fantastic house for a family vacation. Beautiful views of the ocean with a nice, more private spot on the beach. Great pool and interior as well. We had a great time and would definitely return!
