About this property

Southern Bliss on HHI: 10 Bedroom-Pool/Elevator/Palmetto Dunes Resort

Welcome to Southern Bliss on Hilton Head Island!
<*See the end for important booking requirements*>

This house is spectacular (no exaggeration). Great for large groups. Just steps to the beach at 107 Mooring Buoy. The walkway is right in front of the house: 4th row, 2 minute walk over a private path and you are at the beach!

'Southern Bliss' is one of a kind! And you interact directly with the owner of the house!
> Large kitchen and dinning area (seating for 29+).
> Two large common areas with wet bars.
> All bedrooms have their own full bathrooms (except bunk room).
> One bedroom is handicap accessible.
> Outside bar, grill area and gas fire pit.
> Large private pool/spa (heated for a fee) in private backyard setting (pool is 37'/26'x16'). Due to community rules, there is no fence around pool so be aware with young kids.
> Under the house is a semi-finished, usable area with games (ping pong, foosball, electronic dart board, corn hole, Bimini ring game). If that's not enough, discount golf and 2 hours of free tennis/pickleball court time each day!
> Update: in all first floor bedrooms, carpet was removed and replaced with LVP.

Enjoy the rockers and view of the pool on the spacious first floor deck, smaller second floor deck or listen to the sounds of the ocean from the front porch rockers. Get away from the sun in the screened in porch. Or walk down the beach to Coco's On The Beach for oceanfront drinks, food and sand volleyball. Getting stocked up is easy as there are two grocery stores 3 miles away.

Unique, non-box design makes this house warm and welcoming. Fee includes bed and bath linens plus supplies to get you started (kitchen towels, dishwasher and laundry detergent, dish soap, trash bags, toilet paper, shampoo, body lotion and soap). Great for multigenerational family reunions, golf and tennis outings, church and corporate retreats. Lightning fast 500 Mbps of WiFi to satisfy anyone's need.

Come experience the island that is consistently rated the #1 beach destination. If you have never been to Hilton Head Island, it is like nothing else. A lush sub-tropical paradise. A true island, not a thin barrier island. Which means all the activities you need (dinning, shopping, entertainment, sports) are right on the island. Boasts more amenities than any other community on the East Coast. Also unique are the tall trees right up to the beach. The island is a planned resort community which has an excellent network of bike/walking paths (65 miles worth!) and is one of the most popular activities (due to the type of sand you can even bike on the beach).

The island is comprised of private resorts. This is located in the prestigious Palmetto Dunes Resort which has well known golf (3 of them and 20 more on the island) and tennis/pickleball facilities (all within 1-2 miles). Walk along the beach for oceanfront food and drinks at The Dunes House, Coco's On The Beach or the Ocean Blu Cafe. “Travel + Leisure” has again named Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort on Hilton Head Island among the world’s best family-friendly resorts, and the highest-ranking South Carolina resort. In addition, their World's Best Award survey rated HHI the "Best Island in the Continental US" for a number of years in a row (Also for Reader's Choice Awards with Conde Nast Traveler). The beautiful beach, top-rated golf courses, highly-ranked tennis and Pickleball center, free courtesy transportation in season, leisure paths, and 11-mile lagoon system (canoe and kayak it) provide a combination not found anywhere else. Now with easy access to the expanded island airport gets you right to your vacation. Hilton Head will become your favorite beach as it has for my family.

*IMPORTANT booking requirements*:

No weddings or wedding groups are allowed (even if the wedding is held at a different location).

There is a community zero noise policy after 10pm.

To book, 45% down (plus taxes and booking fee). Final payment 90 days from arrival. Gated resort allows up to 6 vehicles (resort vehicle fee of $35 each included in price). There is additional parking 12 minutes away at the HHI airport for $10/day.

*Sunday to Sunday rental (7-night minimum) during the summer (great as you miss the heavy Saturday turnover traffic). Other check-in days okay by approval outside of the summer.

*To see accurate rates, search Sunday to Sunday, Sunday to Thursday or Thursday to Sunday (or Friday to Monday Mem/Labor Day weekends-Xmas/New Years varies). Those are the only days you can book to get the correct rate. I can custom adjust your dates, non summer, from there but those days of the week are the only ones that show the correct pricing. Prices accurate to Dec. 31st 2026 (ask about pricing beyond that).

*Ask for special rates for Church groups November through March.

*We highly encourage you to buy trip insurance in case your plans change. Large groups plan far in advance to get on everyone’s schedule. Things can change or hurricane’s can come. We have little ability to re-rent for you to get your money back for any last minute changes so best to purchase trip insurance. It costs 7% for standard insurance or 10.8% for Cancel For Any Reason insurance (covers you for everything as you do not need a reason). After you book I can send a link to these options.

Great family getaway

House is clean and well appointed - we had a wonderful family reunion/vacation - mixed group of many adults and 6 children, all 5 and under. Having two of each appliance was so key, and the kitchen is well stocked for cooking. The beach access is right across the street and the beach is gorgeous. We will hopefully be coming back!

We had the best company retreat!

We hosted our company retreat here and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The home was spotless, spacious, and perfectly set up for both group activities and private work sessions. Having direct beach access just across the street was a huge bonus, making it easy for our team to relax and recharge between meetings. We especially appreciated the variety of spaces around the property for breakout meetings and calls, which made our work sessions productive and comfortable.The large game room on the first level was a hit with everyone—ping pong, corn hole, and other games provided plenty of fun after hours. The property truly offered the ideal balance of work and play. We highly recommend this home for family gatherings or small company retreats and would absolutely book again for future events.

Thanksgiving Fun

This house was perfect for our multi-generational family! The close proximity to the beach made it easy for our youngest members to enjoy some time in the sun. Beautiful house and neighborhood—and the host, Greg, was very easy to work with and very quick to respond! We would definitely stay here again.

10+++

I organized a sibling reunion for my family of 9. Pressure? Oh yes but the house exceeded all of our expectations. Well appointed and beautifully decorated, this house has everything you need for a large gathering. Other years we’ve rented large homes with plenty of bedrooms but the living space was too small. This home has ample living and dining space The state of the art kitchen features 2 of every appliance and all the tools and conveniences to host wonderful gourmet meals. The porch was fantastic and again large enough for all of us to sit outside. We didn’t use the pool/jacuzzi but were thrilled it was there The homes proximity to the beach was a huge plus Beach access was literally across the street. ! The owner of the home was very responsive to our questions. We all had a ball and would highly recommend this property. I can’t think of a single negative. Seriously a 10++++ property!!

Great for our family of 10 couples and 3 babies

We stayed at Southern Bliss for a family reunion from October 31 to September 7, 2024. The house was spacious and very comfortable for our twenty adults, a two-year-old and two babies. We could not believe how well the house was designed. The architect thought of everything a group would want, and the owner furnished it with all we needed. We ate most of our meals at the house. The kitchen contained two refrigerators, stoves, microwaves and dishwashers. An icemaker furnished plenty of ice. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, pans, cooking utensils and dinnerware. The dining room accommodated our group and could have handled more. A commercial washer and dryer on each floor made it possible to do laundry as needed. We were pleased with the linen service and comforters on the beds. A good supply of soaps and toiletries were provided. Supermarkets were nearby. We made great use of the great room on each floor, the decks with rockers and screened in porches. We spent a lot of time on the ground level where we could play table tennis, darts and corn hole, cook on a large gas grill, and use the bar for snacks. Some of us spent many hours in the pool and hot tub which lent to many conversations. The beach was nice, private, convenient and not overcrowded. Palmetto Dunes is exceptionally beautiful with plenty of walking/biking trails and plenty of pickleball courts within walking distance. We were pleasantly surprised to find in the ground floor closet beach chairs, wag

Five sisters and portions of their families decided on Hilton Head this year. The house was great fitting us fine. The area was filled with things to do; golf, putt-putt, fishing, shopping and the pool was a favorite. We traveled from Ohio-Texas-Florida to SoCarolina and had a very enjoyable time.

Fabulous week on Hilton Head at Southern Bliss

We had high expectations for our annual family reunion on Hilton Head. Happily, they were met and then some. Palmetto Dunes is an expertly run organization, a beautifully maintained community with outstanding access to top-notch tennis, pickleball, beach, shopping and restaurants. We all agreed that Southern Bliss was the nicest property we’ve ever rented. From the 10 bedrooms to the well-equipped kitchen with dual major appliances, two laundries, plenty of big screen TV’s, ample dining spaces, gorgeous pool, game areas and elevator, it is a magnificent vacation property and we will be back.

Fantastic House

Great house for a large family get together. It lived up to all its listed attributes. Each bedroom is of more than sufficient size for the number of beds. With two tables that each seat 10 and an additional table for five all in close proximity to each other in the kitchen family dining was very enjoyable. The kitchen has more dishes, utensils etc. than you will ever use and there are two of all major appliances. The walkway to the beach was right across the street and less than a three minute walk. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great Week

Overall, the property was very nice and the house was in great condition. There are a couple of drawbacks: 1) Juggling the car passes was not an easy chore. If you have that many rooms in a house, you have to allow for more vehicles. We had families coming in from seven different states and it was inconvenient. 2) The walkway down to the beach needs to be changed. When sand gets on the walkway, it becomes very, very slick. My 89 year old mother was at the very top of the ramp and her feet just flew out from under her. Luckily, all she had was a sore tail bone, and it could have been much worse.

This large and spacious house was perfect for our extended family vacation. Well-appointed, designed for large groups, we loved the 2-of-everything kitchen and had assigned nights for cooking, the beach is minutes away down a beach access path, the lower level of the house is filled with games and the pool and hot tub were the highlight for the kids. Palmetto Dunes and HHI provided all the tennis, pickleball and golf our family could handle. Do rent bikes. They'll deliver and pick up and it's the best way to get around the island. Did I mention how responsive the Owner was before, during and after the rental? 5 stars to him.
