What a wonderful week our family (15 of us spanning 3 generations) had at Southern Comfort! The house is well deserving of its name!! We did not want for anything! You've heard it said that it's all about LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION and Southern Comfort has the perfect location! We were close enough to the things we wanted to do in Sea Pines (by driving or by biking on the awesome bike trails) and the proximity to the ocean is incredible! Thank you, Mark and Nancy, for providing such a comfortable and relaxing beach home! God bless!!

I have been marketing leisure travel and luxury destinations for over ten years, and am comfortable in saying that in all of my experience, both professional and personal, that Southern Comfort was perfect for our family vacation. Its quiet and exclusive lagoon setting within the most sought after part of the island, Sea Pines, makes this the best of the best. From this central location there was unsurpassed accessibility to attractions, services, restaurants and more. The home is a relaxing mixture of comfort, utility, and fun decor features, which honestly earn the designation Southern Comfort. Gleaming white beach, pool and patio, broad porch, interior gathering areas and private rooms all combined to make this vacation home exceedingly distinctive. Mark and Nancy Toro, thank you. Your commitment to excellence and attention to detail are very apparent, and was well appreciated by everyone in our family.

I've just returned from Southern Comfort (begrudgingly), where I facilitated a corporate retreat for my company's top executives. A month earlier, I participated in an offsite meeting here with a different group. This is an AMAZING place. The house is welcoming, warm and spacious. The furnishings and accessories are exquisite. My favorite place was the large,(huge, really) round diningroom table . The intimacy from our meals together carried over to the meetings and we accomplished more than I anticipated. I attribute that to the "feel" of this special location. Both groups were comfortable and happy. After morning strolls on the beach, we held strategic planning meetings in the living room. Then, we were off to the golf course in the afternoon for a team scramble. The atmosphere was conducive to both team-building (including bocce on the beach) and socializing (great sound system) and my team bonded like never before. With all that was happening, we each still had time for quiet reflection and relaxation. This is a very versatile setting and exceeded my expectations in every way. We'll definitely be back !!

My family and I had a wonderful time vacationing at Southern Comfort the week of my sister's wedding. Having visited Hilton Head 25+ times, I can honestly say that Southern Comfort was the nicest accommodation we've ever had the pleasure of staying in on the island. While there was plenty to do in Sea Pines and the rest of the island, we ended up spending the bulk of our time at the property-particularly in the private courtyard enjoying the heated pool and hot tub. We also spent time with family and friends on the large screened-in porch and the private deck overlooking one of the most attractive stretches of beach on the island. The house was well equipped and was very comfortable- lots of charm and a continuously pleasant breeze from the nearby ocean. Be sure to bring your favorite CDs or ipod to use with one of the two surround sound theatre systems at the house. The master suite was magnificent. We practically had to drag my dad out of the steam room in the master bath on check-out day. Our experience with the owners and property manager was also very positive. On one day during our visit, the hot tub started to drain unexpectedly following a routine maintenance visit from the pool company. We immediately called Richard who dropped what he was doing to solve the problem. He was at the property within minutes with the pool people to resolve the issue.

Hi, Mark and Nancy - Just wanted to tell you that we had the greatest time in Hilton Head at your beautiful home. It was wonderful to be with old friends in such a relaxed and engaging environment. We truly enjoyed our entire time there. The house is really spectacular. We were taken with all of the little touches that you've built into the place. The views, the flow, the relationship with the beach and ocean - and it didn't hurt that we had perfect weather all week. Everyone loved your furnishings, and we were grateful that all the furniture and gathering spots were so consistently comfortable. We barely left the house but for bike rides and walks around the lagoon. Please thank Richard for his hospitality during our stay. He was quick, accessible and courteous. And thanks for having the alligator hang out on the lagoon bank. That was one picture that my daughter made sure to take to school with her. We've had one or two folks inquire about futures when they heard about how pleased we were. If they get serious, I'll pass them along to you. We look forward to returning at some point, as the opportunities allow. Just wanted you to know everything went so well. All the best, Josh

What a terrific vacation spot - quiet & beautiful. Southern Comfort is well-designed & spacious - perfect for several couples to share or families with kids. The outdoor entertainment areas are wonderful - the pool, the large patio with the outdoor fireplace & grill, the screened-in porch, the beach access. It's all good!

I can't imagine a more perfect beach home! It's close to numerous restaurants and amenities but myself and the other guests didn't want to leave the house. It has a pool,hot tub, private walkway to a beautiful, quiet beach and the house itself is spacious, comfortable and impeccably decorated, it was more than we expected! Thanks!

We stayed at Southern Comfortm during the week of Aug 14-21, 2004. We have stayed at several homes in Hilton Head, Myrtle Beach and Emerald Isle. Each house we thought could not get any better. However, Southern Comfort topped them all. The home is truly beautiful, The pool and the hot tub were the best we have ever seen! The Sea Pines beach is by far the best in Hilton Head, and the privacy of the beach was great. Truly an outstanding home for a relaxing family vacation. We are definitely returning here!!! (The alligator in the lagoon in front of the house is an added bonus for kids!!)

This is a delightful setting for a family getaway, relaxing, private, and extremely well appointed. 52 steps via private, secluded entry to a wide, long and uncrowded beach. Close to golf, dining, biking and other activities. We enjoyed it so much, that we are returning next year. June 25, 2004.

Our family (four generations) stayed at Southern Comfort for a week in May 2004. We had a marvelous time! The house was more that we expected. Well appointed and in a quiet part of the island. All amenities were closely available - but no local traffic. The house has everything one would need plus state-of-the-art TV equipment and appliances. The master bedroom and bath are extremely nice. The pool and hot tub were heavily used and the beach is at the end of the private walkway. All in all a great place to vacation on Hilton Head. Owners were friendly and helpful.
