LOCATION - LOCATION - LOCATION
Located in the heart of Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort, come see for yourself why so many guests tell us how pleasantly surprised they were with the convenience and beauty of our location. We are near-ocean, not ocean-front but also not just resort-oriented because we are so close to the beach. A seven minute walk from our front door and your feet are in the sand.
The General Store (most guests end up LOVING the proximity to this) is a minute's walk for newspspaer, coffee, hot breakfast, lunch, forgotten items, ice cream, souvenirs and some grocery items. Robert Trent Jones Golf Course is a three minute walk and the world-ranked Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center is a two minute walk. And of course the beach is really close too...a seven minute stroll.
This unit is situated perfectly for privacy with convenience as it is extremely close to many venues, yet it is private and secluded among the scenic live oak and palmetto trees.
After a few days in our villa we think you'll agree with the ranking of Palmetto Dunes as the #1 Favorite Family Destination Vacation in America. And we hope you'll be one of our returning renters next year!
FURNISHINGS:
From the minute you enter this one-level, private unit you'll feel at home with the warm and inviting colors and decorations, which are neutral and designed to reflect the natural colors on the beach. From the elegant master bedroom to the whimisical "Lighthouse" card table, you'll realize you've made a great destination decision.
UNIT FEATURES:
This villa features vaulted and beamed ceiling over 20 feet high, ceramic tile and hardwood floors with quality rugs, maple kitchen cabinetry with stainless appliances, and new bathrooms with furniture vanities. This villa also has three sliding glass doors leading onto the back patio where you can enjoy what the Lowcountry is famous for: magnificent, sprawling, grand oak trees draped with spanish moss and plentiful palmettos.
KITCHEN:
The furnished kitchen (should you want to cook) features a full-size stainless refrigerator with an ice maker, oven with smooth top range, a built in microwave, and a dishwasher. We also have all the cookware, baking and serving dishes (complete set for 12 of oversized earthenware) you'll need in addition to the plastics you'll want for beach and pool days. And we have a great assortment of glasses to meet all your drink-serving needs. More detailed info below.
DINING ROOM:
The dining room now opens to the kitchen and family room and hosts a table that easily accommodates 8 adults with additional seating for four at the built-in bar. Come dinner time, you'll run out of guests or family members before you run out of seating! There's also a chic china cabinet that houses a set of champagne glasses and some antique white serving dishes you're welcome to enjoy.
LIVING ROOM:
The living room (600 sq. ft.) features a full size butter-leather sofa, loveseat, oversized chair and matching ottoman. The sturdy wooden coffee table is perfect for kicking up your feet or a resting place for your refreshments. Placed against the wall behind the sofa, there's a whimsical hand-painted "lighthouse" card table with matching chairs and an additional loveseat that opens to make a child's bed.
The armoire houses a large TV with built-in stereo and cable in addition to a DVD/video player. Of course we have wireless internet and local phone service. We also keep a few books handy along with a large set of child's building blocks and a game console with about 15 games in case of a rainy day. Two 8 ft. slider doors open onto the river-rock back patio and showcases the wooded resort view of palmetto trees and massive oaks.
MASTER SUITE:
The master bedroom features a comfortable, plush king size bed with a Tempur-Pedic top and an ottoman bench at the foot. Soft colors with neutral tones are used to help create a pleasing ambiance for the end of the day. Another 8 ft. slider glass door leads to the patio and frames the canopy of trees and wildlife living there. An LCD TV is mounted to the wall between two 7 ft. mirrored closet slider doors, and a full size dresser with mirror is on the adjacent wall. This spacious room also boasts an upholstered chair for additional comfort. The golden ash hardwood floors are partially covered with a warm textured rug. The master suite has private access to the master bath.
We are handicap friendly, although not fully handicap accessible.

Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Queen's Grant
I have always loved the natural beauty and wildlife of Palmetto Dunes. We knew we wanted a villa on the island that our kids of all ages (toddler-teenagers) would enjoy visiting and have plenty of activities for the teenagers to enjoy without parental worry. With the activities Palmetto Dunes offers from playing tennis, golfing, kayaking, fishing, biking and of course the beach, Palmetto Dunes was a natural fit for us. We chose this specific villa because of its location and size...we knew we would be doing some major remodeling.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
We bought this property because of the location. It's a short walk to the beach, fishing, golf, tennis courts and the General Store! We enjoy getting a hot breakfast, lunch, ice cream, candy or newspaper from the General Store daily. The younger ones LOVE the independence of being able to walk to the store without adults. We especially enjoy the wooded resort view from the back patio and how the birds wake us up in the mornings. The spacious living area is fabulous for our large family too... biggest family area we found in any PD unit.
Our favorite and closest beach access (seven minute walk). Serves lunch, has restrooms and outdoor showers. Only PD owners and their guests are permitted.
Private beach access for all Palmetto Dunes owners and guests as well as for Disney guests staying in Shelter Cove Harbour. The Disney House has restrooms, outdoor showers and they serve hot snacks a
Here you can buy a hot breakfast or lunch, ice cream, forgotten sunscreen, drinks, newspaper, coffee, icee, candy by the pound, souvenirs and limited grocery items or you can sit on the front porch an
This is my 16 year old's favorite fishing spot. He has caught many fish there, one 12 pounder! New rules say you must now throw back all caught fish.
This is the one pictured on my site and it's the one we use most, although there are five Queen's Grant pools and you're welcome to use any of them.
You can walk here for their restaurants or night life. (We enjoy the breakfast buffet.)
Owner's Map of Queen's Grant
Although I grew up on Hilton Head Island (in Sea Pines), I've never lived there since because of the many moves my husband's job has required of us. We have traveled over much of the world now and realize what a special "backyard" we've always enjoyed. As our family grew and the kids started begging to return to the beach where they could ride their bikes, we knew we had to buy our second home on the island. We all love it so much and are sure you will want to return just as we do!

Bedrooms were great, plantation is beautiful -we are looking forward to next year!! Thanks!!

our family of six was very comfortable in this beautiful condo! The large living area combined with the open concept kitchen worked great for spending time together when we were inside. The pool and tennis courts were just around the corner and the bikes were a great way to see the rest of the resort as well as go for rides on the beach! We'd love to return to Hilton Head and would definetely rent this condo again!

Our family of 6 were very comfortable at this condo rental. The place was spacious yet cozy and the view of the azalias from the 3 large sliders was georgeous! We could walk to one of the inground pools and tennis courts as it was just around the corner - the bikes were a great way to get to the beach as well as a way to check out the beautiful Palmetto Dunes resort neighborhoods. We'd love to vacation again in Hilton Head and would definetly rent this condo again.

We stayed at 506 Queen's Grant for the month of February 2010. This condo unit was probably one of the most equipped condos we've ever stayed in. The internet connection was super fast and it was nice to have the bicycles already provided. Because of colder than normal weather this February, we spent a great deal of time in the condo. It was great to have such a spacious condo. 506 Queen's Grant is in my top 3 condos.

We had a good week. We enjoyed the beach and the PD pool. We cooked seafood in each night! It was delicious! Several bad storms came through which cut down on beach time! We hope to return to HHI next year again!
