About this property

VACAY TIME:HHI Retreat: Pool/Hot Tub/Near Beach, Pets, Last Minute Rentals Now!

Welcome to our Hilton Head Island oasis – a beautifully renovated, pet-friendly sanctuary designed with families and groups in mind. Situated just a leisurely 4-minute stroll from the relaxing sands of Hilton Head's North Forest Beach, our home is a haven for those seeking the coastal experience. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of our private pool, let stress melt away in our rejuvenating hot tub, and savor the ease of being a stone's throw from Coligny Circle's bustling array of fun events and local charm. Adorned with over 100 glowing reviews, this picturesque abode seamlessly blends comfort with the vibrant spirit of island living.

Our home's heart, a recently updated kitchen, features quartz countertops, modern cabinets, and appliances no more than three years old. The inviting space is perfected with stylish pendants and swivel upholstered stools, creating an ambiance that's both elegant and welcoming. Fresh paint graces the living, dining, and kitchen areas, complementing the new king-sized bed in the master bedroom, now refreshed with wood flooring and a serene color palette.

This spacious, four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence boasts a heated pool* and a luxurious hot tub, complete with 37 jets and LED lighting, promising an idyllic escape. The one-level layout ensures easy accessibility and includes two master suites, two guest rooms, and a shared bath, all featuring contemporary wood floors. Updated vanities and lighting enhance the hall and queen suite bathrooms, adding a touch of sophistication.

The expansive living room, equipped with a 46-inch widescreen HDTV, merges seamlessly with the dining area and newly fitted kitchen. Our commitment to excellence is evident in the continuous deep cleaning, fresh paint, and installation of classy shutters and custom Roman shades that adorn our windows.

Outside, the private backyard offers an expansive deck surrounding the pool and hot tub, an elevated flagstone patio ideal for grilling (featuring a new Weber propane grill), and a delightful sitting area adorned with rattan furniture and vibrant red cushions – a perfect spot to relax under the new umbrella on warm days.

Freshly painted in a soothing blue with crisp white shutters and complemented by new landscaping, the exterior of our home invites you to explore the local offerings. Conveniently located, a walk or bike ride takes you to the heart of Coligny Plaza. For bike rentals, contact FOREST BEACH SURF & CYCLE and mention the "Holtzman discount."

Accommodating up to eight guests with one king, two queens, and two twin beds, our home is ideal for family gatherings or group vacations. Additional amenities include a baby crib, highchair, booster, and play pack.

* Please note, the pool can be heated for an additional charge.

This property is ideal for families travelling with little ones. There were many features such as crib and highchair that made it easier for us. There were also sand toys and inflatables that could be used at the beach or in the pool. The pool area is great for lounging and staying out of the direct sun if that is what you wanted to do. There are many umbrellas and various seating options. Although it was in the 90's and we did not go to the beach that much, the beach access is a short 10 minute walk and it is well worth the walk. The host was fantastic.

The Mallard property was perfect for our group of 4, needing 3 separate bdrms. The kitchen is well stocked and the large patio has ample seating to enjoy the pool, hot tub or a beverage. New washer/dryer was appreciated and it’s a short, easy 1.5-ish block walk to the beach. The house is well cared for and well loved due to its age and the salty, humid environment but just adds to the HH charm.

Great place to stay for our family of 6 adults and 1 toddler. Plenty of room for everyone, well stocked kitchen, backyard was an oasis of its own and the beach was a short walk away. Our host was always just a text away. We did get notice that the hot tub heater was on order, however the water was very warm anyway so we were able to use it, no problem. The home was very clean and comfortable. The backyard chairs just needed a quick brushing which is understandable considering the beautiful canopy of trees. Highly recommend.

Beautiful backyard with a short easy walk to the beach. Hot tub was lovely during November and pool heated such that the kids swam. Well stocked kitchen and I really liked that there was an extra fridge in the side room with washer/dryer. One thing to note is the chairs for the beach are what we consider "bag chairs" not true beach chairs. We had a wonderful time and absolutely would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Laura Holtzman

Host profile image

We are "nomads" who have lived all over the country.....before having 2 kids and afterwards; able to travel all summer now and come "home" to Hilton Head Island. Met the best and neatest folks we've ever had a chance to meet here on Hilton Head so we feel very blessed. Although we live here "part-time" we consider this our home and glad the folks we have rented to over the years have taken such good care of it during their visits.

Why they chose this property

Only 2 blocks from ocean, but in a laid-back, friendly neighborhood; large backyard. We started with a "lovely" swamp of a backyard, but quickly got to work to create a true oasis for us and guests! with good sized pool (can be heated); standalone 37-jet hot tub; and lots of different sitting/dining/tanning areas for all guests along with grill.
