VACAY TIME:HHI Retreat: Pool/Hot Tub/Near Beach, Pets NOW OPEN 4/25-5/16
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.

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.
The house was just as described. Perfect getaway for our family of six on a quiet street. Located close enough to bike to all of the shopping and dining in Coligny Plaza.
This VRBO had met all our expectations for the trip and had everything we needed. Great location close to Coligny Plaza and a very short walk from the beach.

Appreciate the great review....and y'all left the house in great shape; look at the calendar for end of summer/fall visit; would love to have you guys return
We enjoyed our stay here very much. Great location. Wonderful pool and backyard. Well-stocked kitchen. Great communication with owner and property manager.
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!
Everything was as described. We had a great time hanging out by the pool and hot tub. Fenced in area was great for dogs. The house was clean and comfy beds. Location was close to the beach and bike trail. We didn’t need but noticed they had a small crib and lots of baby things.
Great time, great for a family vacation! The house worked out great!

Great location, very functional home!
We loved our stay at the Mallard house! Was only a 5 min walk to the beach, 10 min walk to shopping and restaurants with lots of great bike paths. The pool was clean and well maintained and got plenty of sun. Would definitely stay again or recommend to others!

Hi Lauren,
Glad you and hubby (and precious pup) were able to stay at our home and enjoy a lot of the fun things to do on the Island!
We think the fall is a great time to be on HHI, but hope you'll think of coming back to our home any time that works out during the year!

thanks for note; glad you and your family had a great week at my home......y'all more than welcomed to come back again Cleaners said you left the house in great shape and we all appreciate that!
Everything was as described! Location was about a five minute walk to the beach and mostly shaded! The pool and hot tub were extra nice after a long day at the beach. Plenty of amenities including cooking items. Would stay again for sure!
The property is in a quiet neighborhood, easy walk to the beach, fully stocked with beach and pool supplies, kitchen and grilling needs and great accommodations for our family of 9…from ages 87-2! Laura is fantastic to work with and communicated well to made sure all of our needs were met. Highly recommend this property!
Private location - with an excellent pool. The beach walk was short with a beautiful sandy and uncrowded beach in front of the walk through. The chairs and wagon came in handy for us! I loved the convenience of coligny plaza as it was a short bike ride or walk for everything we could need.

hard to believe it's been almost a year since you were at my home; loved the review and hope you can fit another visit in this summer!!!
Lovely back yard with multiple seating areas, pool, and hot tub, and umbrellas for shade. The kitchen is nicely equipped (we like to cook) with pans for stovetop and oven baking. Plenty of room in bedrooms for our group. Nearby grocery stores and restaurants are within walking distance.
We had a great stay in Hilton Head. The house was very clean when we arrived, and the backyard and location can’t be beat. Just a short walk to the beach and into town for dinner and drinks! Laura was a pleasure to talk to and helped to make sure everything went smoothly for our trip. Would definitely return!

About the host
Hosted by Laura Holtzman
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.
