SUMMER...Hilton Head Retreat: Pool/Hot Tub/Stroll to Beach, Pets...GREAT RATES

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.

Beautiful house in the perfect location. Quick drive to all the shops and restaurants at Coligney Plaza but far enough from there that you practically have the beach to yourselves. The house was spacious, spotless, and stocked with everything you could possibly need. The outdoor area and the pool were incredible. We had so much fun back there. The property owner and manager were both very attentive answering questions and making sure we had everything we needed. Be sure to take the young kids to Lowcounrty Celebration Park right down the road across from Coligney Plaza. For the big kids (and adults) head up to the docks near Hudson’s and Skull Creek restaurants and watch the fishermen feed the scraps from their catch to the sharks around 5pm. Great vacation. Wish it didn’t have to end.

HHI 2025

We chose to return to this house for the 2nd time after a great stay a couple of years ago. Our family has been visiting Hilton Head Island for the past 25 years and this spot was ideal. Close enough to the Coligny for a daily morning walk to the Piggly Wiggly but far enough that the short walk to the beach gave easy access to plenty of room without a crowd. The patio & pool area is ideal for our party of 8 - including two kids and the pool was a good combination of sun & shade. Lots of areas to hang together or sit away from the group for some quiet time. Nice but not overly fancy so it felt like home. Strongly recommend!

Just what we needed!

Backyard is an oasis of different seating areas, shady and sunny! Home is well stocked for every need. Plates and cups for pool area and regular plates for inside. Both manager and owner were extremely easy to work with and quick with responses. Easy short walk to the beach, with plenty of supplies for the beach. Wagons, chairs, and floats. Very enjoyable!!!

We had a wonderful time. The house was in a perfect location. We had a few small issues but they were taken care of quickly and the communication with the owner and property manager was top notch. The only down-side we had was that we felt that it would have been nice to have more than one sink in at least one, if not two of the bathrooms. That was really the only down-side. The pool and back-yard area was amazing and we spent a majority of our time (that we were not on the beach) in the backyard. The kitchen was well stocked and the extra room with an extra fridge was great to have! Would recommend to friends and family.

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.
