The Space:

Atlantic breezes, ocean views, and one of Hilton Head Island's most coveted resort addresses - this 2-bedroom, 2-bath villa at 431 Captains Walk puts you exactly where you want to be. Perched a short walk to the beach beyond, with the Atlantic stretchd on the first floor of Palmetto Dunes Resort, you're just a few steps from the pool aning out in front of your private balcony.

 

Living space

Step inside to a spacious open-plan living area filled with natural light and framed by ocean views. The living room opens directly onto the balcony, where you can settle in with a good book, enjoy your morning coffee to the sound of the surf, or wind down after a full day on the island. Whether you're after a laid-back evening in or a fun game or movie night, the main living area has the space and comfort to make it happen.

 

Sleeping arrangements

The primary suite is generously sized and features a king bed with an en-suite bathroom. The guest bedroom offers two double beds and is served by a separate hallway bathroom - a practical setup that gives both groups their own space.

 

Kitchen & dining

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook at home when the mood strikes. Stock up at the on-site General Store - just a short walk away - and come back to prep anything from a full dinner for the group to beach picnic lunches or a grab-and-go breakfast before the day kicks off. The dining table brings everyone together when it's time to eat.

 

Bathrooms

Two full bathrooms serve the villa comfortably. Both are well-appointed with a bathtub, hair dryer, and hot water, making it easy for everyone to get ready without the morning rush.

 

Outdoor & resort amenities

The first-floor location is one of this villa's best features. Step off the balcony and within moments you're at the oceanfront pool - complete with a children's pool, multiple sundecks, and a charcoal grilling area. The beach is just beyond the pool, making it easy to move between the two throughout the day. Palmetto Dunes Resort itself offers golf, tennis, pickleball, bike paths, boating, shopping, and dining, all connected by well-maintained paths throughout the community. The Arthur Hills golf course is within walking distance, and the General Store - stocked with groceries, beverages, deli items, and what many consider the best fried chicken on the island - is close at hand. Shelter Cove Harbour and Marina, located just across from Palmetto Dunes, adds another layer of activities and dining to explore.

 

Location

Palmetto Dunes is a gated resort community on Hilton Head Island, offering a self-contained vacation experience with easy access to everything the island has to offer. Bike alongside loggerhead turtle nesting sites, watch dolphins offshore, or spot herons and ospreys in the surrounding habitat.

The property was fantastic. We loved being on the first floor with direct access outside to the pool and the beach. The interior was spotless and everything updated so nicely. We loved the master bed; it was so comfortable. (All of the furnishings were very comfy). We would love to stay here again in the future.

There was plenty of room for our group of six adults . We enjoyed riding bikes to the general store and pickle ball courts. We even saw several deer and three crocs while we were there. Wish we could have stayed longer and we will be back again.

Great Stay!

We would come back again, this is such a great condo and location. The one comment to improve on is the check in process, you have to go to their corporate location first to get the keys and that completely deflated the first day there. We spent the whole time waiting at their office vs being able to wait by the pool which is a big deal
Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023
Response from VrboOwner on 15 Dec, 2023
Dennis, we never require guests to sit at our office before their villa is ready. You are welcome to enjoy the Captain's Walk and Palmetto Dunes Amenities during the day. Check-in is at 4 pm, and the code will not work before then unless the villa is ready sooner. But there is plenty to do on the Island while you wait. We text all guests within a few days before arrival, ensuring they have all of the correct information. We always reach out to our guests if the villa is ready sooner. We also advertise the check-in and check-out times in your arrival details. Thank you for staying with us.

Perfect place on the beach

Captains Walk has it all! Perfect location right on the beach. Community is clean and scenic. The condo has every amenity we could think of or need. Decor is casual beach vibe, but very fresh and new. It’s also so close to many great restaurants within a 10 min drive. Pool was fun to hang around in too.

Lovely condo. Renovated tastefully. Very convenient for 3 year old . Step off patio to walk to pool gate or beach gate location in Palmetto Dunes nice access to food, bike riding and beach. The only reason we wouldn’t give 5 stars is fees are high in comparison to other stays. All night pool access led to people being loud to 1:30am -2am in morning. Must sleep with earplugs being off the pool. Fix those and it’s great!!

431 Captains Walk...a wonderful vacation experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love Hilton Head, the beach and pickleball. 431 is ideally located for all of them. It was very nicely appointed, roomy and had a fantastic view of the pool, dunes and even the ocean. It was a 1 minute walk to get to the ocean. Two very minor complaints are that the guest room bed mattresses are hard and someone above us snored so loud that it was disturbing in the middle of the night. Even with those complaints, I'm still giving 5 stars across the board!

Beautiful Condo in Captains Walk

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This first floor condo was the nicest we’ve stayed in at Captains Walk. The furnishing were beautiful & comfortable and the unit was very clean. The bathrooms were updated and very nice as well and kitchen (fridge, stove & washer/dryer were all in good condition. The location was perfect, right in front of the pool, so it was easy to come and go to the beach and pool with our chairs & canopy. The deck furniture could be better - the rattan chairs were uncomfortable with thin cushions, but ok. As a little added bonus, the rental company, host2coast, gave us a nice canvas beach bag and koozies for our drinks to keep. The only thing that could have made it better is if they mailed your parking passes to you ahead of time, so you didn’t have to go to their office before going to the condo. I would highly recommend host2coast and this condo.

Beautiful Remodel

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family stayed at 431 Captains Walk from May 25 through June 3. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the condo was completely remodeled- and it was done beautifully. We actually had 3 days of straight rain during the front end of our stay so it was nice to have a comfortable, clean and beautiful place to pass the time. There was an issue with the WIFI upon arrival, but the management company responded quickly and showed up within the hour we called. While it was a larger issue than we expected, Host2Coast went above an beyond to get us temporary connectivity. We have stayed in this complex for the past few years in a different condo, so we were well aware of the awesome location and proximity to pool/beach. Literally just walk down the patio steps to the pool. I have already recommended this property to to friends. The only feedback I would give, staying for 10 days, I would have loved to have had access to a full size vacuum cleaner. That did not take away from any part of our trip though! Thank you to the owners and Host2Coast for providing an affordable and beautiful place for visitors to enjoy this wonderful island!

I have stayed in condos for years and this one was one of the best! The furnishings and decor are lovely. The first floor, right by the pool was so convenient and being a minute to the beach from our unit was wonderful. The location on the island was also terrific. Kroger is right across the street along with Starbuck's. I'd never been to Shelter Cove Marina before, it's beautiful. We had 3 delicious meals at various restaurants there during our stay. Highly recommend this property!
