Penthouse w Glorious Water Views, Near Beach, Pet Friendly
Step into paradise with this exquisitely renovated penthouse in Captains Quarters, where breathtaking water views greet you from every angle. Imagine waking up to glorious marsh views, enjoying your coffee on the balcony watching the tides rise and fall, with boats quietly passing through the harbor entrance below. Nature lovers will adore the abundant birds and dolphins who are ever-present in the marshes just outside your door, just bring some binoculars to get even closer. No doubt, this is the perfect place to start your day on beautiful Hilton Head Island.
261 Captains Quarters is a seamless blend of coastal charm and modern sophistication, boasting new living and dining room furniture, gleaming hardwood floors, a gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and an open-concept layout ideal for entertaining. The views, did we mention the views!!! Doesn't get much better than this! Except that it does... you can now bring your pup along as well. One dog, with deposit, allowed with agreement.
The primary suite is your private sanctuary complete with a luxurious King bed, new coastal furnishings and private balcony. Its’ ensuite bath has double vanity, and a spa-like tiled walk-in shower. The guestsuite, on the opposite side of the villa, offers a comfy King bed and its own beautifully updated walk-in shower.
Need to work a bit while you are here? No problem! This villa has a quiet desk nook, but only if you have to!
Located just a short ¾ mile from the beach, 261 Captains Quarters is perfectly positioned to provide serenity and convenience. You will love the proximity to beautiful Shelter Cove Marina, filled with watersports, dining, music and shopping. Rent a kayak or pontoon boat and explore the waterway, stroll the boardwalk or take an evening dolphin cruise to end the day!
Tuesday nights are special in Shelter Cove during the summer, which celebrates its' 30th year of Harborfest
in 2025, an evening extravaganza of music, kids’ activities and vendors, ending with fireworks directly in front of this villa!
Beach lovers simply hop on the Dunes Buggy or drive to the Dunes House in Palmetto Dunes where parking, dining and bathrooms are readily accessible.
Pack your flip flops, grab your suit and some binoculars ... it's time to enjoy your new favorite villa on Hilton Head Island! Welcome to 261 Captains Quarters!

⚓️ Community Information:
Shelter Cove has evolved over the years into the island’s hub. Located mid island, this
Mediterranean- styled marina (repeat winner this year for best marina on the island) has
it all: watersports, dining, shopping, entertainment and extraordinary views. No matter
the time of day or night, the wrap-around boardwalk is filled with dog walkers, families
enjoying the sights or couples sharing quiet moments on the benches located along the
walkway.
Spring and summer are when Shelter Cove really comes to life. Nightly entertainment
at the gazebo, festivals and events of every kind, including the fabulous Memorial Day
Arts Festival. Most memorable is the always popular 30 th year, Tuesday night firework
extravaganza, Harbourfest, featuring vendors, music and kids’ activities, culminating in
a great firework display at dusk. (We have heard a rumor of something special planned
for the 250 th anniversary of the USA this year!) Enjoy kayaking, rent a boat for a quick
cruise down the waterway, go cruise and watch some dolphins or just enjoy the beauty
of the “back side of the island.”
