About this property

DISCOUNTS/End Unit#15/Walk to Beach/Pool/Tennis/P-ball/Bike Path/2 B/2.5 Ba/Loft

We invite you to stay awhile in our villa for six, at the Ocean Gate Villas complex of South Forest Beach.
“Beauty and the Beach” (Unit 15) is a true, private, end unit, with a side yard, large deck and on the edge of the bicycle path. We are a five-minute walk to the most beautiful beach by way of a wooded, beach path. This expansive and uncrowded beach area is nestled on the edge of Sea Pines with private homes, not hotels. From our villa, by foot or by pedal, we are near beach-side grilles and sixty restaurants within a three-mile radius. Coligny Plaza, the downtown area, is less than two miles away.
Additionally, our villa is literally steps to the pickleball and tennis court, a basketball hoop and the swimming pool. It is such a convenience enjoying these amenities in YOUR own backyard. Plus, this small, friendly establishment is uncrowded, rarely busy, and is not a noisy one.
As our name implies, this is a beautiful place and beach. Our villa is bright, light and uncluttered. You’ll appreciate the breathtaking Live Oak trees dripping in Spanish Moss as well as the (official state tree) Palmetto Palms. The living room furniture is comfortable with a Smart HD TV perched above the marble-top console. You’ll find DVD’s for both TV's on the main level and upstairs. INTERNET and cable TV are provided free of charge. The bar chairs and the high-top table are fun for gaming, socializing, and dining. Inside the teal cabinet, you’ll discover glass (and plasticware) for beer, wine and margaritas. A “Ninja” blender and a “Bullet” mixer for making smoothies or cocktails, and glass pitchers or a large thermos are provided to contain your creations. The kitchen is fully stocked with glassware, dishware, plastic containers, baking accessories, quality pots and pans and we’ve included a spice carousel. Enjoy brewed coffee (Keurig) or tea at the kitchen table with a view of the greenery and NOT a parking lot.
Additionally, on the main level, there’s a half bathroom with a vanity cabinet and a nearly-new, full size, washer and dryer in the laundry room. There you’ll find a basket of beach towels for your use. Feel free to make use of the beach chairs, and the boogie board for the young (or young at heart).
Upstairs, enter the LOFT with a single, pull-out, sofa bed and an extra-large, uncovered, picture window. Beautiful sun rays provide light to both the upstairs and the main level. This area has two, swivel chairs, a contemporary, multi-height desk and a DVD player.
In the Primary bedroom relax on the comfy Queen-sized bed and enjoy the Smart HD TV. This bedroom has plenty of storage space and has its’ own 3-piece bathroom (tub and shower, sink, commode) with vanity. Right next door is the Guest Bedroom accommodating four: a bunk bed with a single (twin) on top and a double (full sized) bed on bottom. Plus, there is a stand alone single (twin) bed in the room and plenty of storage. This room also has its’ own 3-piece bathroom and vanity.
At dusk, perhaps while you are grilling shrimp on the “barbe”, you may encounter a deer or two, if you’re very still. While relaxing on the deck, you are likely to hear the Atlantic waves when the breeze is in your direction.
A haven to Chill, or be as Adventurous as you like. HHI, is the ticket offering a vast array of activities. Come, stay awhile at “Beauty and the Beach”.
Two private designated, parking spaces directly in front of the unit. No parking pass required.

Beautiful home, great location

The location & the accommodations were perfect! The condo stayed cool; the beds were comfy; the kitchen was well equipped if you want to cook or grill on the deck. The walk to the beach was not too far. Access to the bike path was right out of the driveway to take advantage of the miles of paths to enjoy on the island. We would definitely stay here again.

Owners were wonderful to work with and very responsive. The property is outstanding. Having separate floors for the bedrooms and living area is super nice with kids and the bedroom situation is perfect. Very easy walk to the beach and the Pickleball/tennis courts and basketball hoop made our week with active kids so fun. We definitely hope to be back.

Great house and vacation

Lovely, comfortable, clean, well equipped and tastefully decorated vacation home that is a short 5 minute walk to the beach. Walking and cycling on the beach was wonderful. We also immensely enjoyed the extensive cycling paths all over the island and appreciated that most paths were under a canopy of trees. We had a lovely vacation and Kim and Kevin were excellent hosts who communicated promptly to our questions.

Lived up to the name!

Beauty and the Beach lived up to its name. It was a very nice stay. Our family had everything we needed and enjoyed our time in the villa and the close access to areas on the island that we were interested in. When we needed a break from the beach, we really enjoyed the amenities right outside the door (pool, tennis/pickle ball, bball, and relaxing on deck). All in all, it was enjoyable and comfortable. Lastly, great instructional detail that made it easy.

Perfect Location

This property is the perfect spot for a beach vacation. It was just as pictured online and very clean. There was a short walk to the beach and Sea pines and Coligny are very close as well. The pool is right outside of the unit and it was not very crowded. The complex is on the smaller side and its quiet. We would recommend this rental and would stay there again.

Excellent!!!

“Beauty and the Beach” was a perfect home away from home for our family of 6. It is perfect for its proximity to the beach (we loved the wooded walk to the beach…so pretty and relaxing…less than 5 minutes), and its uncrowded location on the island. The home has everything to meet your needs. It is very clean and well appointed. We loved the back porch, basketball goal, tennis courts, and pool areas, which are right across from the beautiful backyard. The bunk room was fun for the kids. The owners are hospitable and friendly, and very available to answer any questions or help. We highly recommend this property!

Amazing location, Wonderful Condo.

We enjoyed our visit to Beauty & the Beach and HHI. Everything was exactly as described and we absolutely loved the sweet little wooded path that took us right to the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed and the property is very well maintained, private and beautifully decorated. I really loved the art! We were very comfortable and had everything we needed during our stay. Unfortunately, we had to leave early due to the hurricane that was fast approaching HHI, and are very grateful for all the help that Kim and Kevin provided to make sure we were safe. We are looking forward to returning soon and finishing our vacation. I highly recommend Kim and Kevin’s amazing Beauty and the Beach property. Thank you again for everything!

A Perfect Place!

From the moment we walked through the door, we knew this place was perfect. The owners thought of everything and were a joy to work with. This quiet end unit condo became our 'home away from home' for over a month and we couldn't have been happier. Everything was so convenient; the beach, bike paths, pool, tennis/pickleball/basketball court, restaurants, shops, etc. etc. We lacked absolutely nothing. We were even fortunate enough to see a couple of deer on the path to the beach and some dolphins frolicking in the water. This place has it all and won't disappoint. Thank you again Kim and Kevin for sharing your wonderful place with us. God bless.

Excellent Socially Distanced Week Away

We booked this trip for our family of five in hopes of spending a relaxing week while maintaining social distancing given the current events. Our experience did not disappoint! The condo was very clean and spacious, the pictures and written details did a nice job of describing the unit. We found plenty of of silverware and utensils in the kitchen, and loved making smoothies each morning with the blender. The dining area seemed larger than pictured, and the living area was also spacious and comfortable. It was very nice to have two patio doors to access the porch. We appreciated the complex yard service that kept the grounds and pool clean, even cleaned off our patio. Having the grill to use was an added bonus. As was the beach umbrellas, towels, chairs and boogie board. The beach umbrellas could use an update to a sturdier option. The beach itself was clean and provided plenty of space for families to relax, play and bike. It did not seem crowded at all. Beds were very comfortable and blankets and pillows seemed just fine to us. We really enjoyed the natural light in the unit as well. The pool and tennis areas were never very crowded and in good repair. Our kids appreciated the newer, adjustable basketball hoop as well! The location of the unit was perfect, just outside of the Ocean Gate to Sea Pines. There is a easy, shaded walking path from the complex to the ocean (.25 miles from our door to the ocean!) Beautiful bike trail access was just outside our door, just under 1.5 miles to the Coligny area. We would recommend this place to friends and would definitely return should we decide to come back to HHI!

About the host

Hosted by Kim and Kevin

Host profile image
We are world travelers but, have returned to the most beautifully-natural island and beach for the past 30 years. We adore time with our family on the nearly private beach relaxing, walking, playing in the waves, and bike riding on this 12-mile, hard packed, white sand beach. We love the outdoors especially here where we can play at so many activities.

Why they chose this property

For the third year in a row, HHI, SC was voted the best island in the continental US by Travel and Leisure readers in the World's Best Awards (July 10, 2018).
For us the island is unique in: the 7 foot tides twice a day, dolphins, low country seafood and restaurants, southern hospitality, gorgeous Live Oak trees and Spanish moss, 200 miles of bicycle paths, bird watching, golf (galore), tennis, boating, kayaking, kiting, kite surfing, great shopping, outlet shops, sand volleyball, fishing, deep-sea fishing, fine-dining, nature reserve hiking, equestrian, art, you name it, it's here (except the snow sports)!
Accessibility to shops/eateries by bike. To historic Savannah and Beaufort they're just a short car ride away. Boat excursions to Savannah and Daufuskie Island are available, as well as dinner cruises, dolphin watching, deep sea fishing, and/or sail on the Stars & Stripes.

What makes this property unique

We love our 2-storey, "Beauty and the Beach" villa which is so close to the beach by foot and so near the amenities by bicycle. Sea Pines on a private beach is our neighbor as well as the public Coligny area considered the "downtown". "Beauty" is a true end unit, with a three-sided, green view including the usually available, tennis and pickle ball court. We are a "semi-detached" (duplex) house, ground floor so, no need to wait in a lobby for an elevator when you return from the beach, pool or grocery shopping. The pool is steps away and as this complex is small, it's not crowded. "Beauty" has large windows enabling the sun to shine on through, creating a bright and cheery ambiance. Do sit outside on the deck at night, gaze at the multitude of stars and the moon while listening to the Atlantic waves. If you're feeling fatigued from a day at the beach, toss steak and potatoes, mushrooms and onions on the grill while enjoying a beverage, enjoy your family meal inside, draw the drapes, relax and put your feet up in style and comfort, watch a good movie or play a game. We've decorated with Sea and Life in mind and, also with "beachy" colors. You'll find all creature comforts from sofas to hot baths or cool showers, to comfy beds. We've also provided a mobile, cooling, upright fan and a mobile, heat fan for extra comfort in addition to ceiling fans, central heat and air conditioning.
