Guest Access:
We want your stay to be all about the memories - not the paperwork. So let's get the small stuff out of the way early and get back to what matters: your trip!
Every reservation is required to complete a quick Guest Portal before check-in. It's a secure external link we'll send you shortly after booking, and it's also where you'll find all your check-in details - including your all-important door code.
The pre-approval process takes just a few minutes and covers three simple steps:
1. Sign the Rental Agreement - a quick electronic signature, no printing required.
2. Guest verification - a fast, standard guest verification.
3. Pick your coverage: Damage Waiver (a small, non-refundable fee covering eligible accidental damage during your stay - our guests' favorite option, since it takes the stress out of minor mishaps) or Security Deposit (a fully refundable hold, released after checkout as long as everything's in order).
We'll email your secure portal link before arrival - just a few minutes of your time for a much smoother check-in. Thanks for helping us keep things safe and simple. We can't wait to host you!
The Neighborhood:
Palmetto Dunes is an oceanfront resort and the ultimate vacation destination. An 11-mile lagoon provides a leisurely day of canoeing or kayaking. Golf, tennis, biking & more! This is a gated community.
Getting Around:
Biking is very popular on Hilton Head Island, known for the many award-winning trails. There are recommendations for bike rental companies within your Guest App. You can reserve in advance and they will deliver to you or bring your own! Almost everything you will need is within walking distance, so bring your walking shoes! There are free trolley stops at various locations throughout the island.

Our family had a wonderful stay at this home. The pool was our 2‑year‑old’s absolute favorite, and the house had plenty of space so everyone could relax without feeling crowded. The view of the lagoon was beautiful, and the walk to the beach was incredibly quick and easy. We loved our time here!

Thank you for your review, Kevin! Thanks for your feedback about the bed. I will share this with our team, and we will look into this. We hope that you will come back again! - Kristen with host2coast
Beautiful property! The pool and lagoon view were our favorites! Seeing the deer every day was a real treat as well. The house had everything we wanted/needed. The cleaning products and toiletries along with beach towels was unexpected as other properties do not provide. We are hoping to return thus property next year. Very well kept and very relaxing!
101 Mooring Buoy is a hidden gem tucked down a long private drive. The views of the lagoon and dock are magnificent. The owners/hosts thought of everything—from their welcome package and eco friendly starter laundry packs to generous supply of beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, & great array of toys. The home is immaculate and provided plenty of room for a family of five to spread out and also come together for meals and board games. The beach is just a short walk! All around a wonderful stay. Can’t wait to return next year!

The property, location and management company couldn’t have been better! The property has a beautiful pool and hot tub, backs to a beautiful lagoon (with a great dock that we all enjoyed everyday) and is located so close to the quiet beach (5 min or less walk). This property was perfect for our family of 6 plus infant. The owners have done a great job it’s the property and from what I understand they have more improvements in the works. The management company was very responsive to a few minor issues we had. We hope to be able to spend a week next summer at this home !

Jill, thank you for this excellent and detailed review! We are happy you enjoyed your time at this home. Please reach out to us when you are ready to rebook! - Kristen with host2coast
The location and surrounding are quiet and peaceful. The house inside is beautiful and well-care for. Host2Coast was quick to respond to the couple issues we had with ants and bees. One thing (that didn’t impact our stay) would be that the outside of the house could use some TLC (paint, clean out gutters, etc). Overall…. Great place to relax and enjoy Hilton Head!

Amy, thank you for this wonderful 5* review of 101 Mooring Buoy! The owners actually have plans to paint the entire exterior of the home this fall. We hope to host you again, Susan at host2coast
The location of this property is one of the best we’ve gotten in Palmetto Dunes. It is on the wide part of the lagoon and the water views and sitting dock, were one of our favorite, most peaceful spots. The pool and the rest of the outdoor space were great for eating, playing and even doing a little work. The walk to the beach was supper short and the beach was almost empty at both the closest access points. One of the best spots on the Island. Easy bike rides all around and two the general store. The house itself was more than enough room for two families and still had sitting areas and storage to share. Would definitely return to this property.

Christina, WOW, thank you for this wonderful 5* review of 101 Mooring Buoy! We agree, it is one of the best spots on Hilton Head! We look forward to hosting you again. Susan at host2coast
We really enjoyed our stay. The property management company Host2Coast had equipped the house with a nice welcome package of arrival necessities and extras as well. They were very efficient and friendly. We wish we could have used the Spa (we were willing to pay for that…it was February) but we were unable to get it to work despite the pool company saying it was ready to go. We appreciated use of the beach chairs and pool/ beach towels. Also liked the keypad entry rather than needing to carry a key around. We are coming back in late July with our 3 Grandchildren and are looking forward to another fun week!

Kathy, we're thrilled to know you are coming back in July. Your grandkids are going to have lots of fun! Thank you for the review and for being such lovely guests!
We had a great time at this house. The amenities were wonderful, all the TVs were setup and ready to access with ease. We love that the property was set back off the road while still being on the main drag of Mooring Buoy within Palmetto Dunes.
We heated the pool and the temperature was perfect and consistent. Check-in and communication with the property manager was seamless.
The only critiques we had were that the property lacks coziness. The couches, chairs and particularly the mattresses were all very hard and the master shower didn't generate a lot of heat. But other than these issues, it was a wonderful stay.

We really enjoyed staying at this property! Very spacious, clean and nicely decorated. Upstairs bedrooms and bathrooms were a bit smaller, though we really enjoyed the spacious downstairs. Loved the pool and outside areas including the chairs on the dock and hammocks! We saw herons, egrets, flying fish, osprey and quietly floating alligators daily in the lake. Beach was literally right across the street and seemed to be a less busy area and even though we heard crowds were bad this year, we didn’t find the beach crowded here at all. Kids enjoyed biking to the general store in Palmetto Dunes and restaurants, mini golf, Shelter Cove Marina (where we booked a boat trip), and shops were all close and convenient right outside Palmetto Dunes. Literally the only thing we could have asked for were just a few more spices (aside from just salt and pepper) and some dish towels. Otherwise, perfect!

Elizabeth, you gave us a spectacular review of 101 Mooring Buoy and made us smile! We have to be careful with leaving spices in a villa or house as they don't retain freshness very well. Many of our guests bring their favorite spices from home, or they place an order in advance of their stay with the Low Country Grocery Runner found on our hospitality app. It was a pleasure hosting your stay and we hope you will come back again!

Reviewer Comments:
My family and I stayed here for two weeks. Not only was our stay amazing but from start to finish, Host2Coast was amazing. The moment we arrived at the house we were greeted by a beautiful canvas tote filled with local goodies. The house was extremely well stocked with everything we could need. Having the huge beach towels was a plus. The house pool was possibly the most fantastic thing! My kids loved it so much and it was a great reprieve from the heat!The proximity to the beach is a quick two minute walk. Having the lagoon behind us was a plus for fishing, bird watching and reading a book. We couldn’t have picked a better location. My only wish is that it had a kind bed upstairs as well. We will definitely be staying here again and will definitely be booking through Host2Coast. Their service is impeccable!
Beautiful property, great location. Everything was lovely!

I was more impressed with the home than I could have hoped for. The panoramic views out back were more than the pictures can express. The home far exceeded my expectations. I walked to the beach barefoot, it’s a very short walk. I also could walk out the back door and fish the lagoon. The star of the home , for me, was the pool area. What a fine relaxing gem
