EXCEPTIONAL Large and Private Villa in Palmetto Dunes Resort!! 5-Star Reviews!!!
Welcome to our spacious, remodeled and designer decorated 2nd floor, 2-bedroom Villa in the award winning, prestigious Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort on Hilton Head Island. Palmetto Dunes was named one of the Top 25 Family Resorts in the World by Travel and Leisure Magazine. Our villa is located right on the golf course in the extreme southern corner of St. Andrews Common which is furthest from roads, and other units. It has the absolute best views and it's in the quietest, most private corner of St. Andrews Common. The commercial vacation rental companies all want to list our villa, but we decided to list on VRBO and give you a MUCH better price and MUCH better responsiveness.
NOTE: This is NOT the much smaller 2 bedroom unit with the small deck and the 2nd bedroom in a loft with a spiral staircase. Ours is the largest and most luxurious 2-bedroom villa in St. Andrews Common.
For 2024 we have a total kitchen remodel with new cabinets, new quartz countertops new luxury vinyl flooring, etc. For 2023 is all new living room furniture. You'll need to visit to appreciate this exceptional, spacious and truly unique 1,400 sq. ft., 2-bedroom, one-level villa with its cathedral ceilings and stylish decor. You'll be in your own, private tropical paradise with spectacular views in every direction. A huge Magnolia tree, various Palms, Palmettos, Live Oaks with Spanish Moss, other tropical plants and a small lagoon frame beautiful views of the George Fazio Golf Course. There are no other villas, parking lots, walls or other obstructions to spoil your privacy and the tropical scenery. This is exactly why we were willing to pay a premium price for this premium St. Andrews Common property.
If you need a place to STAY, get a hotel room. If you want a place to really LIVE on the Island, this is your villa!
You'll be impressed with the open floor plan and atrium windows that fill the living spaces with light. The afternoon sun is filtered by the large beautiful trees, just off the deck, which provide a totally tropical feel.
You'll prepare a glass of wine or a cold drink at the eight-foot long quartz wet bar which separates the living space from the dining space two steps above. The large Panasonic, high definition flat screen television is perfect for viewing the extended high-def channel selection; watching a DVD on the Panasonic Blu-ray player or streaming your favorite programming. The furnishings throughout are quality. The queen sleeper sofa will accommodate a 6th person or a couple of children. Morning coffee or the sunset with a cold drink are absolutely perfect while sitting in one of the bar-height, bistro chairs on the spacious, private wrap-around deck. The deck has room for everyone in the party with six chairs (four bar height) and three tables. There is also a Weber Q BBQ grill on the deck for preparing a perfect steak or fresh fish.
You'll find a private retreat in the master suite with high ceilings, golf course views and separate French door access to the villa's large, wrap-around deck. Everything is updated from the tile, granite, vanities and fixtures in the bath to the furniture and large flat screen hi-def TV. Woven woods provide privacy for the windows and deck doors. Our designer advised that we should give special attention to the bedding as a good night's sleep is very important for us and our guests to fully enjoy our time on the Island. You'll sleep on the best, most supportive and most comfortable king mattress and foundation that we could find.
The roomy second bedroom also has beautiful, high quality furnishings and shades to provide privacy for the windows that face the front, entry-side of the villa. This bedroom has a queen bed for couples: an extended-length twin bed for another golfer or family member and a flat screen TV. The hall bath, just outside the second bedroom, has also been completely renovated with new tile, vanity and granite.
On days when you choose to eat in, food preparation will be a joy in the totally remodeled and well equipped kitchen with all new stainless steel appliances. The refrigerator has an ice maker and the range is a state of the art INDUCTION cooktop and CONVECTION oven. For 2023 there is a new luxury vinyl plank flooring, new cabinets and new quartz countertops. You may wash and dry your clothes and beach towels in the new full size washer and dryer just off the kitchen.
Behind the kitchen and near the villa entrance is a study with desk, chair and artwork. This is a perfect place to open your laptop, access the villa's private 500 mbps wireless network and work remotely or make that reservation at your favorite Hilton Head Island restaurant. There is a printer on the desk for your use. There is also a small covered deck off the kitchen / study with two chairs and a small table where you will find a private space to read a book or have a private conversation.
St. Andrews Common is part of the exclusive Palmetto Dunes / Shelter Cove Resort, one of the world's best resorts. The Resort offers exciting amenities and you will receive a Resort Pass which will give you driving and parking access to all areas of the Resort and all that this exceptional destination has to offer. Play golf on one of the three world-class golf courses or enjoy tennis or pickleball at the award winning Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center. Bike the miles of trails using the two cruiser bikes at the Villa for your use; shop at Shelter Cove's markets, shops and restaurants; take a cruise, charter a boat or fishing trip; kayak in the 11-mile lagoon; paddleboard or kayak at Shelter Cove; fish in the surf or lagoons; dine in the many restaurants; catch a show at the Arts Center; take a short walk or bike ride to the beach; or park at one of the private beach access points. All of this is available within the Palmetto Dunes / Shelter Cove Resort and you will have access.
In addition to the two cruiser bikes at the villa for your use, you may rent additional bikes, kayaks and other items from The Outfitters in Palmetto Dunes at a 10% discount as a Palmetto Dunes "Preferred Guest".
Don't feel like walking, biking or driving? Call the “Dunes Buggy“ and one of the buses will pick you up at your villa and take you anywhere in the resort for no charge. Call again and they'll take you somewhere else or return you to your villa. This transportation is usually available April 1 till September 30, from 8 AM till 9 PM for guests at our villa. Feel like staying very close to home? You can also relax in one of the comfortable lounge chairs at the large and beautiful St. Andrews Common swimming pool and pavilion available exclusively for St. Andrews Common owners and guests... about 100 steps from your villa door.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Stan and Jane Heasley
We are Stan and Jane Heasley. We are both now retired and thoroughly enjoying life. We absolutely love Hilton Head Island and we're sure that you will too. It's like no other place in the country.
Why they chose this property
Hilton Head Island is like no other place in the US mainland. We have rented houses and vacationed along the East Coast from Maine to Florida and on the West Coast as well. We've enjoyed the variety, but many places were wind blown sand, heavily commercialized or both. Hilton Head Island is very different. The Island is a forest of mature tropical trees and plants. Commercial signs and storefronts are pushed back into the trees to preserve the island feel. It looks very natural and tropical, but it's truly amazing the variety of activities, culture, restaurants, family activities and... did I mention the pristine beaches? If you're looking for either action or relaxation, Hilton Head Island has it all.
What makes this property unique
The uniqueness of our vacation rental villa begins with its size, the largest in St. Andrews Common. This is NOT the much smaller 2-bedroom unit with the small deck and 2nd bedroom in a loft up a spiral staircase. Our villa is a very large, 1400 sq. ft., 2-bedroom, 2-bath flat with cathedral ceilings and atrium windows. Our villa is also in the best location in St. Andrews. It is in the extreme southern corner of the complex furthest from roads and other housing. It has the most private setting in St. Andrews and has the very best, panoramic views in St. Andrews. From the large, private, elevated, wrap-around deck there are no walls, parking lots or other buildings to spoil the beautiful, tropical golf course views. We paid a premium price when we bought this villa as it is a premium property, in a premium location... the absolute best available in St. Andrews Common. Our villa was also totally remodeled and designer decorated.
The villa is located in the Prestigious Palmetto Dunes / Shelter Cove Oceanfront Resort with all of the resort activities, golf, tennis, kayaking, charter fishing, dolphin watching, private beach access points, etc. along three miles of the best beaches on the east coast. The Resort has everything but, if you decide to leave the Resort, you can bike about anywhere on the Island from this perfect mid-Island location. Two cruiser bikes are provided for your use and additional bikes may be rented at a 10% discount when staying at our villa. With the special code we will provide, you will receive DISCOUNTS ON GOLF, TENNIS AND RENTALS OF BIKES, KAYAKS, CANOES, ETC.
The villa has a mid-Island location, close to all the action for those looking for fun and activities, while also being very private and secluded for those looking for some tropical rest and relaxation. It is truly the best of all worlds.
