An Award Winning Vacation, Golf, Tennis and Beach Resort

If you are planning a vacation for your family this summer and still are not sure where to go, I recommend going to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. This luxury getaway is just forty five minutes away from Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport. The first thing I would do is look to book a beautiful vacation home, condo, or villa online.

The Villamare is definitely the most requested vacation spot in the resort. This oceanfront community has magnificent views of beaches and a large pool that is just seconds from the ocean. The Villamare offers one and two bedroom condos either both oceanfront or ocean-oriented. Windsor Court and Windsor Place are also in high demand. They too are located on the ocean and range from one to two bedrooms.

If you are looking for outdoor activities while you visit Hilton Head Island, there are many things for people with all types of interests. Palmetto Dunes has more than 5 miles of bicycle paths for guests to walk, run, or ride with safety. Palmetto Dunes is also home to three world class golf courses. Each golf course has water, sand, and marsh to battle with and should be enjoyed by all who play. The Palmetto Dunes Racquet Club is located right before the security gates on the left-hand side. There are many tennis courts available throughout the day - just call for a reservation. Palmetto Dunes has many things to offer all guests who visit. There are lagoons that can be traveled by canoe, kayak, or electric motored boat. For all of you fisherman out there, great fishing and shrimping can also be done.

Palmetto Dunes has recently won several awards:

?#1 Family Resort in North America by Travel & Leisure Magazine

?#3 Tennis Center in the World, by Tennis Resorts Online

?"Golf Course of the Year", the Robert Trent Jones Course, by South Carolina Golf Course Owners Association

?#1 golf course on Hilton Head Island, The Arthur Hills course, by Fodor's Golf

The best feature of Palmetto Dunes has to be the beach. Unlike some beaches that are so soft to walk on that you trip and fall while carrying your chairs, this hard-packed beach allows you to walk, run, or even ride a bicycle easily. Everything is clean and beautiful and much better than Myrtle Beach or Charleston.

Whatever getaway you dream of, as a guest of Hilton Head Island Rental you will enjoy exclusive and preferred tennis, golf and amenity privileges throughout Palmetto Dunes Resort.
