Serenity by the Sea

Jay and Linda are great owners. They quickly responded to the few questions we had. They made the whole rental process from arrival to departure very easy because they're so well organized. The rental was very well stocked with paper and soap products, towels, spices, lots of unexpected items. Having stayed in HH multiple times, this rental is by far our favorite. It was beautiful. We look forward to renting from Jay and Linda again.

Perfect relaxing location and vacation

We had a wonderful and relaxing beach vacation in Hilton Head to celebrate our child’s college graduation. The home was spotless, well-stocked, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The small private pool in the backyard was absolutely perfect for unwinding after a day at the beach. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to make special memories with our family. Highly recommend!

Thanksgiving Holiday

Serenity by the Sea was a great place for our group of 5 adults to spend a Thanksgiving holiday. The hosts were very responsive, and the layout worked well for us with a large living area and well stocked kitchen. We liked the location of Serenity by the Sea, which is and easy bike ride to the beach, Harbortown, and the Sea Pines Forest Preserve.

Very nice, large house in a beautiful resort. The house was very clean, comfortable and spacious and fit our needs very well. It was great to have a fenced back yard so the dogs could join us and great to have pet friendly hosts as well. The setting is lovely and peaceful and the resort has a lot to offer, including a gorgeous, private beach.The large, open kitchen is generously stocked. I loved that there are ceiling fans and TVs in every room, and it was convenient to be able to use our own Roku account.

Home away from Home

Perfect vacation house for large family ; all 3 bedrooms are a good size ; the bedding is very attractive, the mattress in pink bedroom is very soft and uncomfortable ; Master bathroom has a great large shower ; plenty of excellent towels are provided ; the large kitchen has everything for preparing meals for a big family; plenty of glasses, dishes and silver ware ; a couple of things are needed in the house, a desk with a chair for a laptop computer and more lamps in the living room which is quite dark ; the tile flooring is very cold, so advise guests to bring slippers or booties; it is a wonderful vacation house wih a nice patio and pool to enjoy during warmer weather ; ( potted Plants on patio need some TLC ) Linda and Jay are attentive owners .

Fantastic Sea Pines Vrbo

My husband and I recently stayed at this property to attend the RBC Heritage. I can't say enough good things about it. Beautiful well kept clean home. Kitchen is fully stocked with plates, cups, coffee makers, pots and pans. They have complimentary K cups, creamer, and seasonings for cooking. The outside grill (propane) was perfectly clean and propane tanks both full. The back patio and pool are absolutely lovely. It was so relaxing just sitting in the space at any point during the day. The pool was a nice touch but too cold to truly enjoy so recommend heating it. Rent bikes and you can literally get anywhere you want in 5-10 minutes. The neighborhood is so charming and welcoming. 10/10!

The Perfect Getaway!

We’ve been vacationing in HHI for many year but haven’t been back since COVID. We were so excited to take a week off and come back to our favorite island, and Serenity by the Sea was the perfect place to stay! It was the perfect size of a home for us 3 young couples. We loved how much ample seating there was in the living for us to all sit and enjoy time together. The pool was amazing and we spent every day out there. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and the entire house was extremely well stocked and clean. The beach was only a quick bike ride away (definitely recommend renting bikes!) and we were so close to all the cool spots in Sea Pines and the rest of the island. Plus, the house was pet friendly and we loved being able to spend the week with our pups too! Linda and Jay were organized and communication was very clear. Their virtual property guide and pre arrival emails were very helpful! We’ll definitely be renting through Beachside again!!

We have stayed at several properties in Sea Pines over the years and this one was by far the top of our list! The home was clean and well-appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed and the pool was simply lovely. The hosts are very communicative and information was timely - I really enjoyed booking our bikes through them as well.

Another Wonderful Week on HHI

Beachside HHI properties are very well maintained and equipped so that you are able to fully enjoy a worry free week on HHI. We continue to enjoy Sea Pines rentals from them. Their communication leading up to arrival and departure is exceptional. Give them a shot at your next HHI vacation planning, you will not be disappointed.

Serenity

Sea Pines carved a place in my soul. Riding a bike through its beautiful trails, surrounded and embraced by the trees, brings such a special sense of peace. The house name, Serenity, could not have been better chosen. The master bedroom is very comfortable, the kitchen is spacious, and the location is excellent—within walking distance of the beach, with everything else just a short drive away or conveniently available for delivery. There is something about Sea Pines that goes beyond a beautiful place to stay. The nature, the quiet, the trails, and the ocean come together in a way that makes your stay carve a little place in your soul.

Perfect stay

The house was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The pool was a blessing and the location was great. My only criticism is the distance to the beach (15 min) walk. Top tip: you can park at the beach club after 3pm and you can eat on their patio without a reservation after 7.30.

Outstanding

We've been staying in Sea Pines for almost 30 years and this is by far one of the most well stocked homes we've ever stayed in. A close friend lives on Cotton Ln and I've seen this gem for years and never realized what I was missing. The large master bedroom mattress was very comfortable with an updated master bathroom. The layout of the house was perfect for our family. So many unexpected amenities like full size shower supplies, dishwashing and laundry detergent and even dog treats and bowls provided in this pet friendly home. The private pool and fenced back yard were added bonuses. We will definitely be back!
