A Family Resort Designed to Make Lasting Memories

Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort is located at the heart of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina named the #1 Beach Town in the US by Parents Magazine. Palmetto Dunes’ three miles of sun-kissed Atlantic Ocean beachfront provide the perfect venue for three world-class golf courses, vacation rentals, a full-service marina, and an 11-mile lagoon system. The resort enjoys a well-earned reputation for creating unforgettable vacation experiences for the entire family. It’s no coincidence, as vacationers return year after year, many decide to make Palmetto Dunes their permanent residence.

Erin and Lisa were a pleasure to work with as we planned our micro beach wedding from Pittsburgh. Easy communication, very kind, and did their best to keep everyone dry during a drizzly ceremony. Would recommend!

Wonderful experience. 907 Inverness was beautifully decorated. It was a mile walk to beach. It is a great place to walk bike play pickleball. Just relax. Pool was great. It is easy to drive to beach and drop off items and people. The dunes house is great.
