About this villa rental
Situated in South Forest Beach, this charming villa for $371 per night is a great option for your next vacation. We invite you to stay awhile in our villa for six, at the Ocean Gate Villas complex of South Forest Beach. “Beauty and the Beach” (Unit 15) is a true, private, end unit, with a side yard, new larger deck and on the edge of the bicycle path. We are a five-minute walk to the most beautiful beach by way of a wooded, beach path. This expansive and uncrowded beach area is nestled on the edge of Sea Pines with private homes, not hotels. From our villa, by foot or by pedal, we are near beach-side grilles and sixty restaurants within a three-mile radius. Coligny Plaza, the downtown area, is less than two miles away. Additionally, our villa is just steps to the pickleball and tennis court, a basketball hoop and the swimming pool. It is such a convenience enjoying these amenities in YOUR own backyard. Plus, this small, friendly establishment is uncrowded, rarely busy, and is not a noisy one. As our name implies, this is a beautiful place and beach. Our villa is bright, light and uncluttered. You’ll appreciate the breathtaking Live Oak trees dripping in Spanish Moss as well as the (official state tree) Palmetto Palms. The livingroom furniture is comfortable with a Smart HD TV perched upon the marble-top console. You’ll find DVD’s for both TV's on the main level and upstairs. Internet and cable TV are provided free of charge. The bar chairs and the high-top table are fun for gaming, socializing, and dining. Inside the teal cabinet, you’ll discover glass (and plasticware) for beer, wine and margaritas. A “Ninja” blender and a “Bullet” mixer for making smoothies or cocktails, and glass pitchers or a large thermos are provided to contain your creations. The kitchen is fully stocked with glassware, dishware, plastic containers, baking accessories, quality pots and pans and we’ve included a spice carousel. Enjoy brewed coffee (Keurig or Mr.Coffee pot style) or tea at the kitchen table with a view of greenery. Additionally, on the main level, there’s a half bathroom with a vanity cabinet and a new, full size, washer and dryer in the laundry room. There you’ll find a basket of beach towels for your use. Feel free to make use of the beach chairs, beach umbrella and the boogie board for the young (or young at heart). Upstairs, enter the Loft with a single, pull-out, sofa bed and an extra-large, uncovered, picture window. Beautiful sun rays provide light to both the upstairs and the main level. This area has two, swivel chairs, a contemporary, multi-height desk and a DVD player. In the Master bedroom relax on the comfy Queen-sized bed and enjoy the Smart HD TV. This bedroom has plenty of storage space and has its’ own 3-piece bathroom (tub and shower, sink, commode) with vanity. Right next door is the Guest Bedroom accommodating four: a bunk bed with a single (twin) on top and a double (full sized) bed on bottom. Plus, there is a stand alone single (twin) bed in the room and plenty of storage. This room also has its’ own 3-piece bathroom and vanity. At dusk, perhaps while you are grilling shrimp on the “barbe”, you may encounter a deer or two, if you’re very still. While relaxing on the new deck, you are likely to hear the Atlantic waves when the breeze is in your direction. A haven to Chill, or be as Adventurous as you like. HHI, is the ticket offering a vast array of activities. Come, stay awhile at “Beauty and the Beach”. Two private designated, parking spaces directly in front of the unit.

My family and I had a great stay at Kim and Kevin's place. It is a nice short walk to the beach and close to shopping and some outdoor parks including Audubon Newhall Preserve and Pinckney Island. Kim and Kevin take great care in the house, it is well decorated and very comfortable for sleeping, eating and spending time with family and friends.

Perfect spot for our father/son golf trip. Great access to Sea Pines - literally right outside the get. Condo was well suited for what we needed and communication with the host was easy. Would stay again if in the area.

Very nice comfortable end unit Villa that has all the little extras that make for a fun, relaxing family vacation at the beach. Enjoyed the close proximity to bike trails, Pickleball, pool, Sea Pines entrance, grocery stores, and only 5min. walk to beach. The Villa was perfectly furnished with all the comforts of home and stocked with the needed initial necessities. Beautiful new deck and gas grill out back to enjoy some grilling and the peaceful wooded setting (we saw a Momma deer and 2 fawns pass thru one evening). Thanks Kim and Kevin for your quick responsiveness to questions and for providing excellent hospitality. Would love to come visit again some day.

The condo is clean and comfortable. It has plenty of space. We had two couples staying and really liked having a private bath for each family. The kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed to make meals. The back porch was another favorite spot for relaxing. We enjoyed the pool which was right outside the unit. The beautiful beach is about a five minute walk on a lovely tree lined trail. There are many restaurants, bars and grocery stores nearby. You would either need a car or a bike at this location as most things are not within walking distance. We did have an issue with the air conditioning not working for one day. The owner was responsive and did get it repaired. The grounds of the property are well kept. This is a relaxing place to stay that feels like a home.

This condo is beautifully decorated and exactly as pictured. The location of the condo is a short drive to every place you’d want to go. It’s a great location for a relaxing getaway. The loft area is super cute and a nice area to hang out in. The owners are very responsive to all questions and were super helpful when we first got there. Would definitely come back to this location! We were looking for a relaxing week away and definitely enjoyed our time in unit 15 (Beauty and the Beach).

We enjoyed our stay at the Beauty and the Beach villa. The villa was clean and decorated beautifully. It was the perfect size and layout for what our family of 6 needed. We were easily able to cook meals, do laundry, play games on the larger table and relax! The beach was an easy and short walk and it was very uncrowned which was nice also. We are already looking forward to staying again next summer!

Loved their unit! It was only one of 15 in the entire complex, and had Pickleball/tennis and basketball court right outside the back door as well as the pool. Their back deck was a great happy hour hang out.
The beach walk was an interesting trail right outside the back to a beautiful, not very populated beach. The house was really comfortable and slept all of us easily.

Wonderful property. Great size for our family of 6 (three young children). Hosts were incredibly kind and communicated very well. We enjoyed tennis and pool right outside the door. It was also very lovely being right outside sea pines, as the beach wasnt crowded at all. We ended up biking the kids to the beach, as the walk would tire them out some (ages 2,3,5). But the walk path itself through the woods is beautiful!

Our family has been vacationing in HHI for almost 20 years, our long term rental fell through so we had to find a new place to stay for our annual beach week. This condo was great! We loved the location! The area was not busy and it was a short walk to an almost private stretch of beach. The unit itself was clean, nicely updated/decorated, and fully stocked. Pool & tennis/pickleball/basketball court all steps from the back deck. Easy access to bike trails and close to Coligny Plaza for shopping/restaurants. Owners were also responsive and easy to work with. We hope to come back!

We had a wonderful week staying at this townhome. It was clean, plenty of room for a family of 5 and a great location. The walk to the beach was quick and fun. We enjoyed staying near Sea Pines and purchased a weekly pass so we could go to the Salty Dog and Lighthouse without worrying about paying daily to enter. We would definitely stay again. The hosts were helpful, quick to respond and easy to deal with!

We were attracted and enjoyed the location of this property. It's minutes walking from the beach, right on the door step to Sea Pines resort, and on a bike path. The tennis court and pool were a nice bonus.

We loved this property. It was spotless, bright, and airy. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. It's a convenient quiet location, with an easy walk to the beach. I worked remotely from the desk in the loft area--good WiFi and a comfortable, adjustable desk. We plan to come back next year!

Lovely, comfortable, clean, well equipped and tastefully decorated vacation home that is a short 5 minute walk to the beach. Walking and cycling on the beach was wonderful.
We also immensely enjoyed the extensive cycling paths all over the island and appreciated that most paths were under a canopy of trees.
We had a lovely vacation and Kim and Kevin were excellent hosts who communicated promptly to our questions.

This place is right at the intersection of affordability and convenient location to the beach. My family of 5 with 3 young children always felt safe especially on our short walk to the beach. The beach itself here is just far away enough from Coligny plaza and felt like our private beach! Would definitely stay again. Great for families with young children or anyone looking for a low key scene.

Location! Location! Location!
This was our first time visiting HHI. As a group of four adults, we were very pleased with our overall stay. Prior to our visit, Kim and Kevin provided us with many helpful tips and suggestions to enhance our experience on the island. They were extremely prompt with answering all of our questions. Our check-in and check-out were easy.
The condo was well appointed for our needs. It was bright, clean, and tastefully decorated with a beach theme. The Sea Pines Resort is only a short stroll away… a must see! One of our favourite parts of the day was the short 5 minute walk on a shaded path to the beautiful uncrowded ocean beach. The convenience of the condo’s proximity to the beach was a difference maker. We also recommend riding your bikes on the beach to Coligny where you can dine, shop and listen to live music.
Thank you Kim and Kevin for sharing your beautiful condo with us. We highly recommend your rental!

We enjoyed our visit to Beauty & the Beach and HHI. Everything was exactly as described and we absolutely loved the sweet little wooded path that took us right to the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed and the property is very well maintained, private and beautifully decorated. I really loved the art! We were very comfortable and had everything we needed during our stay. Unfortunately, we had to leave early due to the hurricane that was fast approaching HHI, and are very grateful for all the help that Kim and Kevin provided to make sure we were safe. We are looking forward to returning soon and finishing our vacation. I highly recommend Kim and Kevin’s amazing Beauty and the Beach property. Thank you again for everything!

My family enjoyed a wonderful visit to HHI. The property is updated and very well maintained. We especially were pleased that the owners provided towels and linens. The nearby bike paths and trail to the beach were perfect for us. We absolutely will be back again!
