Background - Hilton Head Island
Hilton Head Island has had a long history of transformations. Europeans first
set foot here more than 500 years ago. It was once the site of vast cotton
plantations and is now the home of luxury hotels, first-class resort communities
and villas. Hilton Head Island offers outstanding restaurants and world class
golf.
Until 1956, the only way to get to the island was by boat. After the first
bridge was built, Charles Frazier started development in Sea Pines. He instilled
a vision for development that preserved the natural beauty of the island and
offered an easy going lifestyle. And, the rest of the island was developed with
a similar design viewpoint.
Premier Properties
While Hilton Head Island offers some of the finest resorts, there are no
billboards and street signs are limited in height and size. Building colors are
earth tones and you can only build to the height of the trees, offering a
balance between homes and the landscape.
Most of the oceanfront properties are private homes. And, only certain areas
allow short-term rentals. Oceanfront lots have been at a premium from the start.
And, all Hilton Head Island properties have proven an excellent investment,
while still offering great places to live.
Hilton Head Travel Options
Getting in and out of Hilton Head is easy.
The island has its own small airport with direct commercial flights to Charlotte, N.C.
and seasonally to Washington, DC.
The Savannah/Hilton Head airport is just 50 minutes away and offers non-stop flights to 17
destinations, most of them international hubs.
If you're traveling by car,
Hilton Head Island is only 22 miles off I-95 at Exit 8 in South Carolina. If you're traveling by boat, the Intracoastal Waterway brings boats traveling north and south.
