Charming oceanfront home with brand new renovations and private pool & spa

Welcome to The Sandbox! Newly renovated and outlined with elegance in every detail, this 3-story oceanfront home is truly perfect for your next Hilton Head Island family getaway.

This home has an extremely open floor plan that allows an easy flow between the living room, kitchen, and dining area. The living room is well-appointed and spacious, and natural light fills every corner of the room through the large windows. There is plenty of comfortable seating for everyone to enjoy and a large flat-screen TV for your entertainment. In the kitchen, there is plenty of walkway and counterspace to allow multiple people to cook simultaneously without feeling crowded. Top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances and fully stocked cabinetry, and 2 refrigerators ensure that meals at home are a breeze! There is seating for 10 at the formal dining table and an additional eight bar stools in the kitchen.

The first bedroom sits on the first floor and features a king-sized bed. There is a full bathroom, complete with a single vanity and walk-in shower, outside of this room. On the mezzanine level sits the second bedroom, which features a king-sized bed and a private bathroom, that has a double vanity along with a walk-in shower and a soaking tub. On the second floor, the 3rd bedroom features an iron queen-sized bed and boasts stunning ocean views as well as a private balcony. The private ensuite bathroom has a shower/tub combination. The 4th bedroom acts as the primary suite and features a king-sized bed, oceanside seating, and stunning ocean views from the balcony. The primary bathroom has a double vanity, a makeup area, a walk-in shower, and a spa tub. The 5th bedroom has a king-sized bed and a private bathroom consisting of a double vanity, walk-in shower, and spa tub. The 6th bedroom has 2 queen-sized beds and a private bathroom complete with a shower or tub.

On the 3rd floor, you will find the remaining rooms, as well as more living space and a full kitchen! The 7th bedroom is large and features two queen-sized beds, a flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom. The bathroom has a double vanity along with a walk-in shower and spa tub. The 8th bedroom is open and has two twin-sized beds and two trundle beds, and it also doubles as another living room! Enjoy plenty of plush seating around the TV and fireplace, and enjoy your own private balcony while you soak up the ocean views. Along with a full second kitchen, there is also a washer and dryer on the third floor.

Outside, your oceanside oasis awaits! Unwind in the private pool and spa and listen to the waves crash in the near distance as you let rest and relaxation find you. There is plenty of outdoor seating, as well as pool loungers and two outdoor tables. Just a short walk over the dunes on the private boardwalk will take you to the sandy beaches. The Sandbox truly has it all!

Great spot near Coligny
Overall a great long weekend at this home at the beach. The view and location were first rate, all the travelers really enjoyed it. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. We cooked a few meals while the 9 of us were here, and the kitchen is big and roomy and lots of folks can work at the same time. Overall a great time. A few small things - the appliances are showing some age - the icemaker in the kitchen fridge doesn't work and the heating elements on the stove are slow. There are a few small signs of wear on carpets and furniture - and a little cleaning could go a long way - but those are small nitpicky things. Was a really fun time at a great location.

Amazing House
My family and I have been visiting HHI for over 40 years and this house has by far been the best house we’ve stayed in. The property manager was attentive and helpful. The house was clean and exactly as described. We will be booking again.

We have been vacationing on HHI for 20+ years. We now have 4 generations. This house provided everything we needed, beach access, roomy great room, and plenty of room for everyone. We have already booked for next year. I could not have asked for more in a beach house. Thanks so much for sharing your property.

Exceeded Expectations
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lots of rental properties look better in pictures than they do in real life, but this was the exception. We were even more impressed by the size of the house, the quality of the amenities, the pool and the beach access. The beach was fantastic. A very residential area so low crowds and it was large and flat, very easy to run and bike on. Parking was easy with room for 6 cars. The concierge service was one of the best amenities though. They helped me set up a private chef dinner that was fantastic. They helped guide us to local restaurants and golf courses. They helped us find a masseuse for an in home visit, and they helped us find a fun sunset sailing cruise. I didn't like that I was going to get charged for a full week of heating the pool and spa even though we only were there for 3 nights. The owner did agree to give me a slight discount, but it wasn't anywhere close to prorated. The concierge service did help me after hours though when I couldn't figure out the spa heat, so they really came through for us. I would highly recommend renting through Island Time and this property was excellent. The location was great, but you will want a car or bike. We walked to Coligny Beach area a couple times, but it was a solid 30-35 minutes.

Adult Senior Spring Break 🏌️‍♂️🎾🍸🍷🍤🏖️
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented 9 Guscio for two weeks and had two groups of friends visit. Hilton Head has become our favorite destination. The house was big enough as we had 5 couples one week and 7 couples the next week. Very well appointed and being on the beach and centrally located on the island made it perfect for our friends. The owner happened to be staying next door and was very friendly and helpful. The Island Time staff was very accommodating and responsive. Our only issues were one of the ovens slow to heat up but did work and the elevator had a few glitches. Some of the elevator glitches were operator errors but a few were mechanical. We will be back.

Great house and value
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, it was a great value. To have an oceanfront property with the amenities that this included at that price was, I think, a rare find. If I was critical of the house I'd say it could use a few things: felt a bit dated (minor wear and tear/dirty carpets/etc.); main floor needs another fridge; the balcony space of the main floor is small for such a large house; drainage around the pool needs fixed (all the sand from the where you rinse your sandy feet flows right onto the porch around the pool. All in all, I would stay here again and our family really liked the house.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a great house, everyone had quiet private space, patio is great, great views, great kitchen, great location. It’s Kept up pretty nice, just some worn/ stained carpeting a few places. And odd pool/spa heating specific instructions which were only on one paper that got an iPad laid on top of, and which caused us a couple cool pool days after we paid to heat both pool and spa. No sign or instructions out by the pool to be sure everyone who used spa and pool could see, since there’s 14 adults using it. Overall great time with an entire family there.

Ocean side, 8 bedrooms
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall we were satisfied at the house and the family enjoyed being together.Pros: Home with 8 bedrooms, very limited supply on the island ocean side.. Facility was clean. Kitchen and dining areas suitable and accommodate large gatherings. Beach location allows lengthy walks and bike rides. Close to Coligny Circle for shopping and restaurants. Bike paths available to travel across island. Good size pool with deck chairs. Porches with views of ocean. Elevator available to assist with luggage to second and third floors. Enjoyed the house. Maintenance issues were resolved expediently. Staff was responsive, supportive and helpful. Cons: Limited parking space. House is much too close to adjacent properties presenting noisy ambiance from neighbors, may be best in off season with less crowds if you don't want to be part of the neighbors constant and late partying. Door missing for 3rd floor "bedroom" not private. Pots and pans have scrapped teflon coating, not recommended for safe cooking. Purchased our own.

Very bad experience at a once beautiful property
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the 3rd year we had stayed at this rental. Over that period it had become less desireable.1. Upon arrival and over the period of our stay we noted several areas that were clearly not cleaned. Bathrooms, blinds, floors. debris and grime.Worst of all, blood spatter in one bedroom, on walls, bedding. In ine bathroom, one large spot of stool or blood on the door.Under the sheeets hair and dust on the bedding.2. Insufficient basics, one dishtowel-we had to use bath towels for the kitchen. One dishwasher was not working. Only 2 of the burners on the outdoor grill was functioning3. Although we needed to clean, the vacuum cleanr did not work, we had one broom.We took photos of all of the defined areas.The company did come and clean the blood, we are waiting a response regarding the other issues.Likely not related to the owner, we ended up with 2 flat tires due to nails in the alley construction site adjacent propertyOverall it was a very bad experience at a once beauriful proerty.

Great location and house!
Great house right on the beach in HH. Stayed with my large family. Pros: Location was perfect. 5 min drive to anything you need- supermarket, restaurants, shops, park, etc. The sizes of the rooms were great. It was also nice to have two living rooms on separate floors. Cons: A lot of red ants by the pool and grill, so it was a little hard to enjoy laying out without getting bit. Some dishes were a little dirty. We stayed during a hurricane that passed for one day- the pool got very sandy and dirty and we requested for it to be vacuumed on the bottom but no one ever came. Rental company said they could not guarantee they come or provide an ETA which is a little weird as they should have a relationship with pool company to come and clean per their request. Overall we had a great experience and would stay here again!

Amazing home!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Five couples had room to spare in this lovely, well equipped home with views of the beach and sounds of the surf! We had all the equipment needed for Low Country Boil and beach breakfasts! The home is a short bike ride from Coligny and many restaurants. Beds and furnishings were all comfortable, and the bathrooms were sizable and sparkling clean. One coffee maker was not working and was quickly replaced by manager. Do be careful - the house is at the end of a narrow street blocked by a wall. Do a little planning for who needs to get a car out.
