A breakfast table for three and a dining table for four provides plenty of room for dining or gathering.The living room, with a sofa and plush chair, allow for comfort while reading a book or watching television.

This villa sports a full size bathroom in the master, a king bed, and television, a comfortable guest room with two twin beds, a television, and a second bath, plus fresh towels and linens to make this the perfect home away from home. The villa is complete with a washer and dryer.

This villa is close to one of the three pools on the property and a only a few steps to the beach. Quiet gated community, 24hr security, tennis courts, and wildlife galore.

***We are located on the first-floor requiring traversing a half flights of stairs... which are a breeze... but wanted to make sure any wheelchair or elderly concerns are noted. There are no elevators at The Spa.***

The Spa at Port Royal Sound is located as the Atlantic Ocean turns up into the Port Royal Sound on the beautiful beaches of Hilton Head Island. Relax as the ocean waters roll onto the sands surrounding the villa or spend the day beachcombing for seashells and other treasures. If you prefer larger waves and umbrella lined beaches, there are public beach access points just minutes from the Spa. This gated community includes 2 outdoor pools, an indoor pool and hot tub, fitness center, tennis courts, picnic/BBQ area, basketball court, and beach with a pier. Please note: outdoor pools close for the season on Oct 30. Sun deck of mid pool will remain open, weather permitting! Facilities are subject to close without notice based on COVID restrictions or maintenance issues.

The Spa On Port Royal Sound is a hidden treasure! Located in a secluded area of Hilton Head Island, SC. The Spa is nestled between two historic parks - Fish Haul Park and Mitchellville Park. The beach is in a nature preserve and bird sanctuary, offering a wide variety of wildlife to watch and enjoy. The beautifully landscaped gardens and lagoons create the feel of a tropical paradise right outside your villa. The Spa connects directly to Hilton Head’s bike trails. The miles of paths cover virtually the entire Island. Within a short distance from The Spa, there are several Atlantic beachfront public parks with showers, restrooms, and picnic areas. The Island boasts over 20 public golf courses, too many great restaurants to count, movie theaters, and other exciting vacation activities. In addition, there is always an amazing Outlet shopping experience awaiting you, as well as quite a few boutiques, thrift, and local shops close by to find your HHI treasures before you head back home!

The Neighborhood:
The Spa On Port Royal Sound is a hidden treasure! Located in a secluded area of Hilton Head Island, SC. The Spa is nestled between two historic parks - Fish Haul Park and Mitchellville Park. A premier southeast barrier island off of the coasts of South Carolina and Georgia. Voted the "Best Island in the US" in 2016, 2017, 2018 & 2019 by Conde Naste Traveler. Enjoy easy days relaxing in the sun, sand and surf on some of the best beaches in the country. Get into the swing of things with 24 world class golf courses and 350 tennis courts, and experience our rich and vibrant history. Outdoor adventure is yours—ride horseback through a forest preserve, bike on the beach and moss-draped trails, kayak in our beautiful waters, go dolphin watching or even zip-line through our beautiful Low Country! Experience and explore all that Hilton Head Island has to offer.

Getting Around:
Close to the Hilton Head Airport and easy drivability to all the island has to offer. Miles of bike trails can be found across the island from The Spa!

Other Things to Note:
Bugs
We get asked about Palmetto Bugs all the time. Yes, these are roaches and are found pretty much everywhere outside in South Carolina but we like to call them Palmetto Bugs as it makes them sound nicer! They can be pretty big, can fly and will scurry around the floor but they are largely harmless. They do occasionally come inside, especially at night and during or after any storms. Rest assured all of our homes are professionally treated monthly for pests. Any bugs that manage to get inside will die quickly.

According to Eric Benson, Ph.D. professor and extension entomologist at Clemson University “It has nothing to do with cleanliness or the economic conditions of the area,” said Benson. “They could be around the nicest home or the nicest hotel or resort.”

If you leave the doors or windows open, especially at night, you will likely see a few. This is perfectly normal. If you see 20 or 30 all in one place then please let us know. This might mean we have a nest somewhere in the home and we'll need to get pest control out to take care of it. This is extremely rare!

Please don't worry about bugs, enjoy your vacation. You'll likely not see any while you are here, we just include this note so you understand it's not unusual to see some and it doesn't mean the home isn't well looked after!

Awesome!
This was our first time to HHI. We couldn’t have asked for better accommodations. Our condo was clean & spacious and close to everything! The beach is literally steps away with 2 pools as well. We spent a couple days at Coligny Beach (highly recommend). There is no shortage of things to do and places to eat. We will absolutely stay here again and recommend others do as well!

Rustic and kitschy condo
The place was ok, unfortunately you could easily hear the upstairs residents walking around, talking, etc. The decorations and furniture were unmatching and there was an old, antique store smell in the condo. We purchased a scented candle which was helpful. The handsoap dispensers had watered down soap with only a tiny amount that would last a few days so bring your own soap. On the plus side, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen has nice appliances. I did appreciate the little gift bag with brochures, sunglasses, popcorn and coffee. The small samples of lotion, shampoo, conditioner and bath soap were a nice touch.

HH GET AWAY
I loved the location of my condo. Was close to the beach. However there was sand on the floors and the master bath shower was not working properly. Could not make the hand held stay in the shower position. A keurig coffee maker would be a great addition as well. Mostly it was a great stay and I’ll definitely rent again.

Another Wonderful Stay
Lairds Lair is the perfect place for us to enjoy what HH has to offer. The beach at Port Royal Sound is just beautiful, and it was only steps away. The Lair is perfect, comfortable, clean and functional and the Sound can be seen from the balcony. Can't wait to go back next year!

Aug getaway
The location was nice. Property seemed a bit run down ~ hot tub not working, exercise room not what was pictured. The unit itself was a nice proximity to the inlet access; however, the unit pictured and advertised was apparently when it was a newer unit. Floors are warped and we had lots of noise (after 6 pm and before 6 am) from the upstairs unit (sounded like heavy footsteps and moving furniture)

Nice stay
The beach next to the property is not ideal for swimming due to lots of reeds, rocks, and jellyfish. We ended up driving to the public beach day after the first day. Just be mindful in case you book with the intent to swim at the beach everyday. It you just want to stroll around at sunset, it is a great location. The other downside of the property is a lack of common amenities/essentials in the kitchen. For example, there was no Tupperware, common spices, coffee grounds, new sponge, etc. The pots and pans were were scratched up and took a long time to heat up. So, if you plan to use more than the microwave in the kitchen, you will need to bring everything with you.

Family vacation
Enjoyed the proximity to the beach but the villa is in need of a thorough deep cleaning, especially the bathrooms and kitchen. The skillet we used had to be scrubbed before we could use it as it had food stuck on it. The villa was smaller than it appeared in the pictures and the furniture in the living room was not comfortable and needs replaced. We also heard every footstep that the people took in the villa above us.

Beautiful Location and Great Family Atmosphere
The condo was exactly as described, with more than enough thoughtful amenities (cookware, toiletries, cleaning supplies, beach items, bug spray, and games). Our family could really relax in the serene atmosphere. The condo is super-close to the outdoor pool and just a short walk to the indoor pool and fitness room. The access to the beach was close and convenient, and the view was priceless. During the last two days of the stay, there was a bit of noise from a tenant above us (pitter-patter of little feet), but all other days were quiet and peaceful.

The Spa 1114
The Spa 1114/Laird's Lair was in a great location...definitely beach view and close to all the areas we wanted to go. The main living space and master bedroom/bath were quite clean, outfitted with whatever we needed including enough paper products to get us going. The second bedroom was a little tight as far as roominess is concerned and the second bathroom was quite dusty...there was even dust on the walls and light fixtures as if it hadn't been used in quite awhile! Other than that we truly enjoyed our stay there.
