4BR/4BA Private Island Retreat/Country Club - 25 mins from HHI - Golf Included
RENOVATED JANUARY 2026!
Welcome to our four-bedroom, four-bath, semi-detached waterfront villa, nestled within the private, gated sanctuary of Callawassie Island, an expansive 900-acre nature reserve designed for those who enjoy perfect weather, championship golf, five-star dining, and white-glove concierge services.
Each bedroom in the 1,700 sq ft villa has an en-suite bathroom.
Located minutes away from pristine beaches, exceptional shopping destinations, and historic landmarks, the villa provides a comfortable base for exploration.

Guests enjoy full access to the Callawassie Island Club, including our three exceptional 9-hole golf courses, meticulously designed by renowned architect Tom Fazio. Two of these courses have recently undergone a $4 million renovation.

Additional guests can play for a nominal fee of $85 per round (subject to change). Separate golf cart and golf club rentals are available through the pro shop.

We had a great time ringing in the new year. The golf was great, the home comfortable and the location was perfect for time spent in Savannah, Beaufort, Hilton Head, and Bluffton. All was enjoyed more with being able to bring our 2 pups along.
House was wonderful, comfortable and had everything you need. Beds were very comfortable. Location was good and convenient to clubhouse. We always enjoy Callawassie it’s a hidden gem. Hosts were very easy to work with and neighbors are very welcoming.
An amazing family vacation in an amazing location!!
The villa was great and provided our family plenty of room and access to amazing amenities on Callawassie Island! The villa had everything you would need, full kitchen amenities, towels and linens made vacation prepping easy. Two pools, pickle ball, tennis, kayaking, and an amazing golf course! We were close to numerous parts of the low country, Parris Island, Beaufort and Hilton Head. Simply put…you can’t go wrong staying here for vacation!!
Granddaughter was getting married on Callawassie the house was perfect for part of my family! Loved sitting out on the screened porch and relaxing before and after all the functions! It was spotless, so roomy, and well stocked with cleaning supplies! Douglas was so helpful and easy to communicate with, he made you feel like you’ve known them all your life!
Since our oldest of 4 started college, we began doing desination Thanksgivings where we would all meet in a new city/state to be together. We love the Charleston area and decided to venture just outside. Okatie did not disappoiont with it's proximity to Bluffton and Hilton Head. Home was perfect for us to celebrate the holiday. We enjoyed the golf and pickleball amenities as well as the onsite restaurant when we did not feel like cooking the day after Thanksgiving. The kitchen was a bit tight for such a large meal prep but nonetheless we had a great time.
Great location and rooms were wonderful all with adjoining restrooms. We loved sitting on the back screened in porch during brief rainfalls and watching for beautiful birds and wildlife.
Very nice and convenient home. Good communication from owner in advance
Very clean, had everything we needed. Would highly recommend

I rented this home for my family and my mother’s 85th birthday and large family reunion on the island. I had rented many homes on this island before and this was probably my favorite because it was clean and well appointed and well stocked with items in the kitchen and the bathrooms

Our stay was extremely relaxing. Accommodations were perfect, check in was smooth, scheduling tee times with club house was easy and we purchased items in the pro shop for owner price! Brad is a wonderful host, had everything ready for us on arrival. Would not hesitate to book another week with Brad!

Relaxing atmosphere with wonderful nature views
We stayed during my sons graduation from boot camp. Only a short drive to Parris Island. We enjoyed the screened porch watching the birds and alligators. Very nice place. We definitely recommend. Good place for golfers.

The villa is beautiful and very well appointed. Callawassie is a lovely, peaceful and serene neighborhood. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch watching the birds and gators. Brad is great and always available to help. I highly recommend this lovely villa. You won't want to leave.!

The golf courses, grounds, fitness facilities and club facilities were all excellent. The island is beautiful and we found the staff to be very welcoming. The house, however, was not as expected for a private, country club neighborhood. We contacted the hosts 24 hours in to our stay with concerns, including numerous stained carpets and furniture, missing outlet covers, inoperable water and ice in the refrigerator, broken dishwasher rack and door, inoperable windows throughout the unit (host indicated upon check-in that none could be opened) and offtrack and inoperable doors in the laundry area. Several days passed before the hosts responded, and no resolution occurred to any of these issues (despite multiple messages). We would love to spend more time on this island, but would not return to this house in its current condition.
We were in SC for my son's graduation from boot camp in Parris Island. We were traveling with both grandmothers. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, lots of privacy. Easy drive to the base. I highly recommend this house. The owner was wonderful to deal with. I would recommend this house to others. Thank you !!
We stayed in this property before the current owners were in place. While it was pretty good before, they have made nice upgrades to the linens, new and added TV's and some kitchen items. This is super convenient to the club house area (restaurants, golf, tennis, pool and now pickleball). Brad was very responsive and proactive in prepping us for our trip. Very accommodating and professional to deal with. Having two guests as "members" with golf included is an excellent value!
Wonderful home~perfect for the girlfriends getaway. Everyone appreciated having their own private bed/bath. Home situated amongst the trees/ponds/golf course, Enjoyed sitting on the porch listening to the many birds in the morning as we sipped our coffee. Kitchen was fully stocked. Smooth communication with hosts and they responded quickly to questions. Would definitely recommend you check it out~
