Great Location
We had a wonderful time staying here. There were only 4 of us so we had plenty of room. The location is perfect! We have been coming to HHI for many years and we liked this location the best. We visited in Oct this year and had the beach almost to ourselves. It was beautiful weather which helped. The kitchen in this house is very well stocked and Ted is great at getting back to any questions we had ASAP. We will be back!

Fantastic vacation!
The house, pool area and yard exceeded our expectations- even better than the photos! We had teens through grandparents and all loved our stay. Fully equipped kitchen with literally everything you need. Quiet part of the beach but only a short bike ride to the Salty Dog for a meal out, music and great ice cream. We love HHI and this was one of our best rentals yet. Ted was hands-down the best homeowner we have rented from - really helpful, great tips on things to do, and very responsive. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Everything we wanted and needed
We have stayed at many properties over the years with our family and this house and location was my favorite. The house was beautiful and spacious. The back yard with the pool and ocean view made our trip so nice. We loved the location and biked to breakfast, dinner, the park or for ice cream each day. The host was very good and always responded quickly. I would definitely like to stay here again.

wonderful home with excellent beach location. Pool was very nice and heated to a temperature my friends really liked. We had a few issues with the heat and TV's but they were addressed promptly by the owner and the maintenance person was very nice and professional. could use some upkeep related to the window/door screens , but we all had a terrific time and would choose to stay at this location again.

Great Visit
We have been to Sea Pines at Hilton Head several times and thoroughly enjoyed this house. The oceanfront house is close to the beach, the pool in October had a fabulous heater, and the deck is 100% covered. The inside is roomy and had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to cover the needs of 9 adults with two small children under 2 years of age. We would definitely stay at this location again.

A Private Gem
This was about our 30th time traveling to Sea Pines for a family vacation and the house was the perfect gathering spot for the 4 generations who made it. The waterfront location with a private boardwalk made it very easy to access the beach but the house is set back from the water so is also very private. The kitchen has been recently remodeled and is completely stocked with all the necessary supplies for cooking. (We cooked in almost every night even though Ted provided a very comprehensive list of high-end to quick eating options in the area. Great list!) There are two dining areas that could seat up to 12 comfortably; one became the game/puzzle place. Some of the bathrooms have been recently remodeled too; a few are a little older. The twin beds were a little small for the over 20 crowd but would be perfect for those under 15. Check-in and check-out were convenient and so quick. Ted was VERY responsive throughout the entire process. We hope to come back again next year.

Fantastic location and view
Great house for our two families with kids. Spacious house with a nice kitchen renovation. Gas grill right off the kitchen. Elevator was helpful to have to bring up groceries and would be great for those who can’t do the stairs. 2car garage and large driveway. AC works great throughout. The shaded deck and view are priceless. We really enjoyed the house, beach and pool. Lots of biking to salty dog, beach club and harbourtown. A fantastic week!

This house is perfectly located on the beach in Sea Pines and has lots of space to spread out with a large group. It is an interesting mix of old beach house and newer modern updates. The kitchen is fantastic with everything you need and more to cook like you are at home. The owner is super responsive and helpful and the management company was easy to deal with also. Great family place and nice garage to keep cars out of the sun and sand.

About the host

Hosted by Ted Leavitt

Host profile image
We spend a lot of time on the move. The picture comes from our many years in London, England. Our grown children also got a bit of the travel bug and are now spread around the globe -- Scranton PA, San Juan PR/Chengdu China, and London UK.

Hilton Head is in our blood. Ted's grandmother came from Bluffton before leaving in 1911 and the relatives owned places like Rose Hill, Victoria Bluff, and Kirk's Bluff (along the May River) back when land was cheap, cheap (1800s - 1960s)

Why they chose this property

Our house has been in the Leavitt family since Ted's father bought the property from Charles Fraser on a hunting trip in the early 1960s. We bought the house in 1998 and then did a complete renovation in order to bring the house up to date. The old beach houses were very open (you had to go outside to the downstairs bedroom!) and we converted it to a 5-bedroom, 5-bath format, while maintaining the character from the early days of Sea Pines. In 2014/2015, we did a major extension to add some of the features we've really wanted to over the years. This has given us a nice master suite, some proper garages, elevator, office/study and a dining room for entertaining the entire group that is there.

What makes this property unique

Having come to Hilton Head since 1962, our house reflects the dichotomy of a modern version of an original Sea Pines beach cottage with the simplicity of beach life. We personally feel the privacy of our setting is a unique benefit, but each person will have their own viewpoint.
