Sea’ la Vie is a ground-floor (no stairs) unique escape destination with top-of-the-line comforts of any 5-star rental or hotel. Our villa has been renovated from top to bottom.

The space
Sea’ la Vie is a unique escape destination with top-of-the-line comforts of any 5-star rental. The beach is only a few minutes walk from the villa. You should not need to pack anything other than your flip-flops, and a toothbrush. We hope we have included everything and anything you could ever desire or dream of.

All the primary small kitchen appliances are Breville© and include a 4-slice toaster, blender, tea kettle, food processor etc. Gourmet coffee includes a Nespresso© coffee and espresso maker (including milk frother), Keurig© with a sampler pack of pods and a traditional drip coffee maker with our premium Hilton Head Escapes blend of roasted coffee. And if requested when you reserve, a Breville© crock-pot, waffle maker or immersion blender, and an air fryer or Kitchen-Aid© stand mixer can be added to your rental at no expense.

We thoughtfully designed the second bedroom to provide a more flexible sleeping arrangement than you typically find in a vacation rental. With its own en-suite bathroom, the room features a Queen-size bed on the bottom with a twin bunk above.
This configuration makes the villa especially versatile. Two couples can comfortably enjoy the home with a queen bed in the second bedroom, while families can place the parents in the King bedroom and the children in the second bedroom together. The upper twin bunk is best suited for children and does have a weight restriction, so we recommend it for the little ones.

It’s a unique setup that allows the villa to comfortably accommodate different types of families and traveling groups without sacrificing privacy or comfort.

Bringing a little one? We’re happy to provide a Pack ’n Play and highchair upon request. Please let us know in advance so we can have everything prepared for your arrival.

We warmly welcome SERVICE Animals. Documented ESA travel companions are also welcome with advance notice so we can properly coordinate with the property management team and ensure everyone is aligned prior to your stay.

While this is not a pet-friendly property, we are certainly animal lovers and are happy to accommodate properly documented ESA and of course Service Animals (no documentation required)

.
The towels and linens are of high-quality and high thread count. The beds include blankets, three pillows per head, and coverlets. We even have a full-size ironing board with a Rowenta© iron.

Everything, we mean everything! you need for the beach is included, Tommy Bahama© backpack style chairs, 6’ long beach towels, beach umbrella, bags, coolers, wagon, toys, games, etc.


Other necessities for fun include a Sonos© Wi-Fi speaker to connect your phone or iPods, tennis rackets, board games, card games, DVDs, several books with information on everything from the history to fun things to do.

Each bedroom has alarm clocks, white-noise machines, fans, earplugs, etc. The bath amenities include body wash, shampoo, conditioner, hand soap and make-up remover wipes.

Everything is just a short bike, drive or UBER©/Lyft© away. Almost every road on the island has a safe bike path. Bike rentals can be delivered right to your doorstep.

When we purchased this property, we had the option to purchase one overlooking a pool and our building because of the quietude the tennis courts bring.

The property is surrounded by parks, nature, and wildlife on the heel of the island where the Atlantic Ocean turns up into the Sound.

The Spa connects directly to Hilton Head’s bike trails. These "off road" trails (except for street crossings) cover the entire Island. Within a short distance from The Spa there are several Atlantic beach front public parks with showers, restrooms, picnic areas and playground. The Island boasts over 20 public golf courses, too many great restaurants to count, movie theaters, great shopping, and other exciting vacation activities. Savannah, GA is less than 1-hour away and Charleston, SC is about 2- hours away.

Guest access
The villa is easy to find. There will be a parking pass waiting for you (you will need cash to purchase each of them) at the guard gate in the name of the primary renter’s name. As soon as you pass through the guardhouse, turn right, first left, then left again. The villa is in the (A Building) ‘Alligator’ building in the middle of that building. There are a few stairs just steps away from the parking and the front door. You can also park at the end of the building where there is handicap ramp.

YOUR CODE to enter the property is the last four digits of the primary renter’s mobile phone number. If there are any problems, press the Ring© doorbell for assistance. If there are going to be multiple cars, please let us know in advance so we can have an additional parking pass waiting for you at the gate.

This is a whole house (condo, townhouse, villa, or single-family home) rental and you will not be sharing any internal spaces with strangers. However, we do have locked-off rooms and closets for our storage. None of our properties have cameras or noise monitoring devices of any kind. Some of our properties have Alexa© pucks, Google©-enabled devices, Wi-Fi-enabled appliances and/or Sonos© speakers of which may have microphones. You are welcome to unplug them if you have any privacy concerns. Do not unplug any of the internet equipment, remove any thermostat or smoke alarms. This could result in a potential fine and service call.

Other things to note
Please know the pool and spa temperatures and are nothing we can be in control of. If anything is not operating, please let’s know so we can alert the Property Management Company.

This community requires each car to have a valid parking pass. We will need to know the first and last name of each driver to authorize for security. Up to two vehicles are allowed per condo. Please be prepared to pay $35 for each parking pass, and the pass office only takes credit or debit cards. If you have a second vehicle, it must be parked in guest parking along the fence. There is not enough room for each condo to have two vehicles in front of the front door. Unfortunately this is something we cannot arrange ahead of time.

Neighborhood highlights

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 community consists of 268 condos, 42 one bedroom/ one bath villas and 226 two bedroom/ two bath villas.

Many of the owners call The Spa "home," while the rest of the owners use their villas as second homes and/or vacation rentals. Although The Spa is a small community, it provides its residents with an indoor pool complex, which includes a heated pool, a hot tub, fitness room, and large changing rooms. Other amenities include two outdoor pools, tennis courts, outdoor basketball court, picnic and grilling areas, a children's playground and our greatest asset - the beautiful "all natural" beach on the Port Royal Sound! Being located on the "heel" of the Island where the Atlantic Ocean turns up into the Sound, provides a view of the Atlantic Ocean and boats entering the Sound. 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.

The Spa connects directly to Hilton Head’s bike trails. These "off road" trails (except for street crossings) cover virtually the entire Island. Within a short distance from The Spa there are several Atlantic beach front public parks with showers, restrooms, picnic areas and playground. The Island boasts over 20 public golf courses, too many great restaurants to count, movie theaters, great shopping, and other exciting vacation activities. Savannah, GA is less than one hour away and Charleston, SC is about 1.5 hours away.

My work: Hilton Head Escapes
We are Kirtis and Kristopher, formerly The Boys of Bodega Bay. We had a luxury bed and breakfast on the California coast in the quaint town of Bodega Bay. 2019 brought us a new adventure when we moved to Hilton Head Island. We want to bring the high level of hospitality we had in our inn to our new vacation rentals on the island. Both of us have been hospitality professionals for decades. In Northern California, I (Kirtis) have held the General Manager roles for a 5-star Napa Valley resort, leading Sonoma Coast vitality spa and vacation home rental agency. Kristopher has worked as an Event Coordinator, Executive Chef, and in Marketing and Real Estate Administration. We have reflected on our vast experience and extensive world travels and hopefully thought of everything you would need to enjoy our special space.
