On Hilton Head condominiums tend to be called villas. This is the Barrington, in Palmetto Dunes. More reasonably priced than the previous “beach hut”, the condos also rent by the week. Note the picturesque lagoon. Possibly the property that you rent will look something similar to this. Hilton Head is approximately 12 miles long and 4 miles wide in places and encompasses some 42 square miles. There is a wide range of accommodation available, from motels to luxury resorts and large luxury homes, beachfront or within walking distance from the beach.
