Our friends at the Harbour Town Lighthouse stay open until sundown, because sunsets from that fabled vantage point become an unforgettable experience. This makes for long midsummer day and yet, week by week, those days are getting shorter by a minute or two at a time, unnoticeable for most folks. What stays the same here, season after season, is the abundance of fun things to do when your home base on Hilton Head Island is Swallowtail at Sea Pines.

The Inside Story

Even folks who are already here, in high season, are talking about how nice it would be to come back in the fall. In fact, this is one of the bits of inside information that gets shared around the pool here in Swallowtail at Sea Pines. Visitors and owners, at one of the premier properties on America’s favorite vacation island, share generations of tips on how best to enjoy their time here. And there at the pool, one bit of that inside information is right at their feet.

You see, Swallowtail quietly boasts one of the few all-season swimming pools on Hilton Head Island. Because our sub-tropical climate is so kind already – a dreadful day in winter is when you switch from a golf sweater to a golf jacket – even the newest of vacation properties here seem to believe that an all-weather pool is unnecessary.

A Vacation You Can Depend On

Swallowtail at Sea Pines was one of the very first vacation properties to pioneer the field of fractional ownership, of ways to make sure that family and friends could look forward to an annual vacation in paradise, without the cares of owning a free-standing home. “More Hilton Head Island for less money,” is how one Swallowtail owner described it. In fact, the individualized touch that Swallowtail applies to this process sets it entirely apart from the huge timeshare systems that were inspired by the breakthroughs that began right here.

Instead, Swallowtail at Sea Pines makes that ownership decision just as easy to live with as it is to make in the beginning. Ask any owner. It’s well worth looking into for a vacation at any time of year.

The Pleasures of Centering

We made a study of what people found here that is of such excellent value, after many years of success in delivering dream vacations every year to visitors and owners of Swallowtail at Sea Pines. The answers were as varied as the folks we spoke with, and yet one central theme did emerge – and, in fact, the theme itself was central.

Located as we are in the middle of the Miracle Mile, the center of the original Hilton Head Island vision for a world-class resort – with Harbour Town, the Lighthouse, and the Yacht Basin less than a mile down the road to the right; the Sea Pines Beach Club down the road to the left; and The Shops at Sea Pines Center directly across from us on Lighthouse Road – Swallowtail at Sea Pines is the perfect vantage point for taking your pick, for making your own best choice of what to do with each day you spend in paradise.

With golf, beaches, boats, tennis, and art just steps away, and with natural beauty all around, visitors and residents find their own center, their calm place for pursuing their personal passions.
