Compare Hilton Head Communities
The price of a home is only part of what it costs to own one here. Each community sets its own dues, its own rules on renting and its own terms for the club, and the differences are large: from no club at all to one you must join. The table puts them side by side with what the homes are listed for today.

Homes listed and the median are today’s houses, villas and condos for sale, from the MLS; lots, timeshare weeks, co-ownership shares and boat slips are left out. Where only a few homes are listed, one sale moves the median a long way.
Dues are each association’s 2026 yearly assessment for a home, or the club dues where the club comes with the home. Several communities add a one-time fee when a home sells: Moss Creek’s $45,000 membership certificate, Long Cove’s $75,000 initiation fee, three years’ assessment in Indigo Run and one year’s in Windmill Harbour. *Hilton Head Plantation’s older, grandfathered homes can still rent short-term. Any stay under 30 days on the island also needs a Town short-term rental permit and business license. Each community’s page has the details.

Houses and Villas for Sale
The listings below are split the way the island itself is. Houses for sale sit on their own lot and pay their community’s POA fee. Villas are condominium units in named complexes, and they pay a regime fee on top — usually covering the roof, the exterior, the landscaping and the pool, and differing from complex to complex. So a house and a villa at the same price are two different kinds of ownership, not two sizes of the same one, and it is worth deciding which you want before you start comparing numbers.
Condos, Luxury Homes, Land and New Construction
Every island listing of one kind on one page: condos, the oceanfront buildings and beach houses, houses over $2 million, lots, and homes built in the last two years.

Beachfront Homes for Sale on Hilton Head Island
Sea Pines, Palmetto Dunes and Shipyard hold much of the island’s oceanfront, and their guides above cover it. Outside the big plantations, most beachfront and second-row homes and villas are in a few neighborhoods along the Atlantic side: Forest Beach, Folly Field and the Singleton Beach streets, plus Leamington, the gated south end of Palmetto Dunes. Short stays there need the Town’s short-term rental permit, and each villa complex adds rules of its own.
Forest Beach Homes and Condos
Forest Beach is the oceanfront along North and South Forest Beach Drive, the two streets that split at Coligny Circle. The oceanfront is lined with condo complexes and vacation-rental villas, and all of it is a walk from Coligny Plaza’s shops and restaurants. North Forest Beach runs toward Shipyard and is the quieter half; South Forest Beach runs toward the Sea Pines Ocean Gate and is the busier one. Behind South Forest Beach are the Lawton Beach and Palm Forest streets, which the MLS files under South Forest Beach.
Folly Field
Folly Field is the north-east shore off Folly Field Road, next to Port Royal Plantation, and the farthest beach neighborhood from Coligny’s crowds. It feels more like a neighborhood than a resort, with a town beach park at its center that has a boardwalk through the dunes, restrooms and summer lifeguards.
Singleton Beach Homes for Sale
Singleton Beach is mid-island, at the end of Singleton Beach Road next to Chaplin Community Park. The name covers a group of small private enclaves, Singleton Beach Place, Singleton by the Beach, the Village at Singleton Beach and Singleton Shores Manor, of oceanfront and second-row houses, most of them vacation rentals. There is no parking lot at the beach, so it stays quiet.
Leamington, in Palmetto Dunes
Leamington is the gated south end of Palmetto Dunes, with its own association, and it is the one beach neighborhood on this list behind a gate. It has two sides: single-family homes, where short-term rentals are not allowed, and oceanfront and second-row villas, where they are. The MLS files both under Leamington, so check which side a listing is on before you plan to rent it out.
Golf Communities in Hilton Head & Bluffton
Many of the area’s private golf clubs sit inside gated communities, and membership terms vary by club, so ask each club what it requires. Each page below covers the course, its designer, and who to call about membership.
