It’s 5 o’clock somewhere – but in Margaritaville, happy hour is all day every day. Humming to the tune of Jimmy Buffet, Margaritaville Holdings Inc., and Minto Communities LLC has brought the beach party to South Carolina’s low country, and the best news is that it’s exclusively for sun worshippers 55 and better. Located in Hardeeville, just under 30 minutes from the pristine beaches of Hilton Head Island, this sprawling paradise is expected to have over 3,000 homes upon completion, and over-the-top resort style amenities. Branching out from its current Daytona Beach location, Margaritaville’s newest installment will soon have active adults shaking it up with frosty, salt-rimmed glasses, and channeling “don’t worry be happy” vibes.
Margaritaville Hilton Head will transport active adults to an all-inclusive tropical oasis that features a collection of low-maintenance villas, and single-family homes priced from the mid 200’s. Exteriors have a coastal feel with airy pastels, charming shutters, and large windows to let in plenty of natural light. Block party, to housewarming celebration, these homes are designed to entertain with a variety of options including screened in lanais, large great rooms, and open island kitchens.
On the rocks or blended, this island getaway is just getting started. The concept behind Margaritaville is bringing the vacation home, and the amenities are out of this world. From the Paradise Pool and fully equipped gym, to group fitness classes, and lifelong learning opportunities, mind-body health is the core focus. Four-legged members will be able to ruff it up at the dog park or get the VIP treatment at the Barkaritaville Pet Spa before their owners head out to relax under a tiki hut, with a cocktail crafted by the poolside bar. Along with a bandshell area for enjoying live music, and savoring coastal cuisine, 55+ residents will also have access to the 290,000 square foot Margaritaville retail center.
Why should Florida have all the fun? South Carolina’s idyllic climate and laidback lifestyle is the perfect setting for this exciting new community. Surrounded by prehistoric oaks dripping in moss, stately Plantation homes, and all the genteel character of the Old South, the low Country and resort islands is a spectacular beachfront region made up of historic port towns, and endless outdoor recreation. When Margaritaville’s residents aren’t basking in the sun, they’ll find more than three dozen golf courses, outstanding dining, and a vibrant art scene, but it might take some persuading to leave the corner of paradise they’ll soon call home.
