The Swallowtail complex is 1 mile from the Sea Pines Beach Club beach.
From early Spring to late Fall, there is a trolley that stops across the
street and makes it very easy to get there and back. There is also a
parking lot at the beach club that you can access, but in the summer
months, there are a limited number of parking spaces available for anyone
who is not a full-time property owner, which we are not as timeshare
owners. There is also full-time, year-round access to Tower Beach for
Swallowtail owners. This beach is private, very nice, and less crowded.
It's about 2 1/2 miles from Swallowtail, closer to the South Beach area
of Sea Pines. Regarding gate pass access to Sea Pines, as an owner, you
will enjoy access to Sea Pines, and will be able to pick up a Sea Pines
gate pass upon arrival, just outside the main gate at the Sea Pines
Welcome Center. The pass is free to you as an owner. There is a $100
assessment that has already been approved for next year. None others are
in the works. The units, roofs, siding, grounds, interiors, etc. are in
good repair. Directly across the street from Swallowtail is the Sea Pines
Center, and there is a bike rental concession there. There are also many
other bike rentals locations in and out of Sea Pines, and delivery and
pick-up is offered by these services. I am a huge fan of Swallowtail and
love coming to Hilton Head every year so, YES, I would purchase again.
Compared to renting, it's quite a bargain. The location is fabulous. The
units are spacious. And once you own, you can count on having a great
vacation every year.
