Captain William Hilton must have been thrilled when he landed on the shores of Port Royal amid the semi-tropical foliage, white sand beaches and sparkling lagoons. The site of a Union troop encampment in the late 1800s, Port Royal is now the only private oceanfront residential plantation on Hilton Head. Amenities include three golf courses, an antebellum style clubhouse, croquet and racquet courts as well as an oceanfront swimming pool. Wildlife abounds in Port Royal and the homes range from modest ranch style to palatial. There are three championship golf courses in Palmetto Dunes which offers both a residential community as well as a resort environment complete with many outstanding vacation homes and villas.
