All three golf courses are 18-hole championship layouts. Each of our courses are suitable for all golfers and offer a variety of tee options, including junior and senior tees. For beginner golfers who are still learning to play, or families with young children, we recommend trying 9-holes at the Arthur Hills or George Fazio course. The Robert Trent Jones course does not offer 9-hole rounds.

The spas and pools can be heated June through October for an additional fee. The date parameters are part of the rental agreement we have with the owners. The heat pump that is used in the private homes pulls the air from the outside and uses that to heat the pool, it does not generate heat. During the fall, winter and spring the temperatures usually dip below 50 degrees and essentially make the heater unusable.

Please call one of our Vacation Planners at 888-909-9566 to ask about specific spa & pool heating.
Pool and Spa heat = $850.00 (Up to 7 days)
Pool heating only = $750.00
Spa heating only = $425.00 (Up to 7 days)
11 Armada Spa & Pool = $1000 (Up to 7 days)

To provide the best selection of available tee times, we require our guests to secure their tee time reservations with a credit card. Your card will not be charged when the reservation is made. However, you are subject to a payment penalty if the reserved tee time is missed or the number of players is reduced without at least 24 hours of advance notice.

The reason for the fee is that the roads in Sea Pines are all privately owned and operated. This fee is used by Community Service Associates (CSA) in Sea Pines, which is the operational arm of the residential and resort community, to pay for road maintenance and security. When you enter Sea Pines, you are inside a PUD (Planned Unit Development) that is owned by the residents and are no longer on roads that are owned or maintained by the town, county or state. Sea Pines does grant limited access to the public through the gate fee they charge to general visitors. Registered vacation guests of the resort and guests of owners can receive a complimentary pass for access during their stay.

Neighborhood swimming pools are located throughout the resort. You will have access to the pool in the neighborhood where your villa is located.

All vacation rentals have a washer and dryer within the unit for your use and convenience.
