They also have bike rentals that we took advantage of to get around the resort and take on rides around the preserve, but more on that below! We literally took it everywhere the first day to get ourselves acquainted with the area. One of our favorite parts of the whole trip was being able to explore the two villages and all of Palmetto Bluff via a golf cart! There’s like golf cart culture there and it’s so fun. There are a few small villages, Wilson and Moreland, located within Palmetto Bluff, but when the Montage came in in 2014, they took over all of Palmetto Bluff so everything in Wilson and Moreland are part of the Montage resort – including grocery stores and restaurants! So anytime you go to them, you can charge everything you buy to your room! It’s so convenient and feels like one giant, yet small community. They use the term “Lowcountry” because there are sandhills in the area and anything above those sandhills is called the Highcountry and anything below is called the Lowcountry. Palmetto Bluff is technically a preserve in South Carolina’s Lowcountry, which is a region in South Carolina with its own history, food and culture. May is technically considered their “high season” and I can totally see why – the weather was perfect! If you’re thinking about planning a visit and you want to stay in Palmetto Bluff specifically, the Montage is your only option (there are tons of hotels on Hilton Head Island but Palmetto Bluff is kind of its own community/area), which is where we stayed – we’re really big on resort-like places where everything is easy and close together, so The Montage Palmetto Bluff was perfect! We went in the middle of May and stayed for an entire week. They actually just opened a direct Southwest flight from Dallas to Hilton Head this year, so it was perfect! I’m not quite ready to deal with a connecting flight right now with a baby – sounds like too many variables.
It seemed like the perfect little getaway for us and once we saw that there was a direct flight from Dallas, we were SOLD. He grew up going to Sea Island during the summers and had heard Palmetto Bluff was similar but different and worth checking out. It’s been so long since I’ve done a blog post recapping a trip, but this one was too good not to dedicate a blog post to! We actually had a trip planned to Mexico for this same week but had some issues getting Four a passport so we had to cancel 3 weeks out.ĭuncan had always wanted to visit Palmetto Bluff since hearing about it from a few friends, so it has always been on our list.
