Port Royal Plantation Real Estate
Elegant and Quiet Coastal Living
Port Royal is one of the few private oceanfront residential communities on Hilton Head Island. Tucked away on the northeastern tip of the island, this gated neighborhood offers unmatched privacy, security, and prestige. With no short-term rentals allowed, Port Royal attracts full-time residents and second-home buyers seeking tranquility and timeless Lowcountry elegance.
About the Community
Port Royal combines the charm of classic Southern architecture with the natural beauty of Hilton Head’s coastline. The neighborhood features a wide array of homes—from grand oceanfront estates to golf-view residences—all thoughtfully designed to complement their surroundings. With miles of walking trails, mature landscaping, and a strong sense of community, Port Royal is an ideal setting for those who value quiet luxury.
Homeowners also enjoy optional membership at the nearby Port Royal Golf & Racquet Club, which offers championship golf, tennis, pickleball, and oceanfront dining. Dolphin Head Beach, a private soundfront park, gives residents rare direct access to the shoreline without the crowds.
