Located on the north end of Hilton Head Island. Spanish Wells is one of the smaller communities on Hilton Head. With over 200 homes spread across nearly 400 acres, there is plenty of space for privacy and sophisticated architecture. Spanish Wells Plantation is not along the beaches as are other local plantations, though it borders water, but within three miles or so one can find not only the sand and waves but gourmet supermarkets, an airport, a hospital, and plenty of shopping. Drive all the way down Spanish Wells Road, past houses and subdivisions, and the elaborate homes within are a surprise, appearing almost out of nowhere.

Spanish Wells Plantation has a semi-private golf country club and members enjoy the 9 hole golf course.  There are a number of tennis courts and a large community metting area perfect for watching Hilton Head's beautiful sunsets by the Intercoastal Waterway.
