HILTON HEAD, S.C., July 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE fun continues as Minto Communities USA and Margaritaville Holdings announced today that the grand opening event held on Saturday, June 30, for LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Hilton Head's nine model homes was a resounding success. More than 2,500 people attended the grand opening celebration to get a first look at the active adult community's new model homes and Lake Latitude Club featuring a resort-style pool, sandy beach area, fitness center and party room.

According to Minto's LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Division President William Bullock, "Our customers and future residents alike enjoyed a Margaritaville-style street party with live entertainment, food, music and fun where they were able to experience the unmatched LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE lifestyle first hand. Once again, the feedback from those who visited is that there is nothing else like it."

The interest in living the laid-back Margaritaville lifestyle of fun, friends, food and music continues to spread with active adults who are growing older but not up. An unprecedented amount of people has registered to-date to receive continuing information on LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE, and the number just keeps on growing.

"This was exciting the minute we walked in the sales center. We took a look at the amenity center and it was so appealing – the fitness center, theater, the grill and then looking at the models, it was a lot to choose from," said Iris Christ, the first home owner at LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Hilton Head.

LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Hilton Head's low-maintenance homes feature open, airy spaces that maximize natural light and flow into uniquely designed outdoor living spaces perfect for enjoying the mild South Carolina climate. Homes are designed for relaxing, entertaining and comfortably accommodating houseguests. Spacious master suites include large walk-in closets and raised height vanities in the master bath.

LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Hilton Head model homes are from three distinct villa and single-family home collections — the Caribbean, Beach and Island. Influenced by the spectacular South Carolina setting and charming classic coastal architecture of the Lowcountry, home styles also capture the "no worries" tropical vibe of the community.

Four villa home models include the Antigua, Barbuda, Jamaica and Nevis, ranging from 1,558 to 1,862 square feet under air. All have two bedrooms, den or hobby room, two baths, covered lanai and two-car garage. Villa pricing starts at $243,990. Many additional villa floor plans are available.

Five single-family home models include the Coconut, Parrot, Breeze, Aruba and Trinidad. Single-family home models range from 2,080 to 2,564 square feet under air and feature two to three bedrooms plus den, two to three-car garages, two to three-and-a-half baths and a covered lanai. Single-family home pricing starts at $293,990. Many additional single-family floor plans are available.

LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Hilton Head residents will enjoy walkable neighborhoods, golf-cart friendly streets and a lively Town Center. Music will play an important part in the community, and residents will enjoy live entertainment under the bandshell and dancing in the Latitude Town Square. A state-of-the-art Fins Up! Fitness Center will include aerobics studio, indoor lap pool, spa, group fitness classes, wellness and community programs and more.

The Paradise Pool will feature a beach entry, cabanas and tiki huts. Residents can hone their skills on the tennis, pickleball and bocce ball courts. At the Workin' N' Playin' Center, arts, crafts and other programs will be offered as well as a Coconut Telegraph Business Center. Additional amenities for dining and recreation include a Latitude Bar & Chill Restaurant, Changes in Attitude poolside bar and Last Mango Theater for dances and banquets. Residents can tune up their golf carts at The Hanger workshop. There will even be a Barkaritaville Pet Spa and Dog Park. In addition to the many recreational amenities, an adjoining 290,000-square-foot golf cart-accessible neighborhood retail center is being developed in partnership with Sutton Properties, Inc.

Sales have begun in LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Hilton Head's Phase 1 that includes 203 home sites. Current plans call for a total of 3,000 homes. LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Hilton Head is the second of the communities to open. LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Daytona Beach debuted nine model homes last February, and residents have begun moving into their new homes there. Plans for LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Watersound, located in the Florida Panhandle near Panama City Beach, were announced in May with a projected opening date in early 2020.

"Our grand opening event was a sneak peek of what life will be like living in Latitude Margaritaville," said Tamara Baldanza-Dekker, chief marketing officer of Margaritaville. "It's incredible to see the friendships and sense of community that already exists here. It's truly something special to be part of!"

LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE Hilton Head is located at 356 Latitude Boulevard, Hardeeville, South Carolina on Highway 278, two-and-a-half miles east of I-95. Sales Center hours are Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
