Leamington is an upscale private community within Palmetto Dunes that is accessed through gated security entrances on Highway 278 as well as access in Palmetto Dunes. It features 250+ single family homes / homesites, along with the new Oceanfront Townhomes at South Shore.

Greenwood Development Corporation, who created Palmetto Dunes and Palmetto Hall Plantation, designed the neighborhood in 1988. It ranges approximately 460 acres that include a swim club with boat-ramp access to Palmetto Dunes' 11-mile lagoon system and an ocean-front beach club. Owners of Leamington villas, townhomes, and single-family homes can also utilize all the amenities in Palmetto Dunes. The community's 18-hole Arthur Hills Golf Course is the site of the Old Hilton Head Rear Light, a historic lighthouse that sailors once used as a navigational tool.
