The Quarterdeck at Harbour Town

Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

A Coastal Landmark Reimagined with Performance-Driven Design

When JE Dunn completed the redevelopment of the iconic Quarterdeck Restaurant at The Sea Pines Resort, the goal was clear: create a dining destination worthy of one of the most recognizable waterfront settings in the Lowcountry. The new 18,000-square-feet, two-story structure sits at the entrance to Harbour Town, just steps from the marina and famed lighthouse.

With seating for over 500 guests, a rooftop oyster bar, and 270-degree views overlooking the Harbour Town Yacht Basin, Calibogue Sound, and the 18th hole of Harbour Town Golf Links, the restaurant quickly became one of the most sought-after dining venues on Hilton Head Island.

The Challenge: Preserve the View, Control the Elements

Upon opening in April 2022, the restaurant quickly began suffering from intense summer sun beating on the back of the restaurant, creating an uncomfortable environment for guests and staff alike.

Savannah Blinds’ challenge was set: enhance comfort and protection without compromising the architecture or the view.

Our Solution: Layered Systems, Custom-Tailored

Savannah Blinds’ partnered with JE Dunn’s team to deliver a fully integrated package of interior and exterior solutions, each designed specifically for performance in a high-traffic hospitality environment.

Exterior Enhancements:

  • Flat panel shutters fitted with custom copper caps, adding both protection and architectural detail
  • First-floor awnings engineered to reduce direct sun exposure while maintaining open-air appeal
  • Protective aluminum storm panels for reliable defense during severe weather

Interior Coverings:

  • Faux wood blinds for durability and moisture resistance
  • Handcrafted Roman shades for refined light control
  • Custom color-blocked draperies accented with satin brass hardware, elevating the interior aesthetic while softening light

The Result: Comfort Without Compromise

The result is a seamless balance of form and function. Guests enjoy a comfortable dining space without sacrificing the expansive waterfront views that define the restaurant’s experience. Each system we installed works together to manage light, reduce heat, and provide storm readiness.
