Hilton Head Health

What Hilton Head Health does

Hilton Head Health (H3) is a privately held, all-inclusive wellness resort founded in 1976 by behavioral psychologist Dr. Peter Miller, operating on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina within the gated Shipyard Plantation community. The company runs a 30-room Sweetgrass Inn and adjacent Private Villas, supported by an on-campus ecosystem that includes the True Dining restaurant (calorie-controlled menus meeting American Heart Association, American Cancer Society, and American Diabetes Association guidelines), the Indigo Spa, a Healthy Kitchen culinary education venue, a Blue Zone Sports Court, and 50+ weekly fitness and wellness classes. The core offering is the H3 Experience, built on three pillars — Movement, Nutrition, and Mindset — with specialized program paths: Metabolic Health (weight loss and weight management), Life Balance (stress reduction and mindfulness), GLP-1 Support Experience (for guests on or tapering off GLP-1 medications), and the Blue Zones™ Experience (a seven-day longevity retreat co-developed with Blue Zones LLC, capped at 14 guests per week).

The company monetizes through per-person-per-night all-inclusive resort packages with seasonal pricing across five rate windows, requiring a $1,000 per-person-per-week deposit. The integrated revenue model bundles accommodations, meals, classes, workshops, and H3$ resort credits, supplemented by public-facing transactional revenue from the Indigo Spa, Healthy Kitchen cooking classes, and a la carte enhancements (personal training, nutrition consultations, fitness assessments, continuous glucose monitor consultations, private coaching, and pickleball lessons). A digital extension, H3 at Home, delivers remote 1:1 and group coaching, live-streamed workouts, a video library, and a customized mobile app to sustain guest engagement post-stay. Go-to-market is primarily direct-to-consumer via the company website, toll-free 800-292-2440 line, and Program Consultants, supplemented by travel-industry distribution through Spafinder and TripAdvisor, plus content marketing via the H3ALTH TALK podcast, blog, and earned media placements in Forbes, Oprah Daily, Good Housekeeping, Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast, and BBC Travel.

The customer base is exclusively individual adult wellness seekers with no disclosed enterprise or B2B contracts. Named customer testimonials are uniformly individual weight-loss and lifestyle-change stories. Headcount is not disclosed; the company is privately held with no funding rounds, no parent organization, and no public ownership. Operating geographies are limited to the United States, with global draw via travel booking platforms.
