Holiday Inn Express Hilton Head Island by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Thanks"

Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Oak Resort Hilton Head

10/10 Excellent

"Location, room features, and access to ocean was fabulous! We grocery shopped locally and had breakfast and snacks in the room and ate out for dinner daily. The pools weren’t too busy and we were able to have pool chairs daily. Easy to go back and forth from pool to ocean. We enjoyed lights out at 10pm, the resort was quiet and relaxing. Housekeeping was a little confusing as a “renter” vs member but front desk staff helped explain."

Coral Sands Resorts by Palmera

8/10 Good

"Great place and was mostly happy with everything. Like to give it 5 Stars but knocking it down a bit because it’s the 1st place I’ve ever booked that shows it has a coffee maker (which it did) but doesn’t come with any coffee supplies whatsoever. Thinking it was a housekeeping oversight, I went up to the front desk and was informed they do not supply coffee supplies but do serve coffee in the lobby……starting at 8:30AM. Too late for me. So had to scramble around that night and find a grocery store to buy coffee, filters, sugar and cream. Kind of a pain. Also, no ability to call anyone for help after the office closes unless it’s an emergency (clearly defined in their check-in package as pretty much life threatening)."

Marriott's Grande Ocean

10/10 Excellent

"The staff here is top notch! They communicated via text to welcome us and let us know to advise them of any needs. Addie is amazing! She did a great job with answering our questions and checking on us throughout the stay. The grounds are extremely clean. They do an excellent job of maintaining the building also ans cleaning the rooms. Everything about this place is top notch! In fact, this was our 2nd stay. We loved it so much the first time we were here a weekend ago, that we decided to come back! As soon as we touched down from Punta Cana, we immediately made the 4 hour drive to come back. "
