Hotel is undergoing total renovation so they are gutting the building. Construction debris, no amenities but the had the gall to try and charge $10 additional for a "resort fee". Avoid this place until summer when they should have completed the work More

Great location on the island, and has ocean front beach, pool, and tiki bar just outside the back door. Very close to the best golf, and very nice for my wife to hang out while I'm playing. We were both happy with this hotel. Not the best rooms on the island, but very good for the money. Also has Coligny... More

We had a terrible experience with this hotel. When my husband called for reservations, he talked to a foreign person who could barely speak understandable English. He reserved an oceanfront room with king bed. When we arrived, we were told we had a room with a queen Murphy bed, that the hotel was under renovation, that only first floor rooms... More

The hotel staff is friendly; the hotel location is nice (though few rooms actually face the ocean); the rooms are plain but contemporary; and Hilton Head Island is a nice place to be. The hotel is under construction (as of Dec. 2011). When we checked in, the concierge informed us that only the first and second floor were available and... More

The overall impression was beautiful and clean, but the one thing I came to do was relax and sleep. I was unable to with the hard beds. I ended up waking up a few times to finally lay all the pillows down from both beds to sleep on. LOL. So much for being green! But overall, a good experience. More

I booked this room sight unseen and was thrilled that the pool was wonderful, beach access was perfect, it was walking distance from shopping and restaurants, and staff members were amazing, especially desk clerk Jonathan. Don't pay for an ocean view if you plan to be outside as I was. Also, request a partial view for the lowest price, 3rd... More

This hotel is in a prime location in Hilton Head on the ocean in the Coligny area. Unfortunately, the hotel is in need of updating, possibly not updated in the last 20 years or more. They offer free WiFi, but I had to call the technical support to get any connectivity. Coffee and muffins were furnished from 7 to 10... More

Stayed at the Hilton Head Island Holiday Inn Oceanfront Nov 11, 12. It was within walking distance of shopping and restaurants and the beach is beautiful. Internet access was good, TV was limited and the restaurant was closed. The place was clean and we really didn't have any complaints. More
