Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort Review

This medium-scale, cost-effective, family-conscious resort is on a 15-acre island, inland from the coast, that rises above Hilton Head's widest estuary, Broad Creek. About 20 woodsy-looking buildings are arranged into a compound. Expect lots of pine trees and fallen pine needles, garlands of Spanish moss, plenty of families with children, and an ambience that's several notches less intense than that of hotels in Disney theme parks. Characters include Shadow the Dog (a golden retriever that is the resort's mascot) and Blue Crab, a storyteller, fisherman, and musician. Part of the fun is the many summer-camp-style activities for kids with or without their parents. Guest rooms usually contain minikitchens, suitable for feeding sandwiches and macaroni to the kids. Tide Me Over is a walk-up window serving Carolina cookery for breakfast and lunch. The resort runs a shuttlebus to and from a nearby beach at 15-minute intervals daily between 10am and 5pm.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; 3 outdoor pools; fitness center; Wi-Fi in public areas; babysitting; laundry service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
