Hilton Head tends to specialize in high-end rentals—mostly of upscale, ocean-fronting luxury homes and villas, with higher prices than what’s available in less-desirable parts of South Carolina. But in recent years, the island’s roster of lodgings has expanded to include some simple economy lodgings as well. Most facilities offer discount rates between November and March, and golf and tennis packages are available year-round.
