Marriott's Grande Ocean

10/10 Excellent

"On the ocean. Family friendly."

Doubletree by Hilton Hilton Head Island

8/10 Good

"Rooms were small for the price. You have to pay extra for breakfast, website says buffet but you order off the menu in the restaurant at a $15 limit, after that you pay the rest. Only 2 things on menu were $15 or under. If I would of know this before hand, I wouldn't of paid for the breakfast. Hotel is right by a beach access."

Spark By Hilton Hilton Head Island

8/10 Good

"MopThe property was well kept, the staff were helpful, breakfast was nutritional, but the juice was left sitting out, and it was room temperature which I would have preferred to be cold. The hotel had a $10 a day parking fee which I thought should have been free for the customers. The beach wasn't far, and the hotel did have a shuttle to transport customer's to the beach, but if you preferred to drive your own vehicle there was pay parking near the beach $3.35 during the week, and $5.35 on the weekend, but they close at 5 p.m, so be prepared if you're driving your vehicle and want to spend the day at the beach. It's a nice place, but if I could say anything to the management, it would be that an air vent installed in the bathroom would be a plus for this property. I would recommend this hotel, great place to go."
