Hilton Head Island Beach & Tennis Resort

Hilton Head Island Beach & Tennis Resort

10/10 Excellent
"This is our second time staying at Hilton Head Island Beach & Tennis Resort. We love the proximity to the beach. An easy, few minute walk and you’re on the sand! The beach was perfect. Not too crowded and seceral lifeguards present. Multiple pools is a great option. The smaller pool was next to our building and perfect for our family. Check-in and out was a breeze. Most staff members we interacted with were a delight! Polite and helpful! I do wish condo owners would keep a broom & dustpan on hand instead of only a small vacuum. There were a few things that needed to be fixed in the condo, but nothing that inhibited our stay. Chairs and boards were available if needed. There’s nothing better than having your morning breakfast or nightcap and seeing the ocean/hearing waves crashing."
