Sonesta Resort Hilton Head Island

This was our first time staying at the Sonesta Hilton Head, but it certainly will not be our last. This resort is one of the best my wife and I have ever stayed at, and we travel all over the world. First off, the resort is clean and very welcoming. From the moment you walk through the door it is impressive. The check in process was first class, the room was clean and spacious, the staff was friendly and polite. The pools were awesome, the grounds were well kept, and the food at all of the restaurants was delicious and well priced. It was a very short walk to the beach which was nice. The resort is within the Shipyard neighborhood, so it is kind of tucked back from the ocean with trees surrounding it. If you are looking for a resort right on the beach with views of the ocean, this is not it. Not their fault, just the placement of the buildings. Overall, I would give this resort an excellent rating as this will now become a once a year trip for us moving forward.

This resort is in the Shipyard District, relatively close to Coligny Plaza. There are some nice restaurants within 1-2 miles. Rooms are spacious, staff are helpful, they have an outdoor pool and beach access. They have a store where you can buy breakfast items instead of going to the restaurant. It appears to be popular for weddings. It has very nice grounds. Good place!

Resort was wonderful! We loved the adult only pool. The bed was very comfortable and sheets amazing. The food and drink options were great too.

It’s a beautiful resort on the beach. They struggled at check-in. Rooms weren’t ready, long lines, and people at the desk were overwhelmed. Things got better. The pool area is wonderful, with a large kid-friendly pool and a quieter one for adults. The rooms are comfortable. We loved the bed. Our room had a balcony overlooking the pool. Nice amenities in the rooms. I would’ve thought they would have more restaurants than they do. The food was good, but for more options you need to drive off the resort. The staff are friendly and helpful. The beach is easily accessible from the resort.

Spring break trip with my gals! We had such a great time, we picked Sonesta specifically for the adult only pool which we took advantage of! I read some of these reviews and it makes me wonder if all the ones complaining about the wrong kind of room actually booked through the resort or through something like priceline because I used to do that and you never get what they promise you and I had to learn the hard way. The only way to make reservations is to go directly through the resort because if you pick an outside place to try and get cheaper rates, that's on you! We loved the drinks at Sweet Canes and nikki was great. The beach was crowded but its spring break so what can you expect? I also love having a coffee pot in my room so I dont have to go anywhere when I first get up. The grounds and beautiful and the hammocks, very relaxing!
