  • Had a room close to elevator. Enjoyed the pool with my wife. Located close to everything I wanted.
  • Close to the beach. Far away to avoid traffic. Clean and staff was helpful. No real golf package deals. Had to find my own deals. Cumbersome on short notice.

“My wife and I both enjoyed the stay. Will use Priceline again for good price reductions.”

  • Convenience of parking, and comfortable beds.
  • Hotel is starting to show it's age.

“We definitely got our money's worth, but it doesn't really seem like a four star resort anymore. The facilities have really been down
and the staff wasn't overly helpful like they usually are in nicer resorts.”

  • Room very attractive.
  • Long way from beach with no view whatsoever.

“We were very disappointed in the hotel. The room was a very long distance from the elevator and we couldn't even hear the ocean from our room. The bell staff was extremely helpful but the hotel didn't live up to our expectation or our memory. We had stayed there many years ago.”

  • Nice rooms and bath amenities-good access to beach and good parking.
  • Do not like the resort fee-do not use gym or pool.

“Nice check in-rooms were pleasant-no one around with a cart-no valet present so that was annoying. But overall a very nice experience.”

  • Staff is courteous. Brella's food is good.
  • Horrible value for the money, not a 4 star hotel.

“Lovely location. Grounds and area are spectacular. Value for the money is poor. It is definitely not a 4 star hotel, more like a 3 star. the value for the $ is poor. You are charged a ridiculous resort fee daily. No lobby coffee. Room had a view of the roof and noisy parking lot. Very disappointing. Brella's food is good but so overpriced. Would come again, but probably not stay here. It was a long drive for what we got.”

  • We felt like we were at a very nice place.
  • Our room overlooked the roof and air conditioner. It was noisy.

“The hotel was very nice. We would recommend it to anyone. The only downfall was our balcony overlooked a big, ugly roof. We didn't get to view the resort from our room.”

  • Loved the view.
  • A nasty staff member.

“I just left this hotel last week, everything was pretty nice, there was a man who was very nice to us when we were looking for someone to look at our air conditioner. We returned to our room and received a nasty call from the chief engineer, he wanted to know why we stopped an employee in the hall instead of calling the operator. I was shocked this man was rude and very nasty to me on the phone. I am writing a letter to the corporate office and will never stay at this hotel or any other Crown Plaza. The rest of the staff tried very hard to accommodate us even stating that this man had a reputation of being rude to hotel guests and was very mean and abusive to his crew and other staff members.”

  • Located in the center of the island.
  • Too far from the ocean--long walk.

“Hotel was somewhat older, however it was clean. The facilities were average or above. The pool and bar area was nice and clean. The only real disadvantage for the hotel was the distance of the ocean which was farther than normal for a resort.”

  • Proximity to the beach and had beautiful grounds.
  • The $13 resort fee seemed excessive for the privilege of parking a car.

“The hotel was in a beautiful setting fronting the beach. However, in spite of having several parking lots adjacent to it, we were unable to find a parking spot after dinner, because of a function that was taking place in the hotel. This was particularly frustrating since we were required to pay the resort fee for parking, pool, and free coffee in the room. The valet service offered to park our car in their lot for an additional $5. It was a little cool for outdoor swimming in March, so the fee seemed unjustified. The rooms were badly in need of updating. Our room had a nice view of the pool, but was a very long distance from the elevator.”

  • Located within a private complex that provides a bit of privacy.
  • Many parts of the hotel (bathrooms, hallways, elevators) are dated and could use some repair.

“Overall a decent quality property for Hilton Head Island. Rooms are decorated nicely and are fairly current. Our bathroom was not in the greatest of shape but was fine for the typical leisure traveler. Hotel is located in a private community/complex that requires you to obtain a gate pass. Free parking was a plus.”

  • Good location.
  • $13 per day resort fee for what?

“The hotel was nice enough but not altogether what I expected from a resort. It is technically oceanfront, but very far back from the ocean. I was charged an additional resort fee when I checked in and the clerk said that there was an explanation of what it included somewhere in my check in documents, but I never found it. The concierge was friendly but the response to any question was a recommendation for some facility on the premises.”

“Nice hotel. Too long to walk to room and pool wasn't the best. This is not the most ADA friendly hotel for someone with walking issues, but the gardens were very beautiful and it set right on the beach. You couldn't beat the value for the room. Lots of wildlife around to see thanks to the beautifully kept gardens.”

  • Bathroom tub didn't work, bad experience.

“First, the bathroom tub was not draining water. Instead of quickly switched me to a new room (it was 9 pm already), it tried to send a maintenance guy to try to fix the tub. After 30 min waiting, they agreed to switch room. Bath room toilet is noisy. The hotel room isolation is not good. I can easily hear noise on the hallway.”

“The first night room was small and it was a handicapped room. It was extremely disappointing. They also provided complimentary appetizers each day the remainder of our stay. Overall, the first night was very aggravating but the staff did a good job of trying to remedy the situation thereafter.”

  • I did not like being charged $30 per day to rent a beach chair.

“Overall, this was a great hotel to stay at. The rooms were nice and the staff was friendly. I did not like having to pay to rent a beach chair. This was supposed to be a resort, and we were paying the $12 per day resort fee per room on top of the room fees. Wireless internet was also available at a charge. It's just the principal.”

  • Family friendly, staff is friendly. Breakfast buffet was good.
  • Room cleanliness, $12 resort fee, everything was extra.

“The room cleanliness left much to be desired. Mold in the shower and during our 5-day stay, the sheets were changed only once. The room was never tidied, only the towels were picked up and replaced. Trash left out on the balcony stayed there until we left. Our room had a tiny balcony with a nice view of the parking lot. We requested an upgrade and waited over an hour for a non-smoking room with a view. The view was much better, the balcony a little larger, but the non-smoking room came complete with two ashtrays and a lovely aroma; although they insisted it was non-smoking. The $12 resort fee is ridiculous. The location is good and just a short walk to the beach. Definitely a family atmosphere. Staff is friendly, too, but I would not stay here again. Everything is extra. Not a great value for the price.”

  • The balcony door locked when we shut it and we were locked out !

“We went out to the balcony of our hotel room and closed the door behind us, not knowing that the balcony door locked automatically when it closes. So, we were locked out for 2 hours until we got someone who luckily walked by and informed the hotel staff. Then, after 30 minutes of banging like cops on TV, they finally got our hotel room door opened and unlocked us from the balcony. There was no warning sign or anything on the balcony door, etc. The rooms were not all that clean or comfortable. The bathroom tub had previous guests hair and other particles, we also killed a spider on the bed. However, the location was great! Beautiful public areas, landscaping and great beach location.”

  • It has a great location with beach access and a poolside bar.
  • The hotel charges a hidden fee that is mandatory for basic accommodations including pool and coffee service.

“The Crowne Plaza Resort in Hilton Head, SC is a beautiful facility with very nice rooms and views. The hotel staff is helpful and friendly. There is beach access and the hotel rents beach equipment including chairs, umbrellas, and towels. The hotel charges it's guests a hidden fee of $12/day ($24 total for one nights stay) for basic accommodations that one would expect from even a low-class Motel 6, such as coffee in the morning and access to a pool. It reminded me of the airlines charging for peanuts and a pillow on a 7 hour flight. The result of the extra fee is that I am unimpressed with the resort overall.”
