The award-winning Hilton Oceanfront Resort Hilton Head Island is located mid-island in the exclusive resort community of Palmetto Dunes. Our newly redesigned studio suites are the largest standard rooms on the island, averaging one-and-a-half times the size of a typical hotel guestroom. A beachfront resort, we are conveniently located just 45 minutes from Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV) and only five minutes from Hilton Head Regional Airport (HHH).
While away the hours on our private-access, white-sand beach; get attuned to nature while boating or kayaking on our peaceful lagoons and inland waterways; soak away your cares in our two oversized swimming pools (one exclusively for adults) and Jacuzzis; and unwind in our luxurious new Health Club & Spa. With three championship golf courses on property and the 25-court Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center just steps from our front door, the stunning array of outdoor activities is virtually endless.
The Hilton Oceanfront Resort caters to families and golf enthusiasts as well as executive travelers. We feature a myriad of activities and choices for our vacationing guests, from the sun-seekers to the thrill seekers. In addition, the resort offers a relaxing yet professional atmosphere in which to conduct meetings, conferences and seminars, surrounded by all the amenities you would expect from this legendary South Carolina Lowcountry paradise.

Flowering gardens and hickory, live oak, and indigenous palmetto-palm trees fill these areas, with signs identifying various flora. Lights after dark create a romantic atmosphere for evening strolling. A health spa offers massage and facials and includes a fitness center with cardio machines, a Universal gym, and free weights. From Memorial Day through Labor Day, supervised activities are provided in an air-conditioned wooden pavilion and outdoors for children ages 4-12 (surcharges).

| My wife and I have stayed at the Hilton several times now, and I have enjoyed each stay immensely. We had previously opted for an oceanfront room, but settled this time for a courtyard view. The view was actually quite nice; the room was directly facing one of the pools. All requested service was excellent and the staff were very courteous.

| We loved this hotel. The grounds are absolutely beautiful. The steel drum band by the pool made it feel like a cruise! We usually go someplace new each time we travel, but would love to return to the Hilton again. Can't say enough good about it. Hilton Head Island has wonderful bike trails that you can safely follow all over the island.

| The staff was most pleasant, and the condition of the room was what we expected for a four star hotel. The few items we needed replaced were done so expeditiously and without a great debate.
