Stayed at this property 40+ years ago when it was a Marriott resort. Now the Sonesta, it has a great staff, wonderful pool area, rooms were excellent, and easy access to the beach. Public areas and rooms have been recently renovated and are clean and fresh. Bedding was comfortable. We’ll be back on visits to Hilton Head in the future.

This resort says it offers a shuttle but what they fail to tell you is that its on their time schedule so if you don't have a car you either will have to rent a bike, walk or Uber it. The food & drink prices are expensive for just average. I would suggest doing a hotel downtown cause you'll save money considering this resort doesn't offer anything more than a hotel. The adults only pool is located right by the kids pool & after 6 it becomes a family pool.

Excellent location. Rooms and spacious. We can’t wait to come back and see the newly updated pool and snack area.

Two things I could not understand: 1) why Sonesta has a room for accepting pets but have carpet on the floor instead of hardwwod or ceramic tile. We entered our room with a pee spot on carpet floor right at the entrance. We communicated that to reception but they found that to be normal. We didn't understand that. Well, we're not coming back. 2) How can Sonesta call itself "pet-friendly hotel"if they charged us $200.00 for pet fee for two nights (we found that to be ridiculous and they should not advertise themselves as pet friendly but only as "we accept pets" because the fee is 10 times higher at Sonesta than at Best Western.
