If your looking for a relaxing and fun getaway, the Marriott Grande Ocean in Hilton Head, South Carolina is a great place to stay. This resort has all the amenities, including a spa and gym, a bar, a marketplace, several pools, and its all seconds away from the beach. This family oriented resort even has a kids zone where they... More

Had a great time at this resort. It was very clean, nicely decorated, and the staff were very pleasent and helpful with any questions or issues! We went to the Jazz Club and had a great time!! We drove down to Savannah Georgia (about 35-40 mins) and took the city Segway Tour. It was a lot of fun!! I recommend... More

Pleasantly surprised by improvements since last visit. We are owners at Grande Ocean but had not been back for 7 years. Last time we stayed there were huge mold spots on the mattresses (they had to actually switch out mattresses as it was that bad), mold on lamp shades, torn and wet carpets, broken appliances just to name a few...

To start, checkin was a breeze with very friendly rep. No timeshare mention during the entire stay. Nice underground parking. The rooms were beautiful, large and clean. Nice balcony overlooking one of the pools. New HDTV with HD channels. It was very uncrowded and quiet. Supposedly there was major renovations going on but we did not see or hear any... More

Our family of six found this vacation exchange on interval. We had never been to Hilton head before so we were looking forward to seeing why all our friends rave about the area. From check in to check out the staff was helpful and very courteous. Our rooms were clean and while a little dated, they were very efficient and... More

The Marriott Grand Ocean was a large resort, with a very good location because you could walk right out onto the beach. The condo was well appointed with nice furnishings however the rooms were not cleaned properly. There were dark smudges of hands on both sides of the bathroom door and the windows and patio doors needed to be properly... More

This was our first time in Hilton Head. When we said we were there to Celebrate our Parents' 50th Anniversary they sent up a beautiful basket. Our 2Bedroom 2Bath Room was on the 2nd Floor Facing the Pools and Ocean. Everything was very clean and well kept. Everyone was friendly. We went the week of Christmas and the weather was... More

We had two villas, on the fifth floor of Laughing Gull. Great ocean views. Enjoyed the hot tubs, putting greens and the swings by the ocean. The weather was great for December. We used the sea pines pass to and enjoyed Harbour town. More

Simply our favorite place to go in Hilton Head is Marriott's Grande Ocean. Frankly it is just a cut above Surfwatch which we also enjoy very much but the two advantages Grande Ocean has are that it provides Sea Pines access and its villas have whirlpool tubs instead of the showers provided at Surfwatch. Our rooms face the oceanfront directly... More

We spent one week at the Marriott's Grande Ocean the first week of December. This is a great resort. We had a two bedroom, two bath unit ocean front on first floor. The parking is on the ground floor. Elevators and luggage carts available. The staff was outstanding. Lots of activities if interested. Beach walk on Wednesday with wildlife volunteer... More
