Resort
The mid-island resort has an intentionally rustic theme and this property very much caters to kids. The rooms, grounds and location clearly accommodate a family crowd.
The rooms are spacious, clean and have kitchens and balconies. "South Carolina Lowcountry" is the theme and style of Disney's Hilton Head Island resort. The grounds are well-kept and modern, with amenities that include hammocks and grills.
Disney Hilton Head is top-heavy with activities for children, including nature programs, campfires, magic shows, “Kids Night Out”, crabbing, art, swimming pool & pool games, biking, kayaking, tennis and more things to do.
The Disney Hilton Head resort is on Hilton Head's Broad Creek, which is technically a land locked tidal marsh. A shuttle bus transports guests to the Disney Beach House in Palmetto Dunes, which is about a mile-and-a-half away. There guests enjoy a private swimming pool with bathrooms and a snack shop right on the Atlantic Ocean.
Dining
The resort does not have a full-service restaurant, but there are two spots to eat:
Signals and Tide Me Over both serve American Casual themed lunch; however, at the main resort Tide Me Over also serves breakfast.
