My family had a great stay at the Ocean Grande. The villa was very spacious with two bedrooms, a large living area, kitchen and dining area with a nice size outdoor deck. The beach view and interior garden area views were very nice. The property was in very good condition. We will be back.

The high pressure sales was obnoxious and downright rude.
We loved he cat colony that live near the south pool. We hope they are trapped and spayed and neutered though before their numbers explode. The report ignoring this issue is irresponsible

This place is seriously dated and it's a real shame as it has lots of potential but lacking any leadership with management and ownership. My experience at check-in was cold and painful and after an email a week ahead of time and 2 calls asking for a pack n play I finally had to go back to the front desk and speak to a supervisor. Then after 2 failed attempts with the ones that were delivered the manager had to come to the room and setup the third one. All in all this wasted 3hrs of my time. Further, due to something to do with their cable provider, not all channels were available and the wifi was awful. It barely worked. Overall it's not worth the monry you pay as the hygiene of the place is very poort. The gym felt as if it had not been cleaned in weeks. I mentioned this twice during my stay and it was never cleaned. House keeping comes every other day and it was a joke. The rooms should be cleaner. Again, a bunch of painful small things that doesn't make this stay worthwhile.

The only place you should stay in Hilton Head
Absolutely incredible experience at this property. Visited during a cold long weekend and was greeted with heated outdoor and indoor pulls, hot tubs, gorgeous beach front views and curated activities to do with my two daughters. Our room was phenomenal, though we had a garden view, it over looked the garden and very clear showed the beach and was by far one of the best beach front views I have seen in SC. Definitely worth the trip.

front desk was not amenable to requests. The front desk manager seemed to care but his employees were not wonderful or that helpful. My sister and I both had issues. The front desk manager was nice and helpful in the end, but it was just a cluster.
