    This beautiful property is in the heart of everything going on in Hilton Head. A walk away from The Bank and other restaurants on the way to Coligny Beach. A short bike ride away to Sea Pines and all Harbor Town has to offer. And steps away from an awesome pool scene and hot tub.

    We love Waterside Resort and Hilton Head Island!! Our family has been going there for the past 12 years and our kids, now 21 and 17 still only want to keep going there for vacation! The Island itself is so peaceful and there are a ton of things to do if you like to get some activities in during your vacation. The beach is only a 10 minute walk or you can call up the free shuttle (they work for tips) to and from the beach if you’d like. There are nice walking paths around the resort and a lagoon to watch the turtles and gators just behind one of the buildings. 2 big pools, 1 heated and the other with a hot tub next to it and then also has a kiddie pool if needed for your young ones to play in. Poolside grills make it easy to get ready for dinner and not have to fight with your kids to leave the pool right away! Nearby shops and grocery stores are only a quick 7 minute walk without having to drive, along with tons of restaurants within walking distance or you can certainly drive to a ton more! Golf packages are available through the resort and if you are a golf enthusiast, this week is for you because the PGA’s RBG Heritage at Harbour Town tournament is a great event to watch! You will not be disappointed! Look at reviews for yourself and you will see!

    Waterside Resort is in the Coligny Circle area, with lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance. Also a few blocks from the ocean/beaches. Many golf locations nearby as well. If you are a jazz lover, there is a top-100 jazz club, The Jazz Corner, in Wexford Plaza. Always lots to do on the island. A bikers paradise.

    We have come here almost every year since it was built! The excellent location close to the beach, grocery stores, theater, shops, and restaurants is one of several great features. The staff are always friendly and helpful, and the resort is always maintained to high standards, including the beautifully kept natural habitat. With 3 pools, a variety of activity options, grilling areas, access to golf and tennis, and more there is plenty to keep you occupied. There are also food trucks on site several days/week as an added convenience. The unit itself is very spacious with an open floor concept, so you never feel crowded and have plenty of room to gather comfortably. If you have someone with mobility issues, this unit accommodates well with handicap access, including to bathroom and shower. The value of this unit for a family vacation at HHI can't be beat!

    What a wonderful resort with fun activities for everyone in the family! With the pool and beach just steps away and bike rentals available to explore the Hilton Head area, it really is a perfect and easy vacation. The units are comfortable and spacious and work nicely for a week long stay. Highly recommend Waterside by Spinnaker!

    Always thoroughly enjoy my stay and use of my ownershil at Waterside resort. The location is fabulous for walking and riding a bike to music, beach, and restraints. Location directly across the street from the new Celebration park. Weekend before Thanksgiving is the lantern parade on the beach which is a must see for adults and children alike. So much fun.

    You can spend weeks 7 and 8 at Hilton Head's finest resort in style. Waterside by Spinnaker has everything you need for the perfect winter vacation. Spacious rooms, amenities too numerous to list and centrally located in America's favorite golf, food and water sports destination. Close to Savannah, Charleston, Kiawah Island and Myrtle Beach. Waterside is family friendly, or a couples dream getaway.

    We have been coming to Waterside by Spinnaker for almost 30 years. Both of my kids, who are in their 20s, have such fond memories of staying there, swimming in the pool, walking to the beach and shopping at the local Piggly Wiggly! Bike rentals are nearby and are a great way to explore the surrounding area. The activities around the pool are fun, and there are lots of shopping and dining options within walking distance. Nothing beats being at the beach during the 4th of July!!

    This resort is in the heart of the Island with convenient access to the nearby large beach (easy walking distance) and Coligny Plaza. Several grocery stores, great restaurants, and a vintage movie theater are less than a mile away. Waterside provides all of the in-villa amenities needed to provide you with a comfortable, relaxing vacation.

    This resort is a perfect location to walk or bike to everything you need. Short walk to beach, shopping, restaurants, and the new beer garden hangout, The Bank. Our villa is right across from the main pool and clubhouse. Daily activities onsite and golf nearby. Friendly staff and always clean. I highly recommend a stay at Waterside!
