I'm a Marriott owner in Aruba and chose to exchange to the Surf Watch in Hilton Head. It's a newly opened resort; we had just taken a trip to Mexico for thanksgiving, so going to Aruba was out; we decided Hilton Head wasn't too far and we chose to drive rather than fly. It was about 17 hours each way... more

Surfwatch is the best resort for families! We have a 6 and a 10 year old and our kids loved it. The resort had so many activities for the kids. My daughter loved the dressup tea party and all the crafts they had set up. I had a great time meeting all the families that were around the pool. Ocean... more

Just returned from our second visit to this property. My parents own in Floriday and this is the second year that she exchanged to Surf Watch. Our family of 10 (6 adults, 4 kids) comfortably enjoyed a 3 bedroom/3 bath unit. We took advantage of the large kitchen to prepare meals to avoid taking such a large party to a... more

We spent a week at the Marriott Surf Watch last month and absolutely fell in love with the property. We are from the West and this was our first time staying on Hilton Head. Our 3 bedroom unit was new and nicely decorated. The grounds at the Surf Watch are amazing. The hotel itself is set back from the ocean... more

We had a great time. There were plenty of activities available at (or through) the resort, but we chose to take it easy - play a few rounds of golf, sit at the pool, and walk the beach. Rooms were spacious, mondern, and clean. We've alreday made reservations for same time next year. more

Our family just got back from our surfwatch vacation. Our two and four year olds enjoyed the property so much, they actually started crying as we were leaving. We traded our timeshare week at the Sheraton Vistana in Orlando to stay here in September. They put us in the 5300 building which is the furthest from the ocean. It would... more

We recently returned from a week long vacation at surfwatch. We have stayed at two other Marriott Vacation Villas so we have something to compare it to. The resort is beautiful; however, we were in the villas that were the greatest distance from the beach. They do offer golf carts for your "little" hike to beach and beach pool. This... more

This was our second year at Surf Watch and it is quickly becoming a favorite. Besides the pools and great beach, Surf Watch offers a great naturalist environment...that is a welcome twist to your typical beach resort. Kids loved the numerous activities offered, beach, pools and all the bike trails. Resort is VERY family focused. Rooms are extremely spacious (3... more

My family and I just came back from a long weekend at this resort. From the few posted reviews, we weren't really sure what to expect. Suprisingly, the resort exceeded all of our expectations! As we were not time share owners, we booked the hotel through their website and received a AAA discount. The room was spacious, elegant, and well... more
