Water, Sand and Sun:<\/strong><\/p>\nThere are two heated pools, the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper (try to guess which one is the kiddie pool). The Big Dipper has a water slide that our son absolutely loved. We would put it on par with the water slides you would have at a moderate resort (in Disney World).<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

While the resort is not located directly on the beach, Disney does have its own beach house for the exclusive use of their DVC resort guests! The beach house is about 1 mile away from the resort. It is walk-able, but there is a convenient shuttle that runs between the resort and the beach house. There is limited parking if you wish to drive. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
While at the beach house, guests can enjoy a private pool and some tabletop games. In the Clubhouse, there is a TV, fireplace, lounge furniture, and game tables. From the beach house you can take a quick walk out the back gate and enjoy a day in the Atlantic Ocean! Beach chairs and umbrellas are available to rent. If you get hungry, have a bite to eat at Signals.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"Boardwalk](\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Boardwalk-to-beach-223x400.jpg\")

The Broad Creek Mercantile is your stop for Disney stuff! There is a surprisingly large selection of Disney and DVC merchandise (don\u2019t forget your 10% discount, DVC members!). The shop also has snacks and some of the essentials you may need\u2026 like\u00a0Mickey Bars!<\/span><\/p>\n![\"Mickey](\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Mickey-Bars-219x400.jpg\")

DVDs can be rented here at no charge! Our son loved being able to look through the selections and sign it out to the room by himself. They allowed us to take out three at a time.<\/span><\/p>\nDining:<\/strong><\/p>\nDining was somewhat limited at DVC Hilton Head. At the resort itself is the quick service window Tide Me Over. They served breakfast (yes, they have Mickey waffles!), lunch and dinner, but do not stay open very late. The menu is mostly sandwiches for lunch and dinner. (Editor’s note: They mean it when they say they don’t stay open late. I visited in the summer and the window was closed by 5:00 p.m.)
\n<\/span><\/p>\nOver at the beach house you will find another quick service restaurant called Signals. The menu here is also limited to sandwiches and some fried foods. Both the restaurants were decent options, but if you are planning an extended stay you will likely grow tired of them rather quickly.
\n<\/span><\/p>\nOther options include the many restaurants located throughout Hilton Head Island (remember to ask the front desk about discounts). If you want to take advantage of your kitchen, \u00a0local grocery stores are a short car ride away.<\/span><\/p>\nOff Season vs Busy Season:<\/strong><\/p>\nLike any vacation destination, you have a lot to think about when you plan your trip. If you go during the peak vacation times (spring break and summer), you will spend a premium in DVC points or cash. Of course your benefits are longer days and great beach weather. If you go during off peak times (during the school year and winter months), you will get a great rate, but won\u2019t be able to take full advantage of what the resort has to offer. Our advice is to not be scared off by the off peak times. While the weather may not be calling you to the beach, there is still so much to do and have fun with. You may even enjoy having all that time you would be spending at the beach to do everything else the resort has to offer with your family.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"DVC](\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DVC-Signs-218x400.jpg\")

Overall Impressions:<\/strong><\/p>\nThis trip to DVC Hilton Head was our first trip, but it will not be our last! If you are a Disney Resort fan, this has everything that you love about staying on Disney property (with out the parks). You will love recognizing the Disney touches. However, you do not need to be Disney Resort veterans to enjoy and appreciate the resort. If you are looking for a beach vacation, you can rest assured that Disney will take care of you. If you are DVC members, we highly recommend DVC Hilton Head as a great way to spend a weekend using up any of your left over points.<\/span><\/p>\n![\"Family](\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Family-Pic-400x241.jpg\")
