Island Links Resort

We stayed here for a week in a 2 bedroom condo with our 2 year old daughter. This place is great! There was a daily list of events going on, including daily morning crafts for little kids (best approx ages 2 – 10). The most amazing part of this resort is the pool. IT IS AWESOME! Our daughter could have played there the whole week straight. You almost don’t need to make any plans off the resort property (except for food). We rented bikes and the beach (a really nice one!) is 1 mile away on bike paths the entire way! You never have to bike on the rode, which is important for people traveling with young kids. We’ll definitely be staying here again.

GREAT STAY!!! Super friendly and helpful staff, very detailed about how to get around the island and different attractions! My unit was AMAZING more than enough space and very clean. Over looking the golf course and very quite resort. Also the location of the resort is perfect, everything you could possibly need is no more than 10 minutes away!!!

Nice, clean, comfortable, well stocked vacation homes. Pool parties on Mondays, weather permitting, with free food and drinks.

This resort is phenomenal. I stayed in a spacious three bedroom unit with large Jacuzzi, walk-​in shower and deck on the second level. Nice living room area flat screen TVs and all of the amenities. Very clean and updated look. Nice furniture granite countertops, and 2 large bathrooms.

We are owners here, and the resort is just ok. Upon arrival, our unit was dirty and the shower curtain has a cigarette stain on it. Interesting for a non smoking place. Other than that the pool is nice and the staff tries hard for their guests!

I recently spent a week at Hilton Head Island (HHI) for a three-​family reunion. I chose this resort because they featured three bedroom units. The resort was showing age, but our unit was one of the latter, newer units. Our unit was very spacious, with three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a full sized/​equiped kitchen, and an open area with a dining table (with seating for eight) and a sofa (convertible) set with comfortable seating for seven. The unit was large enough to be comfortable for nine people in our case. This resort was located on the eastern part of the island called Royal Plantation. On-​site amenities included: multi-​level swimming pools with kiddie areas, exercise facility, three golf courses, tennis courts, and shuttle service to the beach nearby. Beaches on the island were not inviting in general, however. Shopping opportunities were aplenty, and biking is a great way to exercise and get around the area. I found Hilton Head Island to be a nice way to spend a leisurely, slow-​paced vacation, and this resort was a nice place to spend a week with one’s loved ones.
P. S.: One odd characteristic of HHI is that all the stores (and their signages) have to conform to an island-​wide look and feel. So, all the stores were recessed back from the road (almost hidden at times), and they all looked similar to one another. It was interesting at first, but it sort of got old as the week wore on: too homogenous for my taste…

ONE OF THE BEST RESORTS on the island in my opinion.
We’ve been vacationing on Hilton Head Island for the last 5 years and Island Links is most often where we spend our week. The units are spacious and come complete with full kitchens stocked with all utensils, cookware and dishware. In-​unit washer and dryer help us pack lightly and each bedroom has it’s own tv. I don’t have to tell parents how important that is, but they also have great flat screens in the Family Room too with DVD players and a stereo. Décor is updated every 5 to 7 years (so it will never feel outdated), the beds are comfy and both 2 & 3 bedroom units have two roomy bathrooms.
One of the best amenities are the pools!!! Island Links by Coral Resorts has both a zero entry pool with kids splash pond and a heated pool for winter bunnies like us. There is also a hot tub (another useful feature in the winter). This year we had family spread out over several units & buildings, but we were arranged to be within a short walking distance of each other. It was a truly special Christmas on the beach. Weather could not have been more perfect!!! Most every day was over 60 degrees and several were in the high 70’s which made for a nice day riding bikes along the beach.
Hilton Head is divided into «plantations» and Island Links is located in Port Royal. If you are a GOLFER, then vacationing here will be a dream. My brother-​in-​law enjoyed a day with his beloved golf clubs. There are tons of public and private courses all over the island in nearby in Bluffton & Beaufort. They also offer you cash and other perks to view a 90-​minute presentation of the Resort. This year we received $ 130 + a round of golf each day for up to 4 people and a Hilton Head version of Monopoly. Some won’t bother, but I personally think it’s crazy not to go.
One warning would be to those who rent the three bedroom units. Two of the bedrooms (Master and smallest bedroom) are connected via french doors that can be opened to make it one large suite (see pics). This works great for us parents with small children, but might not give couples sharing a unit with other couples the privacy a totally separate third bedroom would give.
Be sure to check out the wine and cheese party!!!

Great timeshare resort, especially for families. All units are large and well equipped. Opt for the larger older units (sleeps 12) for a unit closet to the kiddie area of the pool and the large gas powered grill area.
The pool area is great for kids of all ages with a motion activated play fountain, falling water mushrooms and large fountain in the middle. One section of the pool even has a large umbrella over it and remains shaded in the heat of the day. Lots of seating and I was able to find a spot under the umbrellas each day.
Island Links is a 10 minute bike ride to the beach, or minutes by car. Free shuttles to and from the beach each day. But we opted for the bikes.
Since this is a timeshare, be prepared for the invites to their sales pitch. You can either accept and get some free stuff or turn them down.
We’ve stayed here 4 times and had a great experience each time.

Nice and clean suites, beautiful pool, decent parking, easy shuttle to the beach, laundry in suite, full kitchen, many grills to use, bike rental and paths everywhere.
