HHI Adoration & Information 2009

[nickmom]

Use the grill near building 31....the view is nice and it was not crowded. We started grilling at 5:00 and there was noone waiting. I walked by one of the other grills while trying to track down my children and noticed several people waiting for the grill.

I agree with you about the price.....it would have cost us over $150 for the barbque....for that price I want a steak and a glass of wine.......it did look good though and they gave the people at the barbque american flag bandanas and leis.....but I just couldn't hand over that much money for burgers.

thanks for the grilling info. We will be in search of a grill on Tues also. We did do the BBQ last year tho. Can't wait to find out what room we will get. Work is getting tough....I'm ready to go.
Anyone have the weather report for next week?

I have reserved one of these for the week:

I love that it has a big comfy seat and a basket between the back two wheels.

the shrimp boil is 24.95 for adults and 9.95 for kids.

MIL and I went to Savannah today and ate at Ms. Wilkes..................it was by far the best meal of the trip .....we LOVED it. We had to stand in line about an hour but it was well worth the wait. We went on a trolley tour and had a great time!

We are going home tomorrow. Overall it has been a good trip. My teens are starting to get a little bored. I wish this resort was on the beach but it's been fun anyway.

A family member sent me this link it has some great early bird specials if you don't mind eating early.

The first few are timeshare blah blah blah. Just scroll past those for the real offers.

Greetings from the Big Dipper pool. It is a beautiful day so far. The resort looks great and cast members are wonderful!

 

[tinksfan]

Safe travel to all leaving this weekend. We'll be leaving Sunday at 8pm to arrive Monday am? See you next week in paradise

Last night we had yummy hot wings and fries at Wild Wings Cafe. OMG tonight we ate the Friday night buffet at Dye's Gullah Fixins some of the best comfort food we've ever had - need reservations for it. Tomorrow eating in the room we ate enough for all week tonight - just wish we could have stretched it out that long

 

[emma'smom]

What were the costs like for Dye's Gullah Fixins?

Hi everyone! This is my first visit to the Boards and my first question. I'm so excited. This is a great thread. We're new members (2008) and this will be our first trip to HH. We have two 2-bedrooms for extended family from July 18-23.
We're use to the rough surf of the Maryland Atlantic coast. Is there any surfing at HH or just boogy boarding?
Thanks.

Hi!
We have a small surfing community here because it matches the size of the waves.
Storms will bring good surfable sets but on average you would be better off kiteboarding. A skim board is fun and a bodyboard too.
There's more biking at the beach than surfing!

I know you'll enjoy it.

 

[KristiP]

What is Kiteboarding?

 

[Ladybal]

Ditto on that question. Also, if there is a good surfing day, are there any places to rent boards?
Thanks so much for your reply. This REALLY helps!

 

[chum]

This is kiteboarding.

This is not something you just pick up and do in one day but Hilton Head is a great spot to kiteboard.

Sunny Daze Surf Shop was our go to place for wave riding stuff but they just closed their doors.
There is a surf shop in Pineland Mill Shops but I don't know if they rent boards.

Greeting from the balcony of unit 2212. We made the two day trek from Texas safely and arrived last night at 11PM. It is absolutely beautiful here with light rain this morning. :yay

Just to let those of you who are on your way know they have three kids night out/teen nights out this week on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.

Monday is movie and pizza.

And Wednesday is an activity. i will update this post later.

 

[dallastxcpa]

hey Chum,

You didn't warn us about the Traffic circles!

Just kidding. We really love it down here in fact my husband walked in last night and before we were completely unpacked he had declared Disneys HHi his new favorite.

Uh Ohh! Somebody may have to get a second job for that add on.

 

[Laurabearz]

Yay!! So glad you love HHI!!! Good to hear your trip down went well


In our opinion... Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort IS Disney's Best Kept Secret

If you can... the other Kid's Night Out programs (not the movie), are they for 5-12 and what times are they offered. Thanks bunches!!

Have a blast!!!
