We have been visiting HHI for 21 years...it really IS our home away from home, though our
DVC home resorts are WL and SSR. My father was one of the project managers for the Disney HHI resort, so it has a special place in our hearts!
Restaurant recs for HHI: Charlies' Crab, Charlies (French -different than crab), Le Bistro, Saltgrass, Signe's, Crazy Crab (2 locations), Frankie Bones, Captain Woody's, Sea Shack, Kenny B's, Giuseppe's Pizza, Pepper's Porch (Bluffton), Salty Dog Cafe, Old Oyster Factory, Old Fort Pub...
Visit Shelter Cove on Tuesday's for Shannon Tanner show, and Harbortown on Friday's for Greg Russell show...great for kids!
For groceries, there are several grocery stores on the island, including "The Pig" (Piggly Wiggly), Publix, Bi-Lo, Fresh Market... Off island (Bluffton) there is a Super
Walmart, Target, etc...
"The Sandbox" is a very cute "hands on" children's museum off Pope Ave. "Island Playground" is another indoor playground with the big blow-up jumpie things for kids, located just across bridge, off-island, on left, across from Moss Creek. These are great for rainy days.
