Recommendations for that Saturday Night Stay at HH

[David in Manassas]

So like many others, we will be doing the Sunday to Friday night thing at DVC HH. Since we will drive down on Saturday, any recommendations for the Saturday night stay. We were thinking about the Residence Inn on the Island..anyone ever stay there?

Note: Last year we stayed off the Island at a Fairfield Inn and the beds were just too tiny!

There's a Fairfield Inn near DVC and a Hampton Inn just off the Island. Obviously there are many other hotels. I'd try for Cash at DVC as well.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't

I tried Priceline a couple of times. I was able to get the Marriot Beach Club for $80 for Saturday.

Priceline can take a bit of time. But, we wound up with a great place.

In HH now - place never looked better.

We saw a Gator in the creek across from the kayaks!

We've done the cash night at HH and have yet to have a problem getting a reservation.

Lots of people do not stay on points Saturday night (at 99 per night no wonder ).

I would also recommend trying to get a cash night at HH. While it may not be the least expensive option, you at least know what you're getting and don't have to pack up and move on Sunday!!

Two months ago I was able to add on an additional night to our Hilton Head stay in a Grand Villa no less! We're going Thanksgiving week and this would be the Saturday before the holiday. With the member discount, the Grand Villa is about $250. If we would have wanted a 1 or 2 bedroom, the cash price would have been about half that with the discount. Looking into a cash night for your Saturday night stay might be a good option that way you wouldn't have to pack up and move the next day.

The cash price during the summer months is somewhat higher than that. However, I still think it's worth it to not have to move. (Not to mention that I love having an extra night at the resort!!)

Thanks for all the replies, but I think the Cash DVC discount option is just 2 much for us. If I am not mistaken, it's 450 a night for a 2 bedroom in the summer with the discount that would be $337 I believe...I was able to book the Residence Inn on the Island for the 5 of us for $105.00 so I guess that is where we will be staying on 7/10!
