The Pool at The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa

"With an atmosphere that's "both relaxed and upscale”, this hotel right "on the beach" on Hilton Head's northern end offers “everything you need for a conference or vacation”, including "newly refinished” rooms that are “tastefully decorated” (many with a “direct ocean view”), plus oceanfront pools and “beautiful" grounds with easy access to the beach; the hotel attracts families and “holiday weekends are pretty hectic”, giving it a “Disney World feel”, but “courteous” and “helpful” staffers keep things under control"

"For a bit of pampering, the poolside cabanas rent for around $150 per day"
