Marriott's Monarch at Sea Pines

Exceptional and friendly staff provide prompt service and assistance. The location in Sea Pines offers easy access to the beach, pools, and various activities, including biking, shopping, and dining.

This is a beautiful property set in the Nature Preserve on the North end of Hilton Head. When arriving for the first time you need to pay $9 to access the area, not a big deal but we aren't aware of that. Part of the preserve has beautiful walking trails and those are only a few minutes away from the resort. This report itself is located on a beautiful stretch of beach with easy access and there are nice pools facing the ocean. Our unit was beachfront and on the fifth floor and both the balcony off the living room and the balcony off the second bedroom had nice ocean views. We were in a newly renovated unit and although the decor and furniture were nice, there were issues: the appliances were old and when I opened the dishwasher for the first time, the rubber stripping had fallen out. My wife went to wash her hands and the towel rack fell off the wall. Most importantly, the elevator wasn't working! They were aologetic but a phone call in advance wanting of of this would have been nice. This occured in February, 2025 so if you have an upcoming stay you may want to phone and ask about it. Other than that this is a great resort.

We exchanged our Myrtle Beach MVC deeded week to the Monarch, first time in HH. The resort is the oldest in HH and seems to be in the midst of a needed renovation. Our room was not updated and is on the smaller size than what we are used to but ocean side views, 4th floor. It was only 2 of us so the supplies offered were more than we needed. Get past the outdated furniture, leaky toilet, blinking light on microwave and odd light switches, the resort is beach front and very quiet and relaxing. Hearing the ocean from our 4th floor unit was much appreciated. No pool bar on site, a quick walk next door to Coast restaurant and they have a full bar and bites in a nice setting that is beach front. Plenty of chairs, pool options and even in December a full schedule of activities. Other than Coast and Fraser’s on the golf course across the way, you need to drive out of development. The Sea Pines community is large and we have found all the roads inside and outside of Sea Pines to be very dark, little to no street lights and windy roads. We needed a chill, relaxing week and we were successful, even lucked out on 65-72 degree days in December!
