Marriott's Barony Beach Club

The grounds and beach are very nice but I had a terrible experience here. The air in some of the buildings is VERY moldy. I became allergic to mold after staying in a moldy condo several years ago. I made it clear before arriving that I am allergic to mold. Upon check-in, I reminded them of this but the room they assigned had a VERY strong mold smell- it was coming from the vents, which means it is in the HVAC for that entire building. My husband, who is not sensitive, smelled it too. Without touching anything in the room, we went back to the front desk to request another room. The front desk manager, Alan, gave me a very hard time, saying that they had no mold, no one else has complained, and he had given us the best room available. I asked if I could see another room before switching and he refused. I was happy to accompany a manager or housekeeping- he refused. He said I could book a different room without smelling it. Since he said there was no mold, and I clearly know there was, I didn’t want to get myself into a worse situation, so we kept the same room. He treated me like I was stupid and unreasonable. I tried to air out the room, but it was so humid and hot it was necessary to keep the AC on and windows shut. At 4 am, I woke up having enough difficulty breathing that I slept the remainder of the night outside on the cement floor of the balcony. The next morning, Alan said they could possibly switch my room after an 11am meeting. So we had to wait around, and in the meantime I visited a nearby hotel, where they gladly let me smell the room I would book, and it was not moldy. After telling Alan this, he had the housekeeping manager meet me at my room- which I was staying out of at this point- and she let me smell the air in the unit next door (also moldy, as I would expect, being in the same building.) She then took me to another building and that room was much better and tolerable mold-wise. She was helpful and respectful, but I spent a miserable night, compromised my health, wasted a half-day of my vacation, and endured being marginalized before we got to that point.

Villas are very family friendly. Lots of open, visible shelves for storage. Large bedrooms with lots of space. Very comfortable to sleep 8 in 2 bedroom villa option. Ocean is just steps away. Lots of activities & amenities. Hot tubs were not hot at all! Lots of noise from upstairs guests. Overall, very nice stay!

This is our second time at Barony and we loved it just as much as the first! The location in the Port Royal area is amazing! There are plenty of bike paths and walking paths. You can pick up your groceries at Walmart or Kroger just a few miles down the road. Golf is right at your finger tips and the resort is right on the beach. The splash pad; 4 pools; and water slide make for hours of fun for the kiddos. And we love the courtyard with cornhole; ping pong; and shuffleboard. The Marriott resorts are by far the best with activities! Joey made bingo, trivia, and s’mores night a blast. David was hilarious with bingo, 80s music trivia (that’s on my playlist too 😂😂); and peanuts and coke on the porch. And Martha did an incredible job at weekend water aerobics. This has become our favorite resort in HHI and we can’t wait to be back next year (or hopefully even sooner!). Thank you for the memories once again!

The room was great and spacious and appear to have been newly refurbished. There was no kettle so we have to make tea by boiling a pan, not ideal but not a deal breaker either. The pools looked great and the kids area had a slide. This hotel is split in 2 , with a beach side and a garden side. The garden side is a 10 min walk to the beach, and is totally separate which isn’t great. There didn’t seem to be anywhere you could walk to so a car is a must if you want to go to different restaurants

My husband and I just returned from a week on Hilton Head Island! The Marriott Barony Beach Club is our favorite hotel! The setting beach front was perfect! The villa was updated, modern with a beachy vibe. The property included beautiful landscaping with flowers and mature trees. There were many areas for gathering. There were weekly activities to particpate such as beach yoga, low country boil dinner, campfire s'mores, turtles and tequila and so much more! The pools were amazing. The staff was responsive, professional and friendly. This hotel surpassed our expectations. We are looking forward to the next time we can be guests at this incredible hotel! I highly recommend the Marriott Barony Beach Club in Hilton Head!

We arrived early, check in is 4:00 PM and pout 10:00 AM, you pay one and get 75%. We are able to use the hotel facilities, and the receptionist told us that will call us soon. After asked several times we decide to show up 3:50 PM and they give us a room, I expected a more proactive action.. we have two young kids with us. The room was very good, cleaning is available at a fee. The pool restaurant is ok for a quick lunch, not too many options. The hotel is great for family fun and at a short drive form Hilton Head downtown.

We stayed for 2 days in the building next to the pool and the units at this property are very nice, totally renovated and spotless. We had 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, a spacious living room and kitchen. Loved the beachfront location with the beach just a short walk away. The pool is pretty basic - nice enough but not very large or particularly special. There is only a poolside bar on property. You also have to pay for beach chairs on the beach if you didn't bring them. If you want to eat at a restaurant for breakfast or dinner, you need to go next door to the Westin. With all that being said, we were very happy with our stay... no complaints and would definitely return. In fact, we wish we'd stayed longer.

This was our first visit here and it was a lovely, low-key, quiet resort on the beach. However the 6 buildings are spread out with 2 oceanfront, 2 courtyard and 2 garden view (about a 10-15 minute walk to the beach). We were fortunate to get a courtyard unit (no ocean front). There are 3 pools and an indoor pool. A full service Namaste Spa that we found overpriced at $155 for a 50 minute massage so we skipped it. There were activities throughout the day but didn't find much for a 3 year old to do. WE enjoyed the daily aqua aerobics. There is plenty of undercover parking. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. This 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit consisted of a king bed in the master suite, and 2 queen beds in the 2nd bedroom with a full bathroom that had a tub (to help bathe children). The master bath had a nice large walk-in shower. There is a stackable washer and dryer in the unit as well as a full kitchen and dining area and living room. The balcony was large and quiet.

Great venue. Lots of local activities. Early May is a great time to visit HH. The resort has beach access and a spa. There is a restaurant on the property. The units are specious with two bedrooms, a full kitchen, and an outdoor deck with a view.
