Room was clean. Breakfast was weak. Elevator was broken part of the time and the pool was not great

I was super pleased with our stay! We got a very reasonable price on our stay so I was a little nervous to see the place and I was so very happy we chose to stay here! The staff was great, the hotel was clean, and the location couldn’t have been better! The only complaint we had was the elevator took forever and was not air conditioned so we used the steps which the stairwells are also not air conditioned. They had maintenance people painting rooms and doors keeping the place looking nice so they definitely care about the look and they guests so hopefully they can help this in the near future… I looked at a crazy about of places before we booked and I read reviews on every single one so I hope to help someone else with reassurance that this is a great place to stay! 5 stars!

The Palms Oceanfront at Isle of Palms was a perfect place for catching that small town beach vibe in what used to be one of the several small beach areas mainly for SC locals. The Palms keeps that nostalgic feel but keeps current with nice clean rooms and a super nice staff. Like many things, price is pivot point for setting expectations and being happy. So, in the off-season, I got a room price that would easily match any standard hotel, plus it came with complimentary breakfast and a balcony with two nice white wood, high-top chairs and table serving a beach and ocean view. So, a great value. And, as stated, the rooms, along with white balcony furniture, were clean. So, that is my litmus test for comfort and waives my criticism even if a hotel is more dated. It was off-season, so noise was low and parking at the hotel and on the street were easy. And, everything was a minute walk. Like anything, manage your expectations. If you are looking for resort gated-entry, multiple expansive swim pools, no next-door bar or restaurant buzz, and the sand left far away on the beach, etc., go up the road for 2-5x more per night. And, often I'll do that. But, on this stay, I wanted a local, right on the beach, laid-back, surf, feel in a clean, friendly accommodation. The Palms Oceanfront was perfect. Thanks!

We had a wonderful time at The Palms we stayed in an oceanfront room perfect view. We left our slider open at night to be lulled to sleep by the oceans’ waves and woke each morning to a spectacular sunrise. Rent the lounge-chairs and umbrella so worth it lovely beach days sunning and reading or walking the sand searching for shells taking in the beautiful area. Plenty of restaurants and music close by many spots within walking distance. The continental breakfast was good for a quick bite to eat too!

This was one of the most disappointing hotel stays I’ve ever had. For the amount charged, The Palms Oceanfront Hotel was completely underwhelming. The first room was disgusting the sheets had visible urine stains. After requesting a move, the second room wasn’t much better: towels with holes, peeling floors, and overall poor upkeep. To make matters worse, there’s no on-site parking guests are forced to park down the street. For a hotel charging premium rates, this level of cleanliness and maintenance is unacceptable. I would not recommend staying here.

It is a very basic room. One small round table with two chairs for eating or working I suppose. A king size bed with a way too soft mattress for me. Thing feels like sponge. I have fear what my back will feel like in the morning. I'm already considering checking out and heading to a Hampton or other Hilton product where I know the mattress will at least work for me. I'm 6'3" and about 245 pounds. I'm sure back in the day anything this close to the beach was probably a great place to stay. Normally anything close to the beach I'd enjoy. There's nothing fancy or upscale or even mid-scale about this place.

Nice sized room and clean! Had a nice little picnic area under the hotel which was our favorite part! Good breakfast fresh coffee! A nice live view of the beach inside the lobby! We will absolutely stay again!

This is a nice hotel. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. They also have a nice breakfast buffet. I gave this hotel a 2 because of parking and the elevator. This is a three story hotel and only approx 15 parking spaces. Overflow is across the street. It is dark with rocks. Very hard to see. The elevator is down more than it is up. If you are handicapped in any way rethink this hotel. The elevator is down at least 15 mins each time several times a day.
