Despite the name, the Okatie Hilton Head Hotel is on neither Hilton Head Island nor in Bluffton proper: its address is Okatie, the area just west of Bluffton along US 278. It sits on Okatie Center Boulevard North in the same cluster of hotels as the Hampton Inn and Candlewood Suites, near Sun City Hilton Head, and it is not a Hilton-brand hotel.

The building was the Fairfield Inn & Suites Hilton Head Island Bluffton; it now runs independently under its current name. If you are looking for that Fairfield, this is the same address. For the town next door, see our Bluffton guide.

What guests say

The hot breakfast, with bagels, eggs and turkey and vegan sausage, and the kind, helpful front-desk staff get the praise. The complaints are about the building: guests describe a poorly maintained property and musty rooms, with road noise, thin walls and worn linens also mentioned.

Rooms at the Okatie Hilton Head Hotel

The hotel has 64 rooms over three floors. Most have two queen beds or one king; there are also king rooms with a jetted tub, king suites with a sofa, a mini-fridge and a microwave, and a king kitchenette with a stove, a sink, a microwave and a full-size refrigerator, which suits longer stays. Accessible rooms include ones with a roll-in shower. Every room has a desk, a coffee maker, a flat-screen TV and free Wi-Fi.

Breakfast, Pool and Fitness Room

Breakfast is included, parking is free, and the hotel has an outdoor pool, a fitness room and a business corner with computers and a printer. Housekeeping on multi-night stays is by request.

Okatie Hilton Head Hotel Reviews

The reviews here are mixed. Guests like the friendly front-desk staff and the hot breakfast, and several found it a fair base for a weekend near the island. The complaints are about the building: dated, musty rooms and old carpet, road noise and thin walls, worn towels and linens, weak Wi-Fi, and more than one report of insects. Look at recent reviews before you book.

Where the Hotel Is

The hotel is at 105 Okatie Center Boulevard North, off US 278 (Fording Island Road) at the Sun City end of the corridor. Old Town Bluffton and the Hilton Head bridges are both east along US 278. For other places to stay, see our round-up of hotels in Bluffton, or Hilton Head hotels for the island.
