The hotel offers well-designed and spacious rooms with luxurious comfortable beds just a short walk from the main hotel. The service is exceptional, going above and beyond to make the stay memorable, while the location provides a vast array of amenities and activities. The dining experience is top-notch, particularly the morning offerings at Octagon.
I couldn't have asked for a better experience at the hotel. The rooms were pristine, spacious, and well-designed, with private screened porches right on the water, offering relief from the July heat with ceiling fans. The service was exceptional, from the courteous staff at every interaction to the genuinely friendly and helpful personnel. The location was beyond beautiful, with lush greenery, well-maintained facilities, and a vast array of amenities providing a refreshing and restorative stay. While the dining experience was satisfactory, the overall quality of the establishment made it a fantastic choice.
I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The location is simply stunning, with a dreamlike setting along the May River, offering a wide range of amenities and activities. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, though a bit of a walk from the main hotel. The service was exceptional, especially from Deidre, who went above and beyond to ensure a delightful stay. The dining experience was delicious, with a variety of dishes to choose from. Despite a few minor drawbacks, this hotel is a true gem for a relaxing getaway.
The hotel is set in a dreamlike location along the May River, offering clean, spacious rooms with plush bedding and great views. The service is highly attentive and courteous, with thoughtful touches like welcome gifts. However, the dining experience could be inconsistent at times. The facilities are well-maintained and the location is perfect for various events and exploring the scenic surroundings.
My stay at the hotel was truly exceptional. The rooms, overlooking the water and a short walk from the main hotel, were well-appointed and beautiful. The assistance provided by Brittany and Anthony with car and luggage drop-off made the experience even more delightful. The shuttle service every 10 minutes was convenient. The small village charm added to the top-notch service that was provided, with apologies for minor inconveniences like a bug sighting. The vast and beautiful location by the May River in Palmetto Bluff offered a range of amenities and activities, though some aspects felt out of place with the peaceful setting. Dining at the Octagon was a delightful experience, with a variety of delicious offerings each morning.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was stunning, right by the beautiful lagoon with a perfect view over the adult pool area. The S'mores cart was a delightful touch. However, there were some issues with poor communication among the staff from the front desk to the valet and shuttle drivers.
