Spacious for large families
This property was able to accommodate my family of five comfortably. We stayed in a two bedroom townhouse that included two full baths, a half bath, a sleeper sofa, a full kitchen and washer/ dryer. The town home was clean and free of any insects or bugs. A local bike vendor (Wheelz) is in close proximity of the facility. My teens actually rode their bikes back to the townhouse after picking up our 2 complimentary bikes. (Please note that Wheelz will only deliver and pick up your bike if you are staying at the resort at least 3 days). The rental community is bike friendly. I estimate that the beach Is less than a 10 minute bike ride from the townhouse location. After a day at the beach it was convenient to be able to wash our beach towels and swimsuits. The television sets were about 32 inches and were not smart / internet based TVs. Publix, CVS, a smoothie shop, 5 Guys Burgers and other restaurants were a close drive (or bike ride away).

We like our unit. Clean and tidy. Only thing is you have to drive to the beach near Sonesta and not walking distance.

The property was perfect for those who want more space to spread out on vacation and have a more relaxed venue. The full kitchen provided us the opportunity to eat at home and even pack up snacks for the pool and the beach. It was a wonderful experience!

I loved this place. The only Issues we had was we had 4 roaches in the resort. We did find them dead in the place we stayed though. And there was no hot water in the bathroom sinks, but we had hot water everywhere else. Bathtub was amazing!

Great place to stary with family. Townhouse was newly renovated, I mean everything brand new and clean inside- kitchen, ever bathroom, laundry room. There was pool by the townhouse and we could also use huge pool with lazy river by the main club house. They gave us 2 bike rentals and we took 2 additional so we had very active vacations. You can bike around everywhere, restaurants, beach, club house and grocery. Beautiful place.

Really a very good experience. As opposed to other places, they were still able to check us in timely and orderly. Excellent communication about routine matters as well as covid 19 precautions. The condo was virtually identical to another unit for which we are owners, but more economical, better communication, and way better checkin.

Very Clean Condo
Condo was very clean. Spacious, smelled clean, good size kitchen with laundry Very comfortable. Two full baths upstairs and a half bath downstairs. 90% of the condo interior and furnishings looked brand new. Cleaning crew obviously takes pride in their work. Minuses- At check-in we had to meet with the concierge regarding a time share presentation before we could proceed to the cond, which was inconvenient. During the day Saturday the carpet cleaners were working in adjoining units for at least 3 hours, and it was very loud. At checkout no one asked how our stay was or anything at all. The whole experience was a little strange.

Lots of space in this unit - we had 4 people and all were comfortable - pools were lovely. Especially liked the lazy river pool, but we had to drive there as this unit was across the street in a more secluded area away from the clubhouse. Did not like the long time we were directed to spend with concierge at check in - basically trying to get us to go to the time share presentation.

The Coral Reef is a Very Good Value
The Coral Reef Resort is located in a lovely wooded area in Shipyard Plantation. It is a multi-unit complex with a pool, hot tub and grills. The amenities are nice but not luxurious. Beach access is a bike or short car ride away. There are bathrooms and beach showers available. The interior of the unit is very nice and has everything that you'll need to enjoy your stay. The first floor includes a laundry room, kitchen, dining room, half bath, living room and shaded deck outside. The second floor has two well appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. We were very comfortable and found our stay to be quite relaxing. Overall, it represents very good value and we would stay here again.

We liked the condo at Coral Reef Resort, quiet, clean community. The bicycle are free to use while there. The only thing that we where disappointed with was the fact that the amenities at Coral Sands resort are not included if you stay at Coral Reef even though they are the same business entity. Other than that, we where satisfied with the condo.

Perfect for families
I am a self-proclaimed hotel snob and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Cleanliness is always an important factor and this place was spotless! Traveling with young children can be stressful, but staying here provided all of the comforts of home with the beach just down the street. They offer a bike service upon request and you can use the bikes to go everywhere. Bike paths will lead you from the condo to almost anywhere you want to go and safely! Highly recommend!!

Nice place. Just with the Coral Reef visitors have access to Coral Sands pool as well. I mean they are the same company it should be open access just like the business office and the gym. We used those - why not the POOL??

Great location,Perfect for families,Close to beach
Coral Reef was ideally situated. Convenient to everything (restaurants, shopping, etc.) and a short bike ride to beach. The bike rentals were great. Called the company upon arrival and bikes were waiting for us at check in. Biking the island is not to be missed and was definitely a highlight. The grounds at Shipyard are lush and beautifully landscaped. Overall, Lots of room for my husband and I and 3 teenage boys to spread out. Full kitchen, furnished patio, washer/dryer, and many other comforts of home. Unit 122 was immaculate. The pool was on the small side but we never made it there since we primarily hung out at beach. Loved the fact that there was no minimum stay required nor was there a deposit when I booked on Expedia. No complaints at all for our 2 night stay and would definitely stay at Coral Reef again for next HHI trip. Avoided sales presentation so no comments there.

Loved it - clean, updated, convenient location!
Loved that we were able to rent it for only a few days, there was no weekly minimum. It was very clean and updated. We loved that it was so close to Coligny and the beach access was an easy bike ride away. The pool area was very nice, wish it would've been a little bigger, but the kids didn't seem to mind. It was nice that 2 bikes came with the rental. Overall, it was the nicest place we have stayed in HHI and we will definitely be back soon!

great value
ended up staying here because the area hotels were as expensive as the condo. stayed Friday afternoon through sunday morning, so it wasn't a terribly long stay. had 2 adults and 2 kids, so the extra space the condo provided was so much better than what a small hotel could offer. we saw 2 alligators and some turtles while driving to/from the condo. we spent a lot of time at the pool - it is open year-round. there's music playing at the pool which is nice. pool was clean. the condo was very clean and spacious. wish we had more time to spend there but would definitely stay there again if I go back to HHI

Our stay at Coral Reef Resort was brief but enjoyable. The inclusion of bicycle rentals, tennis passes, and golf passes added to our fun. The rates we paid were unbelievably low for such luxurious accommodations! Can;t wait to come again!

Quiet and Relaxing
We enjoyed the amenities at Coral Reef. We received 2 complimentary bikes for our entire stay. They also included 1 hour free tennis court use daily and reduced golf rates. The townhouse was very roomy and clean, but could use some updating. There was also a community pool within walking distance, but need to drive to the beach. It was very hard to find parking at the beach lot (even in Sept), but can easily drive to a larger parking lot at Coligny. Would highly recommend and we will probably be back in the future.

Coral Reef at Shipyard
We loved it! We got a last minute rental for 2 weekdays at Hilton Head. It was a 2 floor 2 bedroom condo with a kitchen. We were given a guest parking pass for the lot by the quiet beach which was clean and wonderful!
