The new couches surely can't be more uncomfortable than the old ones. What were they nicknamed? Ejecto-couch???

Yes , they can be,,,,,,

Guess I'll find out in October.

Does anyone know if the couches are the same in the studios as in the larger units?

 

[Simba's Mom]

Guess I'll find out in October.

Please do report on how you find the comfort of the couch. Sounds like we should pack the heating pad and the Icy Hot just in case. Last year DH's 72 yo back desperately needed both.

As you can see, the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash now have pump buttons on the bottom vice pump spouts on the top.

Edited to add: The containers in the shower/tub have locking mechanisms on top if any of you are worried about such things.

DVC Fan has a resort spotlight video on DHHIR!

Sounds like the DVC Fan group enjoyed their visit to DHHIR!

I watched it before seeing this note. They did seem to love it, but they could have gone into a little better detail about things such as the parking situation, the Beach House, which buildings seem to offer the best marsh views (and they kept calling the marsh a "bay"), etc. Still, I posted a note saying I was happy they loved the place!

Driving / AutoTrain next trip, so we plan to pack folding lawn chairs - they are much more comfortable than the new "ouch-couch"

Darn! At first I thought there was a grab bar in the bath tub, but then I realized it was just a reflection from the sliding door handle.

First thing I do is close the blind over the window in the studio bathroom! I see the window reflected in the shower door.

I did not find the new couches uncomfortable at BWV and BCV - that I remember.

Anyone ever been at Hilton Head for Easter on here? We will be down there this year at Easter, do they do anything special on property? We stayed at Wilderness Lodge last Halloween and they had activities for the kids so we are wondering if they do something like that for Easter?

We've been to HHI for Easter, but it was 13 years ago, so things could (and probably have) changed. That year they had a brunch available at the Beach House. They also had a Golden Easer Egg hunt, where you followed clues and the first person to find it got a prize. I remember the best part was that B'leu was at the Brunch, and I mentioned that I missed Shadow, so later he brought Shadow to the main pool and found me to visit with Shadow.

Anyone have the General Manager's email address for Hilton Head Resort?

Have they started them or are they still using them? We are in a 2 bedroom - fingers crossed we get refurb but we will just be happy to be there and the weather looks amazing next week!
