The Spotlight on Hotel Carolina A Days Inn by Wyndham

Relaxed, affordable comfort near Hilton Head Island's live music scene

Hotel Carolina A Days Inn by Wyndham offers casual, no-frills lodging just a short drive from some of Hilton Head Island’s best entertainment spots. Located near Shelter Cove Harbor and only 3 miles from Dreissen Beach Park, this hotel is perfect for travelers looking to enjoy live music without the high price tag. With free WiFi, an outdoor pool, and in-room conveniences like microwaves and mini-fridges, it’s a great base for a music-filled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans love this hotel’s convenient location—only about a mile from Shelter Cove Harbor, a popular spot for outdoor concerts and events. After a night out, you’ll appreciate the hotel’s quiet surroundings and 24-hour reception for easy late-night returns. Check-in begins at 4:00 PM, and check-out is at 11:00 AM, giving you time to sleep in after a late show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a budget-friendly launchpad for the weekend
  • Solo travelers catching their favorite act at the coast
  • Couples pairing a concert night with a beachy weekend escape
  • Fans wanting a quieter space to recharge post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who prefer to spend on the experience, not the room

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t have an on-site restaurant, you’ll find plenty of dining options nearby, including late-night bites and casual local eats. Rooms come with a microwave and mini-fridge—great for stashing leftovers or prepping a quick snack after the show. Morning-after coffee is sorted with in-room coffee makers, and many local cafés offer breakfast within walking or short driving distance.

Nightlife Options

You're just over a mile from the waterfront dining and bar scene at Shelter Cove Harbor—perfect for pre- or post-concert drinks. While the hotel doesn’t host live music on-site, the island’s laid-back nightlife and beach bars are just minutes away.

What People Say

Guests frequently mention the friendly staff, clean rooms, and excellent location near the beach and entertainment. Many reviewers appreciate the affordable rates and say it’s a solid choice for a short stay when attending local events.

Areas for Improvement

This is a simple, budget hotel—so don’t expect luxury. Some guests noted the decor is dated and the property could use a refresh. But if you’re here for the concert, not the carpet, it does the job.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a clean, affordable place to crash after a Hilton Head concert, Hotel Carolina A Days Inn by Wyndham puts you close to the action without breaking your budget.

Worst choice hotel

Liked: Location wasn't too far away from the main area.
Disliked: The place is a run down dusty dump. But even in a modest motel, you can make up for what's lacking with good old hospitality. This place has none. The staff doesn't even lift their head to acknowledge you when you enter the lobby and say good morning. If you have an issue, they will tell you you are wrong, there's nothing that can be done, or throw their co-workers under the bus. Read the manager's contrite responses to complaints in these reviews to understand what you're dealing with.MOST UNCOMFORTABLE BED I'VE EVER ENCOUNTERED IN A HOTEL. When I sat on the bed, it bottomed out and I'm not a large woman.I bought a yoga mat and slept on the floor for 4 nights bc that was the better option. I spend about 100 nights a year in hotels and mattresses in chain hotels are generally dictated down from corporate. This was not in compliance for chain requirements. See pics of mattress bottoming out.I was told:1) It's not an expired mattress, it's fine2) it's in the handicap room, handicapped people need mushy mattresses3) the maintenance guy looked at it and it is fine4) someone else slept in that room last week and he was fine 5) you can call booking.com and forfeit 2 nights' cost and they can find you somewhere else to sleepBreakfast is grab and go - don't think you're getting breakfast, you get an apple, honeybun and kiddie granola bar. There's a diner in walking distance.
