Great cocktails & food is good. Amazing pool staff very attentive during our stay. The ambiance was fun with live music.

We came to the Omni Hotel for a daycation and the Buoy Bar is a restaurant on the premises. We dined there for lunch. The theme is Caribbean so many of the dishes were Caribbean inspired. We sat on the patio. The service was quick and attentive. The food was good but nothing stood out. We only dined there because there were no other options. We spent the remainder of the day on the beach which was adjacent to the restaurant.

Great service and amazing view! Food was also good, but definitely over priced. Ranch was just Kraft and our Pina Coladas tasted like water more than anything, but the food really was good. I loved the adult chicken strips! Our waiter was super friendly too! :)

Its lovely seating by the poo area and has a deck side bar. The hospitality of staff is amazing and is always smiling. I wish they will add more to their menu, i am sure it will rock the place. The barbecue wings are too saucy, maybe order the sauce on the side. The cocktails are amazing.

Great bar next to the pool, and also a short walk from the private beach access ramp at Omni Hotel Hilton Head. I got a piña colada and it was perfectly made and so refreshing! It's super casual there, so you can walk up wearing your swimsuit and it's totally fine. Faster service if you just order at the bar. You can order both food and drinks at the bar. It's pretty loud and crowded there in the afternoons, so expect some wait to get your drinks and food.

What a great bar inside the Omni Hotel at Hilton Head Island. Seating is outside near the pool and the drinks are surprisingly delicious for a poolside bar! I always expect poolside bar drinks to be weak and watered down, but all of mine were delicious and pretty! Another wonderful thing about this bar is that they have a server come around the pool to bring you drinks while you lounge or swim! And they charge it to your room so you don't have to fumble with payment. Highly recommend!

Fish tacos were fantastic, short rib tacos too! Portions are generous and there is a great kids selection including milk shakes and smoothies. This a good spot to take a break from the heat, beach or pool. The resort pool area is not open to the general public. The restrooms are shared with the pool. Service is always top-notch at Omni properties.

We have a vacation home and our beach access is next to the Omni, so we go to the Buoy Bar A LOT. When it's an adult trip, especially, we are there every day for drinks and a snack or lunch. When it's a family trip, we still go frequently. Try the pina colada with a run floater, yum. For food, the guac and queso are our favorites (these are two different menu items). We absolutely love the short rib and caramelized onion tacos, the watermelon salad, the fries...just everything, it's all good. Courtney always serves us and he's great. The Buoy Bar is much better than your typical hotel pool bar.
The Buoy Bar is a great place to grab lunch while staying at the Omni! They also have wonderful mixed drinks. The passion colada and mango daiquiri were my favorites of the trip. If you don't want to go up to the bar, servers walk around the pool taking orders and delivering food. The drinks and food are a bit pricey but they are good and a nice way to treat yourself on vacation. Unfortunately the jackfruit tacos weren't being served yet. Eating primarily vegetarian, I was super excited for those because it's something different from the usual restaurant food I can eat but without those it left salads and chips/salsa/guac for my options. I would like to see some more veggie options but everyone I was with who got sandwiches and burgers loved them!
