Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: June 1, 2026
Hilton Head On The Water is a participant in the FareHarbor Distribution Network (FHDN) affiliate program and may include other affiliate relationships. This page explains how affiliate commissions work on this site and what that means for you as a visitor.
What Is an Affiliate Link?
An affiliate link is a tracking link that attributes a booking or referral to this site. When you click a booking link on Hilton Head On The Water and complete a reservation with a third-party operator, we may receive a small commission from the operator or booking platform at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is identical to what you'd pay booking directly.
FareHarbor Distribution Network (FHDN)
Many of the booking links on this site route through the FareHarbor Distribution Network (FHDN). FHDN is a program operated by FareHarbor that allows approved affiliate sites to earn commissions on bookings made through FareHarbor-powered operator pages. Operator links marked with "Books through FareHarbor" are part of or transitioning to this program.
Does This Affect Our Recommendations?
No. Our operator recommendations are based on the quality of the experience, FareHarbor availability, and editorial judgment — not on commission rates. We only feature operators that are active, bookable, and represent a genuine option for Hilton Head visitors. If a great operator is not on FareHarbor, we may still mention them in editorial content as a direct-link option.
Direct Operator Links
Some links on this site go directly to operator websites pending approval of the full affiliate relationship. These links are marked accordingly and earn no commission. They are included because the operator is a legitimate option for visitors, not because of any financial relationship.
