I am interested in buying a time share and have been offered one at a Spinnaker resort on Hilton Head. They are offering a floating week, which I have been told is usable at any time of the year, at any of their resorts. In addition, they have stated that I will be able to exchange the Interval packages without any issues. I have a couple questions:

1. A floating week would seem like an advantage, what are the drawbacks?

As Don said, don't buy from a developer ..... you can buy a resale for pennies on the dollar of what a developer charges. Concerning floating weeks, when you own a floating week you must make your reservation well in advance of your vacation .... if you wait until the last minute there may not be anything available.

2 Is Hilton Head, SC really considered a “premium” destination in the U.S.?

Yes, Hilton Head is a premium vacation destination.

3. Are there issues I can expect to deal with when it comes to exchanging my week with Interval?

Exchanging is a crap shoot .... you would have to deposit your week then choose an exchange as early as possible.

4. Is there anything specific to Spinnaker I should be concerned about? Thanks.

I don't really know the Spinnaker product personally, but from what I've read it's a good product, HOWEVER, don't buy from a developer .... look for a resale.
