I've done a lot of traveling, and this was by far the most beautiful and spacious room with a gorgeous view of the marsh (especially at sunset). Would highly recommend staying here. My room was at the San Souci in Jekyll Island Club Resort.

Wonderful place to stay

Reviewed By melissawH6060OQ

We had 2 different rooms as we added an additional night. Both rooms were great! Every room is different and has different owners. The staff was so friendly, helpful and accommodating! Would stay here every time I visit if available. Close to the park, pier, lighthouse, and shopping! The only complaint would be the parking. Very small spaces to park in.

New La Quinta rules at some hotels

Reviewed By N5075BKdeborahm

You have to pay $20 per dog at this facility. We always stayed at the one near Cracker Barrel and that’s what we thought we reserved. That La Quinta which still allows dogs to stay free is now a Wyngate. Have no idea why they would change the name of a hotel thousands stay in twice a year at least

Most Beautiful Resort!

Reviewed By cheyennew510

The Ocean Lodge Resort with its Spanish-Mediterranean style inside and out is one of the finest resorts we have ever stayed in! Our accommodations were in a premium suite for the 1st night on the 4th floor and the Penthouse suite on the 2nd night on the 5th floor. Both suites were large and of course the penthouse suite was even larger with a huge balcony with 2 sliding glass doors and an even better views to the neighborhood and the partial ocean view. All of the furnishings: couch, chairs, ottoman and bed was very comfortable with lovely high quality furnishings, art work, floor tile and woodwork! Loved the large full kitchen with eating island/bar in both suites that we stayed in. There were 2 tv’s in each suite, with one in the living room and one in the bedroom with streaming channels. Each suite we were in had 2 bathrooms; one bathroom had a shower and tub combo and the second bathroom had a shower with 2 shower heads styles to choose from; a hand-held and a stationary. Each bathroom had wonderful bottles of toiletries. The closet had an ironing board, a robe and slippers. Each suite also had a safe. There were no laundry facilities. We stayed on a Sunday and Monday the 1st week of May 2022 which was perfect since the 5th floor restaurant was closed on those days, therefore we had a very quiet stay, and was happy that we didn't have to hear any chatter coming from diners, plus the weather was perfect during our stay! The parking was free and is conveniently located on the 1st level of the resort with the elevator and luggage cart right there. The resort staff was very welcoming and accommodating! The resort is in a lovely neighborhood with a few minutes walk to the beach. The suites were very clean and we saw no bugs during our stay. We are extremely happy that we chose this beautiful property and will definitely plan on coming back to this lovely island and resort!

The Inn at Sea Island

The Inn at Sea Island is the perfect spot for your next golf trip or vacation on St. Simons Island. The Inn is just minutes away from the Sea Island Golf Club and The Lodge, The Cloister on Sea Island, and all of St. Simons Island's historic sites, beaches, and shopping.

Over the Top

Reviewed By bikecharleston

Our group of seven used the Sea Island Inn as our base to explore the Golden Isles for five days. We all were in complete agreement that the location, pool, beds and more were excellent but what really made the difference from other Inns and hotels was the outstanding friendliness and service , in a word - HOSPITALITY of all employees at the Inn and other Sea Island properties. It was my sixth stay with groups here and think it starts at the top- Emily Rose, Maggie Ireland, Racheal Brent along with Tara and Meredith at the front desk and all others at the front desk, breakfast servers, bartender and housekeepers. Highly recommend!

Jekyll Island hotel

Reviewed By NCSUBAB

Great location right on the beach. Roomy areas outside where some guests were grilling and eating. Two pools to choose from. Nice boardwalk to the ocean. The room was plain but clean. Bike rental conveniently located right on the property edge. Balconies are not private but on a walkway - took me a minute to get used to but then liked meeting the neighbors as we walked by. They provide an extensive breakfast that should suit most anyone - dining room is pleasantly located with an ocean view. It was a very kid-friendly hotel and also saw some dogs. Comparing rates it was as good or better value than anything else I found. Only negative was spotty internet but found that true all over the island.

The outside may look iffy but the rooms on the inside are really nice! Comfy bed, large bathroom/vanity, new furniture. Also, do you come to the beach to spend time in your room? I don’t! Great price and right across the street from the beach. I’m only writing this last sentence to get to 200 characters. Haha.

Santa in the Kitchen

Reviewed By 962anthonyp

So this Hilton property meets the grade. It’s clean, efficient, quiet, and features a breakfast that puts many of the surrounding restaurants to shame. This is where you will meet Santa. Forget the fat white dude in the red suit. You are looking for a small statured Latina woman in black that stands behind the plexus-glass patiently awaiting your order. Omelettes of varying ingredients are the norm - cooked to order - but you are not going to throw her by asking for a chocolate chip waffle with whipped cream. If you decide to go way off the menu and ask for a fried egg, be prepared for a casual “did you want that over easy?” She then dresses the plate with a sliver of orange and or watermelon - you are not getting this at the Waffle House. You can add the authentic salsa, that beats most of the Mexican places around here, to the top of your eggstravaganzza and you will not be sorry. Amazingly, this meal of champions comes with the room, and it’s easily one of the best breakfasts you will get in Brunswick. Santa is just one person at this hotel; a hotel that seems to be filled with exceptional staff. I can tell similar stories about the bartender, the maid, the front desk clerk that gave us the heads up on the movies next door. It’s just a gem of a place. Highly recommend!
