Had a fantastic time at this resort. The balcony suite overlooking the water was extravagant, and the room was clean and tidy the restaurant inside the resort had decent food that was very convenient. Pool area was kept nice and enjoyable. Breakfast had a wide selection and was good. my favorite thing that we utilized was the free bike rental that we used to traverse the island. Would recommend, and will rebook in the future.

Great place to stay
We came to town for one night. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back and stay longer. The staff was welcoming and very helpful when I had questions about the property. The onsite restaurant was good. We enjoyed a light lunch and decided to eat there again for dinner and we weren’t disappointed. The grounds were very nice and kept. The room was clean, fresh, and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable. The only area that might improve would be a few minor things. The sofa had a rip in it and some floor trim was missing in the bathroom. The water pressure in the shower could have been better. One unexpected thing was the complimentary bike rental. We really enjoyed taking a bike ride along the coast to Driftwood Beach. Overall I was extremely happy with my stay.

Balcony overlooking the beach and pool (room 403, corner room). Clean and spacious room, SUPER-quiet with insulated windows and blackout curtains. Spacious kitchen with workspace. This truly is a small studio. $30/daily resort fee is tacked on (not their choice) but they compensate by giving $30/day credit in amenities, including restaurant and bar! The ONLY downside (or upside, depending on perspective) is that it is pet friendly, meaning a pooch may have been on your bed right before you checked in. Not a problem for us because the place was CLEAN and SILENT despite the presence of LARGE (well behaved) dogs, but if you are a germaphobe or afraid of encountering a large dog in the hallway or restaurant,.. look elsewhere.

We like staying here for because of the location on Jekyll Island the views from the rooms and the staff. What we don't like is the cleaning of rooms schedules. They won't clean your room daily and cleaning schedule is based on the numbers of days you stay which is very upsetting to us.

The location was wonderful, easy walk to beautiful beach and huge dunes. There were free bikes and bike paths all over the island (an untouched tropical paradise thru the center of the island). The room was spacious and clean. We had a difficult time getting enough bath towels each day. The restaurant food was just ok, and they seated us at a table that had not been wiped down. Also, there was a bit of an ant problem around the pool. And the ocean water is black at Jekyll Island. There was ping pong, corn hole, big jenga and big connect 4 to keep us entertained.
