4 Star Hotels in Golden Isles of Georgia, Georgia

"Perfect check in to room"

"If you love historic properties (and they're not making them anymore are they--), put this one your "bucket list"-- we had a fine time.... The five minute walk to and from parking will cost you a fresh shirt each time due to humidity, AND navigating the several adjoining buildings will take you a day to master, BUT YOU WILL ADAPT. The staff very accommodating, the public areas of the facility a grand experience. I would term the rooms adequate-- bed didn.t quite match my back, shower underpowered, everything else fine. Did not use the pool but inviting. Really enjoyed the little touches provided such as late afternoon champagne on the veranda, live music evenings in the bar. Had a fantastic (albeit slightly pricey) Sunday brunch in the beautiful Grand Dining Room; also as part of the main building complex The Pantry is a place to pick up a breakfast burrito, etc. The associated Wharf Restaurant a minute stroll across the property had surprisingly good casual seafood; 80 Ocean Restaurant is at the sister property Jekyll Ocean Club, located in a modern hotel and shopping development a 5-10 minute drive away, offering a bit more elevated fare (Island Club offers a semi-hourly shuttle service); the Dunes (which appears as a meal option in the resort materials) is a basic beach snack bar-- a good little drive from the resort.. You will also note a number of very grand "gilded age cottages" adjacent to the resort-- some of them available as group accommodations or event venues. "
