Hampton Inn St. Simons Island

8/10 Good

"It was ok"

Saint Simons Inn by the Lighthouse

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great place to stay to access everything on St. Simon Island. It is so conveniently located to the lighthouse, the pier, the pier village shops and restaurants. The room was well decorated as was the Inn and everything was as pictured and very clean. The breakfast offered had cereals, yogurt, fresh fruit, egg bites or oatmeal that could be warmed in the microwave, several breads selections. We did not use the pool, but it also was very clean. The only negative we have is that the parking under the facility was very tight in some spots due to the support columns, but they did have parking in the rear of the building or across the street as well. We will definitely return to stay here in the future."

Hampton Inn & Suites Jekyll Island

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was truly courteous and we were allowed to check in 2 hours earlier which made our trip to Jekyll Island much more inviting and relaxing. In addition, we were given complimentary water bottles. And since both my husband and I were so thirsty at that time of check-in, we felt so comfortable right away. The room was huge and very clean and the pillows as well as the queen size beds were extremely comfy! The beach behind the hotel was so beautiful, clean and had privacy. Breakfast was sumptuous and had lots of options. Again, the staff made sure our needs were met. Great hotel for an island getaway!"

Villas By the Sea Resort & Conference Center

8/10 Good

"I had paid for ocean view expecting to see the ocean. However I saw maybe a foot of it between the overgrown shrubs. No big deal if I didn’t request ocean view as well as call to confirm ocean view. I did like that housekeeping did not bother you daily I also would have like to have known that Jekyll island had a pay to park toll every day. Wish that would have been added into the stay not an extra $49"

Holiday Inn Express Saint Simons Island by IHG

8/10 Good

"The hotel had a musty smell when you first walked into the lobby, but overall it wasn’t entirely bad. However, once you got into the rooms, the rooms had amazing smell and they were very clean. Perhaps they may need to change their carpeting in the lobby and in the hallway because there are no carpets in the rooms so that’s why there’s no smells in there but overall the hotel was great and the staff was very helpful."
