This was our best hotel experience in past two years: from amenities like bikes, laundry, heated pool, anccess to sea island golf facility, and ample outdoor space to relax. The staff was also great; very good breakfast, and helpful staff, like Shelby who went out of get way to help w bikes, local access, and helped to make this a nice experience.

The hotel is lovely, with a bar which hosts a Happy Hour on all drinks even top shelf along with choices of apps on their bar menu. The Bed was Super Comfy and the pillow are wonderful! Decor is very traditional but well kept. They have a heated pool, and outdoor seating areas with heaters. Our only possible down side was it’s not near the ocean front area. We were only spending a night passing thru on our travels. There are several shopping centers nearby and they also offer free bikes to use!

I liked the decor and size of the room, the staff and public areas. I wish there was an on-site restaurant and a bar which was separate from the golf simulator. Listening to the constant whack of golf balls while trying to enjoy a drink and/or a bite to eat is annoying. However, the lobby and outdoor seating areas are quite pleasant.

Melissa at the front desk could not have been more pleasant! Check in and parking was no issue. They have plenty of luggage carts available. We didn’t notice til a few hours later when we were getting ready to shower that there was No shower curtain. Thankfully Melissa came to the rescue and installed one fairly quickly, but we missed our dinner reservations. Then once we were preparing for bed, there was no privacy door sign….so we were disturbed twice by housekeeping. My husband is handicapped. We requested and received a handicapped accessible room, but there was only 1 grab bar for the entire shower and it was all the way inside the shower in the center of the wall, so noting to assist with getting in nor out of the shower. Also, the toilet is Not ADA approved it’s low like a regular toilet. Breakfast was tasty and staff pleasant, but disappointed in attention to detail in multiple areas, especially for this hotel to be associated even if only in name with Sea Island.

Upon check in the front desk clerk was friendly. We went into our room only to find it was occupied. We were moved to another room. Within an hour or two the cable TV was out. Notified the front desk who said they were aware. Late that night still no TV. The next morning brought it to the staff in the breakfast area who took it to the manager on duty. Oddly she seemed to have no knowledge of but quickly addressed it with IT and had Comcast onsite. Was repaired when we returned late afternoon early evening. The breakfast was tasty and the breakfast staff were so hospitable. We liked the area but not sure would stay here again with other options available.

Great hotel, the staff from the front desk to the breakfast area were very pleasant and friendly. The only small inconvenience was that our room was near the outside seating area, and on our last night, a large group of people were talking loudly until midnight. The hotel should after 11:00 P.M., ask the guest to move inside to the bar area. Overall, a great stay.

We had a pleasant time at The Inn at Sea Island. To be clear it is on St Simons island and offers no access to Sea Island, The Cloister or amenities. The exterior decor is much like it is at Sea Island, the inside is not. The rooms are a little tired and need a refresh. Our check in was seamless, the pool and lobby area were nice. We did visit the breakfast buffet for coffee and looked well stocked. We were there for a short visit for a wedding weekend. I think this location probably works well for golfers as there seemed to be several groups at the hotel. If you’re going to St Simon’s for beach vacation you would probably want to stay closer to a beach. This location is close to shopping and restaurants.

This property was nice, well decorated and well landscaped. The staff was super helpful and the free breakfast was good. (Several hot items and crispy bacon every day.) Only complaint was the squeaky coils in the box springs. Just turning over make a squeaky sound which woke up others sleeping in the same room.

Service is a standout: staff are consistently friendly, attentive, and accommodating, with smooth check-in and helpful resolution of issues. Isolated remarks note an abrupt breakfast attendant or indifference about strong fragrances.

Fabulous stay! I enjoyed my time in the island so much that I kept adding another night to my reservation. I can’t say enough about the staff, especially Melissa and Alexandra at the front desk. They worked with me regularly to update my reservation. The room was beautiful, the pool was perfect for lounging and swimming, and the added amenity of complimentary breakfast and laundry service was exactly what I was looking for in an extended stay. Upon the approach of Hurricane Helene, rates went up where other hotels’ rates were going down and I had to leave. Otherwise, my stay checked all the boxes.
