Top Georgia Sea Turtle Center Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Jekyll Island

10/10 Excellent

"Very helpful staff and great amenities with beach access."

Jekyll Island Club Resort

8/10 Good

"The refrigerators in the room were sub standard. Never could sort out how to keep them on properly and it had no freezer section. I am at a Microtel Hotel in Palm Coast, FL and they have a nice compact Whirlpool with a freezer section and a refrigerator section that is the same size as the one in our room. I would suggest upgrading. Otherwise, our stay was most enjoyable. The front desk staff was terrific, the bell hops were great, our driver Artis was super, the bartenders were top notch and the wait staff in the Main Dining room for breakfast were superb."
