The Westin Jekyll Island Beach Resort

Courtyard by Marriott Jekyll Island

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone there was wonderful, friendly, can't wait to go back!"

Villas By the Sea Resort & Conference Center

8/10 Good

"Overall, it was a good experience. There were a few things in the room that needed some maintenance, and had that maintenance been done, it would have improved the experience. I thought it was a little tacky that they charge a resort fee per day, but it doesn't give you access to anything unique that other hotels already offer without charging a resort fee. And I was a little offended that I was expected to remove my trash out of my room when I checked out."
