Pros

Sea views from room balconies

Complimentary buffet breakfast served daily

Free private parking on premises

Cons

21.5 miles distance to nearest airport

Limited on-site dining options

“All-suite accommodations with fully equipped kitchens and the largest outdoor heated pool on Jekyll Island make this a tempting choice for families. I like that it's pet-friendly too, and has direct beach access. However, spotty service and pricey drinks might give you pause.”
