Jekyll Oceanfront Resort & Spa Review

This is the largest oceanfront hotel on Jekyll Island, set on about 15 flat, sandy acres whose focal point is a rectangular swimming pool. It sits near the island's northern tip and is designed in a vaguely Iberian motif of white walls and terra-cotta roofs rising amid pine trees. An expanse of lawn and a breakwater composed of a ribbon of massive boulders separate the compound from the sea. Guests walk over a raised boardwalk to reach the sands. The guest rooms are furnished in a rather bland style. The management rather grandly refers to its units as "villas"; they're more like duplex-style town houses, each of which abuts similar units to the left and right. On the hotel premises is a bar and restaurant, the Italian Fisherman.

Facilities:
Restaurant; 2 bars; outdoor pool; fitness center; spa; children's playground; room service; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
