Yes, JP made a good decision when he and his buddies got together and bought Jekyll Island during The Gilded Age. The fact that the subsequent owners of the Jekyll Island Club had the good taste to preserve its refined elegance is also fabulous. What can I say? I think the Jekyll Island Club is wonderful from any perspective. I... More

What a magnificent, peaceful, luxurious place to stay! We had a gorgeous room in Cherokee cottage. We ate in Crane restaurant for two nights and had a really lovely waitress both nights. The food was fab. Breakfast in the grand dinning room was a treat and the staff very friendly. The pastries and coffee in the little cafe were delicious.... More

The Jekyll Island Club is a truly beautiful property and just oozes history. Once a retreat for America's ultra rich, the facilities are now owner by the Jekyll Island Authority and privately operated. While stating there recently as part of a conference, I was surprised to find that I had been upgraded to a king suite in the Cherokee cottage.... More

Just such a wonderful experience we keep going back and it just gets better each time. The dining experience is the greatest and the whole staff is wonderful to deal with. They're all friendly, cheerful, and efficient. You feel great from start to finish......Katha in reservations makes you want to be able to be there every week-end.... Can't wait for... More

Travelling down the driveway towards the hotel you just have to stop and marvel at where you are. This is a gorgeous olde worlde place to leave the cares of the modern world behind. Stroll the grounds, rent a bike and travel at a slower pace. My suite was absolutely gorgeous and expansive with views out of the shuttered windows... More

This hotel was magnificent. My wife and I felt so relaxed being there, we enjoyed every minute of this jewel of the south. Realizing the famous turn-of-the-century captains of industry (Rockefellers, Vanderbilt, Pulitzer; etc.) that once inhabited these grounds made it all the more exciting for us. To be able to stay in a place so quiet and beautiful and... More

This hotel is full of history; it's where the Federal Reserve system originated. Also the first transcontinental phone call was made from here in 1915...a four-way call which included New York, S.Francisco and Washington DC. It's a great place to take your kids to learn of the rich history of this area. There's also a turtle sanctuary....and lots to do.... More

When we first got there, we all looked at each other and said now what. And, what did we do? But even that very first day, the more you learned about this place, the more entranced you became. It was so relaxing. It wasn't pretentious, although, it could be if you want it to be, but we didn't. The room... More

We met another couple from GA, my wife's cousin and her husband. They drove down and we drove up from Amelia Island, FL.- for a four day relaxation and golf outing. Bill and I played golf and enjoyed the fine condition of the Lake course. I had coupons that kept the 18-hole + cart price down to $25/ea. We saw... More

My family and I enjoyed an afternoon visiting the Jekyll Island Club Hotel and its historic grounds. The historical significance of this property is impressive with a walking tour or the various buildings and residences that make up "The Winter City." We particularly enjoyed having a drink at "The Pub."
