Top Jekyll Island Hotel Reviews

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Jekyll Island

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Jekyll Island

8/10 Good
"Very clean room, but not well soundproofed. We could hear the people next door watching TV, and it woke us up when someone closed their door loudly. Also, the view is beautiful, but it is not private. The view is from the front of the room, where people walk by, so you can't just have the window open all the time. It's an older hotel, and we were only there for a night so it wasn't a huge problem. Breakfast was very nice, beautiful large room that was well stocked. Beach access was great! Pool towels were a joke - not much bigger than a hand towel. But the hot tub was nice and hot!"

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."
