Pros:

Great facilities and views of the ocean. The bike rentals and beach chairs were a hit as well. Everything is so close and access to the Island club was an added bonus.

Cons:

I wish the bike rental was available earlier than 9:30 so I could ride before the heat of the day.

Always a fun and relaxing stay!
Pros:

We love the pool area, the beach, the service staff and the restaurant. This is our third trip to the Ocean Club. Front desk also are all friendly. Love newer boards of daily happenings .. consider electronic. Housekeeping helpful.

Cons:

So a few things 1) larger trash bins in rooms and bathrooms- families fill too fast in one day 2) check lightbulbs in all rooms third year third time light bulb issue 3) full length mirror add to rooms helpful to get ready 4) bathroom fans to help with humidity and bathroom odors 5) bit larger fridge helpful if older patrons need to bring special dietary needs or for new babies / mom refrigerator needs.

Pros:

The hotel was very comfortable.

Cons:

We had asked for early check in. When we arrived we were told our room was not ready and that they would text when it was. We sat in the lobby waiting for a long time and at shift change we inquired again and was told it was in fact ready.

The other thing I would have like to have seen was more chaise lounge chairs that were in the shade. The few they had were taken by guests who weren’t even around. They put their towels down and left.

Excellent view - a little overpriced for just one night stay but it was worth it to see ocean.
Pros:

Food was good - a little more of "American" food should be served along with seafood and less jalapeno food.

Cons:

Extra water and coffee in the rooms and also blankets for each bed.

Pros:

The location, the bar, the food was good rather than great....,but all-in-all, it was a very nice hotel with decent amenities and decent spa offerings!! Enjoy the island 🏝!!!

Cons:

Very limited pedestrian offerings. Unless you take the trolley or drive into town, there's little to do right at the hotel 🏨!!

Pros:

Jekyll Island Ocean Club is tastefully decorated and centrally located within Jekyll Island which makes getting anywhere very easy.

Cons:

Overall, the property was disappointing. This hotel is priced far beyond what is offered in terms of service and amenities. Lack off attention to detail such as not continuously keeping pool towels stocked, broken pool chairs with cigarette burn holes, broken steps leading to the beach, and large gaps in the stonework around the pool are elements that should never be noticed when a property prides itself in luxury and tradition. This hotel is priced like a Ritz but presents itself as a lower Marriott/Hilton property. I would look elsewhere if I were to ever go to Jekyll Island again.

For what it's worth...
Pros:

It was extremely clean, very spacious and the staff were very professional and courteous. The Driftwood beach was nice. Archie, Hailey and Derrick were great!

Cons:

There were no complimentary breakfast, at that price point you'd think at least breakfast would be complimentary. The water in the hotels restaurant smelled and tasted like the ocean, including the ice. It is a family styled resort but the kids can be heard through the walls and celiling.
