Top East Beach Hotel Reviews

Ocean Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Location was great! Right across from the beach and Lighthouse! Best!"

Saint Simons Inn by the Lighthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Room 217 was nicer than I anticipated. I loved all the decor and attention to detail. The bathroom was large and very pretty. Our room had a balcony, and an above-the-treetops view of the lighthouse. The location is perfect, especially if you are visiting the lighthouse. The walk by the shore to the pier is beautiful, especially at sunrise. If you like historical fiction, I would especially recommend Eugenia Price’s Lighthouse series. She incorporated much of the history and setting of St. Simons into her books."

Ocean Lodge Resort

8/10 Good

"Good"

Short walk to East beach on St Simons Island.

8/10 Good

"So close to so many activites & great access to the beach. A pervious guest had taken all the hangers, so none available for us to use. The sheets on one of the twin beds was beyond old & peely, thank goodness there was an extra to change the bed with. I think we would have appreciated some directions for the TV, got access to Netflix the one time we watched. The condo & parking were great!! I would stay there again with my friends. Thank you Bonnie for everything!!"

On The Beach With 2 Bikes And Pool

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay and enjoyed the extras available at the property including bikes, chairs, and the wagon. Place was quiet and friendly! Host was quick to answer and didn’t have a long list of to-dos for checkout (always nice!)."

Oceanfront Condo - Private Boardwalk - Pool & Balcony

10/10 Excellent

"Great trip to SSI!"

Ocean front Luxury Coastal Home w/ private pool

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved the house and the location. I hope this will not be a negative score against the owner or the host, but I would recommend to place a TV in each of the rooms and a safety bar on the pool. I have an elderly mother and it was extremely difficult to get her in and out of the pool. The home was very clean and spacious. We could not have asked for a better home for the price. We will definitely book again"

Shipwatch #207 - 2 bed/2 bath St. Simons Island

10/10 Excellent

"There were carts and an elevator that were extremely helpful in loading and unloading. And covered parking. The pool was very clean. The residents were very helpful with information. We really enjoyed our stay..."

Oceanfront complex. Easy walk to beach. Convenient to pier/village area

10/10 Excellent

"The condo is small but worked for what we needed, which was a pet friendly place. That is where this place shines. The grounds are perfect for dogs. There is a path under the unit with nice vegetation and mulch where pets can do their business. They provide bags to pick up the solid stuff. The pool area also has some natural spaces, and beyond the pool there is another large area surrounding the boardwalk to the beach. The walk to the beach isn't too bad and we really enjoyed walking our dog there. The condo has covered parking spaces, but they are tight! We used one when we got there because it was raining hard, but we opted for the open parking after that because I didn't want to squeeze into the spaces. Not a complaint, just an observation."
