Fall in love with the new, family-friendly, oceanside Holiday Inn Resort on Jekyll Island
We checked out the brand new Holiday Inn Resort on nearby Jekyll Island this summer & fell in love. Two words to describe this Golden Isles oceanside hotel: fresh & welcoming.
Our kids adored sleeping in a room with a full view of the Atlantic – then swimming in an elegant dark-bottom pool, playing on a playground & eating breakfast at an outdoor restaurant – all within sight and sound of the ocean.
The hotel grounds are graceful with newly redone landscaping, wind-sculpted oak trees and the island bike path that winds alongside the ocean. There’s also a fire pit, hot tub, baby pool, beach access & bike rentals.
Check availability here.
You may love this hotel so much, you very well could opt to drop into one of the sleek pool lounge chairs with a book while your family hits Summer Waves water park and other spots on our list of top Jekyll Island things to do with kids.
The only drawback was that the hotel is so new that its indoor restaurant Beach House is not open until Fall 2015. The outdoor poolside restaurant is open & serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. So this worked out perfectly during our stay because we had great weather. But rain could send you out to one of the restaurants on the island.
Jekyll Island is an easy, roughly 90-minute drive down I-95 from Savannah. See our list of things to do with kids on on Jekyll Island here.
