Top East Beach Hotel Reviews

Saint Simons Inn by the Lighthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place to stay. It's next door to the Lighthouse and Pier Village. Our room was super nice with a walk-in shower. We definitely will be staying here again in in the future."

Ocean Inn and Suites

8/10 Good

"I loved the size of the room and both beds were comfortable. The hot water did not get very hot and the toilet kept running. This hotel is about to undergo renovation so maybe all will be better upon another visit. I liked that the room had a balcony but I did not like that I couldn’t use it. The view was great. The continental breakfast was meh. All tea was decaffeinated except for the green tea. A mixed review but overall still liked it for a 1 night stay. Staff did not go out of their way to welcome us or check that they could do anything to make our stay more pleasant."

Ocean Lodge Resort

8/10 Good

"It was a nice place but there was no pool, no breakfast and the rooftop restaurant was only open from 5-9 thurs- sat We also had showers that got water all over floor when you used them. Loved the balcony. Palm trees blocked ocean view. Needs some tweaking and it would be great."

The Sea Gate

10/10 Excellent

"Seagate was a lively place to stay. The rooms were tastefully decorated with a coastal vibe, clean, and filled with ambience."

Hodnett Cooper's Beach Club

10/10 Excellent

"We were surprised by the gorgeous view in condo 412 and the television services available which do not match the Hodnett Cooper website images for The Beach Club. There were 3 nice TVs in every room with Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Netflix, etc. The Hodnett Cooper website listed only a DVD player available so we took a bunch of old DVDs to watch but there was not DVD player. The only other issues: 1. There was a broken towel hanging hook in the master bath; the hook was lying on the vanity. 2. The trashcan lid was broken in the kitchen. 3. The ceiling fan in the living room did not work though the light built into the ceiling fan would come on. 4. The air conditioner is very loud probably because the units are mounted on the roof of the building we we we were on the top 4th floor. 5. The condos are quite far from the beach but the walk through the sand dunes is beautiful and we enjoyed the walk. It's a major chore for families taking a lot of beach gear so we simply carried a couple of towels and a beach bag."
