This mgmt change has without a doubt destroyed this place. We were seated outside-- our waiter (Johnny) came up to us (15 min later) with dirty dishes in my face taking drink orders. Our drinks haven't come for a total of FORTY THREE MINUTES. We checked in with them at the 20 minute mark mind you, so we gave them a reminder in case they forgot about us but instead passed it on and doubled it for the timing! There is no excuse for this. We all got up and left the table and saw our waiter inside chatting it up at the bar with his coworker holding our drinks. When I made a complaint to mgmt, it was even recognized that they've had issues with Johnny and said sorry. The whole entire staff just seemed very unbothered and aloof to everything. We have some friends who live on the island and when we asked them about the King and Prince, each and every one of them talked about how its now a shithole. They've heard stories about the staff, below average food/drinks, and overall atmosphere that has seemed to have declined when mgmt changed in 2024. So grateful for the lovely memories The King and Prince had to offer us all these years. Super sad to see what it has become and will likely get worse.

Had a fantastic dinner at Georgia Sea Grill…read more Calloway was our server and she was absolutely amazing. She not only kept up with all of our shenanigans but gave it right back, which made the experience even more fun. Attentive, personable, and just a great vibe all around. We started with peach martinis (highly recommend) along with the fried okra, crab soup, wedge salad, and beet salad. Everything was fresh and full of flavor--great way to kick off the meal. For the main course we tried the flounder prepared a few different ways--one fried, one pan-seared, and one bronzed--and each one was fantastic. And then two orders of scallops which were incredibly buttery and cooked perfectly. We wrapped it all up with a slice of Georgia pecan pie that was the perfect sweet ending. Great food, great service, and a really fun night. We'll definitely be back.

But what struck me as very odd, was that there was no music or background noise whatsoever. It was like we were in a library that served beer. There were a few people at the bar and you could easily hear what everyone was saying. I was very aware of the noise level and it didn't feel comfortable speaking at a normal volume. At some point I have to imagine some sort of music gets played. It's just not in the mid afternoon. I will say the service was friendly and fast. The didn't have any beer on draft which was kind of a bummer. I might dip in again at night. But I don't see myself showing up again mid afternoon. It was super awkward and weird.

The wife and I visited Reid's Apothecary for our 46th wedding anniversary which is a cute little…read morerestaurant in downtown Brunswick. Because the restaurant is downtown there is plenty of free street parking spaces right outside the door. There is a bar, with bar seating, The other seating consisted of normal table with hard back chairs, and couches that ran down the side of the wall with tables, and hard back chairs on the other side. Overall, the service was adequate, not good, and certainly not great, but good enough not to stop us from enjoying our night out. I started with what was supposed to be a cup of Tomato Bisque but received and paid for a bowl. Somewhat my fault for not realizing that my serving and what I paid for was large and more expensive than the cup I ordered. With that said, I thought the flavor of the bisque served with, Garlic Buttered Crostini, and grated Smoked Gouda was outstanding. The temperature could have been a bit warmer, but again the flavor was sport on. The wife and I split a very large bowl of PEI Mussels. The Mussels were served in a white wine broth with Shallots, Garlic, Roasted Tomatoes, and Bacon. Honestly, I could and did finish the broth off as a soup. There were quite a few Mussels that did not open, but the bowl was so large, we wouldn't have eaten them anyway. The wife's main dish was the Pan Seared Sea Scallops, with peach and bacon risotto, and fresh Spinach. The dish was finished with an amazing Bourbon Peach Brown Butter Reduction. The scallops were large, the Risotto was great, but the brown butter reduction was the absolute star of the dish. For my main dish I had the Curried Lamb Lollipops, served over Cilantro Basmati Rice, and roasted Tomatoes with an excellent curry sauce. The chops were of good size and cooked to perfection. And please don't even get me started on the fired Garlic Butter Paratha which is some of the best bread I have ever had. My mistake was ordering a side of the Peach and Bacon Risotto similar to what was served with the scallop dish. Without the Bourbon Peach Brown Butter Reduction however, the risotto ate a little dry and had little to no peach flavor. I finished my meal with a bourbon , Mascarpone, bread pudding, which was amazing. The dish was loaded with bourbon which both my wife and I agreed was not completely cooked off. Great dish to finish an outstanding meal. Even with a few minor missteps, the overall flavor of the dishes were so good, I still must give it an overall 5.

The venue is on the smaller side but makes up for it in spades with the adjoining game room with pool, music and arcade games. Lets get back to the subject however, 'dem tacos were quite acceptable. The 3-star rating refers to my opinion that they would not be worth $4 each (versus buy one get one free on their Tuesday promotion) and the service was disappointing. While both the barkeep and the waitress were at max capacity to manage a room full of patrons with a plethora of dining and drink orders, I don't remember a single time we were asked to refill our glasses or how we liked our cuisine. It's the little things, after all. The taco's were in the 2-3 bite range, each being carefully made to order. I was particularly fond of the georgia new york strip steak, paired with chimichurri sauce. The corn tortillas were doubled up and toasted just right to not get too soggy. Another hit was the duck confit carnitas with salsa verde. Very approachable portions and the flavors paired well together. If you're looking for happy hour snacks, I'd recommend 3-4 tacos, a little more if you're seeking to fill your stomach.

This was very very disappointing…read more My husband and I stayed at Sea Palm Resort to celebrate our anniversary after traveling all the way from Maryland. We had been looking forward to this trip and expected a higher level of service based on the resort's reputation. Unfortunately, our experience did not meet those expectations. BTW, all that texting they do before you arrive and checking in on you is purely theatrics. The room itself was spacious, and I really enjoyed the view of nature from our room. We even spotted what I believe was a bobcat in the distance, which was a nice surprise. However, there were several issues that affected our stay. First, the floors did not appear to have been properly mopped before our arrival. There was hair in both the bedroom and the bathroom that appeared to have been left by previous guests. To confirm my concern, I wiped the floor with a damp paper towel, and it came back dirty. We reported this to the front desk, but no one ever came to address the issue. The shower gel was also disappointing. The product had been watered down so much that it was almost the consistency of water. It would shoot out of the dispenser instead of dispensing like a gel and produced almost no lather. That's kind of nasty to be honest dollar tree shower gel would have been better. It's giving "we are barely staying in business." The biggest issue was the air conditioning. It stopped working twice during our stay. We stayed there 3 nights and 2 of them there was no AC. Outside felt better than inside. Maintenance came out after the first report and got it running again, but only a few hours later it stopped working once more. With temperatures outside exceeding 100°F, the room became very uncomfortable. We had to sleep with the deck door open because even the fan was not working so there was no circulating air. Another disappointment was housekeeping. We stayed for three nights (Saturday through Monday), did not have a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door, yet no one serviced our room during our stay. We never received fresh towels, the room was never cleaned, and no one checked in to see if we needed anything. Apparently you have to request housekeeping and telling them the floor is dirty isn't enough to get housekeeping to the room. Another concern was that we saw roaches in the room, regular household roaches. In all of my years of traveling, I have never stayed at a hotel where I encountered roaches, so this was very disappointing and concerning. Overall, the room itself had potential, and I appreciated the peaceful setting and beautiful natural surroundings. However, the cleanliness, lack of housekeeping, diluted bath products, and repeated air conditioning issues prevented this from feeling like the upscale resort experience we expected. I hope management addresses these concerns because the property has potential, but based on this visit, it did not live up to its reputation.

Not sure why this property gets such middling reviews. I stayed here for a week on a business…read moretrip, and really enjoyed it. Quiet property, rooms well maintained and recently updated, great marsh views, and minutes away from the best restaurants on the island. Super friendly and accommodating staff, especially Gabriel, Michaela, and Khellen (probably misspelled those last two). I did have a minor billing error, but the folks at the front desk made sure to resolve it. My only dings on the room would be the indoor humidity level (but hey, you're steps away from the marsh, what do you expect) and the shower being in need of a deep cleaning (bit of mold and soap scum buildup). Also--and this is super minor--there is no shelf in the shower, so you're stuck storing your toiletries on the floor if you don't want to use the hotel-provided stuff. Oh, and there's no lifeguard on duty at the pool, so it can get a bit rowdy depending on how many teenagers are around. All in all, I'm very happy with my stay here, and would definitely recommend this property if you don't want to deal with the craziness around the south end of the island. Also, for the other reviewer who said they had to haul their luggage up stairs... there are ramps at every building. You just have to look for them.
