The Lodge is the most private hotel option in Sea Island. The Cloister is the largest property and…read moreif you are looking for quiet and reserved, The Lodge is the place. It is a 5 star hotel and has under 50 rooms (43 to be exact). The lobby is gorgeous with dark wooden fixtures, carpets and comfortable couches. We were there in December and the Christmas trees were decorated beautifully. As soon as you arrive at The Lodge, you are welcomed by name and escorted to your room by a butler. I loved the European feel of the Lodge and each room was made to look like a room in a European castle. The artwork reminded me of Belgium and so did the heavy wood. The intent was to look like an English manor, even though it was actually built early in the 20th century. As you enter your room, your have a walk in area with wet bar, Nespresso machine, ironing board that pulls down from the closet and closet area. The bathroom is then also off of the main entryway and has dual sinks, classic metal handles and a pedestol tub. The shower was a huge walk-in shower made of marble and the handles reminded me of something from London in the early 1900's. The toiletries are by Milton Brown. As you then step into your bedoom, the Lodge will cleverly put on the Golf channel during turn-down service at night. Cookies are also part of the nightly service. The bed was very comfortable and I really enjoyed the patio with chairs that overlooked the water. It was all very peaceful and serene. The sitting area in the room was also nice and there was a big desk to work. The ceilings are made of wooden beams and add elevation to the room. I did feel like I was staying in another country and truly loved my stay. Each night around 5pm, a bagpiper marches up the field in front of the patio of the Lodge. You can sit on an Adirondack chair and listen and have an evening cocktail as the sun sets. Dining: There is the Oak Room which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The Colt and Alison is the high end steakhouse serving dinner with a view of the golf greens. We had a fantastic meal here and Chef Danny is very talented. We also enjoyed breakfast and lunch in the Oak Room. Another interesting tidbit I learned is that you can take one of the BMW 750 series that is parked in the front of the Lodge and drive it over to the Cloister and other part of the hotel. The goal is to get you to test drive and this has turned out to be very profitable for this BMW dealer. I did not get a chance to make it to the Cloister and would like to go next time. The staff was amazing and the service everywhere was excellent. There is also a little gift pro shop with golf wear, souvenirs and high end sunglasses and apparel for sale. I highly recommend this resort for a quiet getaway and Southern hospitality.

Had a great stay at this new Hilton property located on St Simon's island…read more Located in a residential neighborhood on a golf course, the resort has a club house, pool, fitness center, golf course, and a multitude of different rooms. Let me start by saying that every employee we met was courteous and helpful from on island recommendations for dining to addressing concerns. We used their remote check in option through our phones and went straight to our room. If you use remote check in, your key goes to your phone via the Hilton app. This can be a little cumbersome bc you will have an interior and exterior door to navigate and they did not like to de-conflict with each other so sometimes it was hard to find the right key. I just went to the front desk and got old school key cards and did not have the issue anymore. Our room was a well apportioned single bedroom with a king bed, screened in porch, wet bar, microwave, refrigerator and Keurig. They provide in shower shampoo, body wash and conditioner. I used it and it smelled good, my wife did not bc the pumps meant she had to pump the shampoo a lot to get enough for her hair. Also, there is no shelving in the walk in shower so she had to sit her razor and other toiletries on the ledge for the door. The bed was comfortable and the AC kept the room cool but bc of the humidity, the room just felt damp and wet. The carpet felt moist when you walked on it. My wife and I both enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch in the morning talking and watching wildlife. It may have been too hot in the August afternoon to do that. We did not get to enjoy the pool bc of the weather but the gym is well equipped and has some items you will not see in a standard hotel gym like Olympic lifting weights and barbells, kettlebells, a battle rope and plyo work ladders. As well as treadmills, cycles, dumbbells and med balls. On-site restaurant Sago was pretty good when we ate there. And is a good option when you don't want to drive. Great option for a weekend getaway but I am concerned about how the property will age if they do not figure out the room humidity thing.

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.

I attended a wedding rehearsal dinner at Brunswick Country Club. The dinner was held on a Friday…read morenight and it appeared the entire club shut down for our private party. The clubhouse opened in 2009, so it's relatively new. The clubhouse has a modern yet traditional design. Modest, elegant, and spacious. We spent our time at the bar and grill and in the main dining room. Both rooms had expansive views of the golf course. From the holes I saw, the golf course looked very flat with not too many trees. The course was originally designed by Donald Ross. Love Golf Design (Davis Love III's company) restored it in 2007. The bar was small and had a large flatscreen TV playing Golf Channel. The dining room and lobby were large and open. Several staff were on hand to handle our group. I'm bad at estimating numbers of people, but I'd venture to guess we had about 40-50 people at the dinner. Dinner was preceded by light hors d'oeuvres and cocktails. Hors d'oeuvres included various deep-fried seafood concoctions involving shrimp and crab. This was fitting since we were at the Golden Isles of Georgia (barrier islands). The dining room tables were covered in white tablecloth and had a sea island theme with fishing nets and seashells. The dinner consisted of both a seated portion and a buffet portion. During the seated portion, we were served dinner rolls, soup (corn bisque with shrimp), and salad. The self-serve buffet portion contained a Southern smorgasbord of goodies: fried chicken, turkey, collard greens, fried okra, mac and cheese, etc. I loved the regional selection. My personal favorite touch was the bottles of Texas Pete Pepper Sauce next to the collard greens. I love this sauce and it makes most Southern green veggies instantly better with its whole green Tabasco peppers and vinegar. Dessert included peach cobbler and vanilla ice cream. Overall, Brunswick Country Club provided fantastic food and service and a classy ambiance. A great time was had by all.

While the store's brand selection is definitively premium, if they don't have what you're looking for, they will make the effort to get it for you. There are lots of places to purchase golf equipment. And there are lots of places where you can get "fitted." If you care about the quality of those experiences, you can't do better than Fitted Fairways.
