The Westin Jekyll Island is one of the most beautiful and accommodating resorts that you'll ever stay at. The island is very isolated which is nice if you're looking for a less crowed area. We arrived and was checked in immediately. Customer service was really great except at checkout. The Westin is located right on the beach. Ensure that you bring comfortable clothing. The Reserves restaurant isn't bad at all. Quite expensive but hey, you get what you pay for there. If you want more attractions, go to St.Simon Island, which is only a 15-20 minute drive from Jekyll. We climb the lighthouse at SSI and it was awesome once we got to the top. It's free if you're military. Upon entering Jekyll, you'll have to pay a $6 toll just to get onto Jekyll Island so be sure to have cash or a credit card. Upon checking out was my issue. Ensure you read the bottom of your receipt. They will do an authorization charge for nearly double the amount they charge you for staying there, so again, make you read your checkout receipt. The gentleman checking us out didn't even mentioned it. Besides the lack of communication, this place is awesome for lovers and couples that just want to get away for the weekend. Awesome beach to walk on even barefooted. Get a oceanfront view room and you won't be disappointed! If you get the bellman Paul, you're in for a treat. Vallet service is $15 a day if you want to be lazy for your stay there. The parking lot is right there so I choose to walk instead of paying. The gift shops are great. Everything you need for your stay is on that island. Enjoy!!!!!
