Description:
The Jekyll Island Club Hotel is a very special “remedy for the winter blues” and get away for girlfriends, mothers and daughters, and sweethearts! Step back into the Gilded Era of the Rockefellers, Vanderbilts and J.P. Morgan when you check into what was their private clubhouse, The Jekyll Island Club Hotel. Listed on the National Registry of Historic Places, you will enjoy an unmatched, old world ambiance from your luxurious, period-furnished room to candlelight dinners in the grand dining room. Tour the island’s lush, manicured grounds by trolley or foot and discover how these mega-millionaires influenced and shaped America.
We have included lots of free time to enjoy shopping and dining on Jekyll and St. Simons Island. A trip to downtown Brunswick will reveal Victorian architecture and street names which reflect their historic origins as laid out by General James Oglethorpe over 240 years ago! Wrap up a wonderful day with “Taste, Talk and Classic Movie” at Brunswick’s historic, renovated Ritz Theatre.
Lastly, join award-winning Jekyll Island author Pamela Mueller for a discussion of her newest book about the island. Don’t forget to take time to walk out to a beautiful Jekyll Island beach, unlike those of any other east coast beach destination. Driftwood Beach has been voted one of America’s most romantic beaches!
You may enjoy a round of golf at one of the islands three courses or just curl up with your favorite book in front of one of the many fireplaces in the libraries and expansive verandas. AHHHH!!
