Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Jekyll Island

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was good and it varied morning to morning. Unless you are on the 2nd floor there is not a view of the water. The beech is through a walkway and did not see anyone swimming. Was very dark to a accommodate turtle hatching-which was cool! Nice little kitchenette, well stocked."

The Westin Jekyll Island Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent
