Once again, I was very pleased with my stay at the Oceanside Inn and Suites. Yes, the place is an older facility. I'll take that any day over a high rise. Yes, there are sand spurs in the grass...so walk on the beach with your dog. There are miles and miles of it. You can walk on grass anywhere. You only get to walk on an ocean beach in very limited places. Yes, it is dark at night. But, you know what? You can actually see the stars at night. I'm GLAD this place doesn't use so many chemicals that the grass can't seed (sand spurs). I'm glad the lack of night lights encourage sea turtles to successfully nest. I'm glad a ritzier company has not stolen a two story motel type place and replaced it with a high rise. Someday soon it probably will. Until then, my dogs and I are committed to return over and over again to the Oceanside.
Room Tip: Upstairs mini suites have private patios and flow thru air when both front and patio doors are open...

Dear darasaluki,
Thanks for your great post about Oceanside Inn and Suites. It is clear that you like things the way they are on Jekyll Island. Many would agree with you. In the mean time, we are going to keep making things better at Oceanside, as we invest every dollar we make, right back into the business!
We'll look forward to seeing you again next year!
Regards,
Jason Smith
General Manager
