Had not stayed at Ocenside for some time. Last visit seveal years ago was not pleasant because room was a bit "frumpy" for the money even though every room is right on the beautiful Georgia beach. Since many of the hotels have been torn down (Buccaneer, Holiday Inn, etc.) Idecided to give Oceanside anothe chance and very glad I did.... more

I've read all the other reviews. I think it's fair to say that unhappy customers will want to complain (get revenge) while happy customers tend not to report anything. We've enjoyed our stays in the past, and will be back next month. The hotel is not brand-new, and suffers from age. Whether or not you enjoy this hotel may depend... more

I stayed at the Oceanside Inn & Suites for all of about 5 hours--including an "upgrade" request--before my sister and I decided to leave to get another hotel. One of the men working on the MOtel's renovations walked into our room unannounced and uninvited because he was convinced it shouldn't be occupied because it was "on [their] list to have... more

Oceanside Inn and Suites has just undergone some substantial remodeling of it's guest rooms. Those improvements are now mostly complete. We offer our most humble apologies for the intrusion on this guest's privacy by one of our workers during that time of progress. Our guest's security is a high priority for Oceanside. We regret that a manager was not contacted,...

My husband and I were thoroughly happy with our choice to spend our vacation stay at the Oceanside Inn & Suites. Their staff was very inviting, and very knowledgeable about events and things to do on Jekyll Island. Our room very very clean, and we had a great view of the ocean. My children really enjoyed the pool during our... more

Driving in to Oceanside we were treated to one of the most spectacular views from our car. The road travels right along the beach for about a mile. Very friendly and hospitable staff! Our room was clean and comfortable, but the hotel has long exterior corridors, small baths that could use an update. Any shortcomings with the age of the... more

As almost everyone else has stated on this site (and I'm sorry I didn't go here prior to booking) this hotel is not as it seems. While the ammenities they list might exist (pool, internet (IN THE LOBBY!), coffee maker etc) they are not in a condition or quality that you are led to believe. Our carpet was sticky and... more

My husband and son and I stayed at the hotel for the 4th of July, and I must say we had a great time. Actually I could say better than expected...I was a little leery of staying at a beach-front hotel on the 4th of July with my young son, but there were no rambunctious party'ers, and everyone was super... more

I stayed at this place many years ago and it was another hotel chain. Well after all those years it still has not changed except the high price of the rooms. Pets are allowed to stay in the rooms so guess what the carpet has stains everywhere, my toilet would not flush till the third time running and the air... more

I stayed here with my family while I attended a conference. We chose this motel because it was beachfront. This motel is very old and needs a major renovation. Our bathroom sink backed up and maintenance couldn't fix so we had to change rooms. (What an incovenience!) We killed numerous roaches on the wall. The smoke detector started beeping so... more

Jason Smith, Manager

We greatly appreciate the feedback received from our valued guests at Oceanside Inn and Suites. Though our facility lacks some of the modern day conveniences and ambiance of our modern competitors, Oceanside is typical of all of Jekyll's 40 to 50 year old hotels, and strongly appeals to most visitors searching for casual and economical oceanfront accommodations in our state...

Just a warning if you do stay here, don't stay in a room near the flag pole. My husband and I were awaken by the wind blowing the metal on the cord against the flag pole. All we heard was TING TING TING TING. I called the front desk at 4:30 am and the man said he would have security... more
