The Lodge at Sea Island

The ultimate golf lover's getaway
VERIFIED LUXURY
Generations of privileged travelers have made Sea Island their top vacation destination. Created in the spirit of an English manor, The Lodge at Sea Island features stunning waterfront views, three championship golf courses and a world-renowned Golf Performance Center.

The main lodge offers 43 guestrooms and suites, all styled with hardwood floors, exposed beam ceilings, and private balconies that overlook the rolling fairways of the Plantation Golf Course, St. Simons Sound or the Atlantic Ocean.

Seven oceanfront cottages provide a golf-in, golf-out experience and offer extra space with adjoining living rooms. In 2026, two Lodge Residences were added to provide even more space, complete with residential comforts such as five bedrooms, chef’s kitchens and private heated pools.

The hotel's sister property, the Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Cloister at Sea Island, is nearby and provides additional dining choices, the Five-Star Spa at Sea Island and access to the superb Sea Island Beach Club.

Our Inspector's Highlights
  • Each room at the luxury hotel comes with a butler who is able to do almost anything for you (within reason) from pressing your shirts and shining your shoes to making you a midnight snack.
  • Perched right on the Atlantic Ocean, the Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star hotel offers picturesque views from its rooms, veranda and plush lawn.
  • With its proximity to the impeccably manicured courses at the Golf Club at Sea Island, you’ll enjoy world-class play in an unmatched, oceanside setting.
  • The style of the hotel reminds us of an old-school country club. The building itself exudes a grand and historic feel, and once inside, you’ll be treated to elegant touches such as hardwood floors, dark wood trim, antiques, oriental rugs and overstuffed chairs.
  • The Lodge at Sea Island oozes romance with plenty of snuggle-worthy spots, including the wood-burning fireplaces, elegant terraces and plush back lawn complete with lounge chairs overlooking the fairway and the ocean beyond.
Things to Know
  • Each evening here, a bagpiper strolls down to the shoreline just before sunset to serenade guests with some traditional tunes.
  • PGA TOUR makes an annual stop in November during the RSM Classic, which is hosted by Davis Love III and played on the Seaside and Plantation courses.
  • The Sea Island Golf Performance Center, located at The Lodge, provides PGA TOUR-level training for everyone, from beginners to professionals, with experts in all disciplines, all under one roof.
  • The guests here dress the part of country club chic. Everywhere you look, you’ll spot guests dressed in their best, so you’ll want to follow suit.
  • This luxurious Southern retreat knows how to do golf and romance, but it can also keep tiny travelers entertained for days. From tennis and archery lessons to fishing charters and kid-focused experiences, this Five-Star resort creates fun in the sun for visitors of every age.
The Rooms
  • The accommodations at the Lodge at Sea Island are incredibly spacious. Regular rooms offer up 700 square feet of space, while the suites let you spread out in 1,000 square feet. If that still isn't enough room, the King Cottage, a 4,200-square-foot unit with four bedrooms, four baths, a catering kitchen and its own state-of-the-art hitting bay, should do the trick.
  • No matter which one you stay in, you’ll be treated to classic décor made up of hardwood floors, oriental rugs, exposed wood ceilings and marble countertops in the bathrooms.
  • The bathrooms feature marble baths with deep-soaking tubs and rain head showers, as well as a spacious double vanity.
  • Seven Lodge cottages add an additional 14 ocean-facing rooms to the luxurious property. Five of the accommodations offer two bedrooms, while the largest features four, but all include local art, hardwood floors, marble bathrooms and spectacular vistas. 
The Restaurants
  • The Oak Room is the more casual of the hotel’s two restaurants, with the look and feel of a high-class English pub complete with leather ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace.
  • Chow down on dishes such as the steak Caesar salad or the award-winning shrimp and grits, and then complement your meal with one of the Oak Room's many beers on tap, a single-malt scotch or even a cigar from its temperature-controlled humidor.
  • The elegant Colt & Alison features leather chairs, cozy banquettes and a wood-burning fireplace, as well as panoramic views of the 18th hole of the Plantation golf course that's just outside.
  • Enjoy table-side specialties at Colt & Alison, prepared with locally sourced ingredients.
