I like that it has a full bar and restaurant on the property. Love the huge pool and hot tub. Also like the access to the beach. What I didn't know is that the hotel is two hotels in one and depending on who's side you stay on gets what amenities. Since we stayed on the courtyard side we did not get complementary breakfast. Plus we had put in reservations for a king size bedroom with a balcony. We did not get a king bed and they told us that the ground level porch/patio facing the parking lot was the same thing as a balcony Would stay there again but make sure we get on the residency side of the hotel to get the amenities and make sure the room is exactly what we asked for

Disliked: Staff & service
Loved the food, accessible beach, resort prices, requested rooms to be near each other and accessible, but did not get any portion of the request. The staff was very uncaring and did not provide direction even though it was very obvious that there were three members of our party that had mobility challenges.

Nice relaxing stay. Paid for an ocean view room, but if the only way to view the ocean was to contort your body to see past the neighbors partition.....FALSE ADVERTISING.

This was one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed in! Property was unkempt and not updated. Not to mention the bathroom was so disgusting that I had to buy cleaning supplies from a nearby Walmart and clean it. There was no breakfast available and for what I received it was not worth the price by any stretch of the imagination. And if management had at least tried to alleviate my concerns it would have been different but they did not care. Do yourself a favor and chose another location on Jekyll Island.

Do not stay at the CourtYard by Marriott on Jekyl.

Arry, was the guest receptionist who gave a poor reception and impression of this property‼️ He was Smug, Arrogant and not helpful at all. When we went to our room which I believe Arry gave us the worst room because we went through Hotel.com and NOT the property directly, he penalized us. We requested and paid for a room with an ocean view and he gave us the absolute very end room whereby we had a sliver of an ocean view‼️ he stated that was the only room left when check-in was 4P and we arrived approximately 5P. I did not believe him, but there was nothing we could do except see the Manager on duty the following day since, according to Arry, the manager had left for the day. Once in the room, the bed looked unkempt with extremely wrinkled sheets instead of crisp and clean. The following day, I spoke with the Manager on duty who politely listened and gave us a $50 food voucher, however there is a $30 destination fee per day and we were there for three. They have a refresh room service policy that is not effective and when asked to have our linen changed, the house cleaning team made it clear that we placed them in an imposition since they left dirty linen and towels directly in front of our room door. This required me to relocate the dirty laundry down the hall. Unfortunately, no one removed that pile of dirty laundry for 6 hours. I spoke with the housekeeping supervisor, who stated there was a sick call. OUR STAY AND THEIR STAFF WAS DEPLORABLE‼️‼️‼️
Housekeeping placed this dirty laundry in front of our door! I had to move it.

Nice

It was a nice hotel. We enjoyed it. The pool was excellent. The only thing that i really did not like was that when you arrive they give you a paper stating things like when the pool is open etc. It also says under the breakfast section that if you're staying at the Courtyard by Marriott that you can see the starbucks counter during specified hours for ,"a delightful breakfast experience ". When we went to the starbucks counter and inquired ab breakfast, the girl showed us the little breakfast menu so we all got 1 thing from the menu. 4 selections. 2 of which were just breakfast sandwiches, 1 a breakfast burrito and scrambled eggs for my daughter. I don't recall seeing any pricing on the menu and the flyer should've been worded in a way to clarify that breakfast was available to be purchased at the starbucks counter because the way it was stated I had no idea that it was not free. It was $70. I paid for it & it tasted good.. but i do feel i was decieved into getting breakfast there. I just did not want to say nevermind once we ordered.. overall it was a good experience. The only other thing i really did not like was concerning the balcony with a beachview. While fine from the actual small balcony, the beach is not visible from any place inside the room and the beds are against a wall so that you have the least view of what's outside from in bed. My mother is in a wheelchair and I was hoping she could see something nice from the bed but no luck there. Was not bad though

Front desk were not friendly, it was like they tolerated you. Had seen some guest ask guy at desk for towels and he turned around and got them out of the cabinet. Next day when a woman was at the desk and we ask for towels she told us to go to a room near the pool. She said if they did not have towels there that she would have to go to the basement.
