The venerable establishment with an 80-year history of excellence is among the most honored accommodations in the world. Listing out the accrued accolades of distinction received by Sea Island over the years would include many of the travel industry's highly regarded publications, such as Condé Nast Traveler, Travel + Leisure, Mobil Travel Guide, Golf Digest, and numerous others. The fabulous family-operated institution's pedigree is recognized by so many that an award in recognition for across-the-board achievements in hospitality could be its namesake. President Bush chose it to host the 2004 G8 Summit of World Leaders. What better validation of the resort's overall greatness could be extended?

Sea Island offers four distinct presences with the Cloister, the Cottages, the Lodge at Sea Island and the Lodge at Cabin Bluff.

The Lodge at Sea Island features 40 guestrooms and suites that overlook either the Plantation Golf Course or the Atlantic Ocean. Along with deriving the benefits and perks of the Cloister, a personal butler also is on duty to ensure appropriate pampering around the clock. The Lodge at Cabin Bluff has a main lodge and eight cabins, There also is a coastal 50,000-acre game preserve located an hour away from Sea Island.

Sea Island has three championship golf courses, clay tennis courts, a full-spa and fitness club, and three swimming pools.
