World-renowned Georgia resort sweeps four five-star awards for 13th consecutive year.
Sea Island
Since 1928, Sea Island has been known as an exceptional destination appealing to those who appreciate gracious service and heartfelt hospitality. With four Forbes Five-Star experiences – The Cloister at Sea Island, The Lodge at Sea Island, The Spa at Sea Island, and the Georgian Room restaurant – Sea Island entices families, outdoor enthusiasts, and those simply wanting to refresh. It is the only resort in the world to have received four Forbes Five-Star awards for 13 consecutive years. As the only U.S. resort to host a G-8 Summit of world leaders, Sea Island provides exceptional settings and service for conferences
and executive retreats.
Located on the southeastern coast of Georgia, Sea Island features five miles of private beach, a Beach Club, tennis center, fishing, Shooting School, and nature and children’s programs, as well as three championship golf courses, including Seaside and Plantation, home of the PGA TOUR’s RSM Classic. Located on St. Simons Island, The Inn at Sea Island offers casual accommodations with access to many Sea Island amenities. Broadfield, a Sea Island Sporting Club and Lodge, offers seasonal hunting and fishing opportunities.
Enhancements recently debuting at The Lodge include six new cottages, an oceanfront pool, pool house, and an 18-hole putting course, called Speedway. Early 2019 brought an all-new, 17,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art Golf Performance Center, and October brought the reopening of Plantation Course, completely redesigned by local residents Davis and Mark Love of Love Golf Design. The four-bedroom King Cottage, with 4,200 square feet, private hitting bay, catering kitchen, and views of the sea debuted in November 2019.
Those seeking adventures in the spirit of the American west may choose to visit The Broadmoor, the other member of the Sea Island family. Opened in 1918 and situated at the gateway to the Colorado Rocky Mountains in Colorado Springs, The Broadmoor is the longest consecutive winner of the Forbes Five-Star and AAA Five-Diamond awards. Like Sea Island, the resort offers guests a unique way to experience one of the country’s most beautiful settings, and is known for its history, tradition, and service excellence.
