Invited and Delighted – It’s a Family Affair
~Or a Romantic Retreat

King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort on the Atlantic Ocean

Only a two hour drive from St. Augustine, run away to a Georgia island that will take your breath away. Expansive vistas along a 5-mile causeway leading to St. Simons Island from the mainland will compel you to roll down the windows and inhale the saltwater marshes; exhale the stresses of life. Drive under massive live oaks creating canopied tunnels that Eugenia Price immortalized as the setting for many of her romantic novels. When you arrive at The King and Prince Hotel that oozes Southern hospitality, you might feel like a kid again on your first beach vacation


A member of Historic Hotels of America, The King and Prince has hosted dignitaries and celebrities for 75+ years when it was a retreat for the ‘rich and famous’. There are numerous lodging options (14 styles of rooms, suites, cottages or villas). For romance, choose a Cabana Room, in the historic center of this Mediterranean beauty; it’s perfect for a quiet getaway with a large beautifully decorated bedroom, cozy sitting room and one smaller step down to an oceanfront verandah. Uber comfort is important when it’s a ‘romantic’ getaway. The peaceful blues/yellows and tons of extra pillows are all you need to let the cares of the world drift away. For a family affair, select a 2-bedroom villa with oceanfront balcony, 2 baths and full kitchen. (room photo available)


If you visit for a day, take a stroll around the Hotel and enjoy lunch or dinner in the only oceanfront restaurants on the island. Featuring Southern Coastal Cuisine, tour The Delegal Dining Room with historic stained glass windows that depict the Island’s history. Through the decades, contemporary additions to the King and Prince maintain the same historic feeling ~ from the original building of rooms and suites ~ to the pristine indoor pool and four outdoor swimming pools. Front desk staff and lobby concierge are ready to make any stay wonderful, arranging a sunset cruise, kayaking, bicycles to explore the island or directions to the famous St. Simons Lighthouse. (Delegal Dining Room photo available)


If you visit for an overnight, there is no hurry to catch it all. Perhaps a ride on The Lighthouse Trolley can begin your island exploration. Making stops along the island to specialty shops in The Village or Sea Island Shops where there are numerous art & antique galleries, boutique clothing stores and restaurants – the trolley continues to Christ Church, Fort Frederica and stops throughout St. Simons Island with historic markers dating to the 1600’s.

Return to the Hotel and indulge at the Royal Treatment Cottage. With a smorgasbord of revitalizing services, choose a treatment where “the mind and body can relax”. They offer very individualized attention that might include Aromatherapy, Reflexology, Swedish or Side-by-Side massage for couples.


Any visit to St. Simons Island must include driving along 16-mile Frederica Road, which begins at the south end pier and Village – culminating at the north end and the King and Prince Golf Course at Hampton Plantation. Resort guests and day trip visitors can enjoy a spectacular day of golf on a course that is owned by the Resort. Renowned for its ancient forests, vast salt marshes and four spectacular signature holes that are gently carved from small coastal marsh ‘islands’, the course bends around towering oaks, across lakes and lagoons. Lunch at the clubhouse is open to the public too (365 days a year). Their innovative 3-D graphic transports viewers to each of 18 holes via a hole-by-hole flyover. (golf course photo available)

Hotel guests often visit with a list of ‘must do’s on the island’ while visiting. It’s a great idea to be an organized traveler and maximize vacation time but the Resort has done some of the work for you:
