3,000 Acres of Private Coastal Wilderness

Not every coastline deserves to be this untouched.

Little St Simons Island is a 3,000-acre private island retreat on Georgia's Golden Isles — where wild beaches meet curated comfort and the only thing rushing by is the tide.

The Experience

A private island
without the
crowds.

Little St Simons Island isn't just a place to stay — it's a place to disconnect from the ordinary and reconnect with something far more rare: space, silence, and the uncompromising beauty of the Atlantic coast.

For over four decades, we've welcomed guests who understand that the luxury of a private island isn't measured in thread counts or amenities (though we have plenty of both). It's measured in the absence of everything else — no crowds, no traffic, no rush. Just you, the marsh, and the endless horizon.

Wildlife
Osprey, dolphins, sea turtles, and 200+ bird species call this island home year-round.
Cottages
Charming, thoughtfully appointed cottages set among live oaks and sea oats.
Dining
Farm-to-table coastal cuisine prepared fresh with local ingredients.
Access
Seaplane from Jacksonville or charter boat — the journey is part of the escape.

The Island

A place that
chose you

Little St Simons Island isn't developed for mass tourism. It was preserved — deliberately, carefully, and with a deep respect for the ecosystem that makes it extraordinary.

Nine miles of undeveloped beach. Salt marshes that stretch to the horizon. Live oak canopies draped in Spanish moss. And a commitment to sustainability that guides every decision we make, from how we manage waste to how we welcome you.

The result is an experience that feels less like a vacation and more like coming home to a place you've never been — but always knew existed.
