Since 1928, The Cloister has been a beloved destination for families and outdoor lovers, situated on Sea Island, a private retreat also home to other Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star properties like The Spa at Sea Island, the Georgian Room restaurant, and The Lodge. What sets The Cloister apart is its serene coastal Georgia location, stunning Spanish Revival architecture, and exceptional amenities.

Designed by renowned architect Addison Mizner, who famously developed Palm Beach, the original Five-Star hotel showcases charming Mediterranean elements such as Turkish rugs and wood beam ceilings throughout its rooms. The resort offers a range of dining options, from a relaxed raw bar and grill specializing in oysters and cocktails after a day at the beach, to the upscale Georgian Room, where guests can enjoy Southern-inspired fine dining in a grand and formal setting.
