Hotels

St. Simons Island is known for their lovely condo hotels and boutique hotels and the prices will be lower in April than they will be once the tourist season gets underway in May. However, there are also several reasonably priced chain hotels on the island, and even more budget-friendly options a short distance away in downtown Brunswick.
