Whether you're heading to the mountains, the coast, or one of Georgia’s vibrant cities, I’ve found there’s a stay to match every kind of trip. These resorts and hotels in Georgia offer Southern hospitality, scenic surroundings, and relaxing amenities that turned my visits into something special. Personally, I’m all about resorts with spas and pools—especially during the summer when I just want to unwind in the sunshine. In the fall, I love heading to the mountains to hike and take in the foliage. If you're looking for a trip that blends comfort with outdoor beauty, I can’t recommend it enough.

Places I Think You’ll Love

  • Elegant resorts in the Blue Ridge Mountains – I’ve stayed at a few tucked-away spots up here, and they always deliver with stunning views, spa days, and easy access to trails.
  • Historic hotels in Savannah’s charming downtown – I’ve wandered cobblestone streets and come back to classic inns with balconies and courtyards. If you love character and charm, Savannah is your spot.
  • Beachfront escapes on St. Simons and Jekyll Island – These barrier islands are full of Southern coastal magic. I’ve stayed right on the sand and listened to the waves from my porch—pure bliss.
  • Modern luxury stays in the heart of Atlanta – When I want a city vibe with plush comfort, Atlanta’s hotels never disappoint. You’ll find rooftop bars, sleek spas, and amazing dining steps away.
  • Family-friendly lodges with pools, golf, and kid-friendly fun – I’ve visited a few with my extended family, and there’s always something for everyone—from lazy pool days to mini golf and nature walks.
