Reached by causeway from St. Simons island, The Cloister is an
internationally acclaimed, Five-Star, Five-Diamond resort. Though much of Sea
Island is residential, island life centers very much around The Cloister,
honored as one of the world's great hotels. The Cloister was established in the
1920's by industrialist Howard E. Coffin, noted as the inventor of the Hudson
automobile.
Since the '20's, the origins of Sea Island Company
have grown to include the Sea Island Golf Club on St. Simons Island, the Beach
Club, a world-class ocean front spa, The Cloister Racquet Club, large conference
center and the St. Simons Island Club. Horseback riding, fine dining and
numerous cultural and culinary events are among the other activities available
to Island Residents and guests at this distinguished resort.
