I've had to divert here twice. Both times the service was exceptional. Crew car & hotel room ready before I even had the plane secured for the night. Hangar space was available at a reasonable rate. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Golden Isles now makes KSSI a stop of choice, not just a diversion.

Flew in for lunch on a Sunday -- we were met by a follow-me golf cart after landing. No ramp fee for our short stay. It was a quick walk to Southern Soul BBQ so we didn't ask about a car. A good experience.

Planned a weekend trip there recently with a large group and I travel there quite often. We came in on Friday and I opted to top off my Navajo Chieftain there (even though I didn't need to top it off) and my pilot took the plane back to its home base. Spent over $600 on fuel. When my pilot returned on Sunday to pick us up for the same trip, we didn't need fuel because we had a full load of people and bags. Regardless, They insisted on collecting a "ramp fee" for the pick up. I made the point that I had just purchased over $600 in fuel on the trip down Friday, and the response was that their "policy" was a daily policy regardless of what we did the same weekend. They also tried to collect the fee for a turbo prop twin (nearly double), though the Navajo is an obviously a piston twin. Frankly, these are the types of experiences that make us want to take our business elsewhere.

Was at SSI to get married this past weekend. Upon arrival in Grumman Cheetah we were treated as if we arrived in a Gulfstream V. Very friendly ramp crew that offered to fuel us and they helped with our bags by granting us access to the plane with the rental car. We will be back!

Golden Isles continues to be one of the best FBO's anywhere. We stop there once or twice a year. Highly recommended.

Flew our Comanche to the PGA Tour event this past weekend. The staff and facilities at Golden Isles were first class! Highly recommend. The new concrete ramp is awesome. Great job!

Landed at SSI twice recently. First time in late August when I was being chased by CB's on my way down to Miami from Vermont. The line crew wheeled me to the FBO despite heavy rain and Amanda right away got accommodations and transport to the hotel. This past weekend, we flew in for a day of sight seeing. Great stop once again. We will be back.

Despite being very busy, Golden Isles provided a crew car, map of the area, great recommendations for restaurants, and ran us back and forth to the aircraft. I'd be very pleased to use their services again...

Stopped for a quick lunch on a beautiful day. Staff was outstanding in all respects (including a great suggestion for lunch). Special thanks to Amanda for assisting in locating a missing pair of prescription glasses. My passenger was thoroughly impressed with the support provided by the FBO.

Great stop to stay see the area or just refuel and go. Great pilot's lounge, weather services, and spacious accommodations. Great BBQ place and ocean just a few blocks away. Definitely treated like royalty and will return again to see more of the island.

Fantastic folks and first class operation. We had to divert due to line of storms and ended up stranded on St Simons. The folks at Golden Isles got us a fantastic rate at the Sea Palms, a wonderfully remodeled hotel and lent us the crew car for the night. The kids enjoyed a walk on the beach and we enjoyed the comfortable room. Thanks Golden Isles.

Really nice FBO. Super helpful & friendly STAFF. Reasonable fuel prices. Wanted to highlight the Southern Soul BBQ Restaurant. 4 minute walk from FBO. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but food is terrific!! I'm from Lexington, NC, (home of World Famous LEXINGTON STYLE BBQ), but the pulled pork bbq & the brisket were outstanding. Also, the homemade baked beans & cornbread were terrific! You've got to give it a try.

As usual, a pleasant stop. Courtesy vans available for lunch runs. Not the least expensive gas on the north-south route, but helpful staff, good FBO services, nice surrounding area. Five minutes to the center of town with multiple lodging and dining options.

Golden Isles Aviation is a first rate operation with reasonable fuel prices. While I was there I had a charging issue that turned out to be an easy fix. Hats off to PALMETTO AVIATION REPAIR at SSI. They jumped on the problem and charged a reasonable rate to allow me to get back home on schedule. THANKS KIRK!

Very nice FBO. The staff was extremely friendly and provided a crew car for a trip into town to get food. There are many convenient restaurants, but Barbara Jeans was recommended by the FBO for good seafood. Best crab cakes that I've had in years! Great Experience, I'll be back!
