Driftwood Beach adjacent, off season rate, 20% off week, BEACH FRONT!
Brand new upstairs remodel. View of the Atlantic Ocean from 2nd floor Master Bedroom with Balcony. Located in Villas by the Sea a resort adjacent to the World Famous Driftwood Beach is nestled among sixteen oceanfront oak canopy acres. The property features a bar, business center, fitness center, convention center, pool and our restaurant, Driftwood Bistro. We have complimentary boarding passes for the Emerald Princess Gambling Casino Ship. It normally sails Thursday through Sunday evening. Inquire if you are interested.
Kitchen was well equipped and the openness of the condo was perfect for family togetherness. There were plenty of towels and the beds were very comfortable. The huge pool was just a short walk from the condo. The sunrises were breathtaking.
The property features a view of the ocean from the master bedroom balcony and access to a shared pool. It's about a 20-30 minute walk from both Horton Pond and Driftwood Beach. There is beach access at low tide adjacent to the property. It's on the less developed side of the island, but still only a short drive to the tourism district. Great place to enjoy what Jekyll Island has to offer.
I stayed for 3 nights with my wife and 2 teenage kids and it was great. Nice beachfront property with great balcony ocean view on 2nd floor, comfortable beds, very quiet area of the Villas by the Sea condo complex/resort (which has a terrific restaurant âJekyll and Tideâ less than a 5 minute walk from the complex). And this unit is a short 10-15 minute walk to the famous Driftwood Beach which was awesome. Tommy was very responsive to the few questions that I had.
This property was very nice for our family. The pool area was great and being able to walk to driftwood beach is a plus. Jekyll Island is such a peaceful place. We came for the Turtle Crawl 5K. Enjoyed delicious seafood and yummy frozen yogurt at Beach Village. The drive to the beach to play in the water is very short.
I cannot say enough about the beauty of Jekyll Island!! and staying here was absolutely PERFECT! The location is terrific - close enough to get anywhere on the island easily. Tommy, the host, is fabulous!! He was so easy to communicate with about anything and everything - before we came, while we were there, and even when we were leaving! Unfortunately, we couldn't walk down to the beach right in front of the condo while there, because they are repairing the steps and having issues with the town but walking over to driftwood beach is an easy 5-10-minute walk and so worth it! The pool is large and clean and only a 3-minute walk!! The Georgia Sea Turtle Center is a must see! The Jekyll Island historic tour is fascinating and the biggest surprise of all was the incredible restaurant - Jekyll & Tide restaurant right there at the condo village!!! it is absolutely top notch! I am definitely planning on coming back and really hope I can stay here again!!
This rental was for a significant anniversary which was mentioned initially. Specifically asked about the gym facility listed onsite. Owner did not state that facility was closed due to repairs. Property was listed as beach accessible. Found that the ramps leading from property to beach had been damaged during hurricane last fall so no direct beach access. Owner was not considerate or understanding when we mistakenly misplaced a key card. Shower first evening at residence had no water pressure. This was corrected the following day. Cobwebs found in various locations, including bed and light fixtures. Windows and glass doors were filthy. Would not recommend.
This property had some issues. The floors & top of stairs were dirty. Lots of dust & cobwebs on lights. No beach access because the stairs were damaged & have not been repaired. Worst of all were the bugs in the upstairs of the condo. Flying carpenter ants by the dozens. We kept killing them & they kept coming & crawling all over us, even at night when trying to sleep. We mentioned it to the owner & they just said they were harmless. Tell that to a terrified 5 yr old trying to sleep. They need to hire an exterminator.
Perfect trip. Had kitchen to make dinner. Lots of things to do and see.. beautiful views. Super easy check-in. Owners kept in touch to make sure we were settled.
We loved the island. The place was clean and right on the ocean. Quick beach walk to driftwood beach. The owner checked in on us by text to make sure everything was good and we had everything we needed. Very nice owner.
We enjoyed our stay. The owner was very nice and communication was good. We loved the quiet location and having no one above us. Our overall stay was pleasant, a few things we didn't love. The water pressure in the condo was low and refrigerator was loud at times. The stairwell floor was a bit dirty and the kitchen isn't accommodating for those interested in cooking. However it is still a nice condo with a great location.
Weâve stayed at Villas by the Sea before and this unit was perfect. Has a lovely view from the upstairs balcony. The unit was clean and well maintained. The property has nice amenities and the location is fantastic, beach is private and a short walk to driftwood beach.
Everything was spectacular, great communication and a great location! Quiet end unit but still only a 2 minute walk to the pool or beach crossovers! We'll definitely be back!
