Jekyll Island restful beach retreat
On Jekyll Island the ocean breezes are calling…the most beautiful coastal sunset in Georgia wants to say hello!!
Jekyll Island didn’t have to work hard to earn the nickname “Georgia’s Jewel”. As soon as your car crosses over the causeway, you understand why this serene little stretch of sand was the playground of America’s most famous northern industrialist generations ago.
Steeped in a rich history worthy of Hollywood movies, Jekyll Island sits quietly, waiting to welcome weary travelers in need of a calming vacation.
If you seek heart-pounding adventures on you vacations, Jekyll Island is not for you. If you yearn for simple days by the sea…what are you waiting for??
Jekyll Island is unique in that it is the only undeveloped Golden Isle that is accessible by car. Sixty-five percent of the island remains untouched, showcasing the inspiring beauty of what its cluttered, noisy neighbors used to be.
It’s a golfer’s mecca, a naturalist’s dream, a fitness buff’s unimagined outdoor gym.
During your stay at this condo building, you're just a quick walk from Americana Beach. Enjoy features like an outdoor pool, a gym and a water park. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the condo.

2 night stay
We were able to check in a little early which was nice.. the front desk was quick and easy. The unit definitely needs a deep clean, air vents and window seals were filthy. We found chip and poptart crumbs in the kitchen. The floors wiped up dirty. The master bed is not comfortable at all but the other beds were fine. We lost power for a good bit the first night due to a big storm and we’re weren’t really prepared for that being our first night. Overall it was fine..my biggest complaint was the cleanliness. The unit is 2nd story, about 2 miles to the closest beach access. We did ride bikes to/from beach along side of road. Beach access was not accessible but it looked like it was in progress. We walked to driftwood one morning, so that was a bonus. We usually stay at hotels at Jekyll but we needed 3 bedrooms- so this was a change. We did use the pool and laundry facilities. The pool was nice. They provide pool towels at the pool. The washer and dryer were good- you will need quarters. The dryer drys HOT! Basics were provided (trash bags, bar soap, sponge, dish/washer soap, paper towels) it was enough for our 2 night stay. No spices thankfully I brought some! Prior to our stay I contacted the property owner with a question and he responded right away.

Great location, dishes not clean
Most Vrbo I have stayed in had minor kitchen supplies like salt and pepper. This was more like a hotel with a kitchen and than would be nice to know in advance. We had to wash all the pans, glasses etc. before using. The listing had checkout at 12 and the front desk was insisting on 11. Best part was walking distance to Driftwood beach.

Race weekend
We had a good stay. Check in took longer than usual for VRBO because I had to go through their front desk. Then they were saying I had an outstanding balance even though it had been paid much earlier. Generally the owner sends a door code.

First Time at Jekyll Island
This was our first time on Jekyll Island, and found the accommodations and host to be top notch. There were 6 of us, and condo had ample room. The folks at Villas By the Sea were also very helpful. Though we didn't know it when we booked this place, it's very close to Driftwood Beach, which we visited a few times. A good time was had by all.

This was a great place to stay.
The condo was lovely. Beds were comfortable and very well maintained and clean. The area was close to the beach and many beautiful trails and sites to visit.
Our only issue was finding places to eat that did not have a 2+ hour wait, even with a reservation. Stock up on groceries before getting on the island. Groceries are very expensive there and the items they carry are limited.

Weekend of Globe hunting
We stayed here for a weekend with our adult children and their significant others. The property was a great place to stay for 6 people and was very clean and comfortable. The check in process was very easy and the people who worked there were very friendly. There is a great restaurant in the community, Driftwood Bistro, that we visited the first night there because we were already tired from driving. We were also able to rent bikes from the resort our first full day there making it so easy to leave right from the resort bike 27.5 miles and end up back at our resort. The host was friendly and informative but we never needed to bother him during our stay because everything was as expected. Would stay again.

Comfortable accommodations and convenient location on the north end of the island. We are outdoors people so it worked well for us to be next to driftwood beach. Right across from the Driftwood Bistro and pool. Would come back again.

Very comfortable property!
This condo had everything we needed although we couldn’t make the toaster work. We only had to walk a little ways to enjoy the beautiful view. We did, however, find the Villas by the Sea personnel a bit unhelpful. If they are going to handle a property they should be more knowledgeable and definitely more friendly!

Great location to driftwood beach.
Great location to driftwood beach. We spent time there every night searching for sea glass. Easy access to beach to see the sunrise and it did not disappoint! Pool was lovely to sit beside and they have plenty of beach towels to make you comfortable. Loved having the bistro across the lot to have a late dinner several nights. Condo was like the pictures in the listing.
