My sons and I absolutely loved this villa. We had plenty of space. Everything was very clean and well maintained. The villa felt very comfortable and inviting! The realty company was easy to work with and did very well with communicating. The proximity of this villa to the pool was very helpful with determining exactly when the best times to swim were. We are definitely looking forward to next year's stay at Villas by the Sea and if this villa is available during our trip next year, I'd definitely rent it again!!
Excelllent. Never did see the Property Mgr. Probably my fault. I left the key in the condo. It's not really a negative, because, usually the only reason you see the mgr, is if there's a negative.
Property location was perfect! The unit was just as described - we really felt as if we were on vacation as soon as we walked through the door! We were able to walk to Driftwood Beach (which need to be done at both tide levels), and we were able to bike to some great locations. Bike rentals were on site, which was a great plus for us. The restaurant was closed for renovation during our visit, which was unfortunate, but allowed us to seek out some other great spots to eat. One suggestion: get a Keurig. And a suggestion for others planning to stay anywhere on Jeykll Island - stop for groceries before you get there. That will save you lots of money (and time). All in all - we will definitely return to this unit.
We came for a weekend convention. The condo was a short bike ride to a beautiful dock with a gorgeous marsh trail. Great bird watching! The condo was clean and well stocked. The bed is not a Queen- small disappointment but an overall great stay!
The villa is great and we would stay again. We went there for our 15th anniversary. Unrelated to the villa itself, we arrived Sep 25 and Hurricane Helene decided to stay with us. We had no power almost all of our stay, gas stations, restaurants, grocery stores almost all closed. We had nightly curfews, and daily shelter in place. No air con, hot water, lights etc. Our only power was our Jeep to charge the cell phones, but that was limited by gas. Anyway, Jekyll Island is amazing. Driftwood Beach is a sanctuary and was in very close walking distance to this villa. We ended up cooking on grills with the little food we did have. A shout out to Striplings and Walmart groceries for being open.
The unit was super clean. It had everything that we needed for a weekend getaway. The pool is right out the sliding glass door. Restaurant was a 2 minute walk. Highly recommended. We will be back again.
First impression of the Villas were great and that impression lasted the entire stay. Villa was beautiful and well kept up. Villa was clean and everything worked as it should. Only thing I wish was different is that keys could be left in the Villa even though office was on the way off the island, it still added an extra step to a long road trip home. Other than that I have nothing negative to say. The family and I will absolutely return.
Lovely but breezy weather, we participated in a fundraiser for the turtle rehab center on the island. Four days of relaxation. We visited the historic district and the Village restaurants and shops and enjoyed a little beach time. Our VRBO was lovely and comfortable. Our only gripe was the living room TV, we prefer to be able to watch regular networks rather than all the specials; thank goodness tv in the bedroom allowed us to watch current news and programs. We will be back!
Our villa stay on Jekyll Island was wonderful. We loved the location close to the beach. We also loved the bike paths around the island. Our villa was clean and had everything we needed including a work station for a little remote working. We would love to come back!
Always enjoy our stays at the Villa's. Unit was well kept, clean and comfy.
Close to the boardwalk and beach.
Queen bed was our only complaint. Noisy and the 6 inch foam pad on top of the mattress made it feel like (sleeping on a banana).
A new bed in this unit would make a world of difference.
Great condo. Looks out over the pool. Nice and clean inside. Bed is terrible. Lots of noise when you move around. Too soft. Huge sag in the middle. Had to sleep on the couch for the 3 nights.
