My entire family was happy here! The place was immaculate and beautifully decorated. They had a lot of things that don’t always come in a beach rental- more like a hotel. Sugar, coffee filters, napkins, toilet paper and soaps. Our unit was more than enough space for a family of 5 to be comfortable. Being right on the pool was a nice perk too! Very quiet despite being poolside. We loved it. I did have a question about the AC -but turned out to be me not knowing how to adjust the thermostat. The property manager was almost immediately responsive! Very nice customer service.

Fabulous location with pool and ocean views. Was unhappy with bedding and Tad went out of his way to improve the situation. Jeckyll Island is beautiful! I would definitely rent in this complex again.

Great location near pool

My family of 5 loved our stay at this Cottage which was conveniently located near the pool/beach access. Kitchen had everything we needed. Cottage is clean and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the supplied puzzles and games and Roku TV. Had several fun movie family nights.

Fall Break 2024

Property was very clean, nicely appointed and in line with the photos provided on VRBO. We were a little disappointed the beach wasn't accessible with the stairs during high-tides, but overall had a great time!

The condo was Amazing

This condo could not have been located in any better place. Steps away from the pool and club house. The condo itself was amazing with every amenity. Beautifully decorated and super clean. If I could sell my house and live here I would. Balcony for every bedroom and a BBQ gas grill to boot. Absolutely loved this place.

Long Weekend with friends

Property was very clean and perfect for accommodating our needs which was two couples wanting to enjoy what Jekyll Island offers. However, the property management company communication is disconnected from The Verbo site which was a bit confusing since we normally rely on Verbo to keep track of our payments and due dates.

Spacious & Beautiful!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, it was a great stay. We really love the spacious living spaces and the beautiful patio and courtyard. One huge problem of the stay was the pool—it was cloudy & gross the whole week with trash (like flossers) laying at the edge of the pool for days with no one cleaning. For the specific unit, the big miss was the coffee pot—it took 30 minutes to run a pot of coffee one tiny drop at a time, and the slow drip rate made the coffee grounds spill over (even when we tried only running a half pot at a time). The other thing I wish is that there were more washcloths. There was only one per person which meant we had to wash washcloths every single day. This isn’t a big deal like the coffee pot, but it would be nice to have extra washcloths available.

Management very responsive

This is our second year I this specific unit and third year at this resort. It’s a great location convenient to the pool. We had a great week. The AC stopped cooling on Thursday— called mgmt and they sent repairman out within a couple hours. They couldn’t find a problem and left. Got home that night to AC still not cooling and a 79 degree house. Called mgmt again and sent out another repairman that got there at 10pm to find a belt not working. Appreciate them coming out so late but wish they’d found the problem the first time. Cleaning team needs to pay closer attention under furniture. Just know that due to the nature of the island and it’s tides, you won’t get much beach time at the resort, but the public beach is a short drive away. Overall, everything was good and we’ll be back!

Great location and amenities

Couldn’t have asked for a better location on the property. Just steps to the pool and beach access— perfect with our small children. It was one of the best stocked kitchens I’ve ever had in a rental and had everything we needed to cook. A few things that should be attended to, but didn’t affect our overall opinion (we loved it and will be back!). (1) The sheets in the master bedroom fit poorly and wouldn’t stay on the bed. The bed/mattress needs deep pocket sheets to keep you from waking up on the plastic waterproof mattress cover. (2) The light in the fridge needs to be replaced. 9 times out of 10 it was flickering or out in freezer and fridge. (3) Being so close to the pool we had a problem a couple of nights with teenagers swimming and being loud till after 10pm. (4) Just be aware that you’ll end up paying more than the price quoted on VRBO when you pay through the property manager’s site.

Feels like Home!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is enjoyable year after year. We have space to spread out and space to come together for meals, games, and even music on the patio. It's convenient to the pool, beach access, and bike paths. It's also just a beach walk away from Driftwood Beach.

Amazing family get away

Amazing property and location! We thoroughly enjoyed our family vacation on Jekyll Island. This was the perfect townhouse with plenty of space for our family. Very clean and well kept. Our only complaint would be that the sheets need to be replaced. They were all beaded up and rough. But overall we loved it and would stay again!

Beautiful community and great location

This community is great. The pool was a good size for the number of guests at the pool each day. The unit is very conveniently located next to the pool and clubhouse. The layout of the unit was perfect for what we needed. The beds were a little hard and there were extra pillows in the closet but no extra pillow cases. My husband had to use some undershirts as pillow cases so that he could sleep with 2 pillows. Everything was as listed and would stay here again. We go to Jekyll each year so this is something we knew, but if you do not go often, you need to be sure to check the timing of the tides. At this property the ocean is not accessible near and during high tide.
