Loved the house! Beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Convenient to golf courses and many restaurants. A very short walk to the beach.

So happy you enjoyed your stay! I agree, the golf courses are convenient, and fun to play! You were great guests, and we hope to host you again in the future.
We enjoyed our week stay at the "Hive." This townhome was in a beautiful neighborhood, close to the ocean. The neighborhood is nice and quiet; you can even hear the waves crash into the rocks on the beach. We traveled with 2 teenagers which both enjoyed having their own room with a bathroom in each, so they didn't have to share. The clubhouse was just a short distance from the front door. Driftwood beach is just down the road. If you wanted to, you could even walk there. The Host was very responsive, even though we never needed anything.

So happy you enjoyed your stay. You’re welcome back anytime!
We were in the area for high school baseball and decided to share a house for the weekend with another family. This home was absolutely PERFECT for us. We checked in very late on Friday night (super easy, showed up and punched in a code to get in the door). The house was super clean, beautifully decorated inside and out, very spacious and comfortable. Everything was exactly as pictured. My husband and I slept in the king sized bed in the downstairs bedroom. The mattress was not the most comfortable for us (we are used to a Sleep Number bed at home, so we are picky!) and as a matter of personal taste we do not like microfiber sheets. Everyone else slept very well and said their beds were comfortable. Again, this was just a matter of taste - I'm sure that others will not be as picky as us. We spent as much of Saturday as possible at the beach area directly adjacent to the house. The tide is up for most of the day, so that was only about an hour and a half. We didn't want to drive to the beach, so we spent the rest of the day at the pool. It was such a calm and relaxing trip. There were several good restaurants nearby. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Just book it, you will not regret it!

Originally from Maryland, I moved to Georgia in 2014. With a BS in Hospitality Management, I love to help our guests have a wonderful visit to the Golden Isles! Our company, with my wife and sister-in-law, also specializes in interior design and helping those who fall in love with this area to relocate here. As a bonus, we also focus on finding investment properties for our clients.
Why they chose this property
We chose this property on Jekyll Island because of the wonderful amenities and proximity to all the wonderful things Jekyll Island has to offer.
What makes this property unique
We focus on luxury...we want our guests to feel spoiled and to feel completely comfortable in our home.
The tide swing in this area is very large. Sometimes 6-8 feet difference between low and high tide. It's amazing to watch throughout the day. If you can't make it down to the beach from our crossover, again you can always get to the beach from many other nearby access points, just a couple of minutes away.
