Loved hearing the ocean waves while we slept.
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.

Jekyll Trip
Prime location, clean and cozy accommodations. My arrival was scheduled the day after Hurricane Helene tracked thru the region and there was a power outage. Thomas Pickren's text communication was exemplary. He provided me regular updates and allowed me to check-in a day later and out a day later after power was restored. Regards, Ken B

Great condo, great location!
Our stay here was amazing! The property owner has done an amazing job maintaining and renovating the condo. It was very clean and up to date. All appliances and everything worked as expected. We had zero issues. The beds were comfortable and there was more than enough space for our family of 5. The owner was communicative from day one and we had all the information we needed to check in well before hand. Zero complaints, we would highly recommend this condo and would definitely stay here again!

Great townhouse
From the start, everything went smoothly. Shortly after booking, the owner reached out to me to provide info about the townhouse and the island. The townhouse was recently remodeled and was very nice. There is a vanity in the master bedroom, which turned out to come in handy since it's a one bathroom unit. We were able to shave and brush our teeth in it, while the shower was in use. The townhouse was very clean and well kept up. The complex was well maintained and quiet. We didn't get a chance to use the pool, but we took a look at it and it looked very nice. The beach is small on that portion of the island, and disappears at high tide, but is usable most of the day. There is also a wide strip of sand behind the breakwall with chairs, a boardwalk, and a pavilion that you can use. We spent most of the day at the beach. The complex borders agains Driftwood Beach, so we were able to walk there for sunrise. I hadn't been to Jekyll Island in almost 20 years. I liked that there are now some restraunt and shopping choices on the island. I also liked that they didn't turn it into another St. Simons Island. Jekyll is still very quiet and much of the island is natural beauty. Overall, we were very happy with the townhouse, complex, and location. We would definatly stay there again.

Yearly vacation
We have always tried to vacation somewhere different every year. This year, we chose to stay on Jekyll Island. The condo was clean, had a balcony with an ocean view, and was within walking distance of the driftwood beach. The Driftwood Bistro, located on the complex grounds, had good food as well. The island was not crowded, making it great for going to the beach.

Enjoyed our stay!
This place was perfect for our needs while visiting the island. It was clean, and communication with the owner was quick and thorough(although we had to initiate to receive key code/check out instructions). No beach during high tide; no problem for us, but sharing so others are aware if you're looking for a place with beachfront. We enjoyed watching the sunrise from the 2nd floor balcony - beautiful!

Not for elderly
This had nothing to do with the host. We are in our mid-late 70s. The steps are extremely steep. No grab bars at all in shower and my husband had a hard time keeping his balance. The shower floor was very slick. Since I had a back injury, I had to take sponge baths for the entire week. The villa is very private and the downstairs is easy to get to. I would suggest that a half bath be put in downstairs, maybe under the steps or something. The host was in touch with us prior to checking in, and after check out. He seemed nice, although we never met him. We also were very ill with Covid right when we arrived there and I felt rather like Rapunzel, being stuck upstairs with no food or drink. The villa had nice decor and good colors, however, no type of chests or dressers or chairs in bedrooms, so living out of a suitcase is annoying. I would recommend this to a younger couple.

Fantastic Stay
The condo was perfect! We loved the view of the beach from the upstairs balcony and the beautiful tropical courtyard outside the front door. The bedrooms are spacious and the condo was stocked with everything we needed. There were four adults, and we had plenty of room. Our host was one of the best we’ve ever dealt with. I can’t say enough good things about Jekyll and our stay here. We’ll definitely come back.

Unit is an end unit so is extremely quiet. Close access to the boardwalk and the beach. Place is dated but comfortable and adequately stocked. Property manager was super helpful and responsive! VBTS is a great property, closest to the awesome Driftwood Beach. On site restaurant and bar also great and so convenient. Bike rental rates are the best on the island.

Peaceful and relaxing
This condo on the beach was exactly what we needed for our family vacation. It was very quiet and relaxing. From the front door, it is just a short walk to get to the boardwalk and beach. The community pool was also very convenient to use as we used it almost every evening. The amenities within the unit were great and allowed us to prepare many of our own meals and do laundry. We did enjoy the rest Jekyll Island, but it was really nice to be able to retreat to a much quieter part of the island when it was time to wind down and relax. Tommy was an outstanding host, being very communicative and providing any answers to questions we had. Would definitely recommend and we hope to stay there again someday.
