THE COTTAGES BEACH ACCESS:
The Cottages beach is approximately 2000 linear feet and has a dune area and seawall that runs the length of the Cottages oceanfront property. There are 3 dune crossovers to the sand area landside of the seawall that are always accessible, and that area can be used for recreational purposes. The access to the beach over the seawall is centrally located at the pool & clubhouse. At high tide, the water is at the seawall. The tides change every 6 hours from low to high tide. A tide chart will help you plan your beach time. The nearest beach park with ocean access all day is Oceanview Beach Park, appx 2 miles south just past the Holiday Inn. You may view all Jekyll Beaches by visiting the Jekyll Island website under the Beaches tab.

Annual beach trip

The house is very nice, plenty of towels and everything we needed. The beach was a close walk but was little disappointing due to lack of actual beach, especially during high tide. Overall we enjoyed the quiet of jekyll Island.

Great Time in Jekyll

Couldn't be happier with the accommodations at the Cottages. Very nice updated interior, multiple beach access and the pool were awesome. Love coming to Jekyll and don't think we could stay anywhere else.

Fantastic family time

Our family enjoyed the home immensely! It was very roomy, clean, and the kitchen was well stocked. We stayed in Garden Cottage 8 , which has a view of ocean from upper screened deck, and it is just a few steps from the beach . We would definitely stay at this property again!

Luxury Townhouse just steps from the beach.

We loved this high quality townhouse thats close to the beach and a great pool. Jekyll Island is well suited to biking so the cruiser bikes that come with the place are a great feature. We also liked how the area is not as crowded as other destinations like OBX.

Beach Getaway on Jekyll

We had a great stay at The Cottages on Jekyll Island. The home was perfectly located across from the beach access with a view of the ocean. Very comfortable, well appointed kitchen and we loved sitting in the screened in porch. Super fast wifi throughout the house. The community pool was quiet and had plenty of chairs/umbrellas. Thanks for a fantastic trip!

Tranquility

This property was exactly as advertised online. The neighborhood was so quiet, peaceful and friendly. The cottage is perfect for a family or a couples get-away. The upstairs balcony offers an amazing view of the sunrise. The trail leading to the beach is just a few steps away. This place was just what I needed for a quiet birthday weekend.

Wonderful

This was our first trip to Jekyll Island and this house was perfect for us. We had 5 teens and 1 preteen. There was plenty of room for everyone. The second bedroom upstairs actually had a twin bunk bed with trundle and twin bed with trundle. The little neighborhood was perfect to walk around and for all of us to walk to the pool.

A spacious and gracious home away from home

Wonderful stay on this magical island! The cottage was so well appointed and comfortable, the neighbors were quiet but friendly. Many great memories made here. I especially loved enjoying breakfast together on the lower porch each morning, working on puzzles on the big coffee table with the children during “quiet time” (we really appreciated the puzzles and toys- so thoughtful!) and sitting on the upper porch and watching the ocean in the early morning, while I drank coffee before the rest of the family woke. It’s a lovely view. Thanks for everything- we’ll be back!

Property Manager should lose license

Terrific home. Comfortable layout and really homey. Highly recommend the home. Compliments to the owners. BUT, the property manager put my wife and I in an unsafe situation that must be addressed. Long story that deserves direct communication with owners of the property and VRBO. I won’t go into the story in full but this property manager (Parker-Kaufman Realtors) directed us to the wrong house at check in, let us in, where we spent the night and was told the next day we were in the wrong house. Their directions, communication, and response was absolutely inadequate and unprofessional. Parker-Kaufman realtors should be reprimanded and fired from managing this property. Safety is primary and they put my wife and I in an unsafe situation.
