Turtley Amazing Spring Break

We had the best spring break and we loved how close this condo was to everything we wanted to see and do- Driftwood Beach, biking trails, restaurants, turtle center etc. My 3 big girls age 9-4 loved the bunk room and being able to stay altogether and I loved that they all had separate beds so I didn’t have to hear about who kicked who. The breakfast bar seats were great for the morning and preparing lunches and then we were able to have sit down dinners around the dining room table.. I already have requests to come back again

Cute Villa but not clean and not very well equipped

The villa is in a great location. Beautiful views from the balconies and close to the water. A short drive or bike ride from local restaurants and convenience stores. The beds are comfortable and the condo is bright and cheery

Great location

Very nice unit. We enjoyed our stay. Only complaint would be that the heating system blows the warm making the smaller downstairs room quite stuffy. There was a distinct shortage of good knives and cutting boards. Also, the only teflon coated pan was very scratched up and so not safe to use. A sprucing up of the cookware is really all that’s needed to make this a great unit

Under the Oaks

We love Jekyll Island and this weekend offered lovely fall weather for the Under the Oaks Race! The condo was perfect for our needs and offered a wonderful view of the ocean as we relaxed after the run. Once we were rested up we headed right out the back door and down to Driftwood Beach was a slow stroll.

Villa 279

This was our 2nd time staying in this exact villa, but have been staying at Villas by the Sea each summer for over 30 years. We love this villa due to it's location, view, and the washer and dryer in the unit.

What I wish I would have known

This townhome was cute . It had the perfect amount of beds for us ! Location was great . Short walk between two board walks . Only one of which would let you down to the water due to one being closed . You could definitely see the ocean , even though you aren’t exactly ocean view. I could watch the sunrise from the small couch . The steps up to the room are directly across from the park . The restaurant and the pool were literally just steps away from the townhouse The Villas was a neat place. Lots of trees . A huge shaded pool, not heated for cooler months. FYI But very clean & pretty . Plenty of trash bins all around , laundry room . There were ICE machines scattered about for coolers. I never EVER leave reviews , But I had to. Pics make place look much bigger DATED appliances !! Like from the 80’s / 90’s younger folks may struggle with this . I grew up with similar so it was fine. NO ice maker in fridge . Plastic ice trays are provided Lamps everywhere. NO ceiling FANS ! For the love of crabs BRING YOUR FAN or you WILL buy one !! Especially since the thermostat goes no cooler then 68. PILLOWS - just bring your own! Trust me. The BIG Rm shares bathroom w/ the bunk rm and wash/ dryer are In closet INSIDE BIG RM MASTER is Downstairs In smaller Rm OWNERS: D-stairs shower Hot/Cold is reversed . ADD Fans . Too much furniture . Need better broom. 3 stars on clean, my idea of clean is MUCH different Thankyou for early checkin !!
