The condo is beautifully decorated and the view is great. We were very comfortable in the unit and had excellent communication and fine service from the management.
Our stay here was great! The unit was so nice and convenient to everything we wanted to do. It was decorated so cute and had all the necessities to make the stay so easy. It was clean and comfortable. Would love to return.
I wish there was a better arrangement for laundry. Maybe a token system that you get a certain allotment upon checking and can purchase more at the lobby.
We enjoyed our stay at Villas by the Sea on Jekyll Island. The unit had everything we needed for our stay, and was just a short walk to Driftwood Beach, which we enjoyed immensely! We're up for a return toJekyll.
We loved our stay! Great location near driftwood beach where our grandson and his bride were married. Our three daughters had ocean front condos also, and we were all close to each other! Bathroom was very small, but for two people it was workable.
Thank you for your review. We hope to see you again soon!

This was perfect for our anniversary weekend! It was the perfect size for 2 people. The view was beautiful and it was so easy to walk to the beach. Everything was well maintained and clean!
The villa was nice - bathroom was a bit small, but appliances were modern and the furniture was clean and comfortable. We would be happy to stay there again!The only real issue had absolutely nothing to do with the villa itself - but the beach access walkways at Villa by the Sea were all closed off due to unrepaired damage from Hurricane Helene. We look forward to staying at VBTS next year and hope it is fixed by then!

We're so happy you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for choosing Parker-Kaufman for your Jekyll Island vacation!
This was a nice mini-condo, suitable for a couple or family with small children. It was clean and had good amount of kitchen supplies. Bed was comfortable, and quiet at night. Parking is easy. Nice pool. Bathroom is very small, and tub/shower doesn’t have safety handles so may not be suitable for elderly couple or someone with mobility/balance issues. The beach access is still under repair. Looks like it is being worked on. So check if that is your goal. We didn’t mind walking a bit which takes you to driftwood beach. We road our bikes down on the beach and on all the great trails on the island. We had a great time.

Reviewer Comments:
This one bedroom villa was just the right size for us. It was very quiet and private feeling. We like to cook,so the kitchen could have been outfitted with better utensils and cookware.
We stayed here on an anniversary trip. We loved the villa, it was clean and had everything we needed. It was the perfect size for a couple. The area is nice. I would recommend bringing a fire stick if you like to stream. They do have TVs with DirecTV though. We didn’t come to watch TV though, so we were unbothered by it.

Thank you for your 5 Star Review. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again soon
The Villa was the perfect size. Very quiet. The ocean was just a few steps away. Driftwood beach was very close and amazing. We had one housekeeping issue at the beginning of our stay and some confusion with the host on a phone call. Was resolved quickly once clarified. Otherwise the villa was very clean.we enjoyed the golf courses and restaurants on the Island.

Our stay was very positive except that the shower had no safety grips or handles. It was very difficult to use the shower for fear of fffgfsllingfallingfalling
The unit is as described and extremely clean. Bed is comfy; linens are nice. Ceiling fans appreciated. I enjoyed sitting in the small patio.The property manager rapidly responds to questions. Communications were clear and timely.Make sure you pick up groceries, toilet paper etc. before you enter the island as groceries available are minimum and expensive.

Reviewer Comments:
The room was tight but OK. Our issue was the odor we noticed when coming into the room. We guess the room was recently occupied by a heavy smoker. The smell was in the air conditioning system and if you came into the room while the air was running, you definitely noticed the odor. Parker-Kaufman, the rental agency, was responsive when called. We appreciated the responsiveness. The room cost was at the top of the room rates.

NO ACCESS TO BEACH!
Overall the bed was comfortable and we enjoyed the island BUT…..we booked this at least 8 months prior to our stay, considering it was the Memorial Day weekend-we were attending a wedding on the island Upon arrival we decided to take a sunset stroll-imagine our surprise when we were met with huge boulders and a beach without access- due to Hurricane Helene-no mention of it when I paid the balance I had spoken with Parker-Kaufman office at least twice to confirm. When I called them to inquire, I was told that there was a note about the lack of access on their website and they were not responsible-
This place was just right for us. King size bed with a walk in closet, bath tub, kitchen, pull-out couch (only suitable for kids) and a little patio with seats where you can see the ocean.
You can walk to driftwood beach. The on property restaurants is supposed to be the highest ranked on the island, but we didn't try it.
Large pool, not heated, but the kids didn't care!
The playground is right outside the front door! A big climbing tree out back. Fitness center on other side of playground. Coin laundry a couple of buildings down. The only negative was that there was only public wifi from what I could tell. Bring coffee/coffee filters.
A great location. Everything was brand new when we visited in spring 2024. Very clean and easy. We really enjoyed our stay!
