Great little apartment

The unit was an end-unit 1 bed/1 bath apartment with a full kitchen. It was in a great spot and will likely stay in the same complex for similar trips to Jekyll in the future.

Quick visit

We stopped on our way from our house in VA to our property in FL. I have been visiting Jekyll for 50 years. It is my happy place. This condo was perfect for us and our two dogs, amazing location and well equipped. The new restaurant at the Villas was fabulous. Looking forward to returning.

Great location

This was a great location. Quiet but close to all things Jekyll Island. People on the property were kind and helpful. We had a power outage due to ice/snow storm. I was impressed how everyone came together and were so kind and helpful. We are definitely returning!

Short stroll to the beach!

Loved the location. Our oldest is an environmental educator on the south end of the island and we booked this trip last minute to visit during spring break. Very clean throughout the entire condo, short walk to the amazing beach and beautiful pool area. We also were able to bring our dog.

Nice place

Cozy but great location next to Driftwood Beach. Only thing we didn't like was the configuration of the bathroom door that is ALWAYS in the way. So much so that we just removed it and stashed it away for the duration of the time there. It would be nice if trash bags were provided, too.

Fantastic time

We stayed seven nights at Villa 401 and had a wonderful time. The little unit was perfect for the two of us and our two little doxies. Close to beach walkway and laundry and a 12 minute walk to beautiful Driftwood Beach. It was magical at sunrise💙. We hope to return next year.

Only 100 steps to water. Resort has on site restaurant. Short walk to Driftwood beach which was really awesome. Loved Jekyll Island. Historic district was pretty neat. Resort has bikes to rent. Nice biking trail on island. Several restaurants and shops on island. Very relaxing.

Great stay for Holly Jolly Jekyll

Had a great stay. The unit we stayed in was lovely and clean. Ground floor was perfect for getting to the beach, bike riding and taking our dog out. We had an issue with the television satellite which was resolved the same day (we knew it was going to be raining the next day so we wanted to make sure it was working and didn't want to call on Sunday). Will visit again!

Beachfront

Great location, on the corner so no neighbor to one side. Beautiful back yard of trees with birds singing. Board walk to beach just a few steps away. Beach not great because it has a barrier and can’t get to the water unless it is low tide. Place was nice and comfortable.

Quick Getaway with the kiddos

The condo is just as described. The only complaint I had ( and I had read before we went ) the pull out bed mattress is terrible. My 12 year old slept fine in it, but it needs to be replaced. The boardwalk is great ( day or night ). We walked to Driftwood beach, which is magical. Pool is great.

Nice stay but no wifi and poor cellular

Property was as expected in size and quality. There was no wifi and my cellular (TMobile) was very poor at this location.We had wifi available at other properties on the island so it was a service provided and available if the property owner chose to provide it.
