The Space:

This renovated, contemporary coastal duplex is a short walk to the beach. It is perfect for a family get-away with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths in an established beach community.



Enjoy the private patio, a perfect place to relax by the fire or grill dinner after a day at the beach, or have your morning coffee while breathing in the salt air. We welcome your pets, and most of Jekyll Island beaches are pet-friendly with a leash. The yard is fully fenced in and includes a fire pit for you to sit around in the evenings.



The home is a 3-5 minute walk to beach access and a 2 minute drive to the beach.



We also offer a free pool pass to enjoy the pool at the Holiday Inn. You also have access to fitness amenities at Holiday Inn such as water aerobics, yoga, etc.



Please note Jekyll Island is a state park and as part of conservation, there is a $10 per day parking fee collected at the time you enter the island. You can pay by cash or credit card.



If your stay is 3-21 nights long, you will receive a beach gear credit of $35/night.



Please note:

There is a $100 pet fee for those guests bringing pets.



Pack N Play and strollers available upon request for $15 each for the duration of your stay. Please notify us at least 1 day in advance if you would like to rent them so we can ensure they are delivered prior to your arrival.

This was a lovely home, very comfortable for our family of 5– grandparents, son and two children. Lots of space and separate areas to congregate. The location was great— near the beach and a short drive to the village and many other attractions. Additionally there was a pass to the pool at the Holiday Inn, and credits for renting beach equipment. We loved staying here.

At home by the beach

This home had everything we needed for a relaxing time at the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed for quick meals, the patio was a great gathering spot and the neighborhood was quiet. We really appreciated being able to walk to the beach access and just a quick drive into town to shop or get ice cream. Perfect for our family!

Trip to Jekyll for wedding

Our daughter had a small wedding on Driftwood beach and this place was perfect for the family since it was close to everything. The house is tastefully decorated and has lots of natural light which was perfect for the bride to get ready and for pictures. The layout of the home is nice with spots to relax and gather. I would stay here again next time I am in Jekyll.
