Disliked: Communication
Internet was sketchy at best, and unsecure. Do not plan to work from here. We set up hot spot from our phone, had to put the phone outside the patio door to obtain service. On the surface, property was clean, but not deep down clean. Bed was comfy, kitchen was sort of stocked, cabinets were a thrown in the cabinet hodge podge mess. No kitchen textiles other than a sponge and one hand towel. 4 bath towels for 2 people for a 5 day stay. Property needed maintenance work.

What makes this property unique

The Villas resort has the Jekyll Island accommodations closest to legendary Driftwood Beach, which is a short walk (just a few hundred yards) up the shoreline. Meanwhile, down by the Villas’ own lengthy stretch of beach, there is a wide, sandy promenade perfect for strolling and sunbathing, as well as an inviting new boardwalk and accompanying pavilion – complete with deck chairs – for getting into the laid-back, Jekyll Island state of mind. (Your unit also has beach chairs, beach umbrellas and beach towels available for your use.) The 17-acre Villas resort complex has a large outdoor pool (open 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day; pool towels provided) with an adjoining kiddie pool, picnic area and fire pit. The property also features a basketball half-court, volleyball court, free fitness facility, playground, barbeque grills (with even more picnic tables), coin laundromat, ice and vending machines, bicycle racks, charging stations for electric vehicles (including golf carts), and wireless Internet service.
