Great, roomy condo

We really enjoyed our stay at this spacious condo. Although there is not really beach access per se, the water is nearby as are great walking beaches and the bike trail is right outside. Overall it is well-equipped, although there were only 2 coffee cups so be sure to bring your own! We would definitely stay here again.

Great Jekyll Location

Comfortable and spacious Jekyll home. Nice layout and plenty of room for our family. Short drive to wonderful Jekyll beach parks or use the neighborhood beach access. We loved the neighborhood pool as another option. Like most VRBO rentals, bring your extra paper products and supplies.

Great house overall. Didn’t actually have beach view. Pool was great. Local shops and restaurants were fantastic and close. Highly recommend The Beachhouse restaurant for dinner. Decor needs a little updating. Only two bedrooms had tv’s.

Cottages at Jekyll Island for the Win!

We recently stayed 4 nights at the Cottages at Jekyll Island and couldn’t have been more pleased! The place was large enough for our family of 4 with each one of us having our own personal space/bathroom. The cottage was easy to locate and check-in process was seamless. The house was clean. The kitchen could use a few more staples, but otherwise we had an amazing time.
