Salty Tortoise - By Beach Access
Brand new to the vacation rental market! This completely renovated modern 3 bed 2 bath home is just 2 blocks from direct beach access. You can walk to the beach or take a quick 2 minute car ride and be right in the beach parking lot.
Any stays less than 21 days from April 1st to August 31st also get a free nightly beach credit you can use towards bikes, beach chairs, cornhole, paddleboards and many other beach items!
A 2-3 minute bike ride or drive also gets you to some of the best restaurants Jekyll Island offers. You are close to the Jekyll Island convention center and all the cute boutiques and shops!
Summer Waves waterpark is open Memorial Day through Labor Day and is a 5 minute drive from the home.
Hopefully most of your time is spent outside but if you decide to spend the day at the home resting, you have plenty of items to keep you entertained. There are smart TVs throughout the home and main living area where you can stream your favorite shows. There are also some board games for your use.
The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking and there is a Keurig available for your morning coffee.
The backyard is fully fenced in and includes a fire pit and a propane grill. There is a 2 car garage for you to store your vehicle in or just to park the golf cart you can rent from many of the local rental shops.
