Last summer vacation for 2025

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was perfect accommodations, the rooms were great. The only issue was the water pressure in the downstairs bedroom was not great. It was just trickling. The parking could be better but overall it was perfect and we will definitely be renting again in the near future.

Roomy townhouse

Nice townhouse in a very nice area of Jekyll Island. The unit was nicely decorated. Very comfortable beds. The kitchen was just okay. Most of the cookware and utensils were pretty tired and definitely need to be refreshed. Walls could use a coat of paint as well. We like the area very much but probably would not rent this unit again.

Great for a Weekend Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay here for a long weekend. The community was very quiet and friendly, my son loved the pool and the beach was beautiful at low tide. Driftwood beach is only a mile up the road. The place was clean, spacious and very cute. I would stress the need to bring your own provisions - they provide only the bare minimum for paper products and dish detergent and soap. We would definitely go back.

Home away from home!

This was such a perfect home to stay in! Modern, comfortable, and meticulously maintained. A true pleasureable stay. Even though it is not ocean facing, it has the next best thing - greenery surrounding it. If you enjoy privacy, or not looking out your windows at your neighbors this unit is the best. Short walk to the beach and pool. Couldn’t ask for a better getaway! Will DEFINITELY be returning!

Beautiful!

Overall, a beautiful condo. One note, the master bed was very high and when you're 83 and 5' 3" it is difficult to navigate. The other occupant in the master was also short and elderly so we had to improvise when only one stool was supplied.

Spring break

This is an excellent house. Spotlessly clean, lots of space (nice high ceilings too), well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and other furniture. Only caution and this doesn't have anything to do with the house, is that the beach at this part of the island is either under water or the sand is wet, due to the high tide. We just went about a mile down the road and enjoyed a normal beach experience. So if you're expecting to walk to the beach, be aware of this. Would definitely rent again if visiting the area.

Loved this gorgeous house

This was a special birthday trip from my family to me and the house and location couldn’t have been more perfect. The house was gorgeous, luxurious and super clean. The kids loved falling asleep to the sound of the waves. We loved cooking in the beautiful kitchen and eating on the screened in porch. Close to bike paths and bird sanctuaries. The only problem was that the vacation ended too soon! We absolutely loved everything about this stupendous house and Jekyll island .....we will be back! The realty company was super nice and easy to work with.

Wonderful cottage on Jekyll Island

The property and all the photos were spot on as advertised. The cottage was right next to the street, which concerned us, but we never heard traffic at all; and, because of the trees, we never saw it, either. The interior of the cottage was beautiful; 3 spacious and lovely bedrooms, each with an en suite bath. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed to prepare meals (if that's part of your vacation) - except the groceries. We did bring extra paper goods since there were 3-1/2 bathrooms. The community itself is beautiful, quiet, and our cottage was only a minute's walk down the path to the beach. We spent our evenings enjoying the patio outside and sitting in the big Adirondeck chairs around the gas fire pit (enjoying cocktails and s'mores). Overall, an absolute gem of a find and we will definitely consider this again for next year's trip to Jekyll Island. If I had a negative at all (which I really do not) is that the cleaning service could be a bit better; there were large cob webs on the porch screens that could have been brushed away, and a few of the corners in the house - especially in the master bedroom on 1st floor - were dirty - but that's all and definitely not a deal breaker. Considering a stay on Jekyll Island? Then do consider The Cottages for your "home away from home". We all LOVED it!

We loved Jekyll Island, Garden Cottage 01 has a n issue to be addressed

We liked the location and amenities of the cottage but apparently the gas fireplace is not vented properly. We used it for 1 1/2 hours one evening and then turned it off and went to bed at 11:30pm. At 1am the smoke alarm in the cottage was going off so we jumped out of bed and looked for the problem. We saw nothing so we opened doors and turned on the fans. The alarm eventually silenced and we went back to bad. About 5 minutes later a fire truck pulled up and firemen were knocking on our door. They checked our carbon monoxide levels which were high especially upstairs.Again at their insistence we opened doors and windows and put ceiling fans on for about 30 minutes.After a bit they felt it was safe to close doors and return to bed. The realty company called at the time the firemen were there and asked us not to use the fireplace again. We sure did not! We never heard another word from the realty company. My advice is to rent a different cottage unless you ask specifically if the fireplace venting has been repaired in Garden Cottage 01. Maybe even bring your own carbon monoxide monitor!
