This place was nicer than my house. Three porches are amazing. Definitely will stay here again.
Magnificient Sunrise! Came here for that purpose and seafood, and calming atmosphere.
We enjoyed our stay at Villas of the Sea. We do agree with some of the other reviews stating the place is a little outdated, but it was comfortable, clean, and met our needs. You do have Driftwood beach within 5 min walking distance, but if you want a condo that opens up directly to typical beachfront access, you’ll need to stay at one of the hotels farther south. There is a smal stretch of sand in front of the Villas By the Sea units but then immediately after that is a rocky erosion barrier. The restaraunt was good, I just recommend getting there about 15 min before it opens so you don’t have a 2 hour wait. (That’s true for most restaurants on the island as well). Overall, we enjoyed our stay and for the price we would stay here again.
great employees, love how close it was to the beach, not so overcrowded like other places
It was very easy to find. If you decided to stay another night it is heavily discounted. Rooms were clean and the amenities were the best I’ve ever seen in a hotel. It has everything you need. A short walk to the beach. I am definitely going to stay again.
Jekyll Island is a really cool destination. Quiet and restful. If you like the Atlantic Ocean the beaches are nice. Great place to bike or hike miles of trails. Not so good: with covid 19 we still travel but we clean the surfaces when we get to the room. VERY surprised how dirty normal things were.
Private area...good view for price. Front desk took good care of us at checkin. My only concern was the old smell in the villa.
Very well kept and blended with the landscaping - beautiful room with a perfect view of the ocean
Front desk ladies were friendly and polite. Property is beautiful. Arrived late, hot and tired. Master Bathroom was nasty. I would not spend $350 for a night here again. The return did not equal my investment by far. I was really disappointed.
I loved everything about my stay there the rooms were very nice and clean and the staff was very friendly
Bad air conditioning. Bad shower nozzle. Minimum water. Out of nozzle. Very hot in room.
We thought there was a beach at the beachfront room. Wrong. There was a stone seawall that blocked the view of the ocean.
The room needed updating and we came home with bugs, not sure how we got them.
The view was amazing! Only downfall was the giant rock wall infront of the ocean. The apartment was grea but,t beds were hard. No nightlife town pretty much goes to sleep at dark.
I was not given the room that I selected when I made the reservation online. The room I selected had a kitchen, but I was given one without. The room was nice and clean but advertisement of the room was misleading and also I didn’t like the 4:00 check-in time.
Nice property on the water. Rooms are excellent especially the master bedroom.
Was told i had oceanview instead i got bottom floor with a view of the brush. Didn't even have a beach to walk to and lay out on and enjoy the water because of a huge rock wall blocking it. If that had been told to me i wouldn't have stayed here.

We are sorry we didn't get a higher rating. We wish we had known while you were here something we could have improved on to make you stay more enjoyable.
