Not the Worst Experience.... Not the Best, Either

The restaurant on-site, not an actual part of Villas By the Sea, isn't helping this aging property's brand a bit. Closing the ONLY restaurant on the property for Sunday (and, as far as I could tell, Monday) is a business disaster. The bed was comfort personified, but the front desk personnel, while personable, did not explain (at least to me) how to access the free wifi or how to operate the heat/cooling - or even the DirectTV setup. Fortunately, I'm "techie" enough to figure it all out. Having arrived from a bus to Brunswick and private transit to the resort, I had hoped this would have been taken into consideration, but I wound up walking my luggage and myself to my unit using a hastily-drawn map of the property. My last stay here was about 10 years ago, so I had assumed some changes had been made - unfortunately, the sower fixtures were not among them. It was a pleasant, but not fantastic, vacation stay.

We got the first floor so not the ocean view we were hoping for. We could barely see the top of the water. But cleanliness was a 5/5. It’s quiet as well. Beach access is still closed and high tides in that area are rough.

There was no beach access as the boardwalk/stairs had still not been repaired since Hurricane Helene a year ago. The room was nice and clean, but several of the ice makers outside the buildings were out of order… not ideal during a heatwave. Property and buildings are beautiful; have stayed here many times dating back to the 1970s!

We loved the atmosphere. Wished there was an adult pool. Our Villa was so comfortable, but upstairs wasnt good for me, health issues. Property was nice, but when you have by the sea in your name, then we should be able to enjoy the sea, which we couldn't. We had to leave the property to go to the beach.

These little Villas were a very comfortable way to stay and explore Jeckyll Island. The restaurant was pricey but quite good. We loved being able to walk to the beach and an alligator pond nearby. The kitchen had everything we needed except coffee filters. They supplied coffee in those paper packets, but I had my own coffee I wanted to use. We had a fabulous stay!
