A Poolside Paradise Villa 340 - Villas By The Sea Resort Jekyll Island

A Poolside Paradise - Villa 340Villas By The Sea Resort Poolside Paradise is a beautiful, renovated 2 bedroom, 1 bath second-floor entry end unit villa located in the oceanfront Villa by The Sea Resort (VBTS). This 17-acre resort is located on the north side of Jekyll Island directly adjacent to the world-famous Driftwood Beach which ranks #3 in the US and #12 in the world by TripAdvisor’s “Best of the Best Beaches”.
Directly across the road is Horton Pond, a natural habitat that is perfect for bird watching and seeing other wildlife. When you enter the villa, you will find a bright and open floorplan living room, dining area and fully equipped kitchen with a Keurig coffee maker. Sliding glass doors lead to a balcony overlooking the large outdoor pool with peek-a-boo views of the ocean. The living room has a media cabinet with a flat screen 50-inch TV offering Direct TV, state of the art Wi-Fi, and comfortable seating. On the second level you will find a large main bedroom with a queen-size bed with plenty of storage for clothes in drawers and the closet. There is also a flat screen TV. This room features sliding doors leading to a small balcony overlooking the pool with more views of the ocean. The second bedroom has 2 twin beds for the kids or extra guests, along with a flat screen TV. Our Villa is family friendly and comes with a Pack-n-Play and booster highchair seat. A large, shared hall bathroom has been beautifully remodeled and updated featuring 2 sinks and a tub/shower combo. For your convenience, the resort has a restaurant and lounge (Tues-Sat), as well as a business center and snack/gift shoppe (24 hour/day). Gas and charcoal grills are steps from the unit right next to the pool. Our villa is just steps away from the boardwalk and pavilion with many chairs for you to sit and enjoy stunning ocean views. Children can enjoy the Pirate Ship playground and the kiddie pool. Families can enjoy playing basketball, volleyball, and cornhole at the resort. The resort also has a fitness room, bike rentals, and discounted golf tickets. The island abounds with natural beauty; over two thirds of the island is protected habitat of beautiful live oak trees and marshes. Birds and wildlife (including alligators) abound. Jekyll Island is close enough for day trips to Cumberland Island, St. Simons Island, the Okefenokee Swamp, Jacksonville, and Savannah. Jacksonville Airport is one hour away. The island boasts three 18-hole golf courses, a tennis center, twenty-five miles of bike/walking paths and a fishing pier. Tours of the historic district, the beautiful Gilded Age “cottages", and Mosaic Museum are available. Other activities include the Tidelands Nature Center, Guided Kayak Tours, Horseback riding, the Georgia Sea Turtle Center, and the Summer Waves water park.

Wonderful family vacation
My family of four had a wonderful stay in this villa. The property was clean, and readily available when instructed it would be. Check-in and check-out were both a breeze. My only critique is the listing indicates a washer/dryer on site. The listing should specify there is coin laundry available at the Villas By the Sea, but not within the unit itself. Also, there is no coin machine available in the laundry area, so plan ahead and bring quarters if you require laundry services while staying.

Great Stay
We enjoyed the stay and would go back again. Very relaxing and easy to get to the pool and beach. We don’t like crowds and heavy commercialization so this was a great speed for us. Overall, the place seemed to be clean and in good condition. However, one of the twin beds obviously had not had fresh sheets. There was hair and nasal material left behind. Unfortunately, we arrived on Sunday and there is no one available from Parker Kaufman on Sundays and Villas By the Sea doesn’t manage this unit. I was able to track down Villas staff and they graciously provided a fresh set of sheets…not a major deal but sheets is one of THE most obvious and easiest things to ensure are clean and ready to go. It wasn’t worth making a fuss over, mistakes happen. We would go back again. We probably would consider booking directly through VBTS next time just for convenience of on-site staff should needs arise next time.

Fantastic Stay!
This property was wonderful! We had a great time enjoying the pool and beach access. It was located close enough to walk to Driftwood Beach (gorgeous, and a MUST) and also not a far drive from shops and dining. We had a wonderful time and look forward to coming back!

Absolutely wonderful
This is the 3rd time my husband & I have stayed in a villa on Jekyll Island; this property is our favorite so far! It felt like home. Everything was perfect -- the decor, the amenities, the space. We had plenty of room to relax, & the glimpses of the ocean from both floors were a treat for me. We had an absolutely incredible vacation; staying in this villa was an integral part of that.

We loved our stay
This condo was perfect for our little family . It was less then five minutes to walk to the beach it had a nice covered sitting area on the beach with chairs so you can sit and view the ocean . The condo had two small balconies that over look the pool one is upstairs in the master bedroom the other downstairs in the living room area. The condo had plenty of space for all four of us! The beds could of been a little softer but that wasn’t deal breaker. Overall we will come back!

Perfect family get away
We joined several family members on vacation at Jekyll for the week. We were all staying at Villas. By the Seas and by far we had the best unit. Great for us to gather in and play games or share a meal. The proximity to the pool was a plus for us. The renovations look great. Only issue was lack of staff at island restaurants so we ate in all but two nights.

Joyful Jekyll
We had a wonderful time on Jekyll Island. The accommodations were excellent and the weather was perfect. We took the trolley tour and the dolphin tour. My only criticism was that the website said that there was a washer and drier with the unit which there was not.

Family Getaway
Pleasantly surprised at how clean the Villa was. It was amazingly clean and well kept (and I’m very picky about cleanliness!) Villa was perfect size for us and everything was updated. Kind of a bummer that they’re doing construction all around this building... all throughout the day you hear the beeping of big machines, hammering, etc. etc. etc. You can barely see the ocean from the balconies because of the trees, however you can hear it pretty well. The water was crashing against the rock seawall the entire time we were there so we didn’t use the beach access much... however, we just popped on our RedBug and drove down the a public beach access. The biggest thing for us was that you cannot drop the air conditioning below 70°. This was a big issue for us. Everyone in my family sleeps hot and since the bedrooms have no ceiling fans, mixed with the 70° thermostat it got HOT! We drove into Brunswick and bought portable fans for each bedroom and slept much more comfortably so... BRING YOUR OWN FAN! Overall we loved the unit and would stay here again. It was very clean, conveniently located, quiet, has a great selection of TV channels (which was awesome because we have young children who enjoy watching cartoons before bed), and the playground/pool on site were great too!
