Sister trip
Our stay was wonderful. The island has so much to offer. I watched the sunrise for two mornings. The condo was great. You could use potholders and some more dishcloths and dish towels. The restaurants at VBTS were really good. I wish we had discovered them earlier. No designated driver needed. You asked that we empty garbage ever day but you did not supply garbage bags. I think that is something you should have provided.

The man that runs the office for this reality company was not a very nice person. He wanted to treat my husband like he was an idiot. Lost a key and had to get another one. Had to pay $25 for it. They sent three different keys an not one of them worked. After having to go back 3 times ( using our gas) for them to fix. No parking places at night. We were supposed to have 2. Was told when we got there we had to wash our own towel and sweep and vacuum out floors. Never in all the places we have stayed were we had to do this especially our own towels. I would advise other people to never ever stay here!

Great location
Everything was was as listed and the location of unit 379 is perfect! I only gave 4 stars on cleanliness because the unit is a dated one and not really deep cleaned in a while it seems but I knew that when I booked it. There was a more updated unit available but we wanted the beach views.

Nice cozy oceanfront condo, close to Driftwood Beach
This oceanfront two-level condo is directly on the beach in a quieter part of Jekyll Island. Driftwood beach is only 10-12 minutes by foot and 2 minutes by car. The main shopping area is only 10 minutes by car. The condo is well appointed and clean and the view is great, especially from the second level bedroom and deck. It does not have a washer/dryer, though. There is a great restaurant (Driftwood Bistro) on site. Overall, a great place to spend a few days with family and friends.
