I have stayed at many hotels, condos, etc and I must say that the front desk staff at the Villas is the worse by far. There was one front desk clerk who yelled from the office to ask me what I needed as she didnt get up or even take her eyes off the computer. I told her I wanted... more

Had to vacate the Hotel we reserved because of bathroom problems. So they put us at the Villas by the Sea.We had a 2 bedroom Suite. It was very clean and Furnished with everything we needed.Next time we visit the Island we will be staying here. more

My family has been staying at Villas by the Sea since the late 80s. I have a large family and we have great memories of the island (which is not the Gulf and is a state park and is a prime example of Low Country living in South GA - so don't expect Sandestin and thank God for that!). That... more

We sure wish we were back at Villas by the Sea.. we took a chance booking online but were very pleased. The location is just a what an island should be.. it's not packed full of T-shirt stores and Crab Shacks.. it is the real deal. The tide is not always perfect for beaching but that is one of the... more

After reading some reviews of this property, we had doubts, but ended up being pleased with our stay at Villas by the Sea. A family wedding was what brought us to Jekyll Island for a long weekend. Our villa was clean and in excellent condition. When we first arrived, we had just missed a terrible storm and some villas were... more

We anticipated a relaxing, fun filled vacation. The island is a wonderful place to visit.and is very family oriented. However, the accomodations lack in staff professionalism and our room had very large roaches. We left with loss of valuable time and money. more

We booked our trip to the Villas in January and then read such terrible reviews. We really expected a poor vacation there but kept the reservation anyway. WE ENDED UP LOVING IT! Our villa was clean and cool with the rear facing the beautiful butterfly garden. The beach was a short walk away. Yes, we could not sit on the... more
