"We enjoyed staying in a light and airy villa where sharing a living room, dining room and kitchen was so much nicer than separate hotel rooms."

3-star beachfront resort with villa rentals on Jekyll Island
Amenities
Villas By The Sea Resort & Conference Center offers a fitness center, an outdoor swimming pool, and a water park for guests. The property provides barbecue facilities, picnic areas, and a sun terrace for outdoor dining and relaxation. Additional amenities include an electric vehicle charging station, an ATM on site, and a business center with meeting and banquet facilities.
Rooms
Accommodations range from one-bedroom suites to three-bedroom villas, each with a full kitchen, seating area, and private bathroom. Some villas offer ocean views and balconies or patios, though decor varies as units are individually owned. Air conditioning, flat-screen satellite TVs, and tea and coffee makers are standard in every unit.
Location
The resort sits directly on the beachfront, 300 meters from Driftwood Beach, known for its driftwood trees and shoreline. Horton Pond nature area is across the street, and Great Dunes Park and Jekyll Island Oceanview Beach Park are within a short drive. The property is between Jekyll Island's historical district and village attractions, with bike rental available for island exploration.
Dining
The on-site Driftwood Bistro serves a diverse menu featuring local seafood specialties from Jekyll Island. Guests can also use the barbecue facilities and picnic area for self-catered meals with family and friends. The property offers 24-hour front desk service and concierge assistance for restaurant recommendations and reservations.
Family
A children's playground and a separate kiddie pool (1-2 feet deep) are available on site, along with outdoor play equipment. Bicycle rental allows families to ride to nearby beaches and parks, and the water park offers additional recreation. The resort accepts pets under 45 pounds in limited rooms, making it suitable for families traveling with small dogs.
Highlights
Location: 300 meters from Driftwood Beach
Rooms: 1 to 3-bedroom villas with full kitchens
Dining: Driftwood Bistro with local seafood
Amenities: Outdoor pool, fitness center, water park
Family: Playground, kiddie pool, pet-friendly policy
Business: Conference center with meeting facilities
“Villas By The Sea Resort & Conference Center truly understands family stays; the dedicated children's play area and well-designed pool complex, complete with a separate splash zone, are standouts. The spacious villas themselves lend a comfortable, communal feel absent in traditional hotel rooms, and the property's proximity to Driftwood Beach is a significant draw. While parking can be tight when the on-site restaurant is busy, the responsive staff and overall family-centric atmosphere make it a solid choice for a Jekyll Island getaway.”
