It was a very nice place to stay. Quiet. Secluded and with all of the amenities of home. Hosts were very welcoming. Also great for our pet dog. Would definitely stay there again.
It was very nice. Pretty and simple decor, nice screen porch which looked out on wildness. Easy walk to the ocean. You can swim there at any tide-- high tide is fine.

We loved our week here. We used the stipend from VayKay rentals to rent bikes for the week. We love riding the trails and through the historic district. The house was as advertised and had what we needed. The living room furniture was comfortable and we enjoyed the small but nice screened in porch in back.

It was a very nice and secluded place to stay. Very quiet and it had all the amenities of home. The owners were very nice and accommodating. The screened porch was nice to sit on and also for storage. Garage also provided storage for bicycles, etc. Centrally located and only a few blocks to the beach.

Reviewer Comments:
This was a good last minute, animal friendly find. We booked a partial week only a week ahead of time and it worked for us. (4 adults and infant) We liked that the house was secluded in the neighborhood and within walking distance to the beach. There are several bicycles there but we didn't use them so can't vouch for working order. Home owner is right next door but we only saw them once, which was fine. This is an older 2br, 1.5 bath duplex home, clean, well furnished with some updating. A nice screened back porch, easy 2 vehicle paved driveway. The deer outback nearly ate apples from our hands which was a treat. Overall comfortable. Thank you Jekyll Realty for notifying us when it was ready and eliminating the stop at the office on the way in. We dropped keys off for check out with ease.

We had a good time at this rental. Everything was well arranged & neat. You just need to walk across the road to get on the beach. We would definitely like to come back again. (A king bed in one of the bedrooms would have been better)

Such a cute, quiet, little place. Perfect for 2 people and especially a dog. We had so much space for our dog to roam in the house to play, the back porch was perfect for her to go outside and just sit. We had everything we possibly needed there.

We are Jekyll Island fans. This was a good last minute find when looking for a pet friendly partial week. We booked only a week ahead and it worked for us. (4 adults and infant) We enjoyed the seclusion in the neighborhood and within walking distance to the beach. Lots of nearby sites for fishing, beach, golf, biking, putt putt. We ate at home because previous trips prove to be long waits at local restaurants. There are several bicycles at Hiddn Gem, but we didn't use them so can't vouch for working order. Home owner is right next door but we only saw them once, which was fine. This is an older 2br, 1.5 bath duplex home, clean, well furnished with some updating. A nice screened back porch, easy 2 vehicle paved driveway. The deer outback nearly ate apples from our hands which was a treat. Overall comfortable.

Reviewer Comments:
The home was as described and very clean. On two of the days tap & bath water ran yellow. We were supposed to stay from the 19th through the 26th however we left on the 22nd. Despite asking questions about the quality of the water on the beach at Jekyll Island prior to booking our reservation & again when making our final payment we were told we had nothing to worry about and that the beach water was perfectly fine. I specifically asked about the muddiness of the water because we had experience that on our last stay on Jekyll, and wanted to make sure that beach beautification had been done to bring back the sand, so that you weren’t stepping in mud when entering the water. We were again told no issues. Once on the island, we were greeted with black and dark, brown, muddy water, rolling in on every wave to the point where we did not feel comfortable, even getting in the water. We left early on the 22nd & no one from Jekyll Realty reached out to us. The yellow water was temporary due to work on water tower.

We enjoyed being able to bring our dogs. Good walking area for them. We came to bike and it was a great location for biking.
A hidden gem was an excellent place to stay. It was our first trip to Jekyll Island and we enjoyed it very much. We liked that we could bring our dogs. The house was in a quiet neighborhood. There were even friendly deer. We had a great day thank you very much.

We had been too Jekyll Island 26 years ago but not at Christmastime. We love that Jekyll has not changed all that much. Not overly touristy! We loved ALL the Christmas decorations, driving through the lights, the Christmas parade and that our little rental (Hidden Gem) had mega decorations! It made for a festive Holiday for us who have no family left. We hope too visit again. THANK YOU Theresa and John Neal for being great hosts!

Stayed at a Jekyll rental home 26 years ago. It was a great visit. Husband and I were HAPPY too see Jekyll had not changed all that much. a few new things but not huge change. We love the 'laid back' feel as we are from way out in the country of Tennessee. We LOVED our stay at the 'Hidden Gem' for ten days. Our hosts were AWESOME! We hope too visit again soon. Love all the Christmas Decorations everywhere. THIS made OUR Christmas Holiday for us. THANK YOU...
