A lovely, tastefully decorated home with an ocean access walkover just a short walk away. Lots of space with a large kitchen with bar and two dining tables. ROKU AND XFINITY!!! Sidewalk to everywhere runs through the front yard, and don't forget the fully fenced back yard for the fur babies! Ceiling fans everywhere. Stay was joyful, I feel fortunate indeed to have stayed in this home.

We had such a wonderful time! The house was so lovely and cozy with everything we needed. It was a very comfortable and relaxing space and very clean. Jekyll reality was very responsive and easy to work with. The house is a short walk to beach and a short bike read to breakfast. We definitely recommend bringing bikes. We went during Christmas time and Jekyll is very festive with lots to do and pretty decorations:)

We started out in a Villa and needed to be moved to Fortunate Sun. The switch was very smooth and Jekyll Realty was VERY accommodating, as we had a pet with us. The was perfectly suited with everything we needed. Close proximity to the beach and beach house where our 11 other family members were staying. Thank you JEKYLL REALTY!!!

We enjoyed our stay in Fortunate Sun. The property is clean and great location. Access to beach was easy although be aware there is no beach access for a couple of hours before and after high tide. Fenced in backyard was great for our dog. Kitchen was well stocked. The bathrooms could really use some updating and it would be nice to have dressers/hangers in the bedrooms to unpack.

The home had everything that we needed. Our dogs loved having a fenced yard.. All of the beds were comfortable and the home was very clean. There was plenty of seating for everyone when we gathered in the living room at the end of the day. We made many great family memories on this trip.
Enjoyed our stay very much. Everything is exactly as described. I call no surprises a good thing.

The house is very comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped for meal preparation. Love the screened porch! If there was an additional half bath, I would give 5 stars for sure. Pet friendly is appreciated!

Fortunate Sun was very comfortable. The kitchen space is great, which we needed as we ate dinner every night at the house. The kitchen is also stocked very well with cooking supplies, including a n air fryer and crockpot. The screened porch and fenced in backyard is also a great amenity. If it had an additional 1/2 bath, it would be five stars. I would also remove the formal dining room furniture and add bunk beds. We had a great experience!
