Lovely and quiet… boardwalk to the beach in front of the property was closed for repairs - should be open again soon -
Amy, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a great place to stay. The only negative being the television service. This was a big sports weekend and we were unable to watch anything on the main television in the living room area because it had a ROKU. The bedrooms had DirecTV but you can’t have guests crowding into the bedrooms. The ROKU rendered the main television useless.

Villas by the Sea awesome

Very well managed place. We got room 301 which was away from the other rooms from the building. Spacious and very clean. It accommodated our needs and it was right by the pool and driftwood beach. Quiet and it had all the things we needed in the room. Definitely come here again.
Stephen, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at the Villas by the Sea last year and saw so many updates this trip. The boardwalks, adirondack chairs, lighting updates, the new restaurant, "Jekyll & Tide", etc., really added to this lovely, comfortable and friendly place to stay. On our way home, we talked about coming back next year!

Not the Worst Experience.... Not the Best, Either

The restaurant on-site, not an actual part of Villas By the Sea, isn't helping this aging property's brand a bit. Closing the ONLY restaurant on the property for Sunday (and, as far as I could tell, Monday) is a business disaster. The bed was comfort personified, but the front desk personnel, while personable, did not explain (at least to me) how to access the free wifi or how to operate the heat/cooling - or even the DirectTV setup. Fortunately, I'm "techie" enough to figure it all out. Having arrived from a bus to Brunswick and private transit to the resort, I had hoped this would have been taken into consideration, but I wound up walking my luggage and myself to my unit using a hastily-drawn map of the property. My last stay here was about 10 years ago, so I had assumed some changes had been made - unfortunately, the sower fixtures were not among them. It was a pleasant, but not fantastic, vacation stay.
James, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The unit we stayed in was very nice. My whole family rented units for a golf tournament . Every one of the units had extremely dirty floors. Our white socks were very black after walking in stocking feet for one day. I don't think housekeeping is washing floors at all. Other than that, the unit we stayed in was quite clean and well equiped. I wanted to attach a picture of the disgusting socks, but could not do so here.
