Reviewer Comments: Good accommodations for extended family beach time Kitchen was well equipped Some additional maintenance (doorknobs, doors for washer/dryer) would be good

We had a sister weekend with great friends eight of us stayed and we all had a wonderful time. Great location great home lots of space for everyone. room very conveevereverything

This was our first family trip to Jekyll and loved how laid back it was. Traffic was amazing and we were able to easily find parking. The rental was nice, but could use a deep cleaning. Other than that, it had plenty of room for our family and plenty of space to spread out, but also come together for meals. The garage is not usable as there are things stored in there. We were also very happy that someone came out to spray for ants. Whatever they used worked and we were able to enjoy time on the patio. Take note that they are all over the island, though and you will need bug spray. Although we thought we could easily access the beach from the house, several things were not in our favor. First, the steps leading down to the water needed repair. Take caution because the bottom two steps are missing. There are blue crab hanging out by the steps as well, and they were cool to look at. Also, the water was up to the rocks most of the day. You could walk early morning and late night. This didn't stop us from going about a mile down the road to a public beach and it was very nice! We enjoyed a great meal at The Beach House which was also close by and we would recommend the prime rib sandwich and burger! We would recommend that you purchase groceries elsewhere since they are overpriced at the local market. Overall, we are thankful to spend time together as a family here at 6 Ellis Lane.

We had a great time enjoying the beach and the house.

Our family of six stayed here for five days. Overall you can tell the house has been recently renovated. Furniture and art all seem new. We saw some opportunities for improvement during our stay: Cleanliness- We saw a picture of the grill in the listing so we purchased some burgers and hot dogs. There was broken glass on the back patio that my barefoot nephew almost stepped on. We found a broom and swept it out of the way. The grill was super dirty and covered in leftover food from previous use. I had to scrub it a lot to get it clean enough to use. Pests- The outside of the property is covered with tiny ants everywhere (on the patio, sidewalk and on the house). There were a number of tiny spiders in the kids rooms. We also had to kill a couple cockroaches in the main bedroom. Broken- Two the burners on the stovetop were not working. I call the property manager and someone came out to repair them the day before we left. Supplies- They did provide a couple dishwasher tabs and two rolls of toilet paper. We called to ask for more and were told we could come by the office to pick up more dishwasher tabs. They do not provide extra toilet paper. There was no soap in the bathrooms to wash your hands so we had to buy that too. Checkout- Even though there is a cleaning fee, they require you to wash, dry and put away all dishware. All floors must be swept and vacuumed. Bedding must be stripped. Failure of any of these will incur MORE cleaning fees.
