Small beach towels are also available at the pool.
Located next door to the complex is Driftwood Beach - rated #3 Top Beaches in the US by Tripadvisor, which is just a stroll down the beach! Both sunset and sunrise are absolutely beautiful there. Jekyll island also has scenic walking & biking paths to more restaurants, shops, mini & real golf, etc. Golf carts are available to rent at the airport. We have also found many live sand dollars on the beach, and watch for deer throughout the island!

We hope you love Shipwatch Retreat as much as we do!

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Do not feel that the staff cared about the problems I was having with my place I rented. I was never offered any type of compensation for any of the issues I had the whole time I was there. Only one person at Parker Kaufman said kind enough to help with anything.

Summary: It is a beautifully landscaped, well run comfortable property. The amenities are great. We had a delicious dinner at the restaurant, swam in the large pool daily, and made use of the laundry facilities.We enjoyed being so close to picturesque Driftwood Beach, lovely at sunrise or sunset.

Summary: If you are looking for a place to wind down and relax this is the spot. I was concerned about the parking as I had one arm in a sling and had to make several trips to unload but the parking was spot on and basically just outside the door. I was also concerned when I saw the Playground was located just outside the door. I never heard a sound from the inside, even when multiple children were playing there.The walk to driftwood beach is short and easily found, which is the main reason I booked at this location. It is quiet and set away from the traffic. The unit could use a little updating by mounting the bedroom TV, possibly using a smaller model. Ceiling fans would have been a welcome addition to the bedrooms as well. I did find a tower fan in the closet which I put to use, although the stand was broken I manage to make it work. The Kitchen is well stocked with cooking items and dishes you may require. They also have light blocking curtains which was definitely a plus.I highly recommend this location if you are looking to get away and relax.

Summary: We have nothing negative to stay about our visit. It was clean. The location was spectacular. The kids loved it and had a great time as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we can’t wait to come back! Side note: The no see-ums were TERRIBLE! This was the only downside of the trip! So make sure you bring/wear your bug spray! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Summary: Overall it's nice. The stairs are a little steep and only having one bathroom upstairs was not ideal for my parents but we made it work. There are a few things that need some attention, the bedroom door does not shut and there is a smell from likely mildew at one point or perhaps someone smoked in the unit. Bring your own coffee filters as there were none. Location was good and very friendly staff. Bedroom has ocean view which was really nice and company seemed easy to work with.
