We had a wonderful stay at Anchors Away. The home was clean and well equipped with all the comforts of home. The neighbor home was quiet and we took a few walks while there. The people in the neighborhood were friendly and we were about two block walk from the beach. We will differently stay at Anchors Away for our next visit.

Great place!

Very clean, nicely furnished, great beds

This place was geared toward guest comfort. I can’t think of anything negative to say about it. The king bed was very comfortable, which sometimes is is not the case away from home. Four stars for location was only because it’s two blocks off the main beach road. Great place if you have dogs, The fenced backyard was wonderful for them. Highly recommend and would go back.

Luxury & location

I cannot say enough positive things about this property. Location was ideal for the beach, the back yard was perfect for our dogs, the decor was on point with unique touches, and extras like the fire pit, grill, espresso machine and scented candles made it feel like complete luxury! I wish we could live there full time, but I can guarantee we will be back.

Everything you need for a beach vacation

Anchors Away had everything my family needed for a relaxing beach vacation. The kitchen had plenty of space and all the appliances we needed. It has a nice grill and fire pit on the patio plus a hose to wash off our sandy feet when we got back from the beach. The beach is an easy two block walk and much quieter than the beaches near the hotels. Everything was very clean, thank you for a wonderful stay on beautiful Jekyll Island!

Just what we needed and more!

Everything was great. Older house and on a quiet street in a little neighborhood. House is recently updated and very clean. Has everything you need and more. We really could not have asked for a better rental for the price and location. The back yard and fire pit were great for an evening fire and s’mores with the family.

Wonderful Family Weekend

The most wonderful stay. Our hosts were prompt and responsive. The home was perfectly clean. Our kids loved the space and so did we. We had family come over for dinner and they want to book the house for their next vacation! We were able to walk to the beach, enjoy the back patio, or cook dinner in the lovely kitchen for a relaxing night in. Perfect for our family of four. Could not recommend this house more!

GREAT STAY AT ANCHOR'S AWAY !

We had a wonderful time staying at Anchors Away on Jekyll Island from 6/25/25-6/28/25 on our way traveling to Boone, NC and then from 7/12/25-7/15/25 on our return trip to Ft. Myers, FL. We had stayed at Anchors Away last June and we reserved our days for this past trip soon after our first time there. The house is spacious with lovely furnishings, an updated kitchen, coffee bar and wine cooler fridge. The bed in the primary suite has a comfortable mattress with high quality linens and there are new, luxurious soft and fluffy bath towels. There is a nice deck area and a fenced-in back yard that is perfect for your pups to run around. The beach access is a short 10-minute walk from the house. The days that we were there, the beach was beautiful to walk at low tide and not crowded. My husband rented a bicycle and enjoyed riding the fantastic bike path that goes along the entire perimeter of the island. It is shaded most of the way by huge, beautiful oak trees and there are no golf carts or motorized bikes or scooter permitted on the path so that makes it better (and safer) for the bikers. It was awesome to walk through the neighborhood and see the families of deer up-close as they are used to co-existing with people and dogs in the neighborhood. The property management staff were very responsive and accommodating. We have already reserved our time there for next June and July! We highly recommend a stay at Anchors Away!

Amazing!

The photos don’t do it justice. This duplex is beautiful and spotlessly clean. Really nice amenities including a fabulous coffee station (and we are coffee snobs). We forgot our beach chairs and we really happy to fine they were supplies along with beach towels. The fire pit in the back was perfect for the evenings. Very close and easy walk to the beach and bike trails. The neighbors are quiet and friendly. This is one of the nicest VRBOs we have seen. We are already planning to come back for another stay.

Fabulous location and lovely home on Jekyll Island

We stayed at Anchors Away on Jekyll Island as a stop-over on our way from Ft. Myers to Boone, NC. We were impressed with the spacious flow of the house and lovely furnishings. Every room was clean and comfortable (including the main bedroom mattress) with nice linens and towels. The backyard has a deck area and fenced in lawn off the patio that was ample space for our border collies. This is a duplex home and it was quiet even with neighbors next door. The location is great as it is less than a 5minute walk to the beach access! The beach was beautiful, clean and not too crowded (we were there from 6/26-6/29/24). We enjoyed seeing the deer at various places along the walk to the beach as they appear to be comfortable in the neighborhood where it is quiet with lovely trees and vegetation. The property manager was available when we needed to communicate with her and she was very responsive and helpful. We enjoyed a fabulous meal from the Beach House restaurant (shrimp and grits)! We did take-out since we did not want to dine-out with the pups and the restaurant is less than 5 minutes away and had great take-out service. We enjoyed our stay at Anchors Away and we will be making our reservation to return there next June! We highly recommend this lovely home is you visit Jekyll Island! Blaise and Karen

This was our second stay at Anchors Away (we stayed 3 nights on our way traveling to Boone, NC and 3 nights on our return trip to Ft. Myers, FL). We feel truly Blessed that we found this lovely home at this special location on Jekyll Island! The house is spacious with a nice deck and fenced-in back yard that is great for the pups. The furnishing are lovely with a very comfortable bed in the primary bedroom with nice quality linens and towels (that were brand new, large fluffy bath sheets. The house is well maintained and was very clean. We love the coffee bar and wine cooler fridge. The floor plan is an excellent use of space for each room. The walk to the beach is a pleasant one (about 10 minutes or less). The beach is beautiful to enjoy at low tide it is quite expansive and not too crowded. There are good restaurants for take-out as we did not dine-out since we had our border collie with us and it was too hot to sit outside for dining. My husband rented a bicycle and enjoyed riding the bike path around the entire island. It is a wonderful bike path that is shaded by awesome oak trees most of the path and fantastic scenery! We enjoyed seeing the deer who are native to the island and are not too skiddish of people and dogs walking close by. We highly recommend a visit to Jekyll Island to stay at Anchors Away! We already reserved our time there for next July! I meant to include that the management staff is very responsive and accomodating.

At home by the beach

This home had everything we needed for a relaxing time at the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed for quick meals, the patio was a great gathering spot and the neighborhood was quiet. We really appreciated being able to walk to the beach access and just a quick drive into town to shop or get ice cream. Perfect for our family!

Wonderful stay on Jekyll Island

We had an amazing week on Jekyll Island! The house is exactly as described, but better! We enjoyed the back patio and the grill, out puppy enjoyed hanging out in the fenced backyard, and I really appreciated the Tupperware. We cook a lot on our vacation and having storage for leftovers was a game changer. The location is fantastic, it is a very short walk to the beach and the neighborhood is quiet. We saw deer in the neighborhood pretty much everyday. We loved it and we will be back!

Mother and Sons Getaway

We had an amazing stay at this property and can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, everything was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully maintained. Communication with the property manager was top-notch—prompt, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay.The home itself is a true gem. The open and airy sunroom quickly became our favorite hangout spot, offering the perfect place to sip morning espresso (thanks to the well-stocked espresso station!) while watching the local wildlife wander by. The superior air conditioning kept us cool and comfortable, even during the hottest afternoons, and the excellent water pressure in the showers was such a treat after a day at the beach.Speaking of the beach, the property’s proximity made it super easy to stroll or cruise over using the provided beach cruisers. The inclusion of beach chairs, a gas grill, a wine fridge, and even a chest freezer made everything so convenient and comfortable. We also appreciated how pet-friendly the home is—our furry family member felt just as welcome as we did.The kitchen was impressively well stocked, making cooking a breeze, and the internet connectivity was strong and reliable—perfect for staying connected or streaming movies at night. All in all, this home was a dream, and we are already planning our return visit. Thank you for sharing your beautiful slice of paradise with us!

Trip to Jekyll for wedding

Our daughter had a small wedding on Driftwood beach and this place was perfect for the family since it was close to everything. The house is tastefully decorated and has lots of natural light which was perfect for the bride to get ready and for pictures. The layout of the home is nice with spots to relax and gather. I would stay here again next time I am in Jekyll.

Hidden gem on Jekyll for families with pets

This fantastic property was perfect for our family vacation! It was clean, modern, and beautifully decorated. The three bedrooms and two sitting areas allowed us to spread out, and the six seater table was great for dinner! They even had a water and food bowl for our doggo! The back patio has beautiful lighting, and the yard is fenced. Loved the location (two blocks from the beach). Can’t wait to return!
