YOUR JEKYLL ISLAND VACATION HOME
Sundowner is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath Jekyll Island rental home on the marsh side of the island. With vaulted ceilings, bold color, and a view of the Sydney Lanier Bridge from your front firepit, this home is anything but ordinary. Two full living rooms (one with a full-sized pool table), a wall of glass sliders, and wide-open sightlines make it perfect for groups who want space to spread out without splitting up. You're close to everything—but far enough to get away with anything.

Looking for something to do your first afternoon? Book a spot on Jekyll Island Dolphin Tours, recently named TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best for boat tours in the U.S. Bring a cooler and whatever you’d like to sip on. Dolphins are basically guaranteed—but even if they bail, you’ll still have fun and a view to remember.

SLEEP IN ON JEKYLL ISLAND
• Sleeps 8 comfortably across 4 bedrooms
• The Flower Room: King bed, smart TV, private en-suite with walk-in shower
• Golden Room: Queen bed with attached bath and sunny style
• Orange Room: Queen bed, patio access, and playful color-blocked corners
• Blue Room: Twin beds, coastal art, and bright natural light
• Every bedroom has closet space, blackout shades, and plenty of personality
• There's mischief in this home. It works great for groups, couples, and is family-friendly—if your family’s anything like ours

JEKYLL ISLAND OUTDOOR LIVING
• Firepit seating under live oaks, with a marsh view and the bridge in the distance
• Front and back patios with sun and shade options
• Palms, pines, and privacy in every direction
• Private driveway with room for 5 cars
• Located on quiet Riverview Drive

Get out and eat out. Start with Zachary’s Riverhouse—just a 7-minute drive away—and make sure to sit outside. Order wild Georgia shrimp while the sun sets over the marina. For something a little louder, head to The Wharf for a low country boil with live music right on the water. Or slow things down with brunch at The Grand Dining Room inside the Jekyll Island Club, just 2.2 miles away. Built in the 1880s as a private resort for the Rockefellers, Morgans, and Vanderbilts, it now serves white-tableclothed, elegantly indulgent fare with flair—prepared for those with taste, but priced for those with sense. Worth every cent.

If you're up for a little adventure, grab a cruiser from Beachside Bike Rentals and explore the island’s 25+ miles of trails. Driftwood Beach is a 5-minute drive and feels like stepping into a black-and-white photograph. Horton Pond, just six minutes away, is your best shot at spotting an alligator. The bird sanctuary hidden inside the Jekyll Island Campground is only four minutes away and always full of life. Just go in. You’re allowed. Trust me. And if you like your detours weird and wonderful, make time for the Jekyll Island Amphitheater Ruins—1.6 miles from the house and completely overgrown, graffitied, and haunting in the best way.

    Tammy M from Canton, Michigan recommends this vacation rental

    This is a great house with wonderful sunset views. The fire pit is nice to have. The decor simply makes you smile when you walk in - such a fun vibe. Kitchen and pantry are stocked better than any house we’ve rented. Nice Turkish beach towels; comfy bed in MBR. LOVED all the artwork, especially the Penley pieces.

    a guest from Woodruff, SC recommends this vacation rental

    We had a wonderful time at this home. It had everything we needed and plenty of room. The kitchen was well stocked. The house was clean and close to everything. We enjoyed the doors that opened up in the evening as we watched the sunset. The property agency was helpful during Hurricane Milton. The house is about a mile walk to the Horton House historic site and another mile from Driftwood Beach. There are paths right out the front door to enjoy the views even more. We definitely will be back.

    Nicholas R from Pasadena, California recommends this vacation rental

    Our family gathered from across the country for Easter weekend on Jekyll and we had a wonderful time. The house is impeccably decorated with touches from around the world. The couches and beds are extremely comfortable. There are tons of cooking utensils and equipment which was great as we cooked every meal at the house. Only issue we had was with the ice maker.

    Jason K from SAINT AUGUSTINE, Florida recommends this vacation rental

    What an awesome house! It was vey spacious and well laid out. The art work through was fun to look at and my wife even feel in love with one particular piece hanging in the dining area. The back yard was in full bloom with Azalea which seemed to attract a large variety of birds. The only issue, and this is just the nature of Jekyll Island, was that we weren’t able to enjoy opening the window wall as the gnats were thick as thieves. Other than that, it was a wonderful stay and Emmons was quick to respond to any questions or issues. I would definitely stay at this home again.

    Leyla C recommends this vacation rental

    The view from the fire pit looks like a painting. The home is quite fancy, but instead just feels like the cool kid’s house on a TV show. This was a really unique and special experience for my family. Whoever put this house together wanted you to get something memorable and out of the ordinary. Definitely coming back.
