Perfect location to relax on the beach and enjoy the quieter life of St. Simons with our senior dog. Appreciate the cleanliness and good communication of host. While there’s only a starter set of household supplies, it was easily enough for the stay. Included beach chairs and a TON of beach towels which was helpful!

Cleanliness

Tthe property was bright and inviting. The location was also very convenient as it was between good restaurants and the pier. It was very close to the beach, and the drive to jekyll was amazing. However, there was mold in the washer. I understand it is a very moist environment, but it may have been skipped over during the reset. Other than that, it was a very pleasing visit, and we cannot wait for the next time we return.

Great Central Location for Family and Pups

Everything about our stay was amazing. The property was very clean and well maintained. We felt really comfortable and safe through out the stay and our pup did too. We were only 80 yds away from beach access and the morning sunrises were epic. The property had all we needed and more for the beach. The best part about the location is how central it is to all that St. Simon’s has to offer. It was our first family vacation bringing our dog and overall we had an amazing trip. We will be back again and hope to book this same location in the future.

Winter Blues No More

House was great and so was St. Simon’s! House was clean, easy check-in and check-out, stocked with linens, towels, and beach gear. House is just 100 steps to the beach, which was a real treat! Also very walkable to downtown or the local brewery! We especially enjoyed sitting on the deck (there are two) and soaking in the afternoon sunshine. We will be back!

Perfect location

The location is perfect, literally steps to the beach & a short walk to nearby restaurants. We had our dogs with us & they settled really well, the front balcony was probably their & our favourite spot! Ideal spot for a morning coffee & perfect for a glass of wine later. The host was very responsive to any questions I had & were very clear with check-in & checkout information. The house is well stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Felt very comfortable in the house & I’m sure we’ll be back to enjoy another wonderful trip!

St Simons sisters trip

Wonderful condo! Extremely clean, great location and walkable to restaurants. Fully stocked kitchen, though we didn’t cook much. Large garage for vehicle and nice outdoor area in back. We loved sitting on porches (2 upstairs/ downstairs). People are very friendly and nice. Quiet location as well. We will definitely use this rental again. Another bonus, was the service to provide umbrellas, lounge chairs , cart and cooler for beach!!
