Great getaway!

We loved our time on Sapelo. Beautiful beaches to explore. The house is great. Very clean and well appointed. We loved the large front porch. Todd helped us get acclimated before the ferry and made sure our getaway was special. We got some meals from Barbara which was nice since you have to bring all your food with you. Chris gave us a tour of the north end of the island which was interesting to see.

Perfect Vacation!

Our stay was amazing! We ordered meals ahead of time from Barbara. They were delicious and delivered to our door. We were practically the only ones on the beach. During the busiest time, we shared miles of beach with 10 other people. Todd was extremely helpful and even meet us at the ferry to give us instructions and recommendation for the island.

Serene Stay

The accommodations were just what we needed during this time to gather with family for funeral services for the matriarch of our family with no additional worries. e experienced air conditioning issues. Tod was readily available -by phone- to help us repair the problem, because no AC on Sapelo is extremely uncomfortable. We would recommend this property to future visitors.

Truly Wonderful!

Wow! This is the best vacation we have ever taken. What a special place with such kind and helpful hosts. We saw dolphins and a bald eagle on the way to the island, then had our own dolphin show at the gorgeous beach (that we had all to ourselves). My son is 5 and said this was his favorite trip. The suburban was so helpful and fun while touring the island. The landscape almost didn’t seem real, it was so beautiful. The cabin is perfect. We cannot wait to return!!

Luxury on Sapelo

This house is one of the most amazing places we’ve ever stayed! As soon as you reach the front porch, you feel right at home. We had literally no issues with The house or golf cart or bikes. The locals are super friendly. You feel so comfortable and relaxed within the first few hours, you never want to leave! When I return to Sapelo Island, this is the only place I will stay. Edward is an amazing host! Chris and Barbara Bailey are super nice, available and extremely knowledgeable. We loved the entire experience!
