Sea Gem is a relaxing cape cod style beach home located about midway inside the St. George Island gated secure community. If you want a quiet, serene, beautiful piece of paradise— then Sea Gem will be perfect for you and your fur babies!

There are two master suites, one on the first floor and the other upstairs both featuring relacing master baths that invite you to let go of your worries and settle into beach life. Vaulted ceilings in the living room provide an open and airy feel. The home features hardwood floors downstairs and carpeted spaces upstairs (for quiet and fur babies comfort). Each bedroom and the main room have flat panel televisions with Dish Network, Fire TV. There are DVD players and a DVD library in case of an inclement day or if someone gets sunburned snd needs a bit of time “in”. Sea Gem has a collection of games and jigsaw puzzles for some family bonding. The kitchen is chock full of anything you could need including both a Keurig and a standard coffee maker. Plus, a local owner a gew blocks away is ready to help if you need anything! If you cannot completely "unplug" there is free wi-fi that can run all your family's devices with no buffering!

Rock away with your favorite book or beverage on the covered front porch, or have lunch on the sun deck below while watching the kids splash in the private heated pool (extra heat fee-available only in Spring and Fall). There is a charcoal grill, enclosed outdoor shower, and even a few beach toys! We have a kayak and a bike or two for the more adventurous travelers! Your linens are all included and there are even beach towels available for your use.

Great Location! Easy walk to beach for little kids. House was stocked with everything needed for the beach which was very nice. Beaches were not crowded at all and the location was very private. Pool was so nice to have and provided a great place to relax and swim. Also, very close to grocery store and restaurants. Wish we would have rented additional bikes for the entire family so that we could have explored the plantation a little bit more.

Family Beach Trip

We had a great stay with three generations, including a 3 month old. We brought our own pack and play, but also used the one provided at the house. Everything was great and the location to the beach was very easy for quick visits.

Lovely Home!

We stayed in this home for 2 weeks and we enjoyed the home very much, it was spacious, clean and well equipped. The pool was very clean as well. Sheryl, the property mgr., was super nice. We brought our 2 little dogs and we all enjoyed hanging on the large porch. We made sure to keep them quiet (with bark collars) to not disturb the neighbors. We could only see a tiny bit of the ocean but we could hear the waves from the porch which was a bonus. We really enjoyed early morning dog walks on the beach and afternoon walks in the neighborhood. All in all, it was a peaceful and fun 2 weeks. We will be back to SGI for sure.

Amazing Vacation

This home is gorgeous and so comfortable. Sheryl is a wonderful host always checking on you to make sure you have everything you need and has lots of info about the island. The home is a very short walk to the beach and she even provides beach chairs. The home was just perfect for the 8 of us!

Family Vacation with Dog

We had a wonderful time at Sea Gem, and Sheryl was so welcoming! She really worked with us to make sure our stay was the best it could be! It was lovely to be able to walk right to the beach, and the house was comfortable and a great place to relax! We definitely plan to make a return trip!

Wonderful Thanksgiving at the beach

The house and pool were excellent. The property had a very tropical private feel with nice views of the gulf and close beach access. Our first time to St George Island and it was great. Hope to return in the future and will definitely consider Sea Gem for our stay. Cheryl is a great host, very responsive and helpful.

We had a lovely week at SGI in the Sea Gem! House was clean and beds were comfy. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you might need for cooking and eating in.

Another wonderful stay at Sea Gem! Our party of 7 (4 adults/3 children) were very comfortable throughout our stay. The kitchen is very well supplied with everything needed.

Fantastic Vacation

Our stay at Sea Gem was amazing. Sheryl was very helpful and the house was lovely - even better than the pictures online appear. The location on St George Plantation cannot be beat! We enjoyed biking, tennis, and the beach which is truly steps away from the house. It was too cold to swim, but the pool looked great too. We will definitely be back.
