Wonderful Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend at the property. The home was cozy and clean. We spent time in the community pool and rode the provided bikes down to the pier. The owner was wonderful to work with and very quick to reply. Wonderful place to stay for a relaxing weekday weekend.

Great stay

The townhome was nicely decorated and had plenty of space for my family. The property manager was great and very responsive. We really liked feeding the turtles. One of the bedrooms backed up to a road that could be busy at night so we wore ear plugs at night. Other than that everything was perfect!

Perfect for the Weekend

The property was overall really decent. Fortunately SSI is relatively small so this rental was centrally located and super easy to get to places on the island. The turtles were pretty cool, too! I live on the coast but there are just so many turtles here and a few massive ones which was neat to see over the deck. The beds were comfy, but there is no TV in the guest room. I do wish there was access to the amenities listed in the description but unfortunately there was no key in the bowl on the kitchen counter as instructed to retrieve the bikes, beach toys, etc. I think housekeeping was just in a hurry perhaps since there were still towels in the dryer so maybe they forgot to put the key back. I hope they changed the shower curtain liner after we checked out because that thing was covered in mildew. I read somewhere on the checkin packet there was a water filter in the fridge but there was not. Overall no big deal but certainly a few things overall that were not provided that said there would be. We still had a great time and would use this same rental company again, as well as the unit.

So so

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I my rental is until April 18 so I am still here for a while. I did not find the condo set up for a long term rental. There were Knick knacks, framed homilies, parrots and mermaids everywhere, making it difficult to cook and find storage for my things. The bikes have flat tires that was brought to the manager’s attention but nothing was done. The ceiling fans were filthy and pots were put away dirty. Also, with the exception of a stove top cleaner, there are NOcleaning products and only one dish towel. We are enjoying our time in St Simons but the condo has presented challenges, work and expense.

This place was so clean and accommodating for our trip on St. Simon. We loved the location as well as the place itself! The outdoor shower was perfect for getting the sand off and the pool here was very clean and nice! We loved the easy check in/ Check out! We will definitely try to book with them again for our next St. Simon trip! ❤️

We booked this place for a last minute getaway and to bring our son for his first beach trip. The location of the condo was perfect, everything was within a 5 minute drive. We loved our stay at this place. It was perfect for our family! Our son loved feeding the turtles off the deck as well

Quaint & All you needed

My family of 4 stayed and we had everything we needed. A comfy 3 day stay. While here we used the pool and fed the turtles while venturing out to the beach, did some pier fishing/crabbing and enjoyed several local restaurants and shops. A blast was had by all. The condo was very nice & well maintained. We will be back.

I really thought it was a very nice condo, alot of the things they said we would have access, wasn't available. Furniture in condo was broken, flooring in kitchen area lifting almost fell, bugs coming and going in kitchen area. Patio chair was broken, big hole in one of bedrooms. WOW, can't say anymore.no bikes for the kids to enjoy. I hope no one else has to experience this on their vacation.

Not the greatest

Overall the property was okay, found bugs in the utensils drawer, the grill looked like it hasn’t been cleaned ever, we wanted to go ride the bikes and was a heavy crate on top of it. Outside shower needs to be replaced has mold all over it. Definitely will be finding a different spot to stay next time

Lovely home

This is a lovely home. Everything you can think of was in the kitchen; so much so that there wasn't any space to put our food. It was a little overcrowded with decorations. My husband enjoyed feeding the turtles off the back deck. We have US Cellular phone service and only 2 places you can use it at the house; be aware of that. We had an issue during our stay and Miss Brooke was very understanding and helped us out quickly.

Turtle feeding cool. But lots of road noise as off busy streets

Too dusty and cluttered for us. Not much counter space for meal prep and no pot holder/oven glove, parchment paper etc. constant road noise day and night. Pool was not clean. Couch had tears in it.
