THE SPACE

From the living spaces and main bedroom, you'll have breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean, where you can watch ships sailing by. Imagine starting your day with a cup of coffee or ending it with a glass of wine, all while listening to the soothing sound of waves crashing along the shoreline.

The pool at After Dune Delight is the perfect spot to cool off after a hot and sunny day at the beach. And during the cooler months, you have the option to heat the pool for added comfort.

Speaking of the beach, there is a convenient public beach entrance just steps from the back of the home. Keep in mind our beach is tidal and can be accessed at lower tides.

Whether you're seeking relaxation or the adventure of our little island, After Dune Delight offers the perfect retreat for your vacation. Book your stay today and experience the best of St. Simons Island.

Great house in great location!

by Ann
The house was comfortable and well equipped. The large screened porch overlooking the water, was where we spent many relaxing hours! The location is great. In addition to being beside the beach, it was only about a 5 minute walk to the Village, where there are many excellent restaurants! We plan to go back next year!

What an amazing vacay!

by April
We absolutely loved staying in this home on St. Simon. Such a great home and set up perfect for a vacationing family. Loved having most bedrooms downstairs. The bunk room was incredible. Loved the pool!!! Absolutely everything about it was just right!! Cant wait to visit again! Plenty of beach by noon when tide was out. Walking to everything. Perfect!

Great location and nice house!

by Jeanette
This was a nice home with great floor plan and location! The view was amazing from the porch! Our group was 75-14 yo and all had a great time. The swimming beach was just a short drive away and the village was a short walk or golf cart ride away. We would definitely rent this home again!

Views Galore!

by Jan
Great location! So close to Village. The house has beautiful ocean views and easy access to beach during low tide.

Great location, great views

We had so much fun and the surrounding area with maintained yard, parks nearby was so clean and quiet. The private deck and screened porch were our favorite part of the stay.

Huge house with a lot of space and amazing location next to the water (& beach when the tide is low!) and shops and restaurants. Check in and out was seamless with clear instructions, as well as the house is stocked with basics for cooking.

Great location to walk downtown and the lighthouse.

Enjoyed the house, in a fabulous location walking distance to shops and restarurants.

Great location, beach steps away, lighthouse a block away and short walk to quant town with shops and restaurants.

Excellent Rental

by Allison
So many great things to say about this home!!! Convenience was key, close to village, close to beach, our own private pool, use of deck overlooking ocean at high tide!!! Loved having the ice machine. Loved the screened in porch! Beds were all very comfortable. Management checked in with us several times to see if we needed anything!! Would HIGHLY recommend.

5 Stars!!

by Ashlyn
After Dune Delight was a perfect fit for our family and fur babies! Plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable and very conveniently located. When we arrived, the house was clean and music was playing making it very welcoming. We did have to contact management to bring us more wash cloths, as there were only 3 for the house. Management was very responsive and fixed any issue right away. Having the shared deck next to the ocean was great, since the pool is shaded by trees. Although pool maintenance came frequently, be prepared to skim the pool and sweep the surrounding concrete daily due to the trees. Overall great stay and we would love to visit again!

Wonderful stay on St. Simons Island!

by Elizabeth
I traveled to St. Simons with my husband, three children (ages 13, 11, and 8), and our dog for spring break this year. When we arrived at the home on Sunday evening, dolphins were jumping and splashing right outside our back door, and the pool was already heated and ready for us. The house was spotless with lots of room for all of us. We particularly loved the screened-in porch, where we ate most of our meals and enjoyed the view of the ocean. The house shares a deck on the water with another home, and we spent some time on the deck almost every day while the kids played on the beach or when we were watching dolphins during dinner. We loved watching the tide come in and out, and the public beach was never crowded and right outside our back door. We also enjoyed the nearby lighthouse and public park. The house truly could not have been more convenient for restaurants and attractions. We rode our bikes to the other end of the island almost every day, and we loved the pool within a fenced-in yard for our dog. All in all, it was just what we needed as a family, and we hope to come back soon!

Spring break.

Nice house in a great location. We walked to lighthouse, pier, and the village often.

Beautiful home in an amazing walkable location. Gorgeous views of the ocean too! Super quick and helpful communication with the host as well as a thoughtfully put together guidebook for activities and restaurants in the area.

This is a great spot. The bunk room downstairs is fantastic and comfortably sleeps four adults each with their own bed. Location is also really really good. Right on the beach and walking distance to a lot of restaurants and other cool stuff. Would highly recommend this place!

Older Girls weekend!

Our trip was fantastic, everyone had space to relax and enjoy the views and the pool. We had a few questions about the home and our questions were responded to very quickly. I would highly recommend staying at this property! Great for kids and families.

Wonderful location and beautiful house. Loved every minute.

Online Review

by Lynda
The house has wonderful view of water! And walking distance to many places of interest including restaurants. There is no place for sitting in the sun, although nice screened porch. The pool is lovely but is totally shaded and requires $$ to have heated. My major disappointment was the furnishings! The photos look charming, but the sofa needs replacement and the linens are worn, certainly not five star. This place is all about location!

Home Run!

by Douglas
The house was all that it could be in the location, and design. We loved being located so very close to downtown and the beach. The house is very nicely decorated with new linens and kitchen utensils. We loved every part of it.. We did have a bit of any issue with the coolness of the lower bedrooms and would suggest perhaps taking a large fan for the last bedroom downstairs as the a/c does not cool it as well as the rest of the house. Management was very quick to answer our call but it is the design of the house and we are post-menopausal... Love the island !

Great location plenty of space

Online Review

by Lindsay
This was the perfect place for a family vacation. Upon arrival the tide was quite high and we were wondering where the beach was, however once it went down there was the beach just steps away from the back porch! It is the perfect location to be right near all of the restaurants/shops/etc. but tucked back on a street that was private and quaint. If you plan on bringing little ones I suggest a baby gate because the main living level has stairs leading to downstairs bedrooms. The private pool was amazing and we probably spent more time there than we did at the beach. If we ever visit again we will definitely stay here-great trip!

Online Review

by Tiffany
Close to the beach, lighthouse, shopping and dining areas. Pool is small but usable for about 4 people, however, it is fully shaded so you have to go the beach to get sun. A lot of space for people to sleep, maybe even multiple families but the common areas would not comfortably accommodate as many people as the house can sleep. We had an enjoyable stay but I would say the pictures make it look better than it does in person.

Everything that is needed for a great stay is provided. The ocean front view, decks, pool, restaurants, bars, shops, beds were so comfortable, great for our family.

Wonderful Week!

by Suzanne
We had such a wonderful time on our vacation at this property! The location was ideal for us as we had several small children which made such close access to beach, water park, playground and village such a blessing. There was plenty of space for our family group, and we all loved the beachside porch....especially for nightly relaxation after kids were down for the night. We were a bit concerned about a "tidal beach" but all worked out well as we just flipped our outdoor time between the beach and the pool. It would have been nice to have a larger refrigerator in the kitchen. Since our group included smaller children, we ate in for all meals and did no dining out. We found it necessary to supplement with ice chests for cold storage during the week. Also, the master bedroom was a bit warm so a box fan was purchased to help circulate the air in that space. Just a couple of minor inconveniences, but certainly nothing that wasn't manageable. Also, it should be mentioned that even though the rental info offers 'shared access', there really didn't seem to be any "sharing" of the deck overlooking the beach. We actually met the owners of that property who did not mention sharing as an option since there is a locked gate requiring a code. Again, no problem for us as the screened porch offers a great view of the ocean. Overall, we enjoyed the property immensely, will look forward to staying again, and would highly recommend.

Awesome getaway!

by heather
We and another family (4 adults & 5 children, ages 8, 8, 6, 5 & 1 and a dog) had an amazing getaway at this St. Simons house! It was exactly the change of pace we needed during this crazy time! The home was as advertised. It appears that the owners have recently updated the home (fresh paint smell!). The bunk room on the lower level was amazing! It's spacious & the steps with cubbies to the top bunks are a great touch! Youll want to note that one of the bedrooms on the lower level has the pool pump right outside of its window & can be noisy. We put the dogs crate in that room for this trip so it didnt bother us. Also worth noting is theres no actual dining room - there is a dining table you can extend out in the living area, but theres also the high top table on the screen porch which the kids used, and loved! The screen porch is perfect & we loved sitting out there listening to the waves at night! The master bedroom is on the second floor with the kitchen & living room, and has a huge closet - big enough for our son to sleep in in his pack & play! Having the pool was perfect, and really is a must as you do not have direct beach access during high tide, so be sure to look up the tide tables for your trip. The pool is advertised as heated, however the heat would not remain constant. We had the property manager come out to turn it on & they showed us how to use the controls, but we could not figure out how to keep the hot tub actually hot during our stay. Thankfully the kids didnt mind, and thoroughly enjoyed the pool! We got the sense that we may be some of the first renters since the home has been updated, and we did have a few suggestions for making this rental more comfortable, but these in no way took away from our enjoyable experience! In the bunk room, it'd be great if there was a bit more storage for clothing (currently only 1 dresser). The whole house, especially the lower level, could use some more floor rugs in the hallways. We especially could have used these when coming in from the pool, as the kids slipped quite a bit on the wet floor. Even some extra towels wouldve been nice to be able to use to dry the floors. We also wished there were more bath mats for showers & bath rugs for the tile. We also couldve used a broom for both the pool area outdoors, and for general tidying indoors. In the kitchen, we really wouldve appreciated some food storage/tupperware. Overall this house is a great find & a great location!

Nice!

Pool Area

by Carmen
The house and location is perfect. I would suggest leaving a broom or something so that the pool area can be swept daily. Or remove some trees. Lots of leaves around the pool

Not really a private deck

by Steve P.
We enjoyed the house a lot. We know they spray for bugs as there were several large dead ones laying around the house (not sure how good the housekeepers are). The ice machine is a fabulous touch. The property lacks hot water in the kitchen (the water didn't get hot enough to wash dishes in the dishwasher). The master shower is wonderful with a lot of pressure. Love the back porch and the view of the water. The location is great and close to the downtown area and the lighthouse. Regarding the "Private Deck" for sunning ... there was another group that claimed that they owned the deck and had the combination to the lock and also used it nightly with a group from 6-8 adults each night. That was disappointing. We didn't feel that it was our place to dispute it as they did have the combination to the lock. Other than that we DID enjoy the property.

Ready to go back again!

by Rick C.
This was the perfect house in the perfect location for our family! The house is nestled in the live oaks which provided enough shade to make the screened porch very pleasant, even in July, but still provided great views of the water and the tidal beach. The house is well furnished and we had everything we needed, including a wet bar with an ice machine and a wine fridge. Before the trip, we thought about renting bikes, but it was so close to the restaurants and shopping, we were able to easily walk. Even the lighthouse was just a block away! The best review came from our two hard-to-please teenagers who said they want to go back again!

Amazing house and lication

by Marie C.
If we could give this six stars on a scale of 1 to 5 we would. We spend hours on the pier/deck watching dolphins and the tide come in and go out. The screened porch was amazing And the location could not be more perfect. We will definitely be back!
