The Stollaway Retreat is magical. I first visited this property two years ago with my childhood friends for a girls weekend getaway. Four women and we each had a private bedroom en-suite (which was clutch for our leisurely mornings and winding down after enjoying the sites around town). Most were walkable.

This time, I brought my toddler to St. Simon’s and enjoyed a “mommy and me” holiday at the Stollaway Retreat. It was magical. My daughter enjoyed the warmed pool most of all and I felt secure with a pool on the property because there is a baby gate on the property that was super easy to install on the back patio. The gate allowed me to feel safe knowing my curious and active little girls couldn’t access the pool without me.

There is also a pool house/guesthouse, where we found beach toys and beach chairs. This was clutch for enjoying the lovely quiet beach located 5 mins from the house. My daughter kept calling the property “our beach house” which warmed my heart because she was so comfortable there.

Lighthouse, as the property manager, were friendly and super responsive to any needs we had (which were few because the house is so well stocked!)

Can’t wait to return to St. Simon’s Island and there’s no place I’d rather stay than this lovely property.

Thank you Tracy! It was great hosting you again.

This property is a dream! The idyllic setting was perfect for a few days to slow down and have some peace & quiet. The photos don't do this home justice, it's immaculately kept and styled to make you feel right at home. The location couldn't be better, walkable to parks, trails, restaurants and everything you need!

This spacious and clean house is located right next to a park and short walking distance to bunch of restaurants and the board walk. my family fit comfortable and enjoyed pool and board games and a lot of quality family time.

Guest Review

by Ryan
This property was exactly as described and what you would expect for the cost. We were able to comfortably fit 4 families on this property to have our annual summer vacation. The king beds and private bathrooms in each bedroom are a complete game changer in that respect. Nobody had to settle for an awkward double bed situation or feel left out. The living area was amazing and open to the spacious kitchen with a beautiful island. The outdoor area and pool were fantastic and a great place for us to relax and catch up with friends/family. We rented golf carts for the week and those were within a 5-7 minute drive to most places we needed to go (restaurants, shops, beach, etc). The hosts were responsive and available via text, all-in-all we had no issues with any part of this stay. We will definitely keep this as an option in coming years!

Stollaway Retreat was great for our family - plenty of space for everyone. The beds were comfortable and we really enjoyed the pool. The kids also enjoyed the games. The home was so convenient to everything and that was a plus!

Wonderful Family Reunion

by Barbie
Loved our stay at Stollaway! A great place for our family reunion! Kitchen and great room was a great gathering space as was the back porch overlooking the pool! Comfy for all of us with 5 bedrooms and 5 1/2 baths! Well be back!

A GEM of a property!

The Stollaway Retreat is a Gemin todays rental world. This beautiful home has all the amenities that a family/friends could ask for large open concept kitchen and great room is perfect for gathering. The kitchen is wonderfully equipped with a 6 burner gas stove with griddle, great for breakfast for a crowd. Our pancakes turned out beautiful. The heated pool, with covered porch and outdoor grill make outdoor entertaining a breeze. The proximity to the Pier Village and restaurants is a blessing. No matter your choice in foods you will find a restaurant to enjoy. The neighborhood is quiet and offers great dog walking areas. There are parks across the street for children to play. The ocean is a short walk away with great public access.

Our family loves St. Simons - this is our 4th visit! The Stollaway Retreat was perfect. The house was incredibly comfortable and spacious - perfect for our family of five. My teen son really loved being able to call the backhouse his own during our stay. Great location - so close to the village and lots of shops and restaurants. Just a lovely stay!

Amazing house in an amazing area.

Guest Review

by Jennifer
This home is excellent. The location is very private but also walkable to restaurants in the Village and Pier area. The house felt brand new and was very well equipped for guests. The layout offers a full bath attached to every bedroom so it’s great for comfortably housing large groups. My favorite is the newly built guest house and pool house. Having a 5th bedroom in a separate pool house allows a second family or grandparents to have privacy. The pool house and large porch make for a fun area for others to enjoy the pool. I would hands down recommend this home for anyone’s vacation.

As regular Airbnb travelers, we were so delighted. I was the primary guest of our group of 5 women. Our group travels together often and we found this house to be one of the nicest and best located of all the places we have stayed. The open floor plan on the first level made the house perfect for all of us to enjoy together. And since every bedroom room has an ensuite bathroom, we were able to have our privacy when we wanted and enough space to convene when we wanted time together. Indoors, we enjoyed the lovely huge farmhouse table, dining, and living spaces together. Outdoors, we enjoyed the heated pool, private yard, and outdoor living room together. Overall, the house feels fresh, very clean, and modern. Next time, I’m bringing my chill parents, golf-obsessed husband, and active toddler! It is an easy walk or bike ride to the shopping and dining village, the pickle-ball courts, the pier, and the lighthouse. Pristine and peaceful, East Beach is just 1.5 miles away.

Like a 5 star resort! Perfect location!

by Tina F.

With 3 families and 3 generations, we were looking for a vacation house to please everyone for a long weekend. Needless to say, we found quite literally the best place ever. The house is walkable to downtown (lots of restaurant options), the local park (playground, pickle ball courts) and the pier. The pool is incredible and we were only a short drive to the beach!

The house was sparkling clean and the bedrooms had everything we needed. The pillows and mattresses were very comfortable. We loved the open concept design of the house. It was perfect for the parents to watch TV while having space for the grandchildren to play in the game area. There was lots of space to take work calls, and quiet areas to read and relax. We especially appreciated the extra large dining table. The entire household could sit together for big family meals. Needless to say, this was the ideal place for our getaway and we can't wait to book again!

My husband, myself, and another couple came to the Stollaway for a fantastic weekend away. Our minds were blown from the time we pulled in the driveway! Not only is the space open, inviting, and beautiful, it was everything we could have asked for! A game area, an inviting living room, and let's get to the bedroom space. The master bedroom had its own private patio and the en suite was spacious and stunning. Every bedroom has an en suite making it perfect for a large family gathering. I am 100% planning on booking again and bringing my entire extended family for some poolside fun!
