Guest Review

by Amanda
Not knowing the island, and where to stay, we picked this spot based on the fabulous photos and description. We were blown away by how great of an Airbnb this ended up being. The location was awesome, very close to everything! Walkable to the beach, close proximity to dining and shopping, and the homes in the surrounding area were spectacular. We enjoyed all of the details inside of the home, and the attention to making sure everything was there that would be needed for a great beach get-away! The historic touches added a sense of nostalgia to the experience and really made you feel like you were staying in a quaint yet modern-day beach cottage! The wrap around porch was awesome, the beds were comfy and there were plenty of extras that included beach towels, bath towels, and beach chairs. Would definitely stay here again! Ryan was very responsive through the whole process. Thank you for a great experience!

by Kim
I appreciated the ease and efficiency of the booking, check-in, and checkout process which allowed us to slip into vacation mode and enjoy our time. The house was also very clean and comfortable. The bed was comfortable and allowed us to get a good night's rest for a full day of fun at the beach and exploring the area.

Wonderful stay in East Beach Neighborhood

by Bernard
Tastefully decorated, easy access to the beach, relaxing porch and wonderful trees in the yard. This was such a peaceful and comfortable place for my family to spend time together just enjoying the beauty of the St Simons community.
