Great place by the beach!

This house fit 13 people quite easily, and the elevator was much appreciated since one of our party was recovering from ACL surgery. Very close to the state park also!

High surf!!

Sun of a Sailor was perfect for us. Spacious and comfy. Deck furniture was great for meals and just relaxing with coffee and cocktails! Sunset Beach at St George is my favorite 🏝🐬 We couldn’t use our kayaks and paddle board because of the bra high surf. Otherwise, our stay was perfection!!

Amazing house

The property/house was amazing! My husband and I had our 4 kids and their significant others join us for family vacation. We had plenty of space and privacy for each couple. Kids all in their 20s. Beachfront views and pool were very nice. The kitchen table was long enough for all of us.would like to stay again sometime. There wasn’t much going on being in the offseason and weather wasn’t ideal but we still had a great time. 2large refrigerators was also a plus. One for food and one for drinks!

Sun of a Sailor exceeded our expectations! The interior is beautifully decorated, well maintained, and extremely comfortable. The main living area has HUGE wall to wall windows with amazing views of the Gulf. I didn't pick up on this from the listing, but the kitchen has TWO refrigerators! And there's a third fridge on the ground level that's perfect for beach drinks! The elevator is very useful for unloading and loading, we did not have any issues. The multi-level porches were well furnished and relaxing. You have direct access to the beach, not a long walk at all. This gated neighborhood has beautiful, well kept grounds, especially the pool area with all the blooming oleander. I 10/10 recommend and hope to visit Sun of a Sailor again!
