Great week at the beach!
Nice, clean home in a great location within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Beautiful view of the gulf from the porches. Neighbors are very close but was not an issue. Weather was perfect every day we were there. Layout of home was very accommodating for 2 couples allowing for privacy when needed.

This beach house is in the most convenient location. Park your car and never drive anywhere for your entire vacation! Beach access from the back porch to the private beach access. Sit on the porch and watch the sunrise and dolphins swim in the ocean!

It's in the details
We want to come back it was soooo nice and the location is perfect! The little bit of yard or garden area behind the parking area is overgrown and rough on the shins. Walking between the condos was a challenge as well and downed palm tree leaves ripped my ankle open to bleed. The boards need replaced on outer decking and the screws were exposed and cut my grandsons foot open too. If the outside area got as much attention as the inside it would have been much nicer! Oh and the carpet is stained badly in one bedroom.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The island of St George is absolutely gorgeous, the location of the house is perfect, however, the house itself is in need of maintenance, for example, the upstairs a/c unit was NOT working and was 80 degrees. When host was informed by us, she replied that a part was on order, but never informed us before hand that it was not working! I think the worst part that ruined my stay was the smell of dirty dog in the house (and we have a dog), carpeting definitely should be replaced or at the very least, cleaned. Absolutely filthy! Will definitely return to St George, but not this particular house.

Awesome
Want to walk out your door onto sand; or have a most amazing sea view? If so, this place is for you. Extremely well appointed and very clean. Close to everything you need. Neighbors are close, so hopefully yours are as great as mine were. If you're mobility limited, this might not be your place. Otherwise, awesome!

Great location, great experience
Arrived and checked in with no issues. The house was in a perfect location for us, we were within a 5 minute walk of every restaurant on the island, which was great for stretching our legs after plenty of oysters, crab legs, burgers, and bbq. View from the house is excellent, everything was clean and comfortable, have no complaints about our stay!

Wonderful house
This is a wonderful house to stay in. We have now rented it two years in a row and have enjoyed both our stays. We are a family of 8 and it was big enough to accommodate all of us. Just a few short steps from the beach and walking distance to restaurants and shops.

This house was perfectly located within walking distance to restaurants. We enjoyed watching the sunrise/sunset right from the main living area. There are steps, so not for those who would have difficulty. But, the house was otherwise perfect and dog-friendly!!
