Needs a Little TLC

The location of Seabiscuit is great, a short walk to the cut. The layout and size of the house is perfect but the house itself is getting a little “tired”. Needs to be updated and the kitchen needs new pots and pans. If you rent it be sure to bring your own! The property management people are great and communicate when you need them.

We love the island!

Seabiscuit is in a great location on the island and has a short boardwalk with access to the beach. The kitchen supplies do not accommodate feeding a large family. The cookware and supplies are outdated. There are plenty of dishes to eat on, but cooking to feed 15 was difficult with what was available at the house. The floors were not very clean, our feet were black if we went without shoes inside the house. The sliding glass door to go out on the main level was so difficult to open. You had to barely open it and then push it the rest of way open with your hip, it wouldn't slide. Overall we have stayed in cleaner, more accommodating houses on the island for our large group. Probably would not rent this house again.

Beautiful & spacious

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our stay here. With 3 couples, there was more than enough space for each of us to have our own places to relax - together or apart. Each floor has a great deck for sunrise and dolphin watching! As well, the top floor is huge! A true suite. We appreciated the well-stocked kitchen & loved the icemaker. We would definitely love to stay here again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was in good condition. Using the elevator, someone in a wheelchair could literally go from the top floor all the way to the beach without doing a single step (big advantage for disabled people!)

Nice house needs updates

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beach access was very nice. Interior paint, fixtures, cabinets, some furniture, Microwave falling out of the cabinet, etc.. are in desperate need of updates. Still overall location is what sells the place. I will say I have stayed in several houses on St George island and this was not the best.

Family vacation 2022

My family really enjoyed our week at Turthley Rad. The home could not have been more perfect. It was well appointed and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need. My grandchildren. ages 2 two 3 year olds and a 4 year old had the best time ever. The beach was beautiful and being just steps away was wonderful! The management company was great and very responsive to the few things we needed. All in all, it is one of the best vacations my family has had together.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a very large house. Very spacious, however, you can tell it's one of the older properties and we had several issues happen. First the toilet tank on the top floor completely busted open just trying to flush it and water was everywhere. Second there were a lot of ants. Third, the front door handle kept coming off. Although there were these issues the staff was fairly good at responding, but had trouble getting the right help on the weekend and had to wait til Monday for some repairs. Overall the stay was pretty good.

Great house - great location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were a group of 6 adults and 4 kids. The house is wonderful for big groups. Well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, AC worked really well. Porches are wonderful. Ocean front with it's own good boardwalk accessible by ramp from the ground level for pulling your beach or fishing carts. It is a great house - the only negative is that it needs to be updated/renovated, but that did not detract from our stay at all! Highly recommend!

Great opportunity for family time!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: While two couples of our group were unable to join us, the 9 of us who did stay in SeaBiscuit enjoyed our stay very much - and were talking about another stay next year. The second floor living/dining area was simply great! We had read comments about the stair carpeting, but those are history because it has brand new carpeting over the stairs. The Gulf front location and balconies were perfect to watch the waves roll in. The beds/bedding were very comfortable. Plenty of space for our group to get together; we prepared most of our meals in the well-stocked kitchen. The only item not quite right was the kitchen faucet - it functioned fine, but it was wobbly from when we first arrived; with a deep socket wrench, it should be able to be tightened fine.

Great House For Families

We stayed here with two other families; we each have young children. This house was fantastic! We had plenty of room to spread out and have quiet space when needed, a huge well-stocked kitchen and so close to the beach! This was a great find and we look forward to staying here again.

Seabiscuit - Great Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was large enough to accommodate 3 generations of our family - 8 adults and 8 children easily. The boardwalk gave us direct beach access. Decks were large; seating for meals was plentiful. The kids ate most meals outside. Clean up was so easy. We just hosed off the tables after meals! It is near the end of the Plantation which makes running to the store for a few items time consuming. We made a big grocery run to begin the week. The carpeted stairway - condition and cleanliness - was less than ideal. Tile or wood would be easier for the housekeepers to clean. We had a wonderful week together at Seabiscuit.
