Wonderful property

Serenity now is an excellent home. Short walk to the beach. Very clean home. We took our 2 poodles with us and I think they really enjoyed laying on the balconies. I would absolutely recommend this home to anyone.

Safety Concern with 3 rd floor staiway barrier

My main concern was that a small child became climb over the couch in the third floor den and fall into the main starwell. It almost happened to my grandson! In addition we had an issue with the kitchen garbage disposal not constantly working. Several lightbulbs in the bathrooms and stairs well were burnt out. There are no keys but you must constantly use a 10 digit pin to lock and unlock the main door

Wonderful House. Didn't need anything.

This house was very clean, the beds were extremely comfortable and it is within walking distance to the beach and only a little over a mile to the grocery store and restaurants on the island. We loved it! It does have lots of stairs so if you bring someone with disabilities or an elderly person you might want to consider that. You walk up stairs to get in, then you have the bedrooms, you walk up another flight of stairs to the kitchen and living room. It is a beautiful home. I would stay here again.

Absolutely lovely!!!

We came to St George Island to celebrate our 24th anniversary. This home is so comfortable!! We loved that we could bring our little fur baby along. The balconies and the views were amazing! Long walk on the beach made our day! Beds are so comfy and the kitchen is so well stocked! Having a washer and dryer was nice! The local team was so welcoming and wonderful to work with! Can’t say enough good things about this home, the staff and the community! Will be back!!

September stay

Kitchen supplies could use an update and cull. Too many glasses and dishware, (2wine glasses)there is no place to pantry your things. Toilets need to be replaced with comfort ht. Stair rails are one visit away from pulling off the wall. This above is not to say we did not enjoy the home, we did. Just want folks to be know conditions.

Beautiful Home

Half of our week we had rain, so we were very appreciative to have this beautiful home and swimming pool. The covered double decks were a great place to view the Gulf and sunrise and sunset, and they overlooked the pool. The pool was nice size and professionally cleaned. The home was well stocked including hand soap, bar soap, trash bags, dishwasher soap and linens. Plenty of kitchen pans and dishes. When we arrived, the code we had did not open the door. We called Vacasa and the issue was resolved.

Great Family Vacation!

We were very comfortable in this home that provided everything we needed to enjoy our stay on St. George Island. The house is open and sunny and welcoming. It was convenient to everything on the island. The walk to the beach was easy, the walking/biking path convenient-we rented bikes and a paddle board and had fun exploring land and sea. We found the people living or vacationing on the island among the most friendly that we have experienced on vacation. We definitely would love to return some day!
