Great getaway

Back to the Beach was a wonderful place to stay! It is mere steps from the beautiful beach, and had many amenities. The eclectic decor was enchanting. The home was clean and well-maintained, and kitchen was very well equipped. Provided games and puzzles kept our family entertained every night! Beach chairs and bicycles kept us busy every day. We brought paddle boards to use in Nick’s Hole inside the Plantation. Best of all, Wendy made sure everything was perfect for our stay. We highly recommend and look forward to visiting again.

Piece of paradise

Wendy was absolutely wonderful to work with - very helpful from prior to booking through the last day of trip- very responsive and a caring host! ‘Back to the Beach’ provided a relaxing and fun environment to create a memorable vacation with our family! The home is beautiful, spacious and clean. Bikes, kayak, beach toys/chairs so helpful to have accessible! Fun activities within minutes of our front door from pickleball, corn hole to the pool and fitness center. Our trip to SGI and ‘Back to the Beach’ will remain a special memory close to our hearts!

Awesome place to stay in St. George!

Back to the Beach was our favorite house we've ever stayed in on St. George Island. The rooms are oversized and comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked and the proximity to the beach was amazing. The house is very secluded yet right there at the beach access walkway. The house was clean and everything (like internet!) was in working order. We arrived to a thoughtful welcome basket which was greatly appreciated and all of the instructions for the house, access codes, etc. were clearly displayed. Wendy is a wonderful host and provides a lot of extras like bikes, beach chairs, umbrellas, toys and a cart - it was a dream to go to the beach and not have to bring those items. She is also very accommodating and responsive. 10/10 - great experience!

Great Vacation!

Wendy was wonderful to work with, she messaged us on our way saying that the property was ready early! Great location, secluded, a large lot and a short walk to the beach. All the toys we needed were supplied - bikes, beach cart, chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and even beach towels. The home is very spacious and kitchen was well stocked. Thanks!

Wow!! What an amazing secluded beach and house!

We took our kiddos there for spring break for a much needed rest and some relaxation! The beach is steps away, close enough for our toddler to walk on her own there! The beach was stunning, and isolated for us to enjoy ourselves. The house had such a modern beach vibe, and the living room was a great place for the whole family to get together on the rainy day and play games together. The scrabble game brought us all together! We will have to book again next year!

Beautiful Beach House

We had a wonderful week staying in this home. It is an open floor plan and there are ocean views from every room. And what a great location….steps away from the short boardwalk to the beach! There is everything you could possibly need at this house. Kitchen is stocked, beach chairs, comfortable beds…even tons of games for a rainy day. All the comforts of home at the beach! We look forward to renting this great house again.

About the host

Hosted by Wendy Giovannotto

Host profile image
My Husband and I met 43 years ago as high school sweethearts in New York. We then moved to Atlanta for him to attend Chiropractic college at Life University. Atlanta became our home where we raised our 4 children. We have always loved vacationing with our children and creating memories together. We truly enjoy spending time together as a family! My husband and I always promised each other one day...we would get back to the beach! The time finally came, our dream became a reality "Back To The Beach". After 9 years of ownership, many fun trips and countless memories. We decided we wanted to share it with others so they could experience St. George Island as well.
We hope you create the best memories in our home with your family and friends during your stay at Back To The Beach!
