Beautiful home! We loved the gorgeous interior, felt like a brand new home. Location is the very best, right on the beach boardwalk, Pool is great, screened tiki bar is an added bonus. We can't wait to go back to Sal Vida!

Lovely house near the beach

We had a wonderful week. In 30 years of renting on SGI, this was the nicest place we ever stayed. Beautiful house, across the street from the beach, with a private pool. A very special place, the recent renovations shine.

Our week at St George

We had a very relaxing and fun week at St George. The home was perfect for our family. Close to walk to the beach. Would highly recommend. On our way out we met the cleaning ladies and commended them on a job well done. The ladies said they loved their job. It for sure showed.

Good Not Great

Location is 5 star. Right at the boardwalk to the sand. Backyard and pool are 5 star...very relaxing. But, the home is all original to like early 2000's if I had to guess. All aspects were fully operational but if you're looking for newer fixtures and nice flooring and Keurig coffee, this isn't it. All in all good for the price.

The house was lovely. Well furnished and the backyard is gorgeous. We liked the location of the house with a walkway to the beach right there. However, the week we were there the dishwasher was broken. Needed to be replaced soooo we handwashed morning noon and night. Not what I wanted to do. And for the elderly a word of caution...37 steps from car to kitchen. A bit of a haul with groceries and supplies. BUT we did have a great week.

Awesome Vacation!

This house was perfect for us and our fur baby Miller. The location was great. We could walk across the road to get to the beach, and had a decent view of the beach from the kitchen. The private pool was beautiful, cleaned everyday. It was positioned where most of the day you could get some sun and the end of the day there was some shade provided by the nice palm trees surrounding it. The house and everything in it was very clean and kept very nice. We have stayed in a lot of houses and some could take a note from this one book. A very short drive and walk to the jetty. We found a perfect little cove to have a beach day, where we fished, swam, explored and relaxed. The house had everything we needed from a fully equipped kitchen to family games, plenty of linens, soap, shampoo and conditioners in every bathroom and lots of towels. This exceeded our expectations! We were very happy vacationers! We would recommend this house to anyone! We will be coming back for a third trip to St George Island!

Not as advertised

It advertises 5 bedrooms, but their are only 3 real bedrooms. Another is a room with Murphy bed but a/c doesn’t work in there. The other “room” is a nook in main living area with a pull out. The two so-called rooms upstairs only has a half bath in kitchen. No shower., House is older but and has not been kept up. Carpet is absolutely awful. It’s a dog friendly house, but…. I would not recommend to a friend. I do not like giving bad reviews btw!

Great house and pool with close beach access!

Enjoyed our stay at Sal Vida! Master King Suite is very nice - private patio access (a ceiling fan on the patio) would be good. Small King Suite is nice. We did not use the room with 3 bunk beds (sleeps 6) but would be great for kids. The living/dining area was great! Also has a separate bar area! 1/2 bath is in the living/dining area. The Tiki Room offered option for happy hour on a few days (screened in with ceiling fan). Outside shower in tiki room is roomy with hot and cold water!! The pool and pool area is fabulous! Beach access is right in front of the house. Two covered parking spots. We had other family join us for the week. They stayed at Dolphin`s Watch - close beachfront property.
