Weekend Trip

We were looking for somewhere for a weekend stay, and I found this listing on VRBO. The room was clean, but very outdated. There were no sheets or pillowcases for the pullout bed, so we had to run somewhere and purchase them! Also, be prepared to walk over a mile through water and marsh to get out to the beach! That part isn't shared with you! So, you have to drag everything through mud puddles and grass to even get to the beach!

Great family getaway

Complex is on the beach, with a cute pool that was clean. Easy to walk to great restaurants! Our condo was perfect for our family, and we loved the balcony.

perfect beach getaway

No ocean view from condo. Condo was clean with adequate supplies, but dated. Beds were very comfortable. New carpet or tiled floors in the bedrooms would be nice. Current carpet was old and stained. None of the security gates were closed. Access to the beach was unpleasant, very wet and marshy with horrific mosquitos. Had to drive to other beach accesses to avoid them. We very much enjoyed the beach and all the shops, historical sites, etc. We will definitely come again to enjoy this beautiful island

Family weekend

I was happy with the building however in order to get to the beach from the location you had to walk through a swampy marsh. My children, sister and I were covered in mosquito bites just from walking to the beach and back.

Great girls weekend!

A couple friends and I were looking for a central place to meet and spend a long weekend and in spite of quite a bit of rain during and prior to our stay we had an amazing time and the location and condo was perfect for our needs. We appreciated some of the extra touches in the kitchen and how well equipped it was. We will definitely consider staying again! For future guests, be aware that if it has been very rainy and there’s standing water that the bugs will be really bad as you’re walking out to the beach especially early in the morning and late in the evening. We were still able to go enjoy the beach though! We were just strategic about it.

Great place on SSI

Very happy with this condo. While it didn't have a view of the ocean you just had to walk out your front door to see it! Enjoyed being on the 3rd floor so no one above you and also unit 309 is a corner unit so it's very quiet! Beautiful complex, nice pool, secure, lots of parking and nice walk to beach access. If you are looking for a beach vacation in SSI this one is pretty awesome!

1st GA visit

The property was a perfect fit for our family. Was even better when we found out there was an elevator on the property since our vaca was during an extremely hot week. The location to the beach was wonderful! Would def rent again if ever returning to the area

This is an older condo with small units. Perfect for a short stay; for a longer stay or more than two people I would prefer a bit more space. But the location was perfect and had all that we needed.

Great location! Relaxing

Unit was conveniently only a short walk from the beach. Beach was very clean. View from 3rd floor deck was beautiful! The 2 bedroom unit was nicely updated. Great for my family of 5. Bed mattresses could use to be replaced. The couch cushions were worn and sunk in quite a bit. Overall the place was clean and nicely equipped.
