Hot tub was not in working order. A bit of misleading advertising. It should be noted in the listing.

We were incredibly pleased with our stay at this East Beach house. The location could not be more perfect as it is a very short walk to the beach and just a short drive to restaurants and grocery stores. Also, the house is on a dead-end street so there is little pass-through traffic (very quite spot!). We especially want to thank the owners for allowing pets. Because we could bring Miss Sadee Mae with us, we were able to extend our stay to two weeks. The yard is fenced in and there is plenty of room for your pup to stay safe while outside. If I could change one thing, it would be for the option to pay to have the hot tub and pool heated (hot tub at a minimum). We stayed in October so there were some chilly days. Once we got there, the management team said this was not an option for guests. The management team was good to check in with us and was very responsive to questions. The house is spacious with 4 king rooms (just wow!). No one has to "sacrifice" with a lesser bedroom accommodation because they are all large, comfy and have their own bathrooms. This is such a bonus with the adults. The house was well stocked with all the essentials. The layout of the home is just great with plenty of space. Our family would congregate in the large living room or work a puzzle on the spacious dining room table. Before I pulled out of the driveway to come home, I was already looking at the calendar to see when we could come back. I highly recommend this house!

Wonderful house, swimming pool and location.

We had a fabulous week spending spring break together. The property was described accurately and communication with the property management company was wonderful. The added parking area was very helpful. We would 100% rent this property again.

The house itself is really nice, great location - quiet street near beach access. The description and pictures on VRBO are very accurate. Beds were comfortable, showers worked well. Note that as described, the house is only stocked with essentials - just one kitchen garbage bag, two dishwasher pods, no dish brush/sponge. Back yard is very nice, my son's dog had a great time - we blocked the one small unfenced bit with the trash bin. We did not use the spa - could not get the heater to work and thought I would ask the agent when they returned one of my calls - but they never did call me back. We cooked a lot, all the appliances are very new and work well. Would be nice if there were a few more bath towels and extra blankets. Our issues were with the rental agent - between the owner and VRBO - we never communicated with the actual owner. Prior to booking, Hodnett responded to inquiries fairly quickly. Prior to arrival - they did respond to a question about check in, but not very quickly. After our arrival they never once replied or acknowledged any of my communications. I prefaced everything with not an "emergency" because it was a holiday weekend but it was also my [expensive] vacation. We had problems getting the TV to work, internet issues, running the clothes dryer, and also reported a few minor property damages we noticed on arrival. I received no response from Hodnett - I used the VRBO app, the Hodnett app, and also left voice mails. We did work out the problems, but it definitely detracted from the experience. I have always dealt directly with owners on VRBO - they have always been happy to answer questions by text or VRBO messaging to help us settle in to the property, too bad we had the rental agent instead. St Simon's is a wonderful place to vacation - this house would be very comfortable for families or friend groups - we were 5 adults and one dog.
