This house was fantastic for our group. We had two to a room and slept 14 with no problem. The home had beautiful decor and furnishings and was fully outfitted. Highly highly recommend!

It was so nice to stay at this property. Close to the beach and restaurants. The home was very clean and accessible with all the convenances of home, especially the kitchen which had all the utensils, pots/pans and dinnerware you need to cook your own meals, even spices! The views from the rooftop patio were super nice with a nice ocean breeze at night. The host, Paul, was very responsive and very nice to work with. Would highly recommend this property for your stay at St. Simon Island!

This was our fifth summer at Floataway. We love the house and Paul could not be more attentive.

My extended family (grandparents, adult children, and grandchildren) first stayed at this property in June 2023 and had such a great experience we immediately booked it again for June 2024. Our most recent stay was just as great. The house is the best equipped vacation house I've stayed in, from the kitchen to the bikes and beach gear. It's impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and has everything a large family could need for an excellent trip. It's just a short (3 minute) bike ride to the beach and a smooth easy bike ride to all the island restaurants and shopping. The owner, Paul, was extremely responsive to a few questions we had on our trip. Love SSI and love this house! Will definitely book again in the future!

We are eight college friends that graduated in 1972. We get together every 18 months in a new location to explore and enjoy each other's company. Unequivocally this is the best home we have stayed in over the years. Beautiful home very well appointed and really well stocked with everything you would need to enjoy your stay. We 100% recommend, you will not be disappointed!

12 Friends over 65 had a super time in Saint Simons. This house is just wonderful. The rooftop deck, the ensuite bedrooms, the organization of the kitchen(a label for everything), and the beauty of the decor, and the location were just great. We have already booked another stay we enjoyed it so much!

The property proved to be better than the pictures. High end finishes, beautifully appointed, wonderfully stocked. Perfect location to East End beach.
Paul was super accessible. We had a refrigerator issue upon arrival but in 3 hours on a Saturday afternoon we had a new fridge!! He can work magic. Highly recommend Floataway for your SSI stay

No detail is left to chance at this property. The ground floor includes an outdoor, small lap pool and grill as well as an indoor ping pong table, a dozen beach towels, and a wide wheel beach utility cart for taking gear to and from the beach, a short walk away. All seven bedrooms include television sets and private bathrooms. The main level includes not only a well-supplied kitchen with generous kitchen equipment (such as a griddle, a coffee maker, an electric kettle, a blender, pots, pans, and bowls) but also an open concept eating area and sitting area. Both the second and fourth levels boast a washer and a dryer. An elevator services all four levels. Families and friends cement their best memories at this home.

We have stayed in many vacation homes and this was far and away the best in terms of cleanliness, layout, and convenience. It’s a gorgeous home and has everything that a big family group needs for a fabulous beach vacation. The host was a great communicator as well. We are looking forward to returning next year!

Eleven women (high school friends) gathered for our annual reunion. Floataway was a perfect spot to connect, eat good food, and explore the beautiful area. The home is exquisite, super clean and has so many luxury amenities. There is plenty of room to spread out and enjoy fellowship or privacy. Paul was super-responsive and we have already booked for next year.

This was the second time we have stayed at this property, and like last time, it did not disappoint. House was in perfect shape and the owner was great to work with.
House was equipped with everything we needed and laid out in a manner that was perfect for our large group. Would definitely come back again!

This was a fun exquisite well appointed home. The elevator was the best for husband and father's challenges with stairs. We rented a golf cart to drive around town and easily parked it the garage.
Many fabulous restaurants and fun stores within minutes. Easy walk to beach. Great for a large group. The owner has a nice reading collection that I indulged in. Had a great visit to nearby Jekyll Island also.

Floataway is even better than advertised. This home is spacious, beautifully appointed and incredibly equipped. The owner was attentive and checked in regularly but we honestly did not have any difficulties to resolve. So many memories were made this week, It was hard to drive away on departure day. . We hope to return again someday!!

4.0
Floataway is a gorgeous home, beautifully decorated and fully stocked with pretty much everything -- including beach chairs, beach towels, and bikes. It is hard not to have a wonderful time there. The pool is small and actually in the front of the house -- but that didn't stop our group from using it every day. And most of it is under cover, so we even swam while it was raining. It's a several minute walk to the beach, but a nice public access is just a few blocks to the left if you want to drive. Do NOT use the Olive Way access to the right. Wet and buggy, and sometimes almost inaccessible. Overall, our stay was very, very enjoyable.
5.0
This house was amazing! We had 12 adults and a 3 month old baby. We all had our own bedrooms and bathrooms and having an outdoor shower was a great feature. We will definitely stay here again in the future!

Southern Hospitality at Its Best
Perfect for a large group. So glad we booked this house for ourselves and group of friends! The accommodations couldn’t have been better and Paul was EXCELLENT to work with! This host has everything covered for your stay. We found everything to be as good or better as the description. Beautiful home! And the double set of washer/dryers was perfect…and needed. You won’t be sorry. Thank you Paul. Your southern hospitality was evident with all the amenities, house and communication. We’re coming back

Wonderful!
This home is so beautiful and inviting! Perfect spot - just a quick walk to the beach, close enough to several restaurants for an evening walk or bike ride. Paul is a wonderful host - great communication! We had no problems during our stay.

Perfect Getaway
We were an extended family of 12 ranging in ages. The house had everything for everyone - plenty of beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms, living space and rec space. We enjoyed the ping pong table, the heated pool and the bikes - something for everyone. The house is nicely located near the village and a short walk to the beach.

Women Retreat
The overall process and stay was truly a blessing. The property and pictures online were accurate. It was very clean and dust free; sheets were fresh smelling which is a plus (I travel alot and that is rare). Learning to use the elevator and to locate the sensors were challenging but the property manager was available and attentive by communicating and responding quickly. Definitely a win. We had an awesome time.

Great Place to Stay on St Simon
The house is as gorgeous as advertised. The owner was so amazing during the pandemic planning and re-planning of this vacation.
We had 9 adults in the house at different times & everyone had room to hang-out, nap, play cards, etc.
For anyone looking at accessibility - this house was an excellent choice for us. It is not wheelchair accessible (bathroom doors were too narrow) but it was very accessible to someone who had mobility challenges. We brought our own shower chair for one of the walk-in showers.
We loved the location - just a block off of the beach. The younger adults with us took full advantage of the pool and the rooftop patio - they really appreciated the darkness of the area and being able to see stars so clearly.
