About this apartment rental
Current COVID-19 information is provided at the bottom of this listing. Please be sure to read carefully for the latest updates prior to booking . Thanks! ***************************************************** Cute and convenient second-floor vacation condo apartment with wrap-around veranda on West Gulf Beach Drive in the "Town Center" of St. George Island, within walking distance of most everywhere you'll want to go. (NOTE: The adjacent apartment in this building is popular VRBO listing #1282605. The two apartments may be rented together for larger groups upon request.) * BEACH ACCESS: Easy 3-minute stroll down to the beach. Take the shortcut next to the Blue Parrot restaurant, or you can stroll another block down the walking/bike path to the St. George Lighthouse Park / Museum. This public park offers all the free amenities you need for a great day at the beach, including a boardwalk down to the sand, pavilion with picnic tables, public restrooms, outdoor showers, a playground, and even a basketball court. * SLEEPING: 2 bedrooms, each with a king-sized bed, dresser, and ample closet space. * BATHS: 1 spacious full bath with tub/shower, plus one half-bath / powder room off the hall. * KITCHEN: Well equipped kitchen with range, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, dishes, pots and pans, etc. * SITTING PORCH: Deep wrap-around veranda with picnic table, perfect for outdoor dining and watching the seagulls, sunrises, and sunsets! * RESTAURANTS & NIGHTLIFE: Steps away from several of the island's most popular restaurants and bars, including BJ's Pizza next door (sandwiches, salads, pizza, ice cream, and beer), Doc Myers' Island Pub and Sports Bar (open air venue with live music and game nights, just around the corner), Blue Parrot (popular seafood spot almost straight in front of us on beach with outdoor bar), the Beach Pit (also just around the block -- be sure to check them out for breakfast), and Harry A’s (yet another great spot that often has live music — we love their Sunday brunch) * EQUIPMENT RENTALS: Rent just about anything you need for fun directly across the street from Jolly Rogers Beach Shop. Bicycles, kayaks, golf carts, paddle boards, beach chairs, beach towels, fishing poles, jet skis, and more! * ISLAND SHOPS: Groceries, ice cream, shopping, boat charters, visitor information, a pedicure... whatever you need on the island, everything is a short walk away from this perfectly situated vacation home base. * INTERNET/TV: Large HDTV in living room with smart apps (access your own accounts w/Netflix, Hulu, etc.), plus secure, fast cable-based WiFi. ***************************************************** COVID-19 Information: As of May 20, 2020, Franklin County is now allowing limited opening of vacation rentals with the following caveats: * We are not permitted to rent to guests who are traveling from foreign countries or areas in the US that are current or recent COVID-19 "hot spots", defined as communities with more than 500 active cases per 100K residents. When booking, please let us know where you are traveling from and verify your community's current status on the CDC website: https://www.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/index.html * Although there are no guarantees, we will do our very best to thoroughly sanitize the unit in between guests. Our cleaning personnel have made changes to their procedures to adhere as closely as possible to CDC guidelines. If you have any questions or special needs, please let us know! * In general, items such as throw pillows, throw blankets and consumable household/kitchen/bathroom supplies will be temporarily removed from the vacation rental to limit the surfaces that could potentially transmit the virus. There will also be fewer linens and kitchen utensils etc. made available. Basically, anything you might touch during your stay must be cleaned thoroughly, so we are being asked to cut back on the "extras" for everyone's safety. Please consider what you will need to be comfortable during your visit, and make sure to bring your own supplies. * Our cleaning staff is working extra hard and long during this time, and so we do need to adjust our check-in and check-out times to ensure there is an adequate window between guests. Our new checkout time will be 9:00 AM and our check-in time will be 5:00 PM. Thank you for understanding! Even with these protections, please take every precaution when you are visiting the island. Wear masks whenever you leave the apartment, practice 6-foot minimum social distancing wherever you go, and plan to bring your own food, condiments, and other consumable supplies that you may need during your stay. If you do not plan to do these things, please, please do not visit the island during this period! It's important, and it is part of our official "guest rules" at this time. We are so sorry that we must be so strict and that we cannot offer you the usual amenities, but we do want you, our cleaning staff, and everyone on St. George Island to remain safe! If we all stay vigilant, St. George is a lovely place to get away for a break from this difficult time. :)

The unit has been recently remodeled and is very nice - 10ft ceilings, new fixtures, etc. It is perfect for 2 couple or a small family. In the center of all businesses so you can walk to everything.

We loved the apt, it was nice and fully stocked. The problem was the front door, it had to be pushed in and lined up with the lock before entering the code and it took several times before locking and unlocking. The wifi username and password were not the ones emailed to me but we figured it out, it was on the router.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and I would stay here again.

The property was very clean, updated, and had everything you could want or need! The best part was the location which was outstanding. The owner communicated easily and took care of any issue which we had. Would not hesitate to stay here again!

We enjoyed the island. There were a few things about the condo that were inconvenient, we couldn’t turn off the overhead light in bedroom and the ice maker didn’t work. The check in process was confusing. We had to get the help of the realtor downstairs to get in.

I was very excited about taking a trip to the beach with my son- the house looked exactly pictured however it was infested with German roaches. I reached out the the owner as soon as I noticed them and sent pictures. I was told I would be getting a 100% full refund however that is not the case I received a partial refund. Trying to communicate with the owner post stay has been near impossible. I had to forgo my trip that was planned months in advance because I refused to stay any longer.

This property was the perfect spot! Very clean, comfortable, well stocked and convenient to everything. Property is as described. Loved just sitting on the porch chatting and drinking wine. Property owner was very friendly and quick to respond with any questions we had. We will definitely stay here again! Already looking to book for a future trip with friends and renting both apartments #1 & #2. Thank you for sharing your property with us!

Nice spot for a quick visit to the island in the fall. Did not visit the beach but good location and easy access.

The apartment is very nice, has all you need and is very comfortable. As other reviewers have commented, don't count on WiFi - what's in place just doesn't seem to work. I have unlimited data, so was able to get by and the rest of the stay was great!!

A much needed break was spent here and we enjoyed the accommodations. I don’t recall needing for anything more than better weather but definitely convenient to the beach, and food and drink options.

Great Location
This cute little condo is in a great location. Beach access, Blue Parrot, BJs pizza, Mango Mikes & many others are within walking distance. Beds are very comfortable. Lush towels. Only 1 full bath to share (there’s a second powder room), but for our mother/daughter trip it was fine. Plenty of relaxing room. Veranda was breezy & nice. So glad we were able to rent for just a few nights rather than a full week since we could only get away for 4 days. Will definitely stay here again!

Very nice and clean. Updated abs had a lot of nice little extras available. Would recommend for size group of 4 or less and like to be in walking distance if everything. 5 stars all around.

This is the perfect condo in the perfect location. Right in the heart of SGI, everything was within walking distance. The property was immaculate and had new appliances. We especially loved the huge wraparound porch where we would have dinner on the picnic table. We will definitely be back.

Perfect Location
2 minute walk to 4-5 restaurants and 2 grocery stores. Ten minute drive to the most beautiful state park/beach we have ever been to. We went Easter week and there were no crowds AT ALL. Apartment exactly as described. Laundry around back. Easy parking. Will absolutely return.

Mislead from start to finish
After reading reviews about the property I contacted the host to inquire about the availability of Internet and was told that everything is good. Upon arrival we discovered TVs with no cable connection at all and no Wi-Fi at all. The host indicated that the Wi-Fi would be provided by the real estate office beneath us, however there was not enough throughput to effectively use the connection
We were promised a connected system of Wi-Fi and TV on our for the final day of our stay but this did not materialize. The host promised us a full refund which obviously would’ve been very acceptable considering the fact that we needed high speed Internet to conduct our business.
We received a two day refund which is better than nothing. I just wish the host had been upfront with us about the issues that were going on with his property prior to our arrival so that we could’ve made alternative arrangements.
I appreciate the refund, however, the problems we encountered created a lot of stress and made for a miserable visit to the island. RENTERS BEWARE!

Upon arrival the apartment looked lovely. It was centrally located on the Island. After eating out for dinner we tried to turn the Living room TV on…we received a message that there was not internet to continue. The TV in one bedroom was not hooked up, there was not a co-axel cable. Both TV’s were brand new. The 2nd bedroom did not have a TV. There was NOT WIFI. The only lamp in the living room did not have a working lightbulb so we had to use overhead lights. The kitchen did not have a dishcloth or dish towels. If I had known I would have brought some.
I did email the Manager and after 12 hours I called him and left a voicemail. When I did not receive a call back I called VRBO for help with these problems. The Manager did respond but was not able to to fix the problems.
The overall frustration was the apartment to the East of us had a working TV and they were using a computer. And the Realty Agency on the 1st floor had WIFI. We were given the Username and Passcode but we could not access. I don’t think it was due to lightning strike or telephone Pole replacement. The SuperBowl was Sunday and we could not watch it!!!! Very Frustrating weekend due to the above problems.

No AC in unit. I had to call the AC guy that just repaired it to see if I could talk him into repairing it again. He had nobody that could pull it off and I passed that info on to the owner. He told me is was best if I just leave. Keep in mind that we drove 6 hours to stay here. The owner was at Disney so he didn’t have time to find anyone to make a service call to fix the air. According to the realtor that is below his unit, this is a common problem with him. I would not recommend at all.

Island Mentality
We have traveled to and stayed at many different places, but this VRBO on SGI is by far one of my favorites. If you're looking for a quiet stay in a low key, down to earth little town, SGI is the place to go. This property was spotless and offered all of the comforts of home. All of the restaurants on the island were within walking distance. We were very pleased with our stay. Also, be sure to get some Weber's little donuts. :)

Everything was great besides the ac stopped working and TVs did not work in either bedroom. And we kept getting locked out the door.
