About this apartment rental
Welcome home to High Tide! We have owned High Tide since late 2014 and it has been our pleasure to host guest from all over the country at this beautiful property.
The Penthouse at High Tide is a two story, 5 bedrooms, 4 and 1/2 bathroom Oceanfront condo that offers sweeping views of the ocean. It is the perfect location. This property is located on the beach and has a private lawn out front for relaxing, sunning, and grilling. If you tire of lounging on shaded porches or walking on the beach, it is a short ten-minute walk to the Village where you can enjoy a number of restaurants and stroll down the famous Saint Simons Pier - you may even spot a big catch being reeled in! A walk in the opposite direction will take you to the famous island restaurant duo Crab Daddy's & Crab Trap. HIGH TIDE has it all that St Simons has to offer.
The first floor of the Penthouse has two guest rooms, (both with king beds and private baths), a dining area, an open kitchen, an expansive family room overlooking the beach and the master bedroom and large en-suite with private balcony. The porch for the Penthouse is located off of the family room and spans the width of the unit. Outside you'll find plenty of seating for morning coffee, lunch or for a glass of lemonade in the afternoons. The views are spectacular and some of the absolute best you will find on the island!
On the second floor, there are two additional bedrooms and a full shared bath. One of the bedrooms is a king and the other has two twin beds. There's also an expansive bonus room area with plenty of seating and a large flat screen TV- perfect for watching a football game or for the kids to enjoy a movie. There's also a fridge and table and chairs upstairs.
**The Penthouse has exclusive access to the elevator. Guests may also choose to use the stairs to enter the property. The elevator does not service the second floor of the Penthouse**
All bedrooms are equipped with flat-screen televisions and the house is wi-fi enabled.
The High Tide complex is a 3 unit condominium with separate entrances and porches for each unit. While the Penthouse is a stand-alone unit, it can be combined with Units A & B to serve as the perfect location for reunions, corporate retreats, family vacations, and gatherings.
Parking: The Penthouse includes TWO parking spaces. Street and public parking and cannot be guaranteed.
Ryan Saunders, our property manager, takes excellent care of our guests and lives right around the corner. Like any good neighbor, he's only a phone call away should you need anything to make your stay more comfortable.

Fantastic views and accommodations- all family members (10) had a wonderful time and hope to return

Location of this unit is perfect! It is less than a half mile to the pier and just over a half mile to the King and Prince and Golden Isles Brewing Company area. The penthouse apartment has two full floors with incredible views, and a covered porch that is usable the entire day. The amenities offered at the unit were perfect.
Highly recommend this place!

This was a great location from getting to the town to walking on the beach. Highly recommended for families. Couple things - the online said it had a spa/hot tub and was just the tub in the master bedroom. I believe it has since been adjusted in the listing. There also was an issue with the AC and they came within the hour to fix it. The property manager was very responsive to the questions and needs that we had which was greatly appreciated.

Ryan was over the top friendly and so accommodating.
Never have I been blown away with the actual property as I was for the Penthouse. The photos do not give it justice.
We have already booked for next April and plan to return again and again. Thank you Ryan!

This is an exceptional property! The house is beautiful, and exactly as presented on-line. We loved the spaciousness, and particularly the balcony areas, complete with spectacular views. Ryan was wonderful! We travel to St. Simons often, yet this was our first stay at the Penthouse. It definitely will not be our last!

This is the perfect house for a guys/girls or couples trip! The layout and the ample amount of bathrooms make it for a very seamless stay. Nights or mornings out on the porch are wonderful overlooking the ocean with great gliders.

Our family of 10 adults from all over GA and Boston gathered together in memory of our brother. Words cannot express how incredible this ocean house is. The 180 degree ocean view is absolutely mesmerizing. You are so close to the ocean it feels like it’s literally inches away while sitting in the living room , cooking in the kitchen or enjoying coffee or afternoon drinks on the porch.
This is absolutely the cleanest property we have ever stayed in. The property manager Ryan is very attuned to your every need. The village is an easy walk or bike ride away. The kitchen has everything you will ever need. I started with the view and I’ll end it with THE VIEWS ARE STUNNING
The location is THE BEST EVER, an easy walk to the village and restaurants

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving/Birthday celebration. The Penthouse at High Tides was ideal. A comfortable elevator to assist our 96 yo mother/matriarch to easily access the condo and allow us to take her to the place she has visited for 70 years.
Everything we needed was thought of - from extra house supplies to a fully stocked Keurig.
Ryan was very helpful and professional. I was concerned about the small step onto the front balcony and he made a wonderful ramp on each side of the step to facilitate her being able to navigate easily and by herself if she wished.
It was a great week. Sun, some rain, lots of laughter and talk.
I would highly recommend and will returning again.

What a great unit - we can’t say enough about the facility and the house manager. 5 stars doesn’t begin to say what a great place this is. Thanks for everything!!

The penthouse is everything advertised. We loved it. Spacious. Well stocked with everything we needed. Perfect location. On the beach. A short walk to The Village. The deck is a perfect place for coffee at sunrise; reading, naps, or people watching during the day; cocktails at sunset. Property Manager Ryan is exceptional. A new favorite spot for us.

We could not have enjoyed our week at High Tide Penthouse any more. The unit was very spacious with a well appointed kitchen and lots of extras like laundry detergent, paper towels, beach towels, bath towels, etc. Ryan was great giving recommendations, advice and anything else we needed. I highly recommend High Tide Penthouse.

The pictures of this condo don’t do it justice! The views from inside and on the porch are just spectacular!!! There is so much space in this unit that it is perfect for large families. We had zero complaints and thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the island. It is super easy to communicate with Ryan and he was great about checking on us without us contacting him. I have never had a host so available and accommodating! We will be back next year!!

Great property and even better location. Had everything we needed for 4 couples. It would be great for families, too. Lots of space and very comfortable. Right on the beach, we saw dolphins from the deck. We stayed on the top floor and did not hear any noise from guests below. Good communication from the hosts and no issues. Wonderful time on St Simons, Island!

Excellent Choice
This is a great property and was perfect for our family of 9. Plenty of room for everyone to have alone time if desired as well as together time. Right on the beach and a 5 minute walk to the downtown area with great restaurants. Our kids and grand kids are ready to rent this property again.
The owner is a super guy and easy to work with.

Location cannot be beat!
I have been going to St. Simons for over 40 years and have stayed all over the island. This property is outstanding and the location cannot be beat. We had 2 families staying here (all kids are teenagers) and had more than enough room. We spent our days on the beach and walked everywhere! Ryan, the property manager, lives on the island and was so responsive. Any question we had was answered almost immediately! I would highly recommend this property and we will definitely be back!

Great view, love the balcony!!
With 2 two year old grands, we spent a lot of time on the balcony. The gliders on the balcony were a plus., high quality and very comfortable. Early morning coffee and watching the boats and barges go by was relaxing. The unit was very clean and enjoyable, with plenty of room for 7 adults and 2 toddlers.

Wedding Weekend
We had a wedding to attend that weekend but wanted to be near the beach. The location was perfect with the best views! The place was clean and roomy and very cheery. Located close to great eating and directly on the beach. We had to call Ryan for a quick fix for a couple of things and he was there within fifteen minutes. I would highly recommend the rental and Ryan!
