I wish we had more time. My mother has been in the hospital since 11/14 with a broken femur. My
adult sons and I had planned this trip as a surprise for her. However, we needed this time for respite and to work on plans for next steps in her care.
221 Olive is one of my favorite rentals as it is very comfortable and well appointed. I like this quiet street and the location on East Beach. The unit does have several light bulbs that need to be replaced. One in a lamp in the master bedroom, one in the stairwell, and a couple in one overhead light fixture.

The garage apartment was spacious, clean and comfortable. The screened in porch was a perfect place for a cup of coffee or glass of wine. There is a very short walk to the beach. Less than a mile to groceries and great restaurants. Perfect location for us and our dog. Highly recommend.

Reviewer Comments:
First impressions are important, and when we arrived the place was incredibly clean. Some reviews mention that it needs updates, but for us, as long as everything is in good working order that is all we need. I felt like the price of the rental was fair, thinking that updates would jack the rental price up a bit. The place is laid out similarly to a condo, but with the benefit of no neighbors. The location is really convenient, considering the walk to the beach is only about a block and the walk (or bicycle ride) to restaurants and shops is pleasant, too. The only downside I noticed was that parking is very limited, but other than that our experience with this rental was exactly what we were looking for.

Even though we had pretty rainy weather during our stay, this rental did not disappoint. I have been going to SSI for many years, but this is absolutely the best location I've stayed in. Clean, close to everything...five stars!

Overall this is a comfortable beach house for a party of 4 or less. It's small, but met our needs for a 4 day stay. The kitchen is fairy well stocked, it had what we needed and the appliances are older but worked fine (we used everything but the coffee maker). The DVD player does not work - it makes all DVDs skip - we told the agency so hopefully that will get replaced. The streaming service was nice other way to get movies. The walls inside the whole house desperately need to be cleaned and painted. The bed was comfy enough. No cleaning supplies were provided except two tablets for the dishwasher, so we had to go out to buy our own soap, sponges, counter spray, paper towels, etc. That's fine, I just am used to other rental companies providing that stuff or leaving it in the house for all the renters to use. There was plenty of toilet paper provided. NOW - about that beach access. It's HORRID. You walk a half a block to the entrance. But then you walk 3 "blocks" through a marsh/swamp where there is ankle high standing water and killer mosquitoes. Then you are on the beach. Our second day we chose to drive up to the super crowded East Beach entrance to avoid that nightmare.Would I stay here again? Not if my mission were to come to the beach - because of that (lack of) access. If I just needed a place on the island, yes.

We loved the location and the layout of our rental. The porch with the French doors was especially nice. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the cleanliness, especially the bathrooms. The living area furniture has stains that should be cleaned. The master bedding is worn out and doesn’t stay on the bed. With a few upgrades and a deep clean this would be a very excellent rental.

This was our second stay at Olive Way! The street is quiet and it’s easily accessible to the beach. There’s plenty of room for the two of us and the screened porch is nice especially when you want to open doors for fresh air! The house was clean and the bed was soft and comfortable. The decor is nice but the furniture in the living area could use some love. The casters on the very nice leather chair and ottoman are loose and come off occasionally and the couch needs to be replaced. Despite the furniture issues we love the place and will be back next year!!

We love SSI and decided to spend a month here to escape winter. We have 2 Labradors and this house allowed for our dogs to stay too. The house is a 2-minute walk to the best beach, off-leash for dogs, huge area for lots of running and playing. Everyone is so friendly, dog-lovers too. The house itself offers a very confortable stay. We cooked most nights, grilling a few; the kitchen was well-appointed. The beds are comfortable, living spaces were ample for two adults, a 3rd for a couple weeks, and the dogs. We enjoyed exploring all the villages of SSI! So many great restaraunts, great shopping, wonderful history in the region. It was exactly what we were looking for. The property management team could not have been nicer, more attentive to our needs. The wifi allowed us to work remotely, stream all our faves using the Fire stick we brought. We’re going back next year again. Very good value too.

Check-in was easy and staff nice. Rental was in a great location and close to beach. Was very disappointed in the rental: it needs a deep cleaning, furniture and carpet was stained, pet stains on carpet, kitchen poorly equipped, Keurig coffee maker leaked and was not able to turn off air conditioning and we froze. No extra blankets. Owners need to put some money into this apartment to update and clean. I would stay there again, if cleaned and updated, otherwise not worth the money.

We enjoyed it very much. Spent most of the time on the porch...within hearing distance when there were waves. The hottest part of the day was sheltered from the sun and there was a gentle breeze most of the time. The rooms were large and had everything we needed.

A very basic rental in a great, quiet location. It had everything we needed and no more. Could use a deep clean and an overall update, but nothing was a deal-breaker. Quick walk to the beach, quiet area, nice screened in porch!

This home was in a very convenient and Beautiful location, but the house itself needs some serious TLC and cleaning. We were very disappointed and quite uncomfortable. We tried to reach the owner, but the voicemail was full and the office did not return our call.. even after our atay. The check in key pick up process was very easy, we wish the home had been cleaner and better kept.

Our vacation “home” was perfect. The location was walking distance to the beach and the neighborhood was quiet. The kitchen was well equipped, if you really wanted to cook instead of going out to any of the wonderful restaurants nearby. The beds were comfortable and after a day at the beach, a welcoming spot. We would gladly stay at this place again and again.

This was a great little spot for the four of us and our two dogs. Only thing constructive I'd say of the property is that it needs a deep cleaning. That said, being longtime visitors of St Simons Island, this may have been our last trip. This has nothing to do with the property. It has to do with the condition of the beach near all of our favorite spots. There is a 25-50 yard strip of new growth that is usually swampy and teeming with ants and flying biting bugs. It makes the trek down to the beach miserable. It's just over a half mile walk from this property to clear beach sitting spots.

This unit is above a garage in a quiet neighborhood. It was clean and everything worked. It's location close to the beach and to the main streets was enjoyed. We enjoyed the screened in porch. Bring your own soaps and toiletries. It needs some minor repairs to the walls where door knobs, etc has been slammed against them. Check in was easy.
We would recommend doing the trolley tour first, it gives lots of information about the island and restaurant recommendations. If you are a crab cake lover, Barbara Jeans is your place. Wonderful scallops and shrimp were enjoyed at Barbara Jeans, Iguana's and Crab Trap. Many of the restaurants are owned by the same people. We did not get to enjoy Southern Soul, recommended by Alton Brown and others. Groceries were purchased at Harris Teeter, with a wonderful selection.
