Awesome house with everything we needed and then some!

Pictures don't do this home justice. It was absolutely beautiful and great location.

Property was adequate but definitely needs updating. Appliances were old and struggling. Patio furniture was lacking…2 tables with no tops, broken umbrellas. Needs overall painting. Lamps broken, burned out lightbulbs. Elevator worked but light didn’t so we couldn’t use it. No broom. Developed 2 significant leaks from rain in master and first floor bedroom. We spent an entire day dealing with wet towels and emptying bowls and pans from the leaks. Reported the leaks immediately and NO ONE ever called or came out to help us the entire week. I had to initiate every communication with Vacasa to no avail. After much complaining they agreed to refund one days rent which I still haven’t received. Our stay was the week of Sept 23 and this is Nov 9! We like Coast Cottages but will never rent thru Vacasa again! Renters Beware….

The overall house experience, with plenty of space, multiple outside decks, 360° rooftop view, huge pile of clean beach towels, closet full of beach chairs and toys in good working order, adjacent (included) swimming pool, private boardwalk to the beach, plenty of parking, just ADD family and friends!

The home is beautiful! It looked very clean. Every room has its own bathroom. The convenience of provided towels, washcloths, and linens was a plus. Two washers and dryers were also great. There were 4 laundry tabs provided for each washer, which was perfect for our 4 night stay. (I forgot my detergent). My husband and I had the third floor suite. It had its own little dorm size fridge and sink in the bedroom. The bathroom was immaculate. It had 2 vanities, (3 sinks)huge corner tiled shower, and big jacuzzi tub. The toilet is in a separate little room beside bathroom…perfect! The house has balconies with plenty of seating on every level. Plenty of beach towels were readily available on a shelf when you exit for a day at the beach. The kitchen is well equipped. The private access to pool (ONE OF THE POOLS IS CLOSED with what seems to be a pretty big repair) and beach was great. The beach didn’t seem crowded at all. There are a couple of issues that need to be addressed. The freezer drawer was a little tricky to open and the ice maker didn’t consistently make ice. We had to make sure the refrigerator door was completely pushed closed or it wouldn’t seal and close properly. The extra ice maker on the other counter didn’t work…not a deal breaker, just would’ve been nice to have that ice to fill cooler for beach. A tile in the upstairs suite bathroom is broken in front of the shower and is loose.(Just a little note to owners for safety purposes) Overall…beautiful home!

Positives Location - easy access to the beach and downtown. We enjoyed being able to walk directly to the beach and pool. Plenty of sidewalks for walking/biking. Two washer/dryer combos - we were able to easily keep up with laundry for 9 people throughout our stay. House was large. We had 9 people in the home and had plenty of room to spread out. Negatives - House is in desperate need of updating. The freezer attached to the refrigerator was stuck upon arrival. We had to to use major force to open the freezer, fearful we would break it. We had arrived on Saturday and it took until Tuesday until someone was able to come repair it. Furniture - the upholstered chairs used for dining are stained and filthy as were the white sofas. They could use a deep cleaning or replacing with something more durable. Deck furniture was filthy and there was a broken table. So much wear and tear on the walls, wood furniture, cabinets, etc. Just seems like the house hasn’t seen any TLC in quite sometime. However, St. Simons is a beautiful beach with plenty to do. We enjoyed the area very much.

The house was ok. Definitely needed improvements. Vents were filthy with dust. Back outdoor deck and roof deck were unusable. Master bed in upstairs bedrooms was awful - mattress was saggy and our friends slept horribly each night. Definitely not oceanfront. Front outdoor deck was nice. Kitchen was well stocked. But my biggest disappointment is the management service. My daughter left her orthodontic retainers by accident and I contacted Vacasa immediately. I had to pay $32 to send someone to look for the retainers. They found them after 4 days and said they would mail them to me. They continually promised that they would mail them to me and they never did. So now in addition to the 6k I paid for this house and the $32 I paid for someone to locate our missing items, I have to pay $500 for new retainers since no one on the Vacasa management team is capable of putting 2 retainer cases in the mail. What a joke. I will NEVER rent with Vacasa again.

Everything you could ask for ,clean, with plenty of room. And the location is perfect for the beach or to the village. Looking forward to another stay soon.
