Vacation Rentals by Owner

2 months in heaven!

St. Simons is a wonderful place to get away from the winter cold and gray, and this property has everything we needed to feel right at home. It has a thoroughly stocked kitchen, wireless internet, and more television stations than one could ever watch. It is very private, but the neighbors are all very friendly. Probably the most important thing to us was having a comfortable bed...one takes a chance renting for 2 months, that it might be awful trying to sleep. This one was great! Thanks, Danele, for being so accommodating, as well!

Owner response:I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay at my place in St. Simons. I've recently learned about the Friday late afternoon get-togethers in the complex. I'm sure that it's nice to know you'll have some good friends waiting for you when you come back next year.

My Stay at St. Simons

I just wanted to send you a little note telling you what a wonderful time my family and I had at your lovely home in St. Simons. We all agreed that if you would have us back, we want to spend every August in St. Simons. The facilities were great!!! The people were nice, and my grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed themselves at the beach, the pool and the playground area. I hope we left the house as we found it---clean. I look forward to scheduling my next trip with you soon. Take good care until we speak again.

A nice little getaway

Date of Stay: 06/30/11 Review Submitted: 07/06/11

Three females (humans) and two pups stayed in this cute little condo a few days prior to the 4th. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, once we found the beach that is. It's an island so the water surrounded us; but it took us some time to find the sandy beach, believe it or not! We used our vehicle to get around. However, I felt we could have walked but the other two ladies opted for the vehicle. All in all, we had a very nice stay.

Owner response:Thank you for the nice review, Cynthia. I'm so glad you and your girlfriends had a nice time and that you liked the condo. There is a lot to do on St. Simons, as I'm sure you found out. The beach is not very far from the condo. Just go toward the pier (about 3 blocks), turn left on Beach Drive, and continue to Massengale Park. It has the best swimming beach on the island with plenty of parking, changing rooms, and picnic tables.

Danele- Thank you for providing such a wonderful place for our family to spend our vacation time together. The condo was perfect-clean, cute & the master bed was heaven! Our youngest daughter loved being so close to the playground & had so much fun swimming & feeding the ducks. It was our first time to St. Simon's Island & we all agreed that it is a beautiful place & very family friendly! We loved the village area & Neptune Park-so many fun things to do. Thank you for being so helpful You were a pleasure to rent from. We definitely want to come back & hopefully stay longer next time!

Owner response:Thank you so much for your kind comments, Lori and Russell. St. Simons is a great place for a family vacation. It's one of those places that make a good tradition for your children to enjoy now and remember years later. I hope you'll be back soon.

Perfect Condo

My husband and I visited St Simon's Island for the first time and stayed in this condo. It was immaculate and spacious. We loved the location - closeby to pier, restaurants, and sites. We traveled with our little yorkie mix and the condo was perfect for her being on the ground floor with a gated patio. Thank you so much! We will be back.

Owner response:I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay in my condo and also your stay on our beautiful island. I'm always making improvements to the condo as it is my favorite place to vacation. This summer I will have updated every aspect of it, some things having been done more than once. I've found that I enjoy St. Simons more with each visit. I hope you'll come back again so that you can too.

Better than described

Date of Stay: 04/01/11 Review Submitted: 04/11/11

We are so happy that we chose this condo. It was clean and well equipped. We even used the bikes. I made lots of use of the patio. There was no need to leave the grounds except to go the beach. The heated pool was comfortable and not crowded. we watched the mama duck call her ducklings into the water. A shame that I did not have a recorder with me. We will definately be back for a longer stay.

Owner response:Thank you for your kind comments. Any time on St. Simons is wonderful, but the spring, when you were there, is especially nice. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Come back soon.

Our Stay on the Island Allowed us to Spend Family Time

Our family enjoyed our stay at your condo last week. The island was very nice and quiet---just what we were looking for this time around. Allowed us to spend family time. We left everything as we found it and placed the sheets and towels near the washer. You were a pleasure to deal with. Thank you!

Owner response:Thank you for your comments, Carmen. We are always improving our place. Each year we plan at least one major improvement. I hope you'll be back soon. The Island is such a special place. It's like a step back in time to when people and life were much simpler and kinder.

YOUR CONDO WAS THE PERFECT PLACE TO SPEND QUALITY TIME WITH OUR LOVED ONES

Date of Stay: 05/06/10 Review Submitted: 06/07/10

We want to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at your condo in St. Simons. It is just lovely. We explored the city a bit, went out to eat, but mostly spent quality time with our loved ones at your condo. And it was the perfect place to do just that. The bed in the master was sooo comfortable. We have stayed in several condos and houses in our previous stays there on the island, and have decided this is the one we will be returning to. Thanks again. Kay

Owner response:Thank you, Kay. I'm so glad you enjoyed your time in my place on the island. Please come back---and soon. We are always making improvements to the condo and welcome any comments you may have for making it more comfortable. I hope you'll be back next time you need some R&R.

We Got That "Home Away From Home Feeling"

Guest: Lynn and Janice (Decatur, Georgia)
Date of Stay: 04/04/10 Review Submitted: 04/09/10

Danele, you were a delight from the beginning of our reservation. Your place was beautiful. We loved Ocean Walk. As much as we love the ocean and the shops, we felt that Ocean Walk provided that home away from home feeling. The large oak trees with drooping Spanish moss, the large pond with a fountain where Mama Ducks had baby ducklings, the club house that overlooked the pond with rocking chairs on the porch - it was all your pictures displayed and more. The pools were great and the location of your condo was so peaceful. Thanks - we hope to visit again!!

Owner response:Thanks Lynn. I appreciate your comments. It's nice to find others that enjoy the island as much as we do ourselves. I hope you will be back again soon. It was a pleasure to have you stay at my island home.

We really enjoyed our stay at the condo. It was very nice and close to all the shops and pier at St Simon. Everyone was friendly there. And we would love to take the kids again soon. I recommend this property for family or couples.

Date of Stay: 08/02/08 Review Submitted: 09/02/09

Family, warm weather, DOLPHINS, clean beaches, two swimming pool, available staff help, ample parking secure outdoor lighting. This condo is well decorated, comfortable and relaxing. Quite private. QUALITY. Very well supplied and stock. The well equipped kitchen will not disapoint any cook. We lacked for nothing during our stay. The beaches had easy access and parking, clean public restrooms, lifeguards, and outdoor showers to clean off the sand. At low tide a wonderful sandbar suddenly appears. We walked the length of it daily.But the prize of the trip goes to the DOLPHINS. Also at low tide pods of dolphins swam into sight. Numbers of dolphins swam up and down the coastline. What a sight. Everyone on the beach took notice. Amazing. We also enjoyed the use of both swimming pools. It was the first week of Ausust but neither pool was ever crowded. No matter what time of the day we swam. We had privacy and a good time. Our children are older, 19 and 21 years olds, and they found their way around the island with no problem. We all enjoyed the sightseeing, but mainly stayed on the beach with the warm water, lots of sun and the Dolphins. What a vacation!
