We had an awesome trip to SSI and loved this townhome. It had everything we needed, and the kitchen was amazingly stocked. The location is incredible, and we all felt very safe, comfortable, and relaxed throughout our entire trip! We would definitely go back! Travelled with 3 kids and two grandparents, and we all slept comfortably and enjoyed ourselves!

This is a lovely property that is very spacious and conveniently located. The property manager was very responsive to a minor maintenance issue and it was remedied within the day. The beach is great for young families with relatively calm waters. The pool was well cared for and not crowded whatsoever. Lovely stay. Highly recommended.

We were extremely impressed with the condition & amenities of the property! The owner was very prompt in assisting us in any way. We loved the proximity to the beach & enjoyed some of the suggested local eateries. If you get a chance, put a sunrise outing to Driftwood Beach on your itinerary, only 20 minutes away! We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for quiet beach time! Thanks to Justin & Ashley for letting us share your beautiful home!

Wonderful property with an easy walk to the beach

Our group of two adults and kids ranging from 17 to 21 had a wonderful stay at this east beach townhome. The unit was clean with plenty of linens and very comfortable beds for all. The decorating was updated and the layout was perfect for our crew. The teenagers loved the upstairs balcony! Easy access to overflow parking. The owners were easy to communicate with before and during our stay. Everyone agreed the townhome was a great find and the location was fabulous. Would definitely stay here again!

Excellent Stay on Beautiful St. Simons

The property was exactly as described. The location is so nice for quick access to the beach and a short drive to some great restaurants and shops. We had nothing but great meals and service everywhere! This place had everything we needed. Comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, and amenities for the beach. A few of the beach chairs were not usable (broken) but we brought some along so all was good. Quick responses from Justin were very helpful. The WiFi was a bit sporadic but we managed ;) I would highly recommend staying here!

Awesomeness 😎

Our family and I came down for Spring Break getaway and could not have ask for a more wonderful experience and beautiful, comfortable, extremely well decorated fun townhouse and place to stay. We were so happy with everything and especially the amount of towels and beach items provided by the owner for our stay. The listing is just as described and with 4 levels the elevator was an amazing asset to carry in groceries and luggage. Communication with owners was excellent. I can not say enough positive things about our experience and stay.

Returning from an amazing week on SSI. The condo was wonderful. Fully equipped with anything you can think of. Very clean and well decorated to makes you feel at home. Short walk to the pool and beach. Justin responded quick with any questions. SSI is a great place for a vacation. You can relax on the beach, visit historical sites, walk on the pier, paddle board and eat at some great restaurants. Planning on returning next year. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your condo.

There is a reason why this property has a 5 star rating!! Everything was wonderful! Everything is just as described! The kitchen was very well stocked and there was plenty of room to sit and eat together as a family. The beds were super comfortable! There were chairs, a wagon and cooler that we could use for the beach - even beach towels! The owners really do think of everything! The pool and beach were great - and we never felt crowded. We hardly had to drive for 5 minutes to enjoy awesome food and service. Also, Ashley was great at communicating and answering all of my questions beforehand. I highly recommend this condo!

So great! They thought of everything!

Fantastic. This house really has it all- especially love the deck on the fourth floor. Proximity to the beach, the pool which was never crowded- that’s important to us during covid. The beach had lots of social distancing. The owners were really responsive! Neighbors were nice too. Only small thing was there was some construction next door- it’s over now but it was a little annoying to hear the hammering during the day. That’s literally the only drawback- everything else was perfect!

Perfect perfect perfect

From our first interaction with Justin, I knew we had found a place that would feel like home. And it did! Sweetwater was spacious, clean, well equipped and perfect for our family. The beach is steps away, the on-site pool was quiet and private, the neighborhood was close to everything. We biked, walked, and tooled around the darling island in a golf cart. Justin recommended fun things to do and great restaurants. He communicated with us daily to see how our stay was going. The beds are amazingly comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and more including spices, coffee filters and sweeteners. They had laundry detergent, soap, Kleenex. I’ve never had a VRBO so well stocked. If you are thinking about Sweetwater, stop thinking and just book.

Great Service & Attention to Detail!

This property is amazing! Everything was super clean. Property has been updated & is very modern. Very nicely decorated with beautiful furnishings. Justin & Ashley have spared no detail! They have gone above and beyond from the electronic keypad on the entry door and nest smart system, tvs, chargers and speakers in every room, a fully appointed and labeled kitchen with everything you could need including a keurig. The beds are super comfortable with fresh white linens, nice pillows, & the baths have plush towels and bath mats. Very nice furnishings. Plenty of drawers and closet space. With 4 bedrooms there is plenty of room for a large family. The neighborhood has direct beach access, a very nice community pool, and it is super quiet. The condo is just a few minutes from the best restaurants as well as to the Village. There is a PS4, DVD players, fun games and books for rainy days and evenings. Justin & Ashley were a delight to rent from...they were quick to respond, super courteous & attentive. They answered every question and made sure we had everything we needed. We rented the condo for a cold & rainy President’s Day weekend so we really enjoyed having a comfortable & cozy condo to hang out in. We will definitely stay here again! I give this condo and owners a 5 star rating!

Look no further ! This place is immaculate and comfortable .Beautifully decorated -walk to beach

Seven adults and one toddler stayed at this awesome townhouse for 5 nights. It's exactly as described and a great location. Steps to the pool and the beach. The beach here is great ..... wide , flat sand to walk or bike on . Tidal pools form at low tide which make it absolutely perfect for kids. They had umbrellas and chairs that we could use as well. The bedrooms were very comfortable and nicely decorated as was the rest of the home. The kitchen had everything you need to cook at home or if you decide to go out there are great restaurants within walking distance. And the best part was Justin, the owner! I've rented 18 homes in the past 3 years and he is by far the most responsive and helpful vacation rental owner that I have encountered. Prompt ! and goes the extra mile. Not only did he answers numerous email questions but I made reservations for a trolley tour and never received confirmation from them., nor could i get a response. Justin contacted them and handled it for us ! The outside look of this place is a bit deceiving ... a bit plain but dont let that deter you ... I almost passed it up and so glad I did not .The location and area is beautiful. Perfect home!!!!!

This property is well maintained and full of amenities. The owner has a fully stocked kitchen and also made accessible to us beach items such as good chairs, cart and cooler. This was wonderful since we flew into st simons which saved us having to buy these items. The bedrooms had good quality linens and had plenty of above average towels. Very nicely decorated and did not have a “tired” feel. Great quality comfortable furniture. Plenty of TV’s, games, books and a video game system. Owner answered promptly questions we had. Easy access to property. Safe and in a good location. Beach access is very good. We enjoyed our stay.
