Breathe Easy's private pool with water-fall and extensive sunning area (pool heated during cooler months for $350 for week) with multiple chaise lounges is surrounded by dozens of palms and other tropical vegetation, creating a unique, exotic hotel-like atmosphere. A large dining table complements the large event-sized grill (gas provided), plus another park-style charcoal grill, also in the pool area.

About Ben and Sharon, Property Owners
We cherish our vacations, too, and understand the importance of having a clean, comfortable, well-equipped home to make your holiday special.
Ben and Sharon, Property Owners purchased this house in 2009
Why Ben and Sharon, Property Owners chose St. George Island
We love St. George Island and hope you will, too. First visited in May 2008, fell in love with the Island and purchased Breathe Easy in July 2009. In fact, we love the Island so much we are now full-time SGI residents ourselves and available during your stay, if needed. If you are looking for a low-key, family-friendly piece of paradise, St. George Island is it.
What makes this house unique
Sitting on the balcony, watching the dolphins, while enjoying the sea breeze is one of our great joys in life. Add some friends and family to the mix and life can't be better.

Reviews
Wonderful!
4.9/5 -
(61 traveler reviews)
Very clean!
This house is right on the water! It has plenty of seating areas throughout the house. Loved the side porch and back porch for reading. Great pool with a large grill and cabana!
Lovely and easily accommodates extended family.
It suited us perfectly. The setting can't be beat, right on the beach with multiple porches. We easily cooked big family meals in the spacious and well appointed kitchen and enjoyed the beach and many bike rides.
Breathe Easy was a Breath of Fresh Air
We truly enjoyed staying at Breathe Easy. The owners were very responsive when we were in the selection process and provided great information for us before and when we arrived. The house is well-maintained - even the pool! The entire space is very clean and the downstairs is great for at least a family of 4. We slept upstairs while a friends of ours who have young kids slept downstairs. It was perfect. The house is steps from the beach which is wonderful. The beach is very quiet and the night sky is unbelievable; being on the island, there's very little ambient light.
St. George and Apalachacola are very quiet. It's the perfect place to slow down and simply enjoy spending time on the beach, walking, playing games, etc. There are a few decent restaurants where we ate on St. George and in Apalachocola.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 10 days at Breathe Easy.
Fantastic family getaway...
Beautiful home with ample room for all! And the kitchen...wow! We spent the Thanksgiving holiday in this lovely home and enjoyed preparing our feast in the gourmet kitchen. The location on the island is perfect for walking or biking to town for groceries or shopping. The beach views go on for miles...sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking!
Thank you Ben & Sharon for sharing your home.
This house is truly a hidden gem. Best kitchen and living area we have ever had!
Just left from our fall break in SGI. We have been coming to the island to stay since 1996 and we have never stayed in the same home twice. This house was truly amazing--by far the best open kitchen, living, and dining area we have ever had. We could not have asked for more from the kitchen. Everything has been updated and the decor is perfect. Some of the best I have seen! The extras and supplies in this home, the well-stocked kitchen, many beach towels, and everything you could possibly need, far exceeded what we have found in most homes where we have stayed.
Second only to the inside living and dining area is the outdoor living and dining area by the pool. The kids loved the private pool and we loved the large gas grill--a rare find on the island. This home is perfect for more than one family staying together. It even has a separate living area with a kitchenette on the bottom level. And the beach access is simple and very close--you could shout back to the house from the beach if you forgot something. Also, the home is very close to town and restaurants and great if you want to rent a golf cart and forego your car. I really didn't think the online description did this house complete justice. We were very pleasantly surprised and impressed.
If you like spending time at the beach and at home, and cooking as a family fresh seafood from the island vendors, this is the home for you. The owners are very prompt in responding
Truly A Home Away From Home
Breathe Easy is a great home for a large family/multiple families who like plenty of space to spread out yet extremely open on the second level floor plan to be "together". What a delight to sit by the window or out in the external living area while relaxing, cooking or eating and watch the dolphins swim past. The house was well-maintained with cozy beds and beautiful décor around every corner. The pool/grill area was wonderful as well. We enjoyed the amenities left for us by the owners - truly people who care about your stay and want you to come back. We will definitely be returning to this oceanfront haven! - The King/Wilkens family
Map
State park located at east end of Island provides pristine natural habitat for shelling and enjoying nature. Marine nature-center also provides an insight into the aquatic life pertinent to the area.
The quaint city of Apalachicola provides local shops and restaurants, with a true flavor of Old Florida.
