About this property

GOOD TIDES - Steps from East Beach AND has a large private pool!

Good Tides has it all! Just steps from the most attractive beach entrances on East Beach, this spacious (3100+ square feet) one-level home has a large pool and multiple indoor and outdoor areas for relaxing and entertaining. Recently renovated, Good Tides accommodates six in its three bedrooms plus 1-2 children on a small sleeper couch in the primary bedroom. A pair of twin-sized air mattresses provide additional sleeping space. There is plenty of room to spread out for ‘alone time’ or to come together for meals, playing games, or watching TV and movies. The delightful fan-cooled cabana provides a shady place to sit poolside.

East Beach is the most desirable neighborhood on Saint Simons Island. Bounded on one side by dunes and a beautiful sandy beach facing the Atlantic Ocean and on the other by scenic marsh where shore birds feed and nest, the community is just minutes by car, bike, or golf cart from the award-winning restaurants, shops and nightlife of The Village with its historic fishing pier and lighthouse and the new “Fun Zone” water park. The landmark King and Prince Hotel and its surrounding shops and restaurants are even nearer, just a short walk away. Renting a moped, golf cart or bike to get around is very easy.

We had an absolute blast staying here! St. Simons Island is such a special place, and this property made it even better. The location near East Beach was perfect, and the huge pool was a total win for the kids.The house itself is incredibly unique and worked perfectly for our group—family of four plus two grandparents soaking up quality time and some much-needed R&R. The artwork, amenities, and overall vibe were outstanding, and the value for the price felt hard to beat.We would absolutely recommend this spot to anyone heading to SSI. The only thing we couldn’t control was the local wildlife—if someone invents a magic solution for gnats and mosquitos, we’re all in!

Slice of heaven

This place was amazing. The location can’t be beat. We rented a golf cart to ride to dinner each night. It is super convenient to the beach too. The pool was a huge hit with our family. I especially loved the Asian art and decor. It didn’t feel cookie cutter at all! I wouldn’t hesitate to book this home again.

Only good things to say about our visit.
