Make yourself at home at this quaint beachfront bungalow in St. George Plantation with 'Old Florida' charm! A Gift From The Sea offers fabulous views of the Gulf of Mexico, a private pool, and direct beach access via the adjacent boardwalk, plus exclusive community amenities, including tennis courts, a fitness center, bicycle paths, and nature trails.

The only two-bedroom vacation rental on the beach, this cozy retreat is nestled among the beautiful dunes of the Gulf of Mexico and is perfect for a family or two couples. Watch the sun and moon rise over the sea. Swim in the pristine waters and search for shells on the amazing white sandy beach - just steps from your door. Explore the Island on a bicycle or paddleboard, or relax on the deck while watching the dolphins play in the surf.

The exterior offers under-house concrete parking, a private swimming pool (heated for a fee), a community boardwalk, an enclosed hot/cold outdoor shower, a fish cleaning area, and a double park-style grill. Exterior stairs lead to the wraparound decks and open living/dining/kitchen area, where sliding glass doors offer unobstructed views of the gorgeous Gulf waters.

High ceilings and warm wood paneling in the living areas make this bungalow feel spacious and inviting. The living area offers comfortable seating, flatscreen TV, and a queen sofa bed. The wraparound decks overlook the beach and swimming pool and provide plenty of space to unwind, soak up the sun, and enjoy the Gulf breezes. There is also a laundry room with a washer/dryer. Beach gear credit is included with this home - book a stay and get your choice of kayaks, paddleboards, beach chairs, and more!

Great location/view
Great location in the gated community of the plantation. Just feet from the beach so easy to go back and forth. Loved seeing dolphins and sea birds. Very quiet. House was casual, easy and had what we needed. Included in the price was another company that dropped off beach chairs, umbrellas, bike etc. There are pickle and tennis courts, Walking paths and swimming pools. Despite what another review said, we saw no snakes or rats!! The double/queen beds were comfortable. The king bed was fine but a little spongy. The pool was a little bigger than we expected!

Great little gift
We had a great week at A Gift from the Sea, it was just the right size, had a nice private pool, and of course the beautiful beach. We enjoyed the location, being in the plantation, and the lovely deck views. The only downsides were the mattress in the master is in desperate need of replacement, it left my husband and I both sore. Additionally the oven was throwing error codes when we tried to use it, which was a bit of a bummer as we often enjoy a night or two in eating leftovers or making a dinner. Overall great house and experience!
