Salt Life Beach Cottage Upper and Below Deck
We loved staying here! Perfect location; walkable to both beach and restaurants. House also had everything you could want and the neighborhood is quiet! Definitely recommend.

ONE BLOCK FROM BEACH, 150 YARDS TO 4 RESTAURANTS!!
A return trip, and we will be back again! Terrific accommodations, excellent communication, Great place to stay and enjoy all St Simon's had to offer. Excellent value for the amazing location.

Chimney Swift
What a lovely place ! I was in town to do some birding around the area. I found the location to be close enough to everything that I needed. You aren't right in town - but everything is within a few minutes drive and barely any traffic. The main bed is incredibly comfortable. The setting is beautiful and quiet. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking. As for coffee (from a person who needs it desperately in the morning!) , there is a drip maker and a packet of coffee grounds as well as sugar is provided. You'll need to get creamer and whatever other sweetener you might like. The television provided regular cable (change the input) or use whatever streaming service you have on your own. There are enough bedrooms and space for a family or large group to be more than comfortable here. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

The 1880's House, Part Two!
Darien has always felt like a home away from home! This is the first time we’ve stayed at John’s place, but we fell in love with his little home. We hope to be back in the future!

Yorktown
He is a very nice guy nice house peaceful neighborhood

Adorable Cottage, Close to the Beach
We've stayed in vacation rentals in St. Simons a number of times. This one was by far the best we've found. It was clean, spacious, welcoming, and comfortable. Next time we go we'll look to book here first.

The East Inn - Hip Hideout Blocks from Beach
What a wonderful host, great house and beautiful vacation destination. Abbey was the best! There if needed, communicated well and provided some unexpected perks upon arrival with a personalized note. couldn't have been happier with our stay. we were 4 siblings and spouses, all retired who get together each year somewhere and this time picked St Simons Island, GA. Home was walking distance to lighthouse, dining and much more. Great secluded, safe, accessible, private location. Plenty of room and amazing kitchen. Thanks Abbey. We'll all have find memories of our stay and your gracious hosting.

St Simon's Island uncrowded East Beach: 4 BR 2.5 B
Our family had an amazing stay at Jennifer's home! There were 8 of us plus two small dogs, and we never felt crowded at all. The living room felt so open and roomy and had an expansive marsh view. The decor was very tasteful and not overcrowded, which I really appreciated. It felt like someone's actual home and not just a vacation rental staged to remind you that you're at the beach. The teens/ young adults enjoyed having their own space downstairs with a kitchenette to keep snacks and drinks. We thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor spaces - firepit on the marsh side and hammock tucked away in another part of the yard . The walk to the beach was very easy - a quick walk down to the end of the quiet street and then a trail through a wooded area down to East Beach which was gorgeous and uncrowded. This was maybe a 5 minute walk. We all really enjoyed the trail! My kids thought it seemed like a secret path through the forest. Overall, I would highly recommend Jennifer's home on SSI!
Sea Island condo rentals

Oceanfront Condo w/view! | Free Bikes! | Updated!
We enjoyed our stay and will be back to visit again! Close to restaurants and plenty of things to do in the area. Very nice place to stay.

Salt and Light - Island Condo with Community Pool
We really enjoyed our stay! This is our second time to St. Simon and it gets better every time. The place was very clean, organized and comfortable. We had everything we needed and more. We had a slight issue with the elevator when we first arrived and the realty company acted swiftly to come out to solve the problem and followed up with us before the end of our stay. Keep in mind the garage entry has a low entrance so some vehicles will not fit, however there is plenty of parking out front. We will definitely recommend to our friends & family and hope to be back again soon!

Amazing Ground-floor Harbour Oaks 3 bed/ 2bath
Great place to stay! Exactly as described. We loved how private the location was while still being within walking distance of everywhere we wanted to go.

St Simons Townhouse Close to Beach and Village
Great location, quiet neighbors and easy access to local hot spots

Ocean Walk Super Host Family and Pet Friendly
We had a great time at a beautiful place for our very first rental! Lots to do just within the little community for different age ranges. Short distance to multiple things to do. Great host and would stay again!

Condo of Curiosity - Unique, cozy, fun and clean!
Not your typical “beach house” but that’s what I loved about this hidden gem! We absolutely loved staying here. Everything was great & the apartment was like a museum all on its own! Everywhere you look was something new & fun! I think my favorite is the mini brands hidden in the cabinets!! Communication was great! My pup even enjoyed the sweet neighbors! Definitely would love staying here again!

Large Open 2 Bed 2 bath Condo Overlooks Pool
When the snow and ice storm took out power on most of St. Simons Island - this place was not impacted. The place was clean, comfortable, and convenient ... and the workout room was great (and uncrowded).

Marsh View Condo - Sea Palms Golf Course
5 Stars+!! I say run to book this haven! The condo was literally the most peaceful place I have been in decades. It merges upscale interior design with comfort. The wall size plate glass window in the living room overlooks the marsh. I would spend hours in the wing back chair observing the waterfowl. The master bedroom has windows to watch the sunrise! Carol is a super host providing excellent detailed information. She was very responsive. I enjoyed my stay so much I extended another week.
Sea Island beach vacation rentals

Beach Please!Top Floor|Balcony Ocean View|Pool
We loved staying here! The property is beautiful, and access to the pool/hot tub and the beach was so nice for our family of 5. Parents traveling with a baby in a pack and play, it will fit perfectly in the master closet - fyi 🥰. Loved walking to Barrier Island Brewery and Fiddlers. Our kids took their scooters and both were super kid friendly. We got ice cream almost every night at The Cottage, which has a castle playground. Thank you for everything! Can’t wait to come back to Saint Simons .

Beautiful place in SSI! Near Pier & Beach
We had a great time at Margarita's place. Right from check-in to checkout, everything was easy. We loved the seaside vibe inside the place. Kitchen and other supplies were reasonably sufficient. The location is also great, being easily accessible to the beach, pier, and restaurants. We will highly recommend it.

705 Beach House Prime location
The residence was extremely close to the beach, with the access point just across the street. And it was well within walking distance to the Pier Village and other points of interest on the island. The beach area was not too crowded. The residence was perfect for our group who was in town for a wedding. The only complaint I heard was the bathrooms were a little small. But the bedrooms and the amenities made our stay comfortable and relaxing.

Newly Renovated Beach Home
Place was close to everything, was provided with all the basic necessities plus some! Easy booking, communicative and accommodative! Thank you for an easy stay!

Elegant St. Simons Island Honeymoon Beach Cottage
Melanie was the perfect host with excellent pre-stay and stay communications. The location is amazing and the cottage is super cute. We can't wait to return in the future! What a wonderful experience all around!

Ocean Walk T-1 Pet friendly!
We were only here a short time as we were heading back form a road trip, but Joshua's place was perfect for a stay. Everything was very clean, and he has whatever you need to make breakfast and all that. He had extra sheets, blankets, towels, whatever you need. Bed was super comfortable, and you are within a 5-minute drive to the action/ beach. We didn't get a chance to use the amenities, but if we were there longer, all looked very nice. I would definitely recommend this spot!

Modern and Stylish Vacation Condo on East Beach
Lindsay's place was just as described. Perfect little community tucked into SSimons beachside. Within walking distance to shops and restaurants. The pool are and beach path were private and well kept. The condo was crisp and clean. Cute balcony. Beach chairs and accessories readily available. Very much enjoyed the stay and would love to come again in warmer weather

Seaside Serenity
Our group had a fantastic experience staying at Derek‘s home. Highly recommend! It’s within walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants, there is a golf cart on site that you can rent daily, fantastic pool, plenty of space for a large group of friends/family. Stay here, you won’t be disappointed!
Your guide to Sea Island
All About Sea Island
Located in southeastern Georgia, Sea Island is one of four barrier Islands in the Golden Isles — along with St. Simons Island, Little St. Simons Island, and Jekyll Island. With the Atlantic Ocean on one side, and the Marshes of Glynn on the other, Sea Island has natural beauty and a long history: the island was formed over 5,000 years ago when the last Ice Age struck. Enjoy the five-mile-long strip of beach that’s suitable for sunbathing, swimming, snorkeling, or even going on a hunt for a conch shell. Fun fact: These shells are known colloquially as the knobbed whelk, and are the state shell of Georgia.
Sea Island also has miles of trails that run throughout its live oak forests, estuaries, and tidal marshlands, and offers plenty of space for all types of recreation, including golfing, sailing, bowling, and fishing.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Sea Island
Spring is a great time to visit Sea Island, with warm temperatures rising before the heat truly strikes in the summer. Sunscreen, hats, and glasses are advisable to bring along if you’re booking a summer getaway, when the weather can spike with high temperatures.
In fall temperatures tend to cool off a bit and plenty of festivals come alive. The Glynn Visual Arts Fall Arts Festival hosts numerous artisans in tents filled with locally-crafted works. Winter temperatures remain relatively mild, and holiday cheer can be felt at the Mistletoe Market at St. Simons Island or the Brunswick Christmas Parade in December.
Top things to do in Sea Island
Fort Frederica National Monument
Indulge in a bit of history at the Fort Frederica National Monument on St. Simons Island. These are the remnants of a fort and town that were built during the island’s colonial past. You can check out old oaks and stone blocks surrounded by an array of willow trees that droop from above, or the out-of-use cannons that guarded the island against conflict in prior centuries. The grounds are open to visitors year-round and don’t cost a dime.
Island Waterways
Life revolves around water on Sea Island, whether you’re casting a line for blackfin tuna in Black Banks River or setting sail off the beach for a sunset cruise and dolphin-spotting. The island’s mineral-rich marshes make it a haven for birdlife, including ospreys, and you can explore on conventional kayaks or individual catamarans.
Tree Spirits on St. Simons Island
There are over 30 miles of bike paths on St. Simons Island. One popular cycling activity is to search for “Tree Spirits,” faces that appear in the knots of the majestic oak trees. These were carved by a local artist in the 1980s, and legend claims these carvings have immortalized the fallen sailors who have lost their way in the surrounding waters. Searching for these carvings along the bike trails is an island treasure hunt in itself.
