Reviewer Comments:
The condo was very nice, clean and well appointed. I had questions about entry on a Sunday and the young lady I spoke with went above and beyond to ensure I was taken care of.
It was great, A draw back is that it was on the second floor. First step is higher than the others & would be helped by a yellow strip. Everything else was great.
I received an email with the gate code and door code. No check-in. The kitchen was equipped with everything I needed. Glad I didn’t have to take my own Keurig.

Reviewer Comments:
Staying at resort condominiums was a wonderful and relaxing experience. We really enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and privacy especially since it was our 29th anniversary celebration.The only small suggestion I have is the Parking Lot. It had several pot holes that needed to be repaired and it needs a smoother surface.

The property was super clean, super quiet, and a dream. We have stayed in St. Simons in hotels, this was our first time with VRBO. It was so easy, and the property was perfectly located to the beaches and as a family we were able to get away. Thank You!

Awesome stay! We loved the location. Close to everything we needed. The condo was the perfect size for me and my husband. The pictures did not do it justice. The home was well maintained and equipped with everything you needed. We were able to cook meals. My husband utilized the gym while we were there. Shops, grocery store and restaurants are in walking distance. We loved the gated community. Bed was a little firmer than what we were used to but nothing to complain about.

We loved the apartment, although we had technical issues. The door code was confusing, but someone was there within 10 minutes to show us how it worked. Someone was available to answer every question immediately. It was too hot to do anything outdoors, so we never got to the pool, but it looked lovely. The condo was clean, and the kitchen was well equipped.
