Perfect for our yearly family trip!

This is our second year vacating on St George Island and the second time we’ve rented a house in the plantation. We’ve also rented many other beach houses on the gulf and on the Atlantic. Family Tides was one of the best houses we’ve ever rented. This house was very spacious and well equipped. Location was convenient, a quick ( 1 mile) from the gate house and while not beachfront, it was a quick and relatively easy walk to the beach. Access to the house was via key code and worked very well. The house has an elevator that goes to all levels which made day of arrival and departure much easier!The property manager was very responsive when things came up. What really made the difference with this house was how comfortable and well equipped this house was. Comfort - there were multiple sitting areas and family areas that were all comfortable places to hang out. There were plenty of games and puzzles to engage the whole family during evenings or a rainy day. Well equipped - this was the game changer. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. We brought many items with us that we’ve needed on previous vacations and a lot of it came back with us as this house already had it. The laundry room was stocked with plenty of clean beach/pool towels for guest use. This was a great rental experience from booking to departure. We will definitely look to book Family Tides again.
