We have been taking beach vacations for over 45 years and this is one of the best houses we have ever stayed in. The house was so clean, the welcome bag was a nice touch. Loved having the hot tub, even in the middle of the summer. The pool is perfect with part of it in the shade. We just love it! Already booked a week for next summer.

FRONT ROW CENTER IS AN AMAZING HOME, WITH EVERYTHING YOU NEED, GREAT LOCATION AND AWESOME AMMENITIES. GULF COAST VACATION PROP. OF SGI--TAKES EXCEPTIONAL CARE OF THEIR GUESTS AND OWNERS.
We’ve been to St. George Island many times, but this house has been our favorite! The check in process was very easy, and the property management group was very easy to reach and communicate with for questions. The house is stocked with almost every supply you’d need for a great day at the beach! An added bonus was the fabulous pool and hot tub for us to warm up during a slightly chilly week. We also loved the special touch of the welcome bag. We will definitely be rebooking for our next stay!

Front Row Center is a unique home with all the bells and whistles. Elevator was life changing for unpacking the car. Also, my elderly dog loved it! The doors are a bit noisy on it, but the ride smooth and quiet. All amenities worked like a charm, beds comfortable, and decor top notch. GCVP was wonderful to work with. Very attentive and accommodating. Highly recommend!!!! Be aware, one of the K bedrooms on main floor does not have a dresser, only end tables with drawers. Closets small, but adequate. Water filtration system, and on demand hot water was great!

Everything we needed for our family vacation of 3 kiddos, 1 teen, 10 adults, and our two fur babies. Loved the convenience of two refrigerators, ovens, dishwashers and of course, the elevator for luggage & groceries. The stocked kitchen was perfect for our nightly cooking dinners of fresh seafood. Thanks for an amazing week at Front Row Center!

The layout of this house was perfect for us and was absolutely beautiful. I would have loved to have given it 5 stars BUT it has two dishwashers that simply don’t work well and we ended up having to wash the majority of the dishes by hand. Personally, I don’t like wash dishing at home especially not when I’m on vacation cooking for a big family.

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Front Row Center. Plenty of space and room for the dogs. Everything has been thought of and it's a beautiful home. My grandfather used to rent a house for a week every year when we were kids and it was a time we always looked forward to. It's many years later by St. George still holds the magic for us. I'm hoping to make this a yearly trip for us in his memory. I also have to say that Gulf Coast Vacation Properties is amazing, specifically McKenzie and Kara. We will definitely rent with them again and if possible, it will be Front Row Center. This house is in the perfect location and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Needless to say, we did not want to leave!!

Front Row Center is the perfect house for a family getaway to the beach. All the rooms are spacious and have their own bathrooms. But the real gem is the Kitchen and living area. Very large and the most well stocked kitchen of any home rental I have ever experienced. They even provide you with a spice package for cooking, towels and sunscreen for the beach and beach chairs your whole crew can use. We had a professional chef come in to cook a special dinner and even he complimented the Kitchen! For outdoor fun...the beach is right out your back door and the pool is perfect for a cool dip in the late afternoon. We would definitely come back again!!

Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed at several homes over the years on SGI and Front Row Center is absolutely the most beautiful and well planned home we have ever stayed in!It had everything you could imagine, from the kitchen to the pool to the beach! And, the nicest touch was a tote bag filled with wonderful welcoming gifts. Unfortunately, one of the family members put it on the floor, thinking it was someone else’s tote and we did not discover the gifts until we were leaving and nobody claimed the tote. What a lovely thing to do, but please be sure and use it when you arrive.It was so nice to be able to utilize the pool or walk a few steps to the beach!The grandkids and adults enjoyed watching the dolphins play in the Gulf from the family room!As other people have mentioned in previous reviews, beware of the low hanging ceiling by the pool. One member of our group hit his head pretty hard. Thankfully, he was OK. Maybe some padding could help prevent this happening in the future.This house is perfect for families or couples!Highly recommended!
