Studio Sea: Affordable, Private Pool, 1 Block to Beach, Pets Welcome, Sleeps 10

Just a short walk to the beach, Studio Sea is a renovated, four-bedroom Florida beach cottage. A king bedroom and a twin bedroom are on the upper level. A large king bedroom and XL-twin over queen bunk bedroom, and bath are on the lower level with a separate entrance, making it perfect for two families or couples. These two floors are connected via an exterior staircase.

Cool off in the pool, worship the sun from the third floor deck, or sit on the porch with family and friends. Let the morning greet you in the sunny living area, which includes an open concept kitchen, dining and living space.

Recently a dining space was added on the third floor deck. Dine under the stars and by fairy light.

Like much of St. George Island, Studio Sea is pet friendly.

During the day take advantage of all available activities on St. George Island or shop in Apalachicola. "Dr. Beach" rates the beaches of St. George Island as one of the top five beaches in the United States. In the evening, have dinner at one of the many restaurants on the island and in Apalachicola, where you will find some of the best seafood in the United States.

Bring your bike or rent one on the island. Studio Sea is right across the street from the island bike path. The cottage is just a short bike ride to shops, markets, restaurants and fresh seafood.

Great fishing is available from the beach, the pier, or at the beautiful state park on the east end of the Island. A number of fishing charters are available in the area; ask about our favorite charter captain.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fireplace.

Always enjoy Studio Sea

This was our third year at Studio Sea and we have already booked for a fourth. The location is perfect for a quick walk to the beach yet off the busier main road. The private pool is perfect. The interior is spacious and the separate living areas with private entrances are perfect for a small family or couples desiring to stay at the same location but still have separate personal space. The decks offer wonderful views of the ocean. Kitchen and living area in the upstairs unit provide are spacious for family dinners and game nights!

Loved the cottage, pool, location and amenities of this home away from home. From the time we arrived the peaceful feel was amazing. Across the street one block is a boardwalk that is direct beach access. Great food and live music witnin a mile or so and the Island has so much to offer! Historical Apalachicola is 10 minutes away.

Beautiful location

This was such a lovely and spacious beach residence. It is a short walk to the beach where the sand is so soft & white. Your 4-legged furry friends are welcome and ours absolutely loved her first experience with waves. The home is really nice and offers all the comforts of home as well as a private swimming pool. The neighborhood is quiet and everyone you pass on the road is friendly. We will be back!!!
