Cute Cottage 3 Blocks to Beach & Village! BRAND NEW remodel Fall of 2024!

Premiere location, furnishings, and linens. A 6 minute walk to the beach or 10 minutes to the Village. Enjoy dining al fresco, grilling, or relaxing in the privacy fenced back yard on the sun deck or covered porch. A large installed outdoor fan makes the warmer days cooler, and the chiminea makes the cooler evenings cozier. The home has a newly remodeled and nicely equipped, bright kitchen with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and white quartz countertops. The kitchen is open to the living room on one side and a separate sunroom on the other that can be either left open or closed off with sliding barn doors.

The home is furnished with new, comfortable, and beautiful seating and bedding, four Samsung flat-screen TVs, Amazon Echo, wi-fi, and an in-wall safe. Beautiful, clean tiled floors throughout along with air purifiers make this pet-friendly home comfortable for everyone.

There is off street parking for four vehicles, including a driveway and additional paved parking in front of the house. There is a separate, indoor laundry room furnished with a new washer and dryer.

An outdoor shower with hot water is the perfect place to rinse off the sand or enjoy a shower al fresco.

A beach wagon, 2 umbrellas, 4 sand chairs, and an extra-large foldable dog crate are in the utility room, accessed from inside the garage.

A cleaning Fee of $150, which VRBO identifies as "Host Fees" will be included in your total. This is the ONLY required "Host Fee." If you are bringing a pet, you should check the Box for Pet when making your reservation, and a $175 pet fee, which VRBO also describes as a "Host Fee" will be included in your total.

"Service Fees" are paid to VRBO as their compensation. VRBO collects local and state taxes and pays them directly to the tax collecting authorities, as required by law.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Great host and property in St Simons Island

We were very pleased with this property. The location was very convenient with an easy 10-minute walk to the beach or pier and shops. It was clean and updated with good appliances and spaces. All three bedrooms had king beds, which was great for our group. We had a problem with the lock on the house, but the owner was very responsive and helpful. I would stay there again!

Our favorite place to stay!

We have been coming to St Simons for years and stayed in many nice places, but the Rich’s beach house is our favorite. It is always clean and ready for us. The newly remodeled kitchen area is a big plus. It’s beautiful! When we bring our dog, the fenced-in backyard is his favorite hangout. Beds are comfy. Once we park the car, we walk everywhere. -beach, restaurants, shopping, downtown. Great house and location!

Great wedding weekend!

We stayed at this cute cottage for my sons wedding. The property is in a great location close to the beach and village. We loved that it had a great outdoor space and fenced backyard with a small lawn. The property owners were very quick to respond when we had a minor problem operating the living room tv. We would definitely stay here again on a future visit!

Very happy and relaxing vacation

We really enjoyed out time in the cottage. The yellow walls were so cheery, and the house was very comfortable. We were very impressed with the cleanliness of the house. We appreciated that we could bring our small dog, and she loved sitting on the couches on the sheets provided. We were pleased to be able to walk to the beach and village. We spent time in the nearby park and were fascinated by the giant live oak trees with their spreading limbs draped with Spanish moss. We have already reserved a longer time next year and look forward to returning.

Wonderful St. Simons home! Parked the car when we arrived, and didn't use it again until we left. Perfect location to walk to beach and Village. The home was comfortably decorated and fully appointed with anything you would need for a beach vacation. We also loved how dog-friendly it was--made traveling a breeze. Will definitely stay here again!

This spacious 3 bedroom house was very comfortable. The beds were great and no attention to detail was lost throughout the property. There were extra beach chairs, towels and an umbrella. There was even an auger available to use for the umbrella. Any time I had a question the owner was super quick to respond. Easy walk to the beach and restaurants. We will definitely be back!

Perfect place

This house is the perfect place for a St Simons Island vacation. It's on a short, quiet, side street but is literally a 2 to 3 minute drive to restaurants, shopping, and beaches. You could probably walk to the village area in 5 to 10 minutes tops. The house is well stocked with anything you might need and check in/out is a breeze. The owner was extremely responsive and very kind. I hope we get the chance to stay here again.

Another wonderful vacation at Sea la Vie

We visited Bonnie’s cottage again, this time with friends, family and dogs. The experience was as wonderful this time as the last. The house is very comfortably outfitted, including for the dogs. The fenced yard and covered outdoor space made it possible for all to spend substantial time relaxing in the outdoors, and the outdoor shower is a great feature after a walk on the beach. Check in is easy and Bonnie is extremely responsive and helpful. The location itself can’t be beat as it’s just a short walk to the beach or the village.
