Emil was great to work with as was Laura, the property manager. All our questions whether email or phone were answered promply. The bungalow was clean, the kitchen was well stocked, and the beds were comfortable. The beach access is really just a few steps from the bungalows. We loved our stay and will be back next year.
Laura was awesome and if I had a problem she addressed it immediately! The beach is right here! Great location! Make sure you go to paddy’s when you’re there!!
Our stay was amazing and the place had everything we needed. We enjoyed the beach and the pool. The property manager was amazing and helped us with anything we needed. Thank y’all for an amazing stay!
my wife and i thought it great, we are already starting to plan to go back. the island was great the property was great and the property manager was great
Perfect spot for a ladies quick get-away. 8 blocks to the "main street', quick walk to the beautiful beach, lovely pool to cool off. Easy check in with property manager. Not the Ritz but comfortable and meets all needs.
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the BeachBum property on St. George Island. Condo was very clean. No stairs to climb. Had all the amenities we needed. Very close to beach dune walk over.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Units were as advertised as far as size and location. Ours was clean and had everything we needed. The pool and pool area was clean. The owner and onsite manager were very friendly and quick to respond to any questions. It was quiet too. I would definitely rent again.
My wife and I enjoyed the stay and have no complaints, although we did have a slight problem with plumbing, and it was handled expediently. We would like to give a special shout-out to Laura. She is a 5-star plus as a manager.
My husband and I brought our two teenage boys down. Great location!!! Easy check in!!! Laura and Emil were both awesome with communication! The beds were VERY comfortable and everything was just perfect! Could not have asked for more. Will definitely stay again and 100% recommend to anyone looking for a reasonably priced vacation rental on SGI!!!
