Ship watch

The place was spotless, but the mattress toppers/egg crates are NOT conducive to a good night’s sleep. We did send an email with a photo when we first got there pointing out the split fabric on the arm of the sofa.Also, it’s stretching it a bit to call it an “ocean view.” It’s more like an “if you lean out a bit on the balcony you can catch a glimpse of the ocean.”

Adequate

Pool was dirty. Cushions were full of mildew. Porch had debris from storm. Challenging to get to the beach and much longer walk than described on the website. Interior was ok. Different from photos. Outdated. Not as comfortable as I was hoping for.

Very clean and peaceful

The condo was very clean. There was plenty of space for our 2 children, my husband, and me. We loved the comfortable furniture on the balcony and the beautiful view of the foliage. The gates and fences made us feel very safe during our stay.

Shipwatch 210

We enjoyed this property. Easy walk to the Beach. The owner does need a few more kitchen utensils. The only issue I have with this property is the communication from the rental company for the codes to the property. Their emails, portal and text messages do not have the same codes. They need a better system to make sure all of the codes correspond.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Terrible smell & bad communication

Upon arrival, it was obvious that smokers live here, which was not indicated in the listing. I had to keep all the sliding doors open to tolerate the smell. I called and emailed the mgmt with ZERO response. Extremely disappointed. The outdated decor didn’t bother me, but the overall age showed in general “crustiness” of the unit. It needs new fixtures desperately. The kitchen was not well stocked. The dryer ruined a few pieces of clothing- a black substance stained clothes and the drawstring on a swimsuit was caught & ruined. The only positives- The beds were comfortable and the porch was nice.

Amazing vacation in St Simons Island

We enjoyed our stay! Check-in and check-out was a breeze! The condo was perfect for our family, the location is convenient to restaurants and shops. The beach was a short walk from the resort. We definitely recommend this rental!
