Wendy is a wonderful and attentive host. The cart to take items to the beach was appreciated by all. We enoyed the bikes, kayak, toys, and games provided. We visited the pool which has the graduated entry and it was perfect for the younger kids. The quiet beach is just what we were looking for. Thank you Wendy for sharing your home at the beach.

We had awesome communication with host and she was highly responsive. Loved the house and property. It’s so shady with seating areas. Enjoyed the bikes so much, as well as beach and pool. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was great, grill was great and sofas comfortable. Area under the house is great as well and we sat there often! Living room has windows that allow the outside trees to surround you. Great seating areas on deck. We had an awesome time and would stay again. Welcome gifts were huge surprise and such an appreciated touch.

A great family trip to the beach! Our host, Wendy was thoughtful and a great communicator.The house and location are wonderful. The home is well appointed and so welcoming. You can tell this is a home meant for families to enjoy time together. Between games, a kayak and SUP, bunk beds, restaurant recommendations, blocks, smart tvs (perfect for watching college bowl games after a day at the beach), this was the perfect spot to unwind. I loved that the decor was thoughtful and fun and not a sterile and bland like some beach rentals.The beach is easy to get to (which i say from a perspective of traveling with 3 small kids). Definitely recommend this VRBO space!

About the host

Hosted by Wendy Giovannotto

Host profile image

My Husband and I met 43 years ago as high school sweethearts in New York. We then moved to Atlanta for him to attend Chiropractic college at Life University. Atlanta became our home where we raised our 4 children. We have always loved vacationing with our children and creating memories together. We truly enjoy spending time together as a family! My husband and I always promised each other one day...we would get back to the beach! The time finally came, our dream became a reality "Back To The Beach". After 9 years of ownership, many fun trips and countless memories. We decided we wanted to share it with others so they could experience St. George Island as well.
We hope you create the best memories in our home with your family and friends during your stay at Back To The Beach!
