We had a wonderful time! The property gave us plenty of room to spread out (the crib and trundle bed were a nice surprise). We had the pool heated during our stay and we used it daily. The location was great. We were able to bike to shops, playgrounds, the beach, and restaurants. The free bike rentals for 2 adults was also a nice bonus.

Thank you so much, Christy, for your lovely review of Circle Cottage. We are so happy to hear you had such a wonderful time and that the home gave your family plenty of space to relax and enjoy your stay. It is especially nice to know the heated pool was such a highlight and that the location made it easy to explore so much of St. Simons. We also love that you were able to take advantage of the bike rentals. Biking is such a fun way to enjoy the island and take in all its charm at your own pace.

It's rare that a property is better 'live' than in pictures, but the Circle Cottage was exactly that! It truly was stunning to walk through the front door and take in the beauty of the house. Every little detail was covered, from the coffee bar to all the light switches being marked, which was such a great touch. The check in was seamless, communicating with the property manager was so quick and easy, and everything was impeccably clean. The hot tub got HOT and the pool was pleasantly warm. Since our time fell during some unseasonably cold weather, the hot tub was a favorite place for our family! Great place, great area, and a great time for me and my family.
