Enjoyed our stay and loved the location. Could not ask for better weather and ocean view. Property was very clean ( minus some kitchen ware) and the entire process was very easy. My recommendation on whoever rents if you are doing a good amount of cooking will need to bring some of your own supplies. Spices, cooking utensils, foil/saran wrap, trash bags (only had 4 below the sink) and most important for us...a coffer maker!!! They had one but it took a lot longer to brew than the average coffee maker and we are big coffee drinkers. Would stay again but would more prepared as far as the kitchen.

Perfect vacation spot!!

What a great property this was. It was very roomy and very well appointed. It had lots of dishes, utensils, and plenty of pots and pans. It had everything you would need. The view was spectacular. We had a great time and would definitely rent this home again.

Great location, house needs attention.

Great location and could be a great house. Beds were great, but all other furnishings need to be replaced inside and out. Drapes were filthy and the lower deck is in poor shape. Mold in the washing machine and roaches in the kitchen.

Beach music

Spacious, comfortable, beachfront home in the lovely Plantation. So close to the Gulf that the music of the water was a constant delight! Also great shelling, which we particularly enjoy. They were doing some upgrades and updating to the property, which will be helpful...the new boardwalk to the beach was wonderful, so I am sure the rest will be, too.

Loved SGI

This was a first time stay at SGI for the entire group, some driving from as far away as Louisiana, Arkansas, and GA. The relative simplicity of the island may be a draw back for some visitors, but we all enjoyed the peace and ease of getting around, whether on foot, bike, or car. The Plantation amenities (pool, tennis, fitness center) were a nice addition. This house is right on the beach -- just as described. We all enjoyed the wide porch looking south over the water both morning and evening. We recommend early June as the weather was not too hot/humid yet and the island was not packed. It was a five-star vacation!

A little disappointing

We have stayed in several upscale beachfront homes in St George Island’s Plantation neighborhood, and while this home’s location is super, it did not live up to its description of upscale. It is in need of several updates (furniture, porch repair), the hot tub was not functional, and the storm covers were permanently locked in the down position on 4 of the 6 windows on the main floor (thus blocking the ocean view). We feel if you are going to advertise and charge a premium price for an upscale beachfront home, it should live up to its billing.

The Plantation at St. George Island: A Mixed Review

This past Labor Day week, our extended family of six (five adults and one child) stayed at The Plantation at St. George Island for the first time. While the location and amenities were fantastic, there were several areas where the house fell short. Positives: * Prime Location: The Plantation's beachfront location is unbeatable. * Spacious Accommodations: The house was large enough to comfortably accommodate our group. * Gated Community: The gated community offers a sense of security and provides miles of walking and biking trails. * Amenities: Guests have access to two pools, a clubhouse, and tennis courts. Negatives: * Maintenance Issues: Upon arrival, we noticed dirty sofas and mold in the ceiling vent of the living room. In addition, one of the guest rooms had a dirty diaper and a strong odor of urine. * Back Porch Condition: The back porch was spacious but poorly maintained, with rusty nails and a mildewy rug. *Overall cleanliness could have been better with dusty shelves and garbage under beds from previous guests. * HVAC Disruption: During our stay, unannounced HVAC maintenance caused a significant inconvenience by shutting off the air conditioning for over five hours. While we enjoyed the Plantation's location and amenities, the maintenance issues and cleanliness concerns in the house were significant enough to deter us from staying there again. We would consider staying within the Plantation community in the future, but would choose a different property.
