Great Beach Cottage

We loved the location of this home, and it was perfect size for the 4 of us. I don’t recall seeing in the description and pictures that the back porch was screened in, so that was a nice surprise.

Family Vacation

We enjoyed viewing both sunrises and sunsets from the screened in porch. The rental was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking family meals. We would definitely rent again!

Celebrate my mom's 80th.

Great view and a great house. Everything was updated and clean. My only complaint was the lack of storage in the bedrooms. Only one bedroom had a closet, and there was no drawer space. It did not impact our stay. Overall we had a great time, and we would stay here again.

Beach front!!

We had a wonderful time. As other reviews said, the house is compact, but you're at the beach! The house was close enough to Center town to be accessible for the teens to walk and get snacks or shop, but far enough that the beach was not crowded at all, even on spring break. The house had perfect outdoor space, including some screened in (in case of rain), and a deck on each side of house (in case people want privacy). The bed was reasonably comfortable, but more pillows would be nice. The kitchen had ample cookware, but no other supplies. I've stayed at several locations in sgi, so iknow this scarcity of supplies is typical of the island. If you want to avoid paying top dollar at the piggly wiggly consider bringing the following; toilet paper paper towels, basic cleaning supplies, disk detergent, laundry detergent supplies, salt/ pepper, olive oil, basic spices. It rained a few days which underscored this house's best feature. BEACH SIDE. I read for hours on the screened porch watching the ocean. The check in procedure was a little stressful, i heard several different answers about how to handle my late arrival (typically they want you to pick up access info at the office). The issue was resolved last minute (one employee finally answered my question clearly). Nor a big deal, but it would be easier to simply email details for access the day before. I ABSOLUTELY WANT TO RETURN TO THIS LOVELY SPACE. THANK YOU

This location is near public walkover but still plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Great house with awesome covered and screened porch. We spent most of our time either on the porch or beach but inside the house is a comfortable and cool retreat.

Delightful late winter stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This beach house was perfect for our stay on St. George Island the first two weeks of March. Lovely, comfortable furniture, nice size dining table, ocean view from the kitchen sink and good floor plan. Size overkill for a couple, but we really wanted two bathrooms - both were roomy and modern (BYO soap, shampoo and conditioner). Not much storage space in the bedrooms, so we used one for luggage. Were delighted to discover part of the deck had been screened in and a high top with chairs had been added since we had viewed the property last spring. Made it possible for us to see over the railing to the beach and ocean right out front. Thank you to the owners for this change! The wrap-around deck is a delight. When we discovered a plumbing issue upon taking possession, the Suncoast properties was very responsive - plumber arrived promptly. Appreciated prior review tips to bring own hairdryer & laundry basket. The kitchen is stocked with nice glassware, silverware, coffee cups, table settings, cookware, toaster and nice coffeemaker - bring your own #4 filters. May need to provide your own amenities like tin foil, liquid dish detergent, storage containers, trash bags - all are available at the Piggly Wiggly on the island. Great location for an easy bike ride or walk to town. Lovely beach in front of the house.

Martini Del Mar - December 2023 4-week stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Martini Del Mar is cute & cozy! The location by the boardwalk is far enough away to not be disturbed by foot traffic. We used the boardwalk to go to the beach rather than the path from the house.The living area is bright with natural light from the windows during the day; the overhead lighting is good for evenings. The furniture is comfortable & in good repair. There is a HiSense TV with ROKU. The kitchen is galley-style and small, but plenty of storage space in the cabinets. It is well stocked with pots, blender, mixer, coffee maker, toaster, cutting boards and knives, serving and storage containers, and Fiestaware dishes. The master bedroom has limited storage (plenty of room for a week but a longer stay requires some tetris-ing to unpack everything). The Queen bed is comfortable. There is a ceiling fan, two night stands with lamps, and a tv. The bathroom is en-suite with a walk-in shower.The other two bedrooms share the hall bathroom which has a bathtub/shower. The first bedroom has a closet available for use and a Queen bed. It also has the keyless entry box that flashes all night, but strategic placement of items can block the light to allow an undisturbed rest. There is a ceiling fan and a nightstand. The other bedroom has a full/twin bunkbed and no dresser or closet access. The ceiling fan is disabled for safety. We used the room as extra storage when it wasn't needed for a family member to sleep.The deck/porch is a key feature of this house. It goes along three sides so you can get sun or stay out of the wind all day. The back part is screened in but with the type of screen you can actually see through.The underhouse parking area can hold 3-4 vehicles if you park carefully. The laundry room is underneath the house so you do want to leave space to access it. There is a stacked washer/dryer (full size) which worked efficiently. Bring a laundry bag!The outdoor lighting is dim for turtles, so

Great place, nicely remodeled

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Martini del Mar. As others have mentioned, the property is right next to a public access point, but we still had no trouble getting a good spot for our beach tent each morning. The unit has recently been remodeled and tastefully redone and we really like that a portion of the back porch is screened in. A few things that I would want to know if I was a first timer here:1 - Bring a laundry basket - the w/d is located at the parking level and so this is SUPER helpful to carry the laundry up and down. Also, the door to the w/d room sticks so just push a little.2 - No hair dryer - none is provided, so if you want one bring you own.3 - Beach chairs and other stuff - some houses have a small collection of beach stuff - chairs, toys, boogie boards, etc for you to use/borrow. Not this house. We brought our own and were thankful that we did.4 - TV - The house has 2 Roku tvs, but the ability to add apps is PIN protected. We have Roku sticks at home, so I don't mind this approach, but I would liked to be able to add the app for the subscriptions that I pay for to the tv. I would recommend the owner check out the "Guest Access" options with Roku. I was unable to add YouTubeTV to watch and found that prior renters had left PrimeVideo and DisneyPlus logged into their accounts which is risky for those prior renters too.5 - Grill - the only grill is a beach style in-the-ground one. The wind comes directly off the beach and made it very difficult to get the coals hot enough to grill. We ended up skipping the grilling. We have used this type grill at other rental houses, but the location of this one prevented it from working well for us.We enjoyed this place and would return next year, but are going with a larger group and therefore, need a larger house. If 3 bedrooms, 2 baths is the right size for you, you won't be disappointed in this house!
