About this property

Cute Cottage 3 Blocks to Beach & Village! BRAND NEW remodel Fall of 2024!

Premiere location, furnishings, and linens. A 6 minute walk to the beach or 10 minutes to the Village. Enjoy dining al fresco, grilling, or relaxing in the privacy fenced back yard on the sun deck or covered porch. A large installed outdoor fan makes the warmer days cooler, and the chiminea makes the cooler evenings cozier. The home has a newly remodeled and nicely equipped, bright kitchen with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and white quartz countertops. The kitchen is open to the living room on one side and a separate sunroom on the other that can be either left open or closed off with sliding barn doors.

The home is furnished with new, comfortable, and beautiful seating and bedding, four Samsung flat-screen TVs, Amazon Echo, wi-fi, and an in-wall safe. Beautiful, clean tiled floors throughout along with air purifiers make this pet-friendly home comfortable for everyone.

There is off street parking for four vehicles, including a driveway and additional paved parking in front of the house. There is a separate, indoor laundry room furnished with a new washer and dryer.

An outdoor shower with hot water is the perfect place to rinse off the sand or enjoy a shower al fresco.

A beach wagon, 2 umbrellas, 4 sand chairs, and an extra-large foldable dog crate are in the utility room, accessed from inside the garage.

A cleaning Fee of $150, which VRBO identifies as "Host Fees" will be included in your total. This is the ONLY required "Host Fee." If you are bringing a pet, you should check the Box for Pet when making your reservation, and a $175 pet fee, which VRBO also describes as a "Host Fee" will be included in your total.

"Service Fees" are paid to VRBO as their compensation. VRBO collects local and state taxes and pays them directly to the tax collecting authorities, as required by law.

Great host and property in St Simons Island

We were very pleased with this property. The location was very convenient with an easy 10-minute walk to the beach or pier and shops. It was clean and updated with good appliances and spaces. All three bedrooms had king beds, which was great for our group. We had a problem with the lock on the house, but the owner was very responsive and helpful. I would stay there again!

Another great time in St. Simons

We had another excellent stay in St. Simons. Sea La Vie is very conveniently located and is very dog friendly, which is important for us and our pups. Bonnie is a great host and was extremely quick to reply for the small things we reached out about. Definitely a nice home and close to the restaurants and shops.

Sea la Vie is one of nicest places we’ve rented in the 15 years we’ve been coming to SSI 1,2 & 3 times a year. Our needs have changed over the years. Sea la Vie met those needs with a beautifully updated well equipped kitchen and floor plan, 3bedrooms, everything you need for the beach, beautiful glassed in porch for chilling and hanging out after hours. My favorite place! My dog loved watching for squirrels in the fenced in yard when we weren't taking early morning walks in the park. Owners provided dog covers for all the furniture so mine stayed in the car. They’ve thought of everything to make it easy and hospitable. We hope to rent Sea la Vie again, in the park. Sea la Vie was convenient to wherever we wanted to go via golf cart or car.

Wonderful St. Simons home! Parked the car when we arrived, and didn't use it again until we left. Perfect location to walk to beach and Village. The home was comfortably decorated and fully appointed with anything you would need for a beach vacation. We also loved how dog-friendly it was--made traveling a breeze. Will definitely stay here again!

We stayed at this cute cottage for my sons wedding. The property is in a great location close to the beach and village. We loved that it had a great outdoor space and fenced backyard with a small lawn. The property owners were very quick to respond when we had a minor problem operating the living room tv. We would definitely stay here again on a future visit!

About the host

Hosted by Randy and Bonnie Rich

Host profile image
We've been married for 24 years, have two college students and 2 rescue dogs. Vacations without our fur babies are bittersweet, so we want to have a beautiful, clean and safe place where you can enjoy vacationing with your pets.

Why they chose this property

We've been visiting St. Simons Island as a family for years. We love playing on the beach, walking under the old live oaks, kayaking the marsh, biking the streets, shopping and dining in the Village, and most of all, being a part of this laid back lifestyle with the people. Buying our own home here is a dream come true!

What makes this property unique

We've always been drawn to the quaint, older homes on the Island. We love that this house is 45 years old, has so much charm, yet is bright, updated and beautiful and is situated on a quiet street full of old live oaks and palm trees. We also love that we can park our car and walk to the beach and the Village or bike or golf cart anywhere else we want to go!
