About this property

Oceanfront Pet Friendly Condominium! Amenities Include Balcony, Pool, Beach Boardwalk

Shipwatch oceanfront condominiums, offered by Hodnett Cooper, have been a favorite family destination for many years. With just 52 residences, Shipwatch is a quiet community ideal for both weekend getaways and multiple month escapes.

Each residence features two bedrooms, two full baths, a combined living, dining, and kitchen area, and a private balcony.

Community amenities include boardwalk access to the heart of St. Simons' sand beaches, a swimming pool, large grass lawn, outdoor grills and complimentary in-room high speed internet service.

Though this community is located directly on the ocean, individual residences, unless otherwise specified, do not offer ocean views.

Shipwatch 215 has been completely updated to include new tile flooring throughout, new furnishings, and an upgraded kitchen. This renovated condominium is one of Hodnett Cooper's nicest offerings at Shipwatch. The living area is equipped with a 40 inch flat screen TV. The balcony has a wonderful porch swing perfect for enjoying the outdoors.

Missing the Basics for a Beach Vacation
Unit is smaller than it appears, which would have been fine but missing basic necessities like dish soap, hand soap, something to clean counters with after cooking. No extra towels provided. And was impossible to get across the long board walk to beach without being eaten up by mosquitos. Ended up having to battle the crowds at the public park beach access down the road. Complex pool was the best part of this location. Also not far from downtown area which is awesome. Would highly suggest management company keep the credit for bikes ect and provide basic supplies in unit.

Disappointing
Location to beach good. There's a long walk past the dunes but that's the case most every where along the beach. Pool & pool area very nice, very clean. What was disappointing: Advertised as renovated condo but not when. Guest book in condo states renovated in 2008 so don't expect it to be newly updated or modern & lack of quality cleaning over the last 16 years shows, especially on the balcony deck, baseboards & tile grout. Biggest disappointment was the constant noise from outside property construction/renovations. Loud saws, sanders, drills, tools, etc., daily, unsafe conditions at times. Fence railings along elevated deck path/cat walk to our 2nd story condo entrance were removed while we were staying there without any prior notice. And we have a dog who did not want to cross to the door without strong direction. And the same for other guests who had young children! Why not delay the repairs/replacement of fence railings to the occupied condos until they were vacated, or notify guests beforehand? We had no idea all those outside renovations were going to take place the week - Memorial Day week no less - we were there. The 4th day of our stay someone taped an "Excuse our mess..." note from the HOA on our door. Had we known the renovations were going to be done during our vacation week we would not have reserved the condo. Shame on Hodnett Cooper real estate, VRBO & the condo owners for inaccurate advertising & omission of the renovation work going on at the property.

Great place and great location. Pool was relaxing and loved that there were bathrooms by the pool so we didn’t have to go up to the room. The only issue was parking. Other than that we loved it!

Loved the dog-friendly atmosphere of the condo and property grounds. Private boardwalk to the beach was great also. Condo was good for our brief stay. It was very clean but did tend to get too warm in the guest bedroom even with the A/C turned low. Had to sleep in the living room coach pullout. A/C also made quite a bit of noise.

air conditioner issue
We enjoyed our stay. We did have a problem with the air conditioner dripping water on the floor at the entrance. Someone came and did a temporary fix which lasted until our last day when it started dripping again. Since we were leaving the next morning we did not ask for a second fix.

Fun family time
Small family fall vacation, 4 of us. Great location! Had 2 small dogs, great area to walk them in and dog bags provided! Easy beach access. Parking a tad tight but we have cars so no problem for us. Pool area was nice. Plenty of room to sleep everyone. Living and kitchen a bit tight if you had more than 4 or 5 people but definitely doable. Small balcony to sit and enjoy fresh air. Two nice size bathrooms.

Everything you need, nothing you don’t.
Nice place, basic essentials. Perfect for those of us who don’t stay in all that much. Very clean & comfortable. Small (stacked) washer & dryer means multiple loads of laundry per day & small kitchen, only room for one & nowhere to store groceries. We didn’t mind it, just letting others know. Thanks for having us, we enjoyed it so much!

Great location but needs updated and more comfortable for 6 not 8.
Property sleeps 8 but not comfortably. The pull out sofa bed was oversold as it was a sofa bed with a foam topper you had to add on. Only had towels for 6. The dryer was broken so property manager gave us access to the property next door to use their dryer. The freezer kept leaking water into the fridge section. Causing water to sit on anything you had in the fridge. The location is great and the property manager really worked hard to help but the property itself is sorely in need of some updates.
