Great place to relax on fall break

Island Rhythm was a perfect place to relax on St George Island. With bedrooms on three levels, there was ample room for teens who wanted their own space. The kitchen was perfectly equipped for gourmet cooking and the beachfront location was great for short midday breaks and nighttime walks. Highly recommend this house!

Awesome House

Spent a great week at this lovely home on a great part of the beach in SGI. We were 2 families with 6 teenagers for 7 days. While the teenagers were a bit cozy, they were fine with that and there was enough space for everyone. House is as advertised and the owner was wonderful. Highly recommend and we would definitely rent again.

Highly recommend for multiple families

This home was perfect for my family. There was plenty of space for everyone and never felt crowded. We had 11 people and the space worked very well. The pool being located across the street from the driveway made it easy with small children. Very quiet street and no traffic. Great family rental.

Great Location, Great Space

Nice amount of space on a beautifully sited lot. The house could work well for two families as there are two bedrooms and two baths and a sitting room on the lower level, and then the Master and Loft on the upper two levels. While very clean, the house is in need of some refreshing with regard to furnishings.

Breathtaking !

We reluctantly left - wish we could stay forever! The views from the home are unparalleled. Just breathtaking. We especially loved the panorama views from the dining room. Since it was just 2 of us we had a hard time deciding which oceanfront bedroom to stay in!!! We finally ended up at the very top and enjoyed the vaulted ceilings in that bedroom- we could hear the ocean and see the stars from the bed at night. It’s a beautiful home. Kitchen is well equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed it all.

Spectacular and comfortable

This house is exactly what it is advertised to be and is a great set up. It has all the amenities you could want. We had a family of 4 with 2 children ages 6 and 8 and an additional couple, and the set up was perfect. The family of 4 were on the 1st floor and the couple on the 2nd floor. We had room for more on the 3rd floor and used that as a "reading room." The kitchen is lovely and the view is spectacular. We had been to SGI once before and so were less in the exploring mode and already knew places to go both on SGI and in Apalachicola, etc. We had a FABULOUS boat ride and treasure hunt on the "deserted island" for the kids through Jolly Roger which I highly recommend. It was a real highlight. I would say the only caveat is that there are a lot of steps in the house - not a problem at all for our group, but for anyone with physical limitations, this could have been an issue. Lovely house and would happily go back!

St. George Isn't what it's cracked up to be

We had never been to St. George Island before. We decided to go on the recommendation of good friends. The house we rented was in the Plantation right on the beach. What we didn't know was the beach is very narrow and pretty steep so there's not a lot of room to walk, exercise, take the dogs out, and just relax. In addition, the "Red Tide" was out and we could not even sit on the deck as the smell was so bad and the Red Tide also hurt everyone's lungs to breath. The house was okay at best as it was not what it was advertised to be. For example, there were two, yes only two dish towels for the kitchen, no brush to help with dirty dishes, very little soap to use, the hot tub did not work, and overall the house was not clean. There were roaches every where. I do mean every where. They were climbing up and down the walls in broad day light. Would we do this again. No. We'll go back to the South Carolina beach where we've been going for many years.

Yet Another Amazing Fall Break With Friends and Perfect Weather

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay yet again, and this was our second year in a row at this house in late September. Its hard really to find something negative to write about this house/property, but if I had to pick, I'd probably point out that the "new" fridge (different than last year) doesn't really cool very well or fast. Some of that may have been due to the traffic in/out with all the mouths we fed, and the ice maker seemed to maybe have some sediment in the water line so we just bagged it. That kept the 5th star away. And outside of the mosquitos that were just awful once you got off the beach, and this was true all over the island, the weather and water temp and overall experience was just fantastic - even the dolphins were excited to see us and put on several aerial displays while we were there. We came down this time with a extra family and the house easily supported two families, especially with the sleeping room and carpeted common area on the 2nd floor. Imagine I'll be calling Carla again next year. Having a nearby, basically private pool at our disposal, was also a great plus for this property, and lastly, compliments to the management for DVRing the Bama game for me - a special request that I knew was above and beyond, yet they managed to pull it off since we drove down on a Saturday.

Spacious but not worth the price

House was spacious but if you have elderly or disabled people in your group this would be a nightmare, two flights of stairs to get to middle level then two more flights to the main level.where kitchen is located, also stairs up.to a landing over the dune and then down more stairs to get to the beach. Also owner/ property manager did not tell us we couldn't have our golf cart on the plantation property, so we were stopped coming through the gate and told we would have to leave it at the fire dept. No one was there and we had other things on our trailer so we went to unload and the property manager/ girlfriend of the owner called me saying we took cart to the house after being told not to.Then sent security, we parked cart in garage and left it there the whole trip, would not have brought it if only we were informed! House needs updating, screened porch screen damaged so couldn't use, Mosquitos were terrible!! Will never stay in The Plantation again, too many community rules, really not impressed for the price of this place, we love St. George just not this gated community.

changed property management

We rented and paid through VRBO but the property was no longer listed with VRBO when we arrived. Slow contact to get in to unit. The names of all guests were not provided to the guard shack at the community entrance. The new manager had all our information but did not provide it to the guard. . The guard was decent and let us in but I had to contact the new manager and resubmit the names. I called the new manager on the drive down to get more details and no one called back until the next day. When we arrived the air conditioner on the upper level was leaking water on the stairs creating an extreme hazard. There was a towel on the steps to soak up the water. When I called they said they weren't aware of the problem, which I thought was odd because there was a towel there. They sent their crew and had to come back to repair the A/C. There were other problems during our stay and maintenance had to come several times to fix things. Of course I had to stay in the house when the repairs were made while everyone else was on the beach. I am still waiting on my damage deposit to be refunded and I do not know who will send it. I have sent a message.

Beachfront / private pool / awesome views / perfect location in Plantation

We rent on SGI often - 6 times in the last 18 months. I have shopped for the best value and experience (dog friendly) and I have found it. Pirate's Booty is at the end of the Plantation next to "the Cut" where you will find pristine beaches and awesome water. You can get that elsewhere, but the difference is the unbelievable views from the main living area on floor 2 and the top floor 3 where there are 3 bedrooms with their own full baths and 2 masters that face the Gulf with a walk-out deck to each. We did not know how much the pool would add to our experience but we found out it added a ton. The family plays on the beach all day and retreats to Pirate's Booty in the late afternoon. A warm and clean beachfront pool right next to your private boardwalk is truly unique - we used it every day. By late afternoon, we usually had enough sand and welcomed the refreshing pool to enjoy that margarita or frosty beverage before getting ready for the short ride to some of the freshest and best seafood on the Planet. There are some places on the Island, but we really love Lynn's just over the bridge to the East (doesn't look like much, but the fresh seafood is amazing and very affordable). Up The Creek in Apalachicola is a few miles farther but a beautiful drive to the West into the quaint town of Apalachicola where our favorite waitress Harley always gives us the best advice - last night it was the freshest flounder and shrimp. And. . . do not miss the oysters that slept in the Gulf the night before - could not be any fresher. The place was "The Bomb" and we received awesome customer service from the management when we needed a tweek of the freon in the AC unit - they answered the phone and sent the service company within a few hours and the issue was fixed! We were so appreciative that they did not dodge us and stepped up - we will be back as soon as we can get there. Plantation security / beachfront / views / pool . . . this place has all we could want and it is clean and well-appointed. And, guess what? The fish bite right in front of your rental - pompano, whiting, and lots of other types - bring your surf gear of get some cheap at the bait shops local. Last, a fully functioning shower with hot water and a bathroom right next to the pool. . . what a surprise! Get the kids cleaned up right after you get them from the pool - awesome.
