There are two master suites, one on the first floor and the other upstairs both featuring relacing master baths that invite you to let go of your worries and settle into beach life. Vaulted ceilings in the living room provide an open and airy feel. The home features hardwood floors downstairs and carpeted spaces upstairs (for quiet and fur babies comfort). Each bedroom and the main room have flat panel televisions with Dish Network, Fire TV. There are DVD players and a DVD library in case of an inclement day or if someone gets sunburned snd needs a bit of time “in”. Sea Gem has a collection of games and jigsaw puzzles for some family bonding. The kitchen is chock full of anything you could need including both a Keurig and a standard coffee maker. Plus, a local owner a gew blocks away is ready to help if you need anything! If you cannot completely "unplug" there is free wi-fi that can run all your family's devices with no buffering!

Rock away with your favorite book or beverage on the covered front porch, or have lunch on the sun deck below while watching the kids splash in the private heated pool (extra heat fee-available only in Spring and Fall). There is a charcoal grill, enclosed outdoor shower, and even a few beach toys! We have a kayak and a bike or two for the more adventurous travelers!

I grew up in Iowa and travelled and lived all over the place! Currently, I live in Tallahassee but I still root for my Hawkeyes!

Why they chose this property

St. George Island is my idea of paradise. I fell in love with Sea Gem when I sat on a rocking chair listening to the ocean and the birds. It's a perfect blend of the gulf beach and privacy. It's not a big sterile rental, but a warm peaceful home that feels cozier than its 2550 sq ft. All this and it's just steps from the sugar sand beach of the gulf for my morning and sunset walks. I fell in love!

What makes this property unique

Some of my favorite things about this Gem are the views from the living room, the table (where I work the crossword), and the fact that I can hear all the birds singing as well as the sound of the surf. If you leave the upstairs master bedroom shutters open, the morning light wakes you up to spectacular gulf views (often of dolphins passing by). The heated private pool is also wonderful (especially at night for star gazing and floating cares away).
