Summary:

Happy Endings



The Space:

Gulf views, seamless beach access, and close proximity to numerous attractions spell out a sublime vacation. Simply exiting out the back of this home puts you on the sand, not to mention several other beaches are only a short drive away. St. George Island also boasts a number of scenic parks everyone can explore together if you'd prefer to stay closer to dry land. Fishing enthusiasts have a lot to appreciate here as well thanks to the numerous piers and fishing charters offering guests mellow days on the water.



The outdoor shower at your vacation home is great for washing off residual beach sand. After a refreshing rinse, step inside to a vast open-concept living space with abundant lighting shining through the numerous Gulf-view windows. Gaming enthusiasts will love trying to get the highest scores on the retro arcade cabinets throughout the house. The wide, well-equipped kitchen is perfect for group cooking projects everyone can enjoy at the table or kitchen bar. Better yet, dine alfresco under the house at the table before comfortably lounging on one of the hammocks as the warm Florida air brushes against your face. There is a Weber charcoal grill for guests use. Through all the bedrooms sport plush bedding, the primary bedroom is the star of the show due to its en suite and direct deck access. Begin and end your days with picturesque views of the water!



Central air-conditioning and a washer/dryer round out this home's amenities.



Things to Know

The pool also has a water chiller and an additional Pool Heat fee of $75 per day.

Amazing gulf-front location. The home has tons of character. Open floor plan, covered and uncovered patios, outdoor shower, hot tub, pool, and so much more. Our kids loved the game table and easy access to the beach. Plenty of beach toys and chairs were provided. I highly recommend this rental.

We enjoyed a relaxing few days enjoying the sounds of the surf. The screened porch was the most used space by my husband and me with beautiful sunrise views and sunset colors! We loved seeing the dolphins playing in the ocean everyday.

The house was very nice, just as depicted and described. Clean. Kitchen was well equipped. The best part was the location just steps from the beach. Also really enjoyed having the pool to swim and cool off. The pool was quite slippery, so get in and out carefully.

This place is absolutely amazing! We had one of the most peaceful getaways that I could have imagined. The property is better than the description and the ocean is literally out the back door. The host went over and beyond what is required and payed extra detail to the "little things"! I highly recommend staying here! I know our family will definitely be back!

Wonderful vacation!

Happy Endings is a fantastic property! It’s right on the beach. The house includes kayaks, surfboard, a golf cart, elevator, fire place and so much more. My family and I have been coming to St. George Island for 40 years and this has been one of my favorite houses. It is beautiful, comfortable, well-stocked and homey! Thank you for a perfect week!

Response from VrboOwner on 31 July 2023
Thank you for your review! I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. We cant wait to have you back soon. In reference to the lock- this is in regards to a back sliding door that faces the ocean. The lock mechanism has been corroded and eaten out by the salt water, causing it to have issues locking. There is a security metal pole in this sliding door that is used to secure it. This replacement lock is custom to the door manufacturer and has been ordered. Like everything else in the country right now, they are on back order. We hope to have this repaired soon. Doors can still be secured from the inside using the security pole. There is a deadbolt on the front door. The dishwasher is not advertised in the listing. However it has been repaired. Thank you for your feedback!

Perfect Beach House!

Location and beach access made the house our favorite place to stay on the island. The house is a bit weathered, but to be expected since it's right on the ocean. Unlike the newer builds, the functionality of the home makes it superior to others. Beds and furniture are extremely comfortable, kitchen is fully stocked, storage down below provides anything and everything for fun days at the shore. Couldn't ask for a better home away from home!

Quick Beach Break

We liked the property & the location. The house is lovely and has so many little amenities to make your stay easy. The gem carts are convenient if you need yo make a quick run to town. The one thing I was disappointed about is not being able to see the sunset.

Quiet place to rest and relax

We had a really nice time staying at this home. It was so well located right on the beach and it was amazing to walk right out to the water and to sit on the back deck and hear the waves. The home was very comfortable and stocked with more than just the basic amenities and I really appreciated not having to buy small things like cooking and baking supplies and ingredients. The golf cart was super convenient and fun to ride around the island. I would stay here again the next time I visit SGI. Thank you for letting us enjoy your lovely home!

Property location was great, Vasca? Not so much

Had to call about 20 minutes before check in time to get the check in info. Person who answered was nice, but I shouldn’t have to call in for that info. When we checked in there was a yellow stain on the comforter, trash in one of the rooms and a very loose floor in the front left bedroom when you first come in the house.

We didn't want to leave and can't wait to come back!

What can I say? Our stay here was as close to perfect as they come. The house is great and the location is even better. There's ample space for activities and plenty of areas to truly relax. The views will leave you speechless - we couldn't get enough (we were here during a lunar eclipse, which was awesome)! Being able to just walk out the back and down to a prime spot on the beach was awesome - made setting up in the morning and breaking down in the evening super fast and easy. We love vacationing with our dogs, and this SGI property was absolutely perfect for this. The manger was super friendly and helpful. We definitely recommend this property and hope to return soon!

Our family of eight stayed at Happy Endings in November 2025, and we truly had the most wonderful experience. The home has been thoughtfully updated and offered plenty of space for everyone to relax. We loved spending time together in the large living room with its beautiful beach views, and we enjoyed every meal out on the screened in porch just off the back deck.We chose to heat the pool, and it was absolutely worth it. The pool is huge, perfectly warm, and overlooks the ocean, which made every swim feel special. The hot tub was an added treat, especially in the cooler evenings.We cooked most of our meals during our stay, and the kitchen had everything we needed from cookware to utensils for every dish we prepared.The management company was friendly, responsive, and made everything easy. Self check in was smooth and convenient, and we felt well taken care of from start to finish.We enjoyed our stay so much that we have already booked the home again for next year. Happy Endings is the kind of place you look forward to returning to, and we cannot wait to come back.
