We loved everything!
Loved everything about the house. Especially the kitchen and the ice machines throughout the house. The elevator went to every floor that was as a plus.

Best house in 20 years
We have been coming to St. George Island for almost 20 years and have stayed in many different houses. When we looked at coming again this year, we looked at another house that we previously stayed in but it was booked the week we were coming. And thank God it was because we found this house instead. This was the favorite house we’ve ever stayed in coming to St. George. The coastal vibes, to the decor, and THE VIEWS!! We will be back next year!

Early Bird is a perfect beach house. Beautiful and comfortable. A couple of minor issues that were attended too immediately. Would definitely rent again.

Dream getaway
I stayed at the early bird with friends and family. We had such a great time. Ideally located a few feet from the ocean but also in a safe area. We woke to see dolphins swimming which started the vacation off to an amazing start. The house is so spacious with all amenities. We wanted for nothing. Perfect for families with young kids and those pets you can’t leave behind. We brought our dogs which made our time even more enjoyable. We will be returning and staying here again.

Paradise
The “Early Bird” exceeded our expectations and easily accommodated everyone very comfortably. It is immaculately clean and very large and luxurious . Every bedroom has an ocean view where we watched the most breathtaking sunrises and from the balconies on each floor, we daily watched the dolphins swim by. This is our very favorite vacation spot and perfect for spending leisure time with friends and family.

Exceeded all Expectations
Our family had the most amazing stay right on the beach! The location couldn’t have been more ideal—just steps away from the sand and waves. The gated access and private beach made us feel like we were the only ones on the beach, we even left our chairs on the beach overnight. We loved being able to walk out the door each morning and straight onto the beach. The kids had the time of their lives collecting seashells, playing in the surf, and building sandcastles, while we relaxed and enjoyed the stunning ocean view. The house itself was perfect for our family—spacious, clean, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. From the fully stocked kitchen to beach gear like chairs, umbrellas, and toys, it truly felt like a home away from home. The open living space made it easy for us all to hang out together, and the outdoor deck and dining room were the perfect spots for family gatherings while enjoying the sounds and views. Every bedroom had a beach view with deck access which meant everyone was happy with their room. This was the perfect family getaway, and we’re already looking forward to coming back next year!
