Love Shipwatch, the walk to the beach needs fix’in

Have stayed at Shipwatch many times. Appreciated how the management co handled our request the first day, quick and as agreed. The walk to the beach is getting worse each year. Now with all the rain, it’s a mess. If my family included young children and a lot of kit for the beach, I would not rent again here because of the wet and muddy walk to the beach.

We had a great time

This is our second year coming back to St Simons but first time staying here. Cute little condo but could use some updating/deeper cleaning. The tub didn’t have any hot water nor would it hold water when trying to plug it. We have a 1.5 year old who only takes baths, so this was difficult. There was stuff left behind from previous guests. The condo was close to the beach but not right on it. Still a good 5-7 min walk to the ocean— the condo would benefit by having a boardwalk all the way down to the beach as it’s very difficult to pull a wagon and everything for a child through the deep sand/small pathway. Other than that, it was close to everything/ the pool is right there and the master bed was comfy. It had everything you needed - starter wise.

BUGS.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the location of this condo, as well as the decor! Unfortunately, all of the bugs that were in this unit put a huge damper on our opinion of this place. There were several types of bugs, from roaches to spiders. I thought the first few we came across was an isolated incident- unfortunately it was NOT! We squashed bugs from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. We would gladly return to this condo if pest control could be implemented/maintained!

Cozy and convenient

It's not easy to find beach rentals for one, but this unit was just right for me. Quiet, beach accessible, covered parking (this matters on HOT days), and comfy. Definitely would stay again!

Reviewer Comments: I have written all of the issues in the handout that was provided to you upon departure regarding the gate code, distance from beach, run down outdoor area, pool age and upkeep, dogs roaming around, unsafe and unstable boards in the walkways, grab bar missing from entry bath, toilets very hard to flush, first toilet not working, no plungers and other. The unit itself was clean, the bed was amazing and comfortable, staff were extremely friendly and attentive.

Spring Break Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We traveled to St. Simons from Atlanta for a short spring break getaway. Ship watch is a great condo development with easy access to the beach and its own pool. There was plenty of parking and the proximity to shops and restaurants is wonderful. Condo #201 was in beautiful shape and very clean. Really nice, well stocked and comfortable accommodations. The only issue we had was that the dryer did not work but I know that this was corrected for the next person, and we were able to be okay with it for our short visit.

NOT A PLACE FOR OLDER ADULTS

NEEDS TO INFORM QUESTS DISTANCE FROM CONDO TO WATER(BEACH). MANY DOGS IN POOL AREA AND MOST WITH NO LEACH. INFORCE NOISE ORDINACE. DUST IN DRYER EVEN AFTER CEANING VENTS, (FIRE HAZZARD) NOT ENOUGH ITEMS IN KITCHEN, ( NO PITCHER) DUST HANGING FROM CEILING FANS, CONDO NEEDS A GOOD CLEANING. MANAGEMENT SHOULD INSPECT BEFORE QUEST CHECKIN.

Thanksgiving on Saint Simons Island

The family group of 12 created unique issues. The two of us had our own condo at Shipwatch. The remaining two families were in a house large enough for us all to gather for Thanksgiving dinner and Saturday football. All but one restaurant in the area we able to seat us at one table or many together. Getting out for sightseeing, shopping and golf for some was very good. It was a wonderful week stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental experience was positive other than loud upstairs neighbors. I am not sure if they were just extremely heavy footed and persisted in moving furniture frequently or if there is just poor insulation. We were awakened between 6 and 7 every morning and that is too early on vacation!

Love SSI

Management was awesome to get us into this rental super quick!! The condo is nice older but has a amazing community pool. We were on 2nd floor and until 2 nights before we left had no people above or below us. The walls are super thin and the floors are very noisy. If you are looking for quiet stay reserve the top floor. Probably not near a holiday it would be perfect. The view was breath taking from our window. Some of our utensils and pots were dirty. A quick clean was needed. Plenty of towels there. The beds were comfortable along with the furnishings. The mosquitoes were horrible. Suggest spraying a little more often.

Nice beachfront location

The location of the unit was great- it overlooks the pool, grounds & beach. It is very bright with lots of windows! However, it is in need of some updating. The carpet is very dirty & the bathrooms are old & just feel grimy. The decor is beautiful & I feel the owner has tried to make it nice, but he/she also needs to give some attention to the things listed. The bathroom floor & shower did not look like it had been cleaned and had a lot of hair. Housekeeping needs to pay attention to things like wiping down the kitchen appliances, cabinets with stuff spilled on them, doors, light switches, etc. It just didn’t feel clean.
