We will Return

We absolutely loved our stay. The house was in a great location and central to everything. The rooms were spacious and well furnished . The proximity to the beach gave us the opportunities to frolic in the sand multiple times a day. Though we didn’t use the pool because of the weather/time of year, it was beautiful and inviting. Some in our group said they now prefer St. Simons Island to Hilton Head. We will definitely return and would love to stay in this wonderful home again.

Nice proximity to the beach but not clean

The kitchen was infested with roaches. The walls had food spills and the furniture had multiple stains. The living room rug was so filthy, we rolled it up to keep the baby from playing on it. There were 5 lights with blown bulbs. The downstairs and master bedroom fans did not work properly. There was mold in the master bath ceiling and the back door lock was broken.we will not rent from them again.

Beware!

The house was spacious. The indoor furniture was acceptable. The outdoor furniture had some broken pieces. The local manager was argumentative. The house had german roaches.

Glynn Cottage

This is our 5th stay at the Cottages . We’ve stayed two times each a two other houses . It’s conveniently located to the beach and the pools are an added plus. Cons-The master bedroom bed's frame is very creaky ( maybe broken) as is the front bedroom bed. The hand rail on the outside front porch going up to the front door is coming off the wall / broken. The master suite ceiling fan doesn't work. It’s very warm on the third floor and the fan is needed. There isn’t a vacuum or broom/ dustpan so we couldn't keep up with the sand and kitchen crumbs . There wasn’t any kitchen towels or sponge . Would be nice to have some extra pillows, linens and blankets. It needs to be refreshed as far as kitchen glasses , cookware and would be nice to have plastic cups for kids. Pros- large house that can accommodate 10 people easily. Lots of balconies. Appliances are in good condition as was the air conditioning. Hot water was great and washer and dryer were relatively new. Ice maker worked well.

Find a different house

Location, beach and pool were fantastic. Bedrooms/bathrooms were all clean. Layout/space of the house was great. Nice washer/dryer. Walls, furniture, and vents were filthy. We didn’t sit as a family in the family room bc the furniture was so dirty. There isn’t much deck furniture to enjoy any of the decks. We had family close by and could spend time at their house, luckily. Rent your own beach chairs - the ones provided are in disrepair. We didn’t have sinks that drained in the master and the main level of the house was 91 degrees when we checked in. The cleaning people were still there when we arrived at 4:30 and tried calling the property manager for us so we could speak directly with them. They wouldn’t speak to us and instead texted us. After hours of no solution, and multiple calls, we called VRBO to assist. Once we did that, we were able to speak with someone and the air conditioning was eventually fixed that evening. We rent 3-4 properties per year and have never had issues like this before - I would not rent another home managed by Vacasa.

Lovely house

Stayed in this house last year and loved it. This year it is evident that house needs some TLC, such as grout broken in shower, dusty ceiling fans and bathroom vents, and roaches in the kitchen cabinets. Please put out some bait and remedy this problem.

Spring break fun

We loved that the kitchen, with a large table and island, made for a great space for our chats and games with our daughter, two grandkids, brother and sister-in-law. The crow’s nest outdoor space was a relaxing space to kick back. The walk to the beach was great—there was work nearly completed on replacing the boardwalk, so a nice walk down. The community pools and terraced sitting area was great for the grandkids, with one of the two pools heated. The house had a classic beach house feel, comfy and inviting. It could use some minor updates, though nothing that caused disappointment. The beach was beautiful. The house is a five to ten minute drive from good restaurants and vacation shops. We had just three full days so went to the lighthouse and the grands loved Neptune’s Park. We’ll likely return and would rent this house again.

Coastal Cottages

Home was very clean and accommodating. Perfect for two families. Thank goodness for the elevator as the amount of stairs can be overwhelming for older people. Lots of local restaurants with great food. Overall we enjoyed our 1st visit to St.Simons Island and would definitely make a return trip.

Great, beautiful location, but found that mattress pad revealed old stains after stripping bed as host requested. Intense cleaning needed throughout. Floors needed deep mopping, we don’t wear our shoes inside and our socks were filthy. Furniture throughout also needed cleaning. Pictures can be deceiving. Beautiful location! Management not willing to reimburse cleaning fee due to my reporting of issues upon day of leaving. Lesson learned: read other reviewer comments.

Another enjoyable visit!

We love the spaciousness of this house! House was very clean upon arrival. Having 3 king beds is a huge bonus when traveling with other couples. There are also so many spacious porches from which you can enjoy the sunset views. We appreciated having a brand new refrigerator and washer & dryer in the house too! Finally, being able to use the elevator to get suitcases up to the top floor is very helpful!
