When not at the beach or enjoying the pool area, over-sized TVs are found in the two separate living areas, with Smart TVs also in the four king bedrooms.

Wonderful Oasis

Our family had a wonderful week in St. George. The house was perfect for our family (6 adults and 2 children). We enjoyed relaxing on the back porch overlooking the Gulf and unwinding pool-side after a fully day at the beach. Just a wonderful home to enjoy St. George Island!

5 Star All the Way

This property looked amazing in the pictures, but upon arrival, was even better in person. Beautiful, clean, amd spacing. The owners were amazing and attentive as well. Great communication and they pay attention to all of the little details that make a vacation stay special. The location is right on the beach and the house comes fully equipped. The in ground pool was magnificent and when they warmed it up it was a gamechanger. We had a party of 4 adults and 2 kids, but this place could comfortably house 12. If you stay here you will not regret it. We would highly recommend this property and will be looking to stay here again the next time we come to SGI.

Paradise on the Gulf

We visited SGI to Breathe Easy for our 2023 Family Vacation. Ages ranged from 13-88. We were a party of 8. Breathe Easy exceeded our expectations from day one. The house was huge, plenty of space to spread out and not feel on top of each other. Kitchen was one of the best stocked kitchens I've ever seen from spices to plate wear and untensils. The view from the back porch and side porch are breathe taking. We watched the beautiful sunrise every morning as well as watching dolphins 10ft from the shore playing everyday!! They have plenty of beach chairs, beach toys, and towels you dont have to bring any of that with you. The owners Bob and Sharon were amazing and very punctual to any of our needs. We are already planning our trip back. If you want a slice of heaven and a beautiful beach house Breathe Easy is your pick! 5⭐️'s across the board!!!

Fantastic Family Fun!

The house was perfect for our family of 9. Everyone had lots of space, and you can’t get any closer to the beach. The views from inside were fantastic too. The pool was a great place to cool down in the afternoon, and it was a lovely area to enjoy a meal together as well. We all agreed this was our favorite by far!

Relaxing Island Vacation

Beautiful property with everything you could need for a week at the beach. Large pool with lots of seating and privacy. Nice decks overlooking the ocean for your daily dolphin viewing. Plenty of room for everybody and sitting spaces on both levels. Kitchen has everything you could need and then more. Owners are amazing and even left little surprises for us for a warm welcome! Sharon was very quick and responsive to all questions. Amazing beach front property!

Fantastic

The house was better than we expected. It had everything we needed for the week including beach chairs, towels, beach toys, umbrellas and boogie boards. The pool was great for when the kids were over the sand. The kitchen was well stocked. Beds were comfortable. The location was perfect. Zero crowds on the beach. We rented a golf cart which worked perfect on the island. Communication was better than I could have imagined. We especially loved the extra treats for us and the kids. We will definitely stay here again.

Fantastic vacation

We stayed at “Breathe Easy” with our family and had a fabulous week. The house had an amazing view of the beach and water from both levels. The kitchen was fully stocked, including a croc pot, which we used. We loved long walks on the beach and enjoyed the close proximity to the water. We also enjoyed the pool and floats to relax. The house is large enough for everyone to have their own space. It was clean and comfortable. The gas grill was perfect for gilling burgers, hot dogs, chicken, and even pork tenderloin. The house is centrally located on the island which made shopping at Piggly Wiggly very convenient (only 3 minutes away). Ben and Sharon were the perfect hosts and easily accessible to answer any of our questions. We would definitely recommend this property for your family beach vacation.

Very Enjoyable Stay

Our family of 11 had a great visit this past spring break. The place was very spacious and with all the space everyone had their own area, especially for the teens. Wonderful views and great spot right on the beach. The heated pool was a very nice perk since a few days were on the chilly side! Property owners were wonderful to work with and even left a box of goodies for us for at arrival. We look forward to another visit next year, would definitely not hesitate to rent again. Thank you so much Sharon and Ben for an amazing week!

We made the best of the less than ideal conditions.

Access to the beach was excellent. The property maintenance was poor: Landscaping was overgrown and untrimmed The downstairs exterior entrance way was filthy The soffit and was in a state of decay The outdoor shower is ineffective The hose bib outside near the fish cleaning station does not work The windows are dirty and many of seals are broken causing the windows to fog distorting the view The interior and exterior grills do not work properly The storage box for pool toys is filthy The pool deck needs power washed The interior was generally dirty The ice maker in the refrigerator does not work properly The pool needs painted and the stairs are rusty The description of the property should indicate the downstairs living area is below ground level with poor views, low ceilings, and a small bathroom with its only access through the bunk bedroom. On our first morning we requested the owner to have the pool ladder fixed and the pool area cleaned. Sharon knocked on our door at 7:30 AM telling us that she wanted us out of the house immediately. We able to defuse the situation and did get the ladder repaired but the pool area was never cleaned. In my opinion, this could be an amazing property if it were maintained properly. We will not stay here again.

Wonderful Return Vacation to Breathe Easy

We just returned from our second wonderful family vacation to Breathe Easy. The house is directly on the beach with a great walk out basement. The basement works well for grown children with family of their own. The house is well stocked with anything you would need for cooking, extra beach towels, etc. It's a very comfortable home and Ben and Sharon do such a great job on the little details to make you feel right at home. They are also very responsive if anything is needed during the stay. We will be returning!

This beach property is exceptional!

Firstly, our group agreed the home presents much better than pictured (which is not always the case). It is well appointed, comfortable furnishings; very nice kitchen - private pool, and only steps from the beach. The common areas are spacious and comfortable. The beach was uncrowded, clean and quiet. Our family had plenty space. The homeowners are gracious and responsive. We hope to return!

Breathe Easy will be a do over!

Our family has stayed in numerous houses on St. George Island over the years. Breathe Easy is by far the best house we’ve stayed in with our kids and grandkids. The house was exceptional clean and extremely well stocked. The open floor plan made for a very livable and relaxing setting that was so much bigger & better than we expected. We enjoyed spending time on the covered deck/patio area watching the dolphins and relaxing. Cooking in the amazing kitchen was the best! We usually never rent the same house when we vacation. We’re always looking for a house just a little better than the one before. We all agreed this house is definitely a house we'd love to vacation in again! Sharon and Ben are the best! They truly cared about our comfort and wanted us to have a wonderful time vacationing in their home.

Tons of space to spread out

We had a wonderful stay! Pool was sheltered by house and surrounding palms allowing us to enjoy the outdoors even on a couple of super windy days. House was much bigger than we thought with lots of seating so we could all watch movies together or spread out to read, puzzle, etc. Lower level bunk room allowed my granddaughter to sleep while we enjoyed late nights upstairs. Very well equipped kitchen and bar areas with 2 refrigerator freezers and a wine cooler to hold food and drinks for all 9 of us. We will definitely rent this property again!

Amazing place

I can’t say enough great things about this place! First off the owners are so nice and attentive to any needs. They left us a box of chocolates and a box of baked cookies. The place is so spacious, and I love the way it was decorated. The kitchen had literally everything you could imagine. Probably one of the best stocked kitchens we seen in our years of travel. The view is phenomenal!! The pool was gorgeous and water was perfect temperature. Beds were comfortable. You really couldn’t ask for a better place to rent. The beach is just steps from the house. There were plenty of beach towels, bars of soap in every bathroom, extra pillows, toilet paper, you name it. My only suggestion to the owners, probably will need a new couch as some point, and a couple more chairs for the beach. Although they had 24 (yes 24) chairs at the pool, I didn’t want to take such nice patio furniture to the beach. Honestly, trivial matters compared to how much we loved the place. We would most definitely rent this home again. We loved it! Ty Ben and Sharon for letting us rent your lovely home 😊

About the host

Hosted by Ben and Sharon, Property Owners

We cherish our vacations, too, and understand the importance of having a clean, comfortable, well-equipped home to make your holiday special.

Why they chose this property

We love St. George Island and hope you will, too. First visited in May 2008, fell in love with the Island and purchased Breathe Easy in July 2009. In fact, we love the Island so much, Ben is currently Chief of the St. George Island Volunteer Fire Department. We are also available during your stay, if needed. If you are looking for a low-key, family-friendly piece of paradise, we believe St. George Island is it.

What makes this property unique

Sitting on the balcony, watching the dolphins, while enjoying the sea breeze is one of our great joys in life. Add some friends and family to the mix and life can't be better.
