About this property

Located on a one-acre lot tucked away between the trees and natural vegetation that only the St. George Plantation offers, sits Island Girl SGI. This cute and cozy beach bungalow that speaks of "old Florida", is perfect for couples or small families! There are 2 very spacious bedrooms and 2 baths. A large living area has plenty of seating and even a game table on which to play games or jigsaw puzzles in the evening! Take in the view and the sea breeze whistling through the trees on the large wrap-around deck. Island Girl will give you that recharge you need! The beach path and dune walkover are the most beautiful on the Island, and only 300 steps. The house is tucked back into natural vegetation for complete privacy and peace. A park-style grill, fish cleaning area, outdoor shower, picnic table, and loungers complete the downstairs area. Approved Fur Babies are welcome for an extra fee!

Multiple "viewing" spots are located throughout the community to visit, both on Apalachicola Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.

There are 2 large resort-style swimming pools, one located just 3 minutes down the bike path. There are multiple tennis courts and a pickleball court, At the very end of the Plantation, enjoy the best fishing on the island at the deep water canal that is "cut" through the island.

Peaceful setting, relaxing Spring Break

The house is located on a quiet street in a very peaceful neighborhood. We enjoyed sending time on the big deck. Home was a 2 minute walk to the beach. There were never more than one or two other families on the beach and everyone was quite nice. The beds were comfortable, nicely renovated master bathroom, new windows. Some appliances were older but functioned fine. Affordable rental in a really nice area. Owners were very responsive to questions.

Quick Couples Getaway

My girlfriend and I took our dogs to the Island Girl for a quick stay. It was perfect for what we needed. The host had wonderful communication and the beach was gorgeous. I think we say a total of 5 people on the beach the entire time we were there. Everything was dog friendly! We will definitely be coming back.

1st time vacation to St.George Island, FL

We had a wonderful, relaxing long weekend and fell in love with The Plantation and Renay’s Island Girl cottage. The privacy and fun we had with our golden retriever Lily was a memory we will forever cherish. We have always vacationed in Destin and Orange Beach but we have found paradise now and plan on vacationing with family and friends here from now on. Thank you Renay for sharing your piece of Heaven on earth with us! Sacia (Letitia), Doug And Lily

Great Beach Stay

We wanted a relaxing beach vacation with our dogs. This place was perfect for my husband and me and our adult daughter and her BF. The house is a short walk from the beach with an outside shower and hose down area, perfect to rinse off after playing on the beach. The beach isn’t crowded, especially mornings and evenings, and great for long walks, swimming and just relaxing in beach chairs. The owner is very responsive and friendly. We would come here again.

Beautiful gateway!!

We loved every aspect of our stay!! Very welcoming and confortable home for our family, and our pets 🐕. The walk to the beach is really short and so convenient!! The games and puzzles were a big hit for our 3 year old (...besides the beach 😄 ). All our needs were taken care of in a timely manner. The host was always available to answer questions or concerns! We enjoyed the shops around the island, the food, etc. Everything was easily accesible from the house. Definitely recommend Sea Palm Village! I am very thankful to have found this place to enjoy our family vacations! I am sure we will be back!

Island Girl Hospitality

As newbies to SGI Renay's Island Girl was a perfect choice! It's accurately represented in listing, great location, short distance to the beautiful beach via a lush nature ridden path and boardwalk! We only dined out once at The Blue Parrot (try the Mahi Rueben!) as this home's kitchen was fully equipped, clean and perfect way to wrap up our fun beachfront days. Thanks for being a reliable and hospitable host Renay!!! We look forward to returning again!

Excellent beach vacation

Island Girl was the perfect beach getaway for me and my mom and our furry pets. It was a great distance from the beach and restaurants downtown. The little bungalow is tucked away in the woods with plenty of shade and privacy. We loved sitting on the porch listening to the waves. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location!

This property has a great location. Beautiful short walk to the beach. The beach was wonderful and not crowded. The place was really clean. Some paint and replacing some deck boards would really bump this up to a 5 star. The inside is so cute and lovely. Our only complaint was that we were without wi-fi/internet during our stay.
