Great location, cute placeThe

The location of the property can't be beat. It's right in town so we could easily walk to restaurants, stores and the beach. We had everything we needed and it was clean and comfy. It could use a few updates like there were a couple water stains on the ceiling and a dishwasher would be great. But overall, great place.

Love this property

We stayed in A unit last year and this year tried out the B unit. Great properties and even better location. Right in the heart of everything on SSI. Janna is a wonderful host, who is very quick to answer any questions or needs. We will stay here for years to come!

As usual Janna, we had such a nice time.

The property is in a perfect location. We can pull up right to the property and not need the car until we leave. The beds are very comfortable and the area is quiet. This is either our fourth or fifth stay with you and we hope to stay again next year if not sooner. Thank you.

Prime location to the Pier/Mallery St!

We loved staying at this duplex! I don’t know if we could have stayed with our dog any closer to the restaurants on Mallery St than this spot. We loved that we could quickly walk to breakfast or home from a dinner out at night after a few drinks. Our duplex neighbors were friendly and also had dogs but we couldn’t hear them from inside the place. I would caution on noise from the businesses behind the place if you’re sensitive to noise (landscaping / pressure washing at 8am on a Saturday, but nothing late night otherwise). I will say that there are definitely places with higher end finishes but they come with a price tag. We will gladly stay here again.

St Simons Getaway

We stayed at this rental for 3 nights. It was very convenient to many attractions such as dining and beaches. The site rental displayed pictures of both sides without identifying which one it applied to. We stayed in B which was not as modernized as the A side particularly in the bathroom. It definitely needs some TLC.

St Simons Respite

This is a great property! Not updated but totally comfortable and relaxing. The proximity to the Pier Village and all it offers, while still being quiet and out of the way, was amazing. Our schnauzer loved the fenced yard and we felt good that he was secure when out alone. Only one minor issue, the outdated televisions, will not keep us from returning.

A Little Slice of Heaven

They really thought of everything including a rack in the bathroom to hold your many toiletry bags. We felt right at home, including our dog, who particularly enjoyed the large fenced in area. The location is perfect for just about anything - pier, beach, restaurants, live music, dog park, human park, bike and cart rental. Very were very pleased with the cleanliness of the place and how quiet it seemed dispute being in all the action. We will be back - thank you for having us!

Just what I needed!

This property was fantastic!! The unit was clean and very quiet. It's a duplex, and I was surprised I didn't hear my neighbors. Throughout the booking process, Janna was very timely in her communications, and working with the property manager once on SSI, Hodnett Cooper, was a breeze! The location...well it just doesn't get any better! Once we unpacked the car, we walked everywhere! I will absolutely book again!

Summer 2022

The property is in a great location, walking distance to just about everything but also secluded in it’s own space which is nice. The kitchen was well equipped. We enjoyed the property and the patio area. The only two negatives I’d mention that wouldn’t prevent us from staying there again but others may want to know. The air didn’t work too well, would only cool the unit off to about 75 but with fans (they have one in every room) we managed. Also, the TVs are pretty old and on the smaller side, we didn’t watch too much TV because we were on vacation but thought some would want to know. Again, overall a great place, I would- probably book it again.

Cat friendly in center of the action

My wife and I have stayed here previously. It is always neat, clean and well appointed. Nice private courtyard area with deck and grill. Owner is friendly and keeps good communication. Super comfortable mattress. Cat friendly. Could not be more convenient to all village shops and restaurants. You can walk to everything in five minutes. We will be back. Thank you!

Great house, great location, great service

I really enjoyed my time at this VRBO. The owner was very communicative and supportive prior to my check-in. The property management staff was very kind and friendly. Upon arriving at the VRBO everything was wonderful. There is a great outdoor area with a fence for my dog to roam. The house stayed cool with the AC and cinderblck foundation. Location was within walking distance from many bars, restaurants and the Pier area. All around great vacation and if I ever come back I'll try to rent this condo again.

Well needed

Well needed trip but seemed too short! Definitely will be planning another visit, a longer visit! Loved the location, we rented a golf cart and could easily be from the house to the beach in minutes. Loved the privacy fence in the yard, it was so peaceful to be able to sit outside and let our dog roam around the yard. The house was cutely decorated, amazing book collection on a beautiful bookshelf in the living room. I don’t have one bad thing to say about this property or the host, she is just as amazing as her rental property!

About the host

Hosted by Janna Mansker

As native Atlantans, we have always loved the Georgia coast and both grew up vacationing on St. Simons Island. We have wonderful memories of spending GA/FLA game weekends here, taking trips with our extended family and friends, and bringing both our children down for their first beach experiences. In spring of 2013 were visiting for spring break and stayed in Two if by Sea for the first time. We were immediately drawn to this unique home and its fantastic location in a neighborhood we've always loved. Noticing the property was for sale, we contacted the owner and the rest is history!
