Island Vibe (Villa H-5)

Relaxing and fun

Manager's Response

Project manager for the exterior work needs a lesson on how to maintain a work sight. Trash and materials all across the property, not left presentable at the end of the work day. I am a retired construction project manager, my projects would never be left not cleaned up. Rental beach furniture left in stacks across the property, some left and not picked up by the rental company for over a month as I was told by other guests. Not acceptable. Yes it's winter but some attention to the landscaping is due. First impressions say a lot. My condo was nice. Sleeper sofa needs to be replaced, very uncomfortable to sit on with out doubling up the cushions. Comfortable chairs need to be added to the porches, existing furniture needs to be removed, impossible to sit comfortably on. Trust criticisms aren't offensive, guests experience of their stay is a huge asset. I'll be back next year.

Nice condo-Great location-

The beachfront unit was clean and comfortable. Beds were great and management was friendly and responsive. A quick walk done the beach was all it took for dinner at the Blue Parrot.

We had a wonderful week at St. George Island staying at the Island Vibe. It was beautifully decorated and completely clean!! The owners were amazing. We had two very minor issues (a toilet handle broke and one of the tubs had a slow drain... Which could happen to anyone at home!!( And they came the same day.. even though it was late and after hours and took care of it quickly. They checked in and made sure we didn't need anything.
All of the "extras" were lovely and the beds were so comfortable. We loved the two bathrooms with the master having the sink separate. Easy access to the pool and the beach. 5 stars!!

This was our second time staying here.
The accommodations were clean and well maintained. We will continue booking this condo when we visit St George Island.

Wonderful stay for our family. Quiet. Nice location

The condo was great . I was shocked when we arrived and opens the door ... lol it was larger than I thought ! The picture on the site make it seem smaller . I was impressed with the cleanliness. Being beach side was amazing! We will definitely stay here or at least in the same complex again .

Everything was nice.

Our first time renting with Forgotten Shores. Seamless entry. The unit was very clean and had everything needed for a great experience. The location is the best. Sunrise right from the balcony.

We really enjoyed our week in this pleasant villa. Such helpful people made our stay wonderful. The views from both levels right on the beach were awesome.
Lots of stairs to climb, but nothing unbearable, and good exercise.

Great location - right on the beach and close to everything the island has to offer. Property is well maintained. We’ve stayed here several times and love coming back!

The rental was nice. We had a couple of issues, but the property management company addressed them very quickly. The furnishings were nice...very coastal! The balcony furniture was also nice. Kitchen was nicely stocked. Location couldn’t be beat! We were situated right on the beach and within walking distance to restaurants and stores - we never had to move our vehicle. There were a few things that weren’t so nice. The bed in the master was not comfortable. Also, the tv in the master was very small. TV’s are very inexpensive these days, and it was ridiculously small. The worst thing for me was the toilet paper provided. Can you say see-through would be one and the same. I had to buy TP to use. The other thing is carpet in the bedrooms. I’m not a fan of carpet anywhere but on the beach! Ick. Would I stay here again? Yes, but I’d know to bring my own TP.

The description for the listing and the pictures were very accurate. This condo was VERY clean ! Great access to the Islands restarants. The beach was very nice and the sound of the ocean lulled me to sleep at night. I WILL be back. Have stayed on St. George Island a dozen times and liked this condo best ! Rental agent and maintenance were a pleasure to work with.

The whole rental process wants me to play from A to Z. The whole condo complex is old and dated but our unit was very clean and very well stocked. We had lots of rain and spent lots of time indoors. Plenty of room to spread out. Not much to do here on this island. The area is remote, so be aware.

Very good

Very good experience. Enjoyed St. George Island.
Nice clean complex and condo. Two flights of stairs
that I was unaware of was only drawback.

Over all a great condo. There were a couple minor issues:
1- The master shower curtain needs to be attached better. While showering, we had to avoid standing on the shower curtain.
2- The second bedroom window screen is coming loose.

Definitely very relaxing and quiet. Weather was very good. Place needs some updates for sure.

Island Vibe was a very nice vacation rental. It was very clean, large enough for the 5 of us and was in a super location. It is an older condo but in pretty good shape for its age. We real enjoyed the views from the balconies and both of them are good sized. We ate on the island at several locations and had good meals. We also traveled to Apalachicola which is really a neat little town with unique shops that my wife and 3 daughters enjoyed. The best restaurant we ate at was the Pesky Pelican at Eastpoint which is right over the bridge. A couple of improvements that could be made: we only received 1 key, with a family going in different directions at times this was inconvenient. The Teflon frying pans were old and foods stuck to them and they were also warped. Two minor problems! We were looking for a low key vacation spot and Island Vibe on St. George Islland was a great choice. Relax, look at the Ocean, listen to the waves and have a drink!
