Wonderful Vacation! Amazing hostess.
Our stay was absolutely amazing from the beautiful home to the wonderful beach. We had our wedding here on 11-12 and was greeted with so much kindness from everyone and especially the owner Ashley! She went above and beyond to welcome us with wine and even a wedding gift on the day of our wedding ! Thank you Ashley so much! We would definitely recommend staying here! Amazing!!

Island Bliss -
We have vacationed in St. George since 2001. This was probably our favorite place to stay. Island Bliss is absolutely perfect- comfortable, clean, convenient location to everything, steps to the beach and Ashley is a lovely host. We hope to return again!

Ideal beach stay
This property is lovely, and so close to the beach and restaurants! We liked the layout (bedrooms and bathrooms on the entry level, kitchen and living room upstairs) and the easy access to the backyard for our small dogs. The screened-in porch is a standout feature in this area. We hope to stay here again in the future!

My husband and I absolutely loved the house, we were very upset when we found out a hurricane was about to make landfall, cutting our trip short! Our host was very helpful and kept us informed on what was going on, we will definitely be back! Saint George Island is an amazing place, can’t wait to come back for a longer stay!

The Best Time
Our time at Island bliss was perfect. For a dog friendly spot it was so nice and clean. Perfect for my husband and I, our two little boys and our elderly miniature schnauzer. the home is well appointed with everything you could need. Including extra sheets and towels. We didn't cook much, but the kitchen had absolutely everything you might need to cook a meal there. The location is great, right near everything and the access to the public beach could not have been any closer. We loved our time there and can't wait for our next stay!

Exactly What I Needed!
My husband and I typically end up staying at properties that are way too big and "bougie" for us, just because we like to be close to the water and have either a hot tub or a pool. We always end up feeling ridiculous and spending way too much money. Enter Island Bliss to the rescue. It is literally steps from the beach, you have a partial ocean view, and the space is perfect for a couple or a small family. The property was clean and functional--there was a great sense of detail--plush blankets, an adorable back yard with a clean hot tub, and the property manager even left us a bottle of wine (much needed after a long drive into town). We were able to check in early without requesting it--the owner texted to let us know it was ready and to head over whenever it was convenient. Check-out procedures were reasonable and easy. The only thing I noticed that was off was that the ice maker wasn't working (easily remedied by buying a bag of ice at one of several vendors on the island) and the tub in the master didn't seem to hold water or have working jets (solution: soak in the hot tub instead). Neither one of those issues affected our stay, and we'll probably rent this place again if we come back to SGI!

Perfect fall getaway
My family could not have asked for a better vacation! We have been to St. George Island 4 years in a row and we have stayed at a different location each year. This was my favorite yet! Communication with property manager was easy but we did not have a single issue to report! But it was nice knowing they were so easy to reach if we did. It was a short walk to the beach from the house each day, and the house was very clean. The house had everything you could think of, including a pack and play/travel crib that was very convenient for our 4 month old. The king size bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable also, which is not common for us in rental property’s from previous experiences. The house is close to multiple restaurants that we love (Blue Parrot, BJ’s, Webbers) which made walking to dinner fairly easy. We will definitely consider staying here again in the future! One thing to note, that has nothing to do with this property, is the beach spurs located on the nearby beach access. They were pretty awful so be aware when walking to the beach!
