This is a lovely house in an amazing location. The hostess ensured we had everything we needed and was very responsive when we were locked out of the house.

This was our first time to SGI and we will definitely come back. The ocean, the beach, the weather, the island, the sunrises and sunsets were simply amazing! This cottage is a stone’s throw from the beach, very easy to walk to and from. The kitchen is fully stocked. We loved the outdoor patio and kitchen, and made pancakes on the griddle every morning. 10 out of 10!!!

Perfect beach cottage! We enjoyed the outdoor kitchen for pancakes each day before hitting by beach. The walk to the beach is short! The cottage is very clean and the kitchen has everything you may need. Will come again!

This place is absolutely the cutest. I stayed here for my birthday and we had a wonderful time playing games in the outdoor living room. The kitchen/dinning room is also a great spot to host and cook dinners together. Next time I come here, this will definitely be at the top of my list.
