Fantastic beach vacation spot, perfect for a family of 4!

Our family goes to St Simons every other year for vacation and so far, this has been our favorite spot! The communication was superb and the house was so clean! Perfectly decorated and designed for a beach stay! Comfortable, easy access to the beaches and walking distance to the pier. We love The Black Pearl and will be back.

Much needed salt life!

The property was clean, walking distance to The Pier and custom built just for me and my spouse. We had a much needed time away and this location was perfect! The managers were very responsive and accommodating to a last minute booking and calendar snafu.

Labor Day Weekend

We had such a great experience staying at the Black Pearl for Labor Day weekend!! It was perfect for our little family. It is a beautiful and accommodating property as well as being extremely clean, which is hard to come by when vacationing sometimes. We also appreciated the comfy bed! It was in a great location as well. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Unexpected Thanksgiving stay

We did not anticipate spending Thanksgiving near St. Simons Island, and were so, very pleased with the Black Pearl. We walked in to a very well maintained and cared for beach house. Very accommodating and the perfect location for us. We were able to relax and unwind and felt right at home. I would highly recommend the Black Pearl and we will definitely return.

Black Pearl Review

Very happy with the accommodations - VERY clean and everything felt brand new! Short walk to the public access beaches. Could use a few more pots/pans in the kitchen and maybe a tea kettle. Bring everything you need for cooking - salt, pepper, sugar, oil, etc. You could also use a few more places to hang up towels.
