We made a last minute visit to SSI and had to find accommodation quickly. This house worked out perfectly and the rental agency was very easy to work with. The home is bright and roomy, very clean, and convenient to everything. We very much appreciated being able to bring our pups with us. The street

We loved this home! It's bright and comfortable, with plenty of space for our needs. Most importantly, it's immaculate. The location is great - you can walk into town to shop, dine, or stroll by the water. We were very thankful the owner allows fur babies to stay and ours had a wonderful time. The rental agency, Real Escapes, was very helpful and absolutely gracious. That isn't always the case and we were pleasantly surprised and grateful. We will definitely return to SSI and are glad to have established a relationship with such a professional and personable agency.

Great beach getaway

Caroline’s was so pretty, plenty of room and in a great location with a short walk to the beach. Easy drive over to Jekyll Island. We brought our dogs along and found St Simons to be very dog friendly. The house was very comfortable and well stocked. The front porch was great for your morning coffee drinking too.

The house is beautiful and in a fantastic location. It is clear the owners care about the property and are working on improvements, but as it is, we loved it. The layout is lovely and we loved that each bedroom has its own bathroom. We noticed there were not a ton of utensils, especially forks, but for our family it was not a problem. The front porch is fantastic as well as the screened porch. The water pressure in the master is heavenly after a beach day. Thank you for sharing your home.

Great Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent two full weeks at Carolyn’s By The Sea and absolutely loved it. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, tucked away on a cul-de-sac with no traffic, which made it feel very relaxing. The neighbors were all friendly and welcoming.One of our favorite things about the house was that each of the three bedrooms has its own private bathroom and TV, which was a huge plus. The vaulted ceilings made the space feel open and comfortable, and the fully stocked kitchen made cooking easy and enjoyable. The location is hard to beat — the beach is an easy walk (less than half a mile), and we could also walk to the pier in under a mile.The Real Escapes staff was fantastic. They were incredibly responsive and helped with anything we needed right away, always with a smile. We would absolutely rent through Real Escapes again when we visit Saint Simons Island. Highly recommend!

Overall this was a great place to stay. A fairly quick walk to both the beach and the village. The kitchen was well stocked, which we really appreciated. The office is only open Mon-Fri, so the response is slightly delayed for non-urgent questions.

Enjoyable Stay

The property is in a great location near restaurants and beaches. Great neighborhood. The house with three large bedrooms and three large bathrooms was accommodating along with the open concept of the living room, kitchen and dining area. Exactly what we were looking for. Great home. The only criticism: master bedroom carpet had a number of large stains.

Great location, comfortable stay for SSI friends reunion

Easily walkable to the main village area and very spacious/comfortable! While we appreciate the cleanliness, our only complaint was the almost unbearable bleach smell upon our arrival that unfortunately lingered throughout the stay. Would be cautious if you are very sensitive to smells.

Great location, dog friendly too!

My husband, baby, and in laws stayed here for a long weekend and couldn’t have had a better time. Lovely front porch and screened in back porch, spacious living space with high ceilings. Location was ideal- just a 15 minute walk from all the shops and restaurants near the pier and a quick walk to the public beach. We hardly used our car while on SSI! We loved being able to bring our dogs with us too!

Nice pet friendly home in a great location

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Carolyn by the Sea is a very nice, pet friendly house. The location is wonderful, close to East Beach, the Pier and downtown. The floorplan is excellent, the 2 chairs in the Great Room are fantastic! Wish I knew where to get them. And the front porch was heavenly, so comfortable.On the down side: the house could have been cleaner, or perhaps it was just it's age showing. My biggest complaint is the bath towels. There were no extras. Only one hand towel to a bath. And the washcloths were frayed and thin. At home, these would be used as rags. And one was so gray looking, we didn't use it. Also, the tv in the Master was not working. It appeared to have no power to it. Our son who was staying at another location tried to find the problem also with no luck. I wonder if a manager checks out the rentals before the next guest arrives. I know that Lighthouse Rentals does that. Nice house but could have been better with a little extra care. You ask about the management company: we arrived on a Sunday and left on a Saturday so we never saw a person. We did not call about the tv or washcloths, just made due. Would I recommend this house? Yes, with conditions.
