About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

WALK to restaurants, lighthouse and shops! Charming cottage, cozy & bright!

Cottages at Neptune Way #3 is the perfect spot for a couples getaway! Located just steps from the SSI village with shops, restaurants, and the lighthouse! Stroll to the pier, Neptune park pool and playground, or bike to the beach! Spray the sand off at our outside shower then hang out on the shared patio. This unit is one of 3 cottage apartments on one property.

The property is a 1930's bungalow that has been fully renovated and split into 3 cottages with beautiful finishes for a high-end experience and the location is EVERYTHING! Here you will be able to walk 1 block over to the village shops and restaurants and 3 blocks to walk by the ocean and visit the lighthouse. This property is set on a quiet street tucked between a park with gorgeous oaks (photo-moment!) and on the other side the start of the village/pier area to walk to local shops and restaurants.

The main beach is just a short 3 minute drive, but we recommend renting bikes or a (street legal) golf cart for the ultimate island experience. You will love your stay at the Cottages at Neptune Way. We hope to host you soon!

It was so nice to park the car right in front of the house and not have to move it the whole time we were there. Everything we wanted to do was just a short walk away. Perfect location and the cottage was very clean and comfortable and quiet. Couldn’t want anything else.

We had a wonderful stay at this charming cottage on Saint Simons. The unit was excellent—cozy, clean, and very comfortable. The location couldn’t be better, within easy walking distance to the lighthouse and several great restaurants (just a two-minute walk away). The area felt safe, quiet, and beautifully maintained. The weather was perfect, and spending time on the porch was absolutely therapeutic—so peaceful and relaxing. We truly enjoyed our weekend getaway and would love to stay here again!
