Excellent property in a great location

by Shaina
Our family loved their stay at the Tipsy Turtle. The rental company was so easy to get in touch with. The home was clean and well stocked. The location can't be beat with a great beach access and The Cottage coffee shop a 2 min walk away. The space is awesome for multiple families because you can each have your space, but there is so much communal area with the screened porch and back deck. 100% recommend this location for families looking for a relaxing time!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We are excited to hear that you loved your stay. We hope you come back & visit soon!

59 Seconds From The Beach!

by Emily
It's 59 seconds from the front door to the beach, or so my kids informed me. They couldn't believe how close we were to the beach, so they timed it. We had such a wonderful vacation at the Tipsy Turtle. We brought all of the kids, including our adult daughter, son-in-law, and grandbaby, and (thanks to the nice upstairs space) we all had plenty of room. The neighborhood is really nice, and we walked to fun restaurants several nights in a row. We spent most days at the beach, but we really enjoyed adventuring through the rest of the island. Definitely recommend this location, this house, and this company.
Thank you so much for choosing Tipsy Turtle for your St Simons Island Getaway! We are so excited to hear that you loved your stay & we are thankful for your feedback. We'd love to have you visit Beach Please again soon!

This was a great place to stay. It was clean and spacious. When we had an issue with the plumbing, a repairman was sent out within the hour. Location is great. Close to the beach and walking distance to many restaurants. Would definitely stay here again
Thank you for your review & we are so happy that you enjoyed your stay & that we were able to resolve the issue quickly for you. We hope you come back to visit soon!
