Wonderful week
Our stay at this property was wonderful. Beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space for the whole family, including teen grandkids. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, and requests to management were answered and responded to very quickly and thoughtfully. Overall we were very pleased.

SGI 7/24’
This was our 22nd family vacation at SGI and the 2nd time staying at this house in Sunset Beach. Location to beach excellent, beds were very comfortable, AC perfect, elevator no issues. Lacking extra blankets, stove was less than desirable, burners were old and didn’t produce enough gas to prepare family meals timely. Lacking good knives, and bowls. Nothing major but would help to know for the next family on what to bring. Tennis court was very disappointing for those who like to play tennis. Again nothing major just FYI.
We had a fantastic time!

We have stayed on the island many, many times. This home was definitely one of our favorites. We love the area that this home is in & that it is gated & quiet. The house had a unique lay out which worked PERFECTLY for our large family. Kitchen was well stocked. Everything was clean. We are already looking at trying to get this house for our next vacation.

Great vacay!
Lovely home with the perfect floor plan! Everyone had their own space and could spread out as needed. The beds were also comfortable. The walk to the beach was easy, and the elevator made unloading and loading our supplies a breeze. Communication with the property manager was always pleasant and prompt. We would definitely stay here again!

Loved Goodnight Moon
We loved the Goodnight Moon property. We had a handicapped man in our group that appreciated the elevator. The house was decorated nicely. The kitchen had everything you could need. The views were amazing of the gulf and bay. The on site laundry was a plus. We had plenty of room for all 10 of us. We would definetely stay at the property again,
