This location was excellent, the beach was right across the street and a short walk over the dune boardwalk. The cottage was clean and bright. The kitchen was well supplied. The downtown area was just a 20 minute walk. The area was very quiet, not much traffic at all.

Beach Bum is one of the few smaller places in St George, perfect for 2-4 people. Steps away from the beach, refreshing pool, and very cute neighborhood. Good communication with the manager too.

Great family time
Our stay was perfect. Not a huge house, but perfect size for what we were looking for. We spent more time across the street at the beach!
So close and easy to set up our beach spot and come home for lunch, or a dip in the pool!! ♥️

Very low end property
The property sleeps four comfortably. However, in the living area, there is only one chair and a couch. Very awkward and inadequate seating for two couples. There is a common courtyard with picnic tables outside for each unit, but they are all crammed in the same area with nothing to separate them and no privacy an all. This would be ok if all four units were occupied by the same party, but makes the courtyard pretty useless, otherwise.
The pool is pleasant, but there are no tables or shade in the area, so you can't really eat out there and there is no relief from the sun. It's a cheaper rental and it really shows. I would recommend spending a bit more for a nicer property.

Great location
Was nice having the beach right across the street. Just pick up your beach chair and go. The apartment was very clean and the linens on the bed, fresh and crisp. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our fresh seafood. The pool was an added bonus. Was nice to take a dip in after our morning walks.

Just what 2 friends traveling together needed. Great size, very clean with everything needed provided.
Steps from the beach with very nice neighbors. Laura made check-in easy and was friendly and helpful when we met.
Definitely on my list for a return trip!
