Relaxing Home Away from Home! Pets, Private Pool, Steps to Beach- a rare find!

Sea Gem is a relaxing cape cod style beach home located about midway inside the St. George Island gated secure community. If you want a quiet, serene, beautiful piece of paradise— then Sea Gem will be perfect for you and your fur babies!

There are two master suites, one on the first floor and the other upstairs both featuring relacing master baths that invite you to let go of your worries and settle into beach life. Vaulted ceilings in the living room provide an open and airy feel. The home features hardwood floors downstairs and carpeted spaces upstairs (for quiet and fur babies comfort). Each bedroom and the main room have flat panel televisions with ROKU TV. There are DVD players and a DVD library in case of an inclement day or if someone gets sunburned snd needs a bit of time “in”. Sea Gem has a collection of games and jigsaw puzzles for some family bonding. The kitchen is chock full of anything you could need including both a Keurig and a standard coffee maker. Plus, a local owner a gew blocks away is ready to help if you need anything! If you cannot completely "unplug" there is free wi-fi that can run all your family's devices with no buffering!

Rock away with your favorite book or beverage on the covered front porch, or have lunch on the sun deck below while watching the kids splash in the private heated pool (extra heat fee-available only in Spring and Fall). There is a charcoal grill, enclosed outdoor shower, and even a few beach toys! We have a pair of kayaks and a bike or two for the more adventurous travelers! Your linens are all included and there are even beach towels available for your use.

The grounds are neatly landscaped with beautiful native vegetation. There is ample parking (some covered). Beach access is just steps away, directly across the street from Sea Gem (see picture).

This property was just perfect for a relaxing vacation. Just steps away from the ocean, and with a lovely pool to relax after spending the afternoon on the beach was just what we needed. The location in Plantation was ideal for walking our dog too. This was a great find for us and would definitely like to return. Communication from the host was perfect and check in easy!

The home is stocked with plenty of pots and pans to cook with as well as lots of spices. We really enjoyed the pool. Plenty of space for the dogs to run around. Very short walk to the beach. The property owner is very sweet and informative on any information regarding the island or events going on. Would highly recommend booking this home for your vacation.

Perfect stay in SGI Plantation

Sea Gem was a wonderful stay. Comfortable beds, very clean, quiet location, convenient to beach. Had most of the things you would need for a beach stay. Decorated perfectly for the beach without being too themey. Pool is fantastic. Sheryl is a delightful and responsive host who provided timely information and made it clear that our stay was important to her. A for communication. We will return

We had a great stay with three generations, including a 3 month old. We brought our own pack and play, but also used the one provided at the house. Everything was great and the location to the beach was very easy for quick visits.
