Oceanfront location
Private boardwalk leads directly to East Beach — less than a minute walk.
Fully equipped home
Outdoor shower, gas grill, covered porch with ceiling fans, and garage parking.
Welcome to The Driftwood — a beautifully renovated 3-bedroom beach house on the south end of St. Simons Island. With ocean views from the master suite and living room, a wraparound porch, and a private boardwalk to East Beach, this is the kind of place you'll want to come back to every year.
The open-concept kitchen is stocked for serious cooking (Viking range, quartz countertops, coffee bar), and the backyard has a gas grill, outdoor dining, and an enclosed shower for sandy post-beach returns. The Village's best restaurants are a 10-minute bike ride or quick drive away.

Absolutely loved our stay! The condo was spotless, beautifully decorated, and the beach is literally steps away. Southern Soul BBQ nearby was incredible — we went three times. Already booked for next year.

Perfect for our family trip. Kids loved the pool and hot tubs. The kitchen had everything we needed. Super responsive when we had a question about the lockbox. Great location, walkable to the Village.

Clean, comfortable, great value. The balcony view is a nice bonus. Only wish we had bikes — the Village is about a 20-minute walk. But the beach access makes up for it completely.

We've stayed in several SSI rentals and this is our favorite. The location at The Beach Club can't be beat, and the property management does a great job. Highly recommend.
