Gulf views, community pool, 60 seconds to the beach!

Welcome to My Hideaway (OM #J4)!

A beautifully decorated 1 BR/1BA townhome, My Hideaway offers you the comforts of home for your escape to the beach, with modern conveniences at reasonable rates.

The master bedroom boasts a comfortable King sized bed where you can drift into a peaceful slumber as you listen to the nearby waves crash along the shoreline. A large sliding glass door opens onto a private balcony where you can revel in the sight of the Gulf of Mexico or the Apalachicola Bay! The master bedroom also provides privacy from the main living room and a flat panel TV for your convenience. A full bathroom is located just outside of the bedroom.

Downstairs from the master bedroom, you enter into the kitchen and dining area. The well equipped kitchen supplies all of your basic cooking needs and plenty of space to cook up the catch of the day! A dining table and 2 additional bar stools offer plenty of seating and a convenient washer/dryer is available for your use.

Peaceful colors in the living room allow you to unwind and relax into the beach atmosphere as you acquiesce into island living. A Queen sleeper sofa provides additional sleeping room when needed, with plenty of seating to accommodate everyone. A large, flat panel TV and DVD player will keep you entertained on any rainy days or you can curl up and enjoy a good beach read. The open deck with high top table is an excellent place to enjoy your morning cup of coffee as you take in the sight of Gulf of Mexico waters. Dolphin sightings occur often so you might even enjoy a show from the local wildlife! A single cot is available for sleeping an extra person, most suitable for a small child.

Less than two minutes will get your toes in the sand by way of the convenient boardwalk. First, you will find yourself at the gate of the large, community pool with lounge chairs, tables and umbrellas for your enjoyment. Also available is a large, spacious deck with 4 park style grills, a great place to meet other visiting families and share stories of your favorite Island experiences, things to do and places to eat!

A short stroll from the community pool leads you to the soft white sands and glistening Gulf waters of Florida’s Panhandle where you and your loved ones can enjoy the warm sunshine, play in the surf or work on that Florida tan! With miles of beautiful beach, you can wander into the nearby State Park or get lost in the other direction to watch the shorebirds and depending on the time of year, possibly a sea turtle nest!

A paved bike path accessible from the main road will take you into the Island center where you can enjoy local gift shops, restaurants and the great new Lighthouse Keeper’s Museum and reconstructed Lighthouse! Don’t forget to climb to the top and get a bird’s eye view of the Island!

Whatever your vacationing preference, you are sure to find it on St. George Island and My Hideaway is the perfect place to rest, relax and remember the simple pleasures in life.

Ideal for beach vacation with small kids

Two kids (4,7) and two parents very much enjoyed the quick (1 min) easy access to a pool and the beach at this property. Taking advantage of beach rental equipment was very easy (would recommend renting a cart to get items to the beach). Would stay again.

St George Island

I never knew this place existed until I came across it on an Instagram reel talk about a sleepy, quiet beach town, which is exactly what I was looking for. The condo was great. swimming pool was super spotless and crystal clear and only about a 200 foot walk to the beach, which is not heavily populated with visitors we saw a sea turtles laying eggs, crabs all along the shoreline. Water was clean no seaweed overall great experience management company actually let me check in about an hour early because I was coming from such a far distance. Lighthouse tour was very cool too.

Loved the condo and location near state park. But the bed was too soft, so unlikely to stay here again unless it is replaced with a firmer mattress.

Fun in the Sun

Great property with everything you need for a great week at the beach. It was an added bonus to have the beach chairs and towel provided. It made for an easy trip and a lot less to worry about. The views were also great, as we could see the water from the table on the porch. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Rest and relaxation

My Hideaway provided a quiet, relaxing environment for my boyfriend and me to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city for a while. It was clean and well cared for and the beach was maybe a one minute walk. I've already recommended My Hideaway to family and friends and hope to revisit it again. Thank you to Jamie for helping make it possible.

"Grow old with me; the best is yet to be"

We spent the previous week in a popular, busy area farther south in Florida. We loved retreating from the snow birding crowds to the quiet of your condo! The colors are vibrant but relaxing at the same time. It was equipped with everything we needed for our weeks stay. What value for the money to have stunning ocean views and a short walk to toes in the sand. We hope to return to beautiful St. George island and to your condo.
