Welcome to Island Sand Dollar!
A 3BR/2BA cozy, one-level beach cottage that sleeps up to 9 total guests, Island Sand Dollar is updated and offers 'Beachfront' views at 'Across the Street' pricing!
In addition to the best Gulf views, the living room offers additional sleeping with a Queen size sleeper sofa and a large, flat screen TV and DVD player. Just beyond the living room is a well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, and laundry closet with full size washer/dryer.
The West side Master bedroom has a comfortable King-sized bed with large, flat screen TV, Gulf views and a sliding door that opens onto the beachside sundeck. This bedroom also has an en-suite bathroom with tiled shower.
On the opposite end of the home are two more bedrooms and a full bathroom w/ combination tub/shower. The bunk bedroom has a twin-over-full bunkbed and the Queen bedroom has a TV, Gulf views and a sliding door that opens onto the sundeck. The beachside sundeck is a great place to take in the Gulf view during the day and to count the endless stars at night.
After a day at the beach, rinse off in the hot/cold enclosed outdoor shower and settle into the shaded lounge area underneath the house with lazy hammock and additional seating, a great place to get out of the sun but still enjoy the Gulf breeze.
Beach access is directly across the street via a sandy beach path. Less than a 20 second walk finds your toes in the sand! If surf fishing, be sure to bring your catch back for grilling. We have a fish cleaning sink w/ hose and park-style charcoal grill for your convenience.

This beach house is really bright, welcoming, and relaxing. The location is perfect, and the beach at Saint George Island is beautiful! We would love to come back sometime and would highly recommend this place.

The Island Sand Dollar was the cutest home for me and my family. The living room area was very spacious, the kitchen was well stocked with all the cooking utensils one would need, and the beach decor and furnishings had all the beach feels that we were hoping for. The home is located just across the street from the beach via a sandy path that felt like our own the entire stay. The outside seating on the deck and under the house made perfect little spots to unwind and relax after a long day at the beach. We would definitely stay at the Island Sand Dollar again.

Island Sand Dollar was the 11th home we’ve rented on SGI, and easily one of our favorites. We immediately noticed upon arrival how clean the home was—much cleaner than most we’ve rented. The decor is lovely, and the home was configured nicely four our family of four. We loved sitting on the newly re-decked porch to watch the sun set and the convenient beach access trail just across the street from the driveway. The kitchen is so well stocked, we were surprised. Overall, we loved this home and will likely rent it again.
Lindsey was particularly kind, courteous and friendly!
Despite the weather, I thoroughly enjoyed my birthday stay on the island--my favorite place to be! (And this house is next door to the one I regularly rented and leased from a friend for many years. I love the location.
The shower head in the master bathroom was wonderful and therapeutic to my back and neck. I loved the decor and openness of the living area.
A couple suggestions: Since the view is restricted by houses and vegetation, pruning the tops of the shrub next to the palm (beautifully kept) would help. The heat seems to blow almost constantly even tho it's set on auto and it feels colder than the temp as if a fan is blowing on you.

First time in SGI. We picked a great place. No complaints. Excellent home for 2 or 4 adults or 4 adults with 2 kids. Quick and easy beach access. We would definitely stay again.
We enjoyed our long weekend away and found it to be just what we thought it would be per the description. Location was perfect. Thank you for having us!
Another great week at Island Sand Dollar!! We especially love the area under the house and the kids love the outdoor shower.

The house was very nice, clean and well kept. The appliances were all modern and functioned well, the proximity to the beach (right across the street) was perfect and my family had a great time. The location is very quite and perfect for a family get away, very little traffic on the roads and plenty of room on the beach to spread out.

This was our third straight year staying at this home. We love Island sand and the close proximity getting to the beach. Our family of six have another wonderful vacation.
We very much enjoyed our stay at The Island Sand Dollar. It was very comfortable and well-appointed for our party of 4. The location is fantastic, just a quick walk to the beach. Communication was also very good. We look forward to another visit. Thank you for sharing this cute cottage.

The property was great. Even though across the street, you could still see the water from the porch
We had a great time on our first trip to St George Island. And we enjoyed our stay at Island Sand Dollar very much. The House was very nice and accommodating for our family. We loved being able to watch the dolphins each morning and afternoon whether from the front porch or on the beach which was only steps away from the house.

Great location across street from beach. Very clean and well maintained.
The property was perfect for my husband and I and 1 another couple. This was the 2nd time that we have stayed at the Island Sand Dollar and was just as impressive as it was 4 years ago. The kitchen was supplied with everything that we needed to cook dinner with. The house was perfect and spotless and we will be staying again. Thank you for listing it and allowing us to stay there. BTW I replaced the batteries in the bedroom & my husband repaired the handle on the toilet. TY again!
The location of this property was just amazing! Steps from the beach and ocean views when you wake up! The property was clean and was well stocked for a VRBO. I would stay here again and I would also recommend to others. There are steps, so if you're not able to use steps this could be a difficult property.

Perfect size, perfect location, great value
My family of 5 includes three young children. The house was perfect for our family size, and we loved the easy beach access! The kitchen was great, the beds and furniture were comfortable, and the hammock below the house was a huge hit. It felt so homey that my kids didn't want to leave! We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a great house at a great value on St. George Island.
